Charlotte, I tried to answer your PM, but your box is full. Our quilt shop only ordered for the people who signed up for the BOM. Several other ladies in town are wanting it so it may be stocked in the future.

My thought exactly and the way she was waving the open rotary cutter had me holding my breath. To me it seems like just too much wasted fabric but it would be great for quilt backing I think.

I think it's a neat idea. I don't care for their print choices but that's just me. On their website there are a few more but they are all very traditional. It is wasteful for some stuff but I think it's a nice take on striped or border print fabrics with so many different colors one one fabric. It would be great for borders and whatnot. I hope they thought ahead and the stripes on the selvege sides are 1/4" wider so you can sew them together to form one long striped fabric. That would be cool but I doubt they did that.
