I love your bright, fun dots quilt! Good use of colors and pattern! I have an under the bed box of cat fabrics that just make me laugh. I rarely cut into one. They're therapy. Then there's the box of B&W's, the box of batiks, two boxes of children's prints, etc. etc. I need to stay out of quilt shops and focus on sewing.

I have a few themed sets of fabrics I keep adding to my stash: Laurel Burch; cowboy/Indians/Roy Rogers;Elvis;sewing themed fabrics (I have a quilt with over 70 different sewing prints in it); Route 66 along with some cars and motorcycles. I think that is all.

Love all the dots in your quilt. Thanks for sharing.

WOW!! I love that quilt. What a fabulous way to show of theme fabrics. I go in streaks it seems with themes. But I do love to collect the Alexander Henry Hunky guy fabrics when I find them! They wouldn't make up nearly as cute as the dots do in this quilt though!:rolleyes:

What a beautiful and bright quilt. I've always loved to collect batiks, almost any color, although I think I now have enough of different colorways in blues, purples, etc. batiks to make a Boston Commons Quilt with a light blue batik as background. When my son wanted an "Egyptian" quilt, I found pattern and fabric at Keepsake Quilting, although like my Boston Commons Quilt, it's still on my "Roundtoit List". I've collected Christmas fabrics (always), dots, then children's fabrics now that I have a DGD and I'm trying to collect fabrics for an "I Spy" quilt now. I thought I'd seen a charm pack somewhere that was perfect for an "I Spy" quilt for my DGD, but I can't find it now. That will teach me to order something when I see it, as someone once said "Quilt fabrics have a shelf life, so if you don't buy it when you see it, it probably won't be there when you go back to get it." So true. I don't know when or if I will finish my "Roundtoit List", but I'm certainly going to try.

It's fabulous!! Love the fabric, love the pattern! Makes me want to start collecting, lol!

I love paisley fabric. I have quite a few, but never thought about making a quilt just showcasing them, hummm.

Thank you for sharing the information on Freddy Moran. I just Googled her and love her quilts. I definitely see more dotty quilts in my future.

There are a couple of quilts with only using stripes in the Confetti quilts book. I'm not sure I wouldd want to start another collection. Although the quilts look so amazing.

Your dots are very pretty!! I also like dots to add to a kids quilt,I think of them as happy!! My western fabric collection is growing, & so is my paisley collection!! Fabrics are so much fun!!!!

You are an inspiration showing what you did with the "Family" of dots. I love your quilt and see a most creative quilter behind it. Thank you!

What a cute dotty quilt! I've found that dots can be great mixers, not solid but not quite a defined "print", either. I use them when I need some backgrounds or extras for kids' fabrics. They work so much better than solids.

I collect moderns-- Amy Butler Soul Blossoms right now, and also have a small collection of "Taza" by Westminster. I collect 30's reproductions and batiks, as well.

Absolutely love what you have done with your theme fabric. The designs looks like a variation to "Thinking Outside the Blocks". I am presuming the backing will also have Dots, don't forget to post pictures when you are done. Just another thing to put on the bucket list. My weakness is leaves, I seem to be drawn to them to the point I don't even know that a piece of fabric has leaves on it but from a distance something drawns me to it, and you guessed it, leaves.

I love your quilt. I don't think I collect any particular themes.

OMG, the dottier the better. I love polka dots as well. Your quilt is inspiring me to go even dottier. LOL I'll have to check out that book. Thanks for sharing. :)

oh my! That is just too cute! Love how you used the different patterns together.

I love Laurel Burch fabric - makes me happy just to look at it -all those beautiful vibrant colors. Strange think is I buy more than I use (maybe that isn't so strange, just a normal quilter's quirk)- everyone doesn't appreciate the colors as much as I do.

I just adore this quilt!! It's so bright and happy!!

I LOVE polka dots too!! Then mottled fabrics, then leaf/vines, then stripes, then novelty, then,....well, you get the idea !!

I love Christmas themed fabrics, and I have a lot. I have also started collecting Halloween fabric.

I collect Asian and Amish-themed fabric. Much easier to find Asian fabric, but I enjoy the challenge of finding nice Amish fabric. My first bed quilt is made with an Amish scenery panel.

What a bright cheerful quilt! Love dots...I collect stars and chili pepper fabric.

I am totally in love with Kansas Troubles fabrics. If you have any and don't know what to do with them, you can always send them my way.

Love your dots! So bright and cheery. Most of my themed fabrics are cat fabrics.

Bright beautiful quilt! I also like dots and I am always drawn to fabric with leaves.

[QUOTE=Scakes;5745269](I have a quilt with over 70 different sewing prints in it);

I would love to see a picture of your sewing theme quilt. I have quite a collection of sewing/quilting theme prints and have not found a pattern to use them.

Sorry, didn't mean to hi-jack your thread, I love your dotty quilt!!
