What Can You Do With This Tie Dye Fabric?

This page is devoted to helping quilters with some new ideas for using these wild fabrics. Did you know that tie dyed fabrics make great traditional blocks? I created a sampler quilt using   traditional blocks just to show you the awesome blocks you can make with these fabrics. Take a look below.

 

Help Is On The Way - Tie Dye Sampler pattern

I could see that some quilters did not know how to incorporate spiral fabrics into their quilts, so I decided to make a sampler quilt featuring traditional pieced blocks. Except for the addition of a small bit of the blue solid, all of the blocks you see here were made from one yard of spiral fabric. See the patterns, movement, and color changes you get in a spiral design. This is a wall hanging size, 42.5"x 42.5". To make this quilt, you need 1 1/2 yds. of the hand dyed fabric to give you the most choices.

Tie Dye Fabric - Love the Look, But What Can You Do With It?

What can a quilter do with this wild fabric?? The cloth featured below is called Bluebells. (I can no longer produce this particular color scheme because one of the dyes has been discontinued.) Bluebells is just one of the many spiral fabrics I make. You can find them on the Hand Dyed Cottons page.
