Re: Fabric which has off grain pattern

 Dear enasokab,

This is a problem that will affect your finished work. Either the pattern will look right but the dress will fall awkwardly or the dress will fall nicely on the body but the pattern will look off.

You need to choose which is more important or try returning the fabric as it is defective and this should help you, as usually stores do not let you return cut fabric.

Happy sewing,

Nehzat
