Ever become obsessed with a particular fabric line?

My obsession would be Buggy Barn, I had lots from three years ago, but am down to fat quarters or less. I love the colour blends and texture. And unfortunately, being on the fabric moratorium this year, there won't be any more for a while (sigh!!!)

That's too funny :-P .....I have a number of favorites but Moda has to be my all time #1, Robert Kaufman, SSI, Northcott, Marcus Brothers but not necessarily in that order, plus several others....it depends so much on the designer for me. With all the topics on the board about any one of these lines becomming thinner or less that we are used to because of cotton prices...I feel so thankful we can purchase from members from those older quailty fabric lines and not lose any of the quality we are used to plus at an excellent price. It makes it really hard for me not to purchase from those older collections regardless of whether I need them or not....they are just to fabulous to pass on!

I don't believe it is an obsession but the proof is in the pudding- all of my friends laugh because when I make a bee-line for a fabric it is generally Hoffman or Marcus Bros or Michael Miller - and that's the truth...lol

My friend I sit next to in quilting classes is using Moda bliss, I've been admiring it, but didn't know what range it was, lovely I might have to get some now.
I've been mad about Philip Jacobs florals for a few months, I did think I was getting over it and moving on to Michael Miller, but some of his Rambling Rose in yellow arrived this morning ready to back my quilt and it is gorgeous, had to call my husband to have a stroke of it as its so soft, Hubby wasn't as enthusiastic and replied, but its the same as the ones you already have :)
