    I am Snoopy's #1 fan! Have been collecting Snoopy stuff since I was 10 years old. Can't wait to see the new fabric. I've been making a different quilt for basicly each month to hang in my living room. So far I have Easter, St.Patricks Day and Valentines. Need to get on the fall and Halloween before they pass me by. I've even got a bit of the rare Pilgrims fabric I'll be making a quilt with. LOVE SNOOPY!!!

    They are very cute! There is a border stripe, one with the characters all tossed (either pale blue or pale green background), Snoopy on either red or blue, one with the chacter portraits in squares, a coordinating dot, and then one that makes it REALLY fun: it's a black zigzag stripe on a yellow background, just like Charlie Brown's shirt. Such a simple design but it adds so much to the group! There will be a free project pattern to make a quilt using these, too.

    Thanks for the inside scoop! No price increase is always good news :)

    At least I feel that this is justification in the price hike. Knowing why, and what for adds patience for me. Understanding the 'inside scoop' is worth it's weight in gold. Thanks

    Kudoes to Kaufman for avoiding the Chinese market; how I wish the rest of the US market could/would do so. (These people kill their babies with melamine in baby formulas and milk due to poor/non-existent quality control, for heavens sake! :shock: )
