    Hey there,

    So we're remodeling our basement and I was looking for some art for my new sewing room. This past weekend my local quilt guild had their annual show and I went to check things out on Saturday.

    I wandered by a booth with a bunch of framed pictures. Most were landscapes. When I got closer it was all FRABIC. It was really amazing. And I thought this is PERFECT for what I wanted.

    Anyway it's all fusible applique, no sewing and it creates a really beautiful picture. I picked a series that was the same picture during the different seasons, that way I could change them with the seasons.

    Anyway you can find them here: http://www.fabricationsbydoris.com/l...-patterns.html

    Anyway I had never seem anything like this before...so pardon me if I'm late to the party! And if you know of more places to find stuff like this let me know! :)

    Those are really beautiful. I saw one that someone just posted a few days ago one here, but I have not seen any at my local stores yet.
