Hi Guys, I got the Pirate fabric from H of P over the weekend and it is great! The pirates look a lot like the one from the movie and the one that I thought looked the Captain Jack Sparrow is just perfect! I got the SMDGD's measurements from DD and will probably start the sun dress next week. I'm not sure how this would work in a Pirate quilt -- all of the design segments are fairly large -- maybe 12" squarish. It looks like there are two large design groupings and either would make a great center panel. You could also fussy cut the fabric to show the pirate faces or the different pirate or shoreline elements in the quilt -- treasure chest, gold "booty", swords, whale, octopus, crab, plants, etc. It's very nice fabric, too -- made by Alexander Henry. Has a nice weight to it and a smooth hand. I will probably keep some once I get the dress finished, R might desperately NEED a pirate quilt -- LOL! If I have any leftovers, I will post here to see if anyone is interested. CiaoMeow >^;;^<
