Question: How do you ladies colour co-ordinate your fabrics so beautifully and so fast. I have a whole lot of fabric and I don't know what to do with it. I just love all you ladies' choices. Will post when I have figured how to from the cell.
Enjoy your day. I am off to do some baking for Christmas. Mainly Greek biscuits and Scottish shortbread. all simple to bake but oh so yummy and fattening!!!!!! :O) ciao ciao

Use those to choose your colors since those are the ones that the fabric manufacturer used to make the fabric. :) Hope that helps!

Oh my goodness that sounds sooo easy. Thanks for the great help. So all I have to do is bring the fabric and the selvage with the colours and try and match all the other fabrics. Yeah that is great help. BTW I use the selvages to make pot holders, mug rags etc.... they are so much fun.
Finished all the baking now I am off to sewing room and finish quilting Christmas stockings for my two grandaughters (they get a new stocking every year!!!) Bit late this year.
So excited to start the mystery. The best part is that noone is going to chase me to finish in a hurry.
thanks once again ciao ciao
