Nyla Star - Week 1

Nyla Star - Week 1

Pretty fabric

Allllright! It's time to pick out fabric! 

Can I just say how excited I am that you're here? I'm seriously so stoked! So are you ready to pick out some fabric? Sometimes this is either the most fun or most stressful part! But let's make it fun. With this pattern, there is quite a bit of background needed, but you can use either yardage, fat quarters, or 4" squares for the colored parts. Lots of possibilities! Here's a recap on fabric requirements.
Whatever fabric you select, be sure to give it a good press to make cutting more accurate and quicker. Plus, I think it's kinda relaxing to iron pretty fabric. But don't ask me what my ironing pile looks like for clothes. ;)
