I've got a bunch of Bamboo Velour dyed yardage that I'm just not happy with as whole pieces, as in...to make a back to a quilt, but I think I could pull off breaking it up into quilt squares and making it a top...anyone heard of this? Velour is sure slippery and stretchy...would I be committed after trying this project???

Can this fabric be ironed and washed? Two main points to consider when choosing fabric for a quilt. What about shrinkage when it is washed. The backing will have to be similar so it will have the same shrinkage when washed. Otherwise your finished quilt maybe distorted after washing.
