What to Look For
Check the scale of the motif first. Small tossed prints read as texture in patchwork, while larger conversational prints shine in bigger cuts. Also look at the fabric type: quilting cotton is best for crisp piecing, and softer weights drape better for garments. If you plan to fussy cut a motif, pay attention to its direction.
