• You can make the exact fabric you need for a particular project.
• Even if it’s not the exact match – odds are good that you’ve still created a really cool piece of fabric!
• I’m a control freak.  If I can make it myself, I’m a happy camper
• You can transform an ugly piece of fabric into a usable one – paint, dye, bleach and more are great ways to “upcycle” fabric.
• It’s thrifty!  If you don’t have to go out and buy more fabric, you’ll save $$$ by using fabric from your stash.

• Why says you won’t use those high school color theory classes?  You’ll learn a lot about how color works by creating your own prints.
• You’re pretty much guaranteed that no one will have the exact fabric that you do.
• Worried about using a licensed print in a project for sale?  Making your own fabric prints ensures that you won’t have any copyright hassles.
• Want to use a particular kind of fabric in a project, but can’t match the color to the fabric type?  Dye it yourself!
• My final reason?  It’s just waaaay too much fun.
