fabric folding

Hello everyone!  I've been doing a little fabric folding, thanks to my most recent book purchase, Rebecca Wat's aply named 'Fabric Folding.'  It was a great deal of fun and not nearly as difficult as I thought it would be.  I also indulged in fabric folding of a different sort as I finally managed to get my fabric stash organized.  Everything is neatly folded and stored on one shelf, which means I don't have nearly as much fabric as I had orginally thought!  :-)

Enjoy!

I really liked the flowers shown on the book's cover and thought I'd give them a try.




My fabric choices, I used a 6 inch batik square for each flower.  Once folded they measured 3 inches with seam allowance.

 

This is the only photo I thought to take...this is after the first few folds are done, just before the fabric ends up looking like this...

 

All done, pretty impressive I think.



Another example of fabric folding, displayed at my LQS.



Here's my whole stash, looking very organized and well, not all that big really.  I really do think a shop hop is in order!
