OMG!… have you ever picked up a book and just knew you had been waiting for it? Of course you did not know you had been waiting for it but maybe you had been feeling a little growly and discontent, searching but you were not quite sure for what? Might I suggest that creating your own fabric might be it and Playful Fabric Printing might be your answer?
And here is the cool thing, it does not have to take up a lot of room or even be a lot of fabric. Since I know you.. you are saying “but – but – but , I have all this other fabric I have not used yet”… By doing small batch printing you can infused some life into a stash that might not be making your socks roll up and down right now. Or maybe it would add a spark to a collection you have been eyeing but were not sure what to do with.
In other words you don’t have to abandon the quilt store fabric that you love to also fall in love with the idea of printing your own fabric as well!
This book ticks all the boxes for me, and the truth is I am rather a hard-ass these days when it comes to adding a new book to my personal library.
- Gorgeous printing, layout and color. I don’t know about you, but the way a book feels in my hand is important – so I am all over the nice paper that was used and the cover texture.
- Easy to digest information broken up in accessible chunks for reading during a busy life.
- Formula and resource sheets
- Eye-candy level inspiration with a nice balance of accessibility. You will feel like you too can do this after reading this book.

I have always wanted to try this, but never knew where to start. Hoping to win this book and learn something new ♡
Something I’ve wanted to try for a long time. Just call me chicken, cluck cluck cluck.
Put my name in the hat!!
I haven’t tried fabric dying YET, but this book might just give me the kick start I need ?. Thanks for the chance!
This book would be a great next step in my fabric painting journey. Loved every minute dyeing and painting!!
I have not tried it. It would be great to make that “perfect fabric” that can’t be found in stores.
Wow, fabric dyes would be so much fun.
Only tie dye, would LOVE to learn more!
The closest I have come is printing designs off my computer.
I’ve been quilting for 4 years and would love to make a quilt with my own fabric designs
I’ve never tried it. Might be a way to get that perfect match you can’t find in the store.
I’ve taken a class on it but haven’t tried it on my own yet. Would like to add a little more surface design to my repertoire.
This sounds like an interest I might get addicted to, not that I need another one.
Have never tried it but I think it would be great fun. ESPECIALLY with all the colors.
