I'm making some box cushions with welting and I ordered some fabric online that turned out to be something a little different than was advertised. It looks great for what I wanted but it's stretchy in one direction. It isnt stretchy on the bias so I wouldn't have any problem with the welting, but I'm a little concerned when I have to sew around the corners and pull on it.
Is there any chance I could use this fabric and it look good in the end? The seller told me I could return it for a refund if I choose.
Thanks for any advice.

@WEHart , you are going to have to sew a strip and determine this for yourself. Your foot, tension etc... are going to be set different than mine. It may look great after you sew it on your machine and subpar after I sew it on mine.
