    Default Help With Name Of Border Fabric In Eleanor Burns Quick Trip

    I have Eleanor Burns Quick Trip DVD and she says she got the inspiration for the colors in the quilt from the large Border she used as they reminded her of the Blue skies, Pink sunset etc.on a trip she and a friend made. Does anyone know the name of that border fabric or where it can be purchased? Thanks for any help you can give.

    When was the DVD made? It should be somewhere on the package. Fabrics only get short manufacturing runs, so if the fabric is more than a year or two old it may be impossible to find.

    there is a good chance that it is made with one of eleanor's own fabrics. after looking at the video online it looks like her lines. i would check at quilt in a day.

    I am guessing that that fab is already out of production,,,but, you can do this with any patterned fabric.....just find one you like and pick out colors/prints to compliment it.....

    Thats my biggest gripe about fabric, it is gone way to fast. I have a quilt that I never finished because the fabric needed was no longer available and could not subsitute another.
    Searched for a long time but no luck.

    Have you put a picture of the fabric you need on this board? Someone might have what you need.
