    THANKS EVERYONE!!!!!

    OK We found some fabric on this website. She likes and it is 20% off. Now we need a pattern for FQ. The fabric she choose is from
    Moda Martinique

    I love that Martinique fabric y'all picked out. I have some yardage of it as well, waiting for a project some day. It's going to be beautiful, please show us pics when done!

    I am working on a quilt with that fabric. I fell in love with the colors and the design. I ended up doing a D9P and love how it turned out. There is a beautiful designed for that collection, but it looks way above my skill level. I did see it done at a quilt shop and I may have to try it. The top is done and ready to be quilting, so I am practicing before I tackle the whole quilt.

    You will love working with the fabric, it is gorgeous and lush.

    I think I have the same taste as your daughter, because I love those fabrics as well. Good luck with it, and don't forget to post photos!

    www.shabbyfabrics.com Jennifer Bosworth. She carries the most exciting fabrics for the shabby chics. I think I have paid her rent on several occasions. But shr does have some stunning fabrics $9'50 a yard aapears to be the new rate now. But I have gotten some of her fabrics and I didn't want to use them as they felt so rich and wonderful. But now I'm spoiled. There are many others that carry some of the same fabrics and if you can a couple they might have it as much as $1.00 cheaper. But then she end up jumping around to match it. As for patterns, wow she has some stunning patterns. Worse can happen you go into her website, drool all over your keyboard and then think, naaaah I'm gonnsa need more then I can possible afford. But it's a nicve place to look.
