Hoffman makes such gorgeous fabrics.
Have you seen this collection by Benartex? I ordered a box of FQs - so that I could really see the collection, as the Benartex rep never comes to visit us :thumbdown: , and they are really quite nice. Still deciding if I should order yardage for the shop.

Hoffman also always has nice holiday fabrics. You might like these:

We did order some of the Hoffmans, but off the top of my head I couldn't tell you exactly which ones.

I know some of Moda's marbles are made in Japan, as well as Lecien. Don't know about some of the others. Do you know where RJR,and others are printed and processed, etc?

How about some non-cutesy career people image fabric such as doctors, teachers, librarians, etc? Could be panels or repeating fabric designs? How about taping into the other religions besides Christianity for holidays? Such as pagan (which is hard to find), Jewish, etc?

I did run across this one by Michael Miller, what do you think of this design?

I am searching for fabric with BMX type or any kind of bikecycles on it. I have a DGS that is into BMX racing and would love to find fabric to make at least a pillowcase or maybe a quilt with.
Thanks in advance.
