Checked fabric can be used effectively in a manner similar to gingham. It is, of course, always a great choice for shirts and blouses. If you are wanting to create a country look in your home décor, checks can be used for curtains, pillows, place mats, dinner napkins, or a tablecloth. Combine them with a coordinating solid for bedding linens. The sky’s the limit, really. For fun quilting options, combine a checked fabric with a floral and a stripe or a solid. Fun, fun, fun!
