    Default What is your favorite line of fabric?

    I decided today was the day to start getting my fabric organized. I had read Alaskasunshine's tutorial on fabric folding and thought it looked like a good idea. In the past, I kept all my fabric on the cardboards from JoAnn's. That took up too much room, so I decided to just stack them. Well, you know how that goes; you always want the fabric on the bottom, and everything gets messed up. I ordered the magazine sized boards from Amazon. So I am sitting here folding away, and started looking at the selvage. I apparently have two favorite manufacturers...Moda and Hoffman. Next is Timeless Treasures. And green fabric and fall patterns are winning the design war! Along with Christmas prints. I haven't started on batiks yet...there are a whole bunch of them just sitting on that shelf waiting for me to walk back into that closet and rescue them! What's your favorites?

    I agree with all three of yours. I tend to like bright light colors, more true than gray and Moda and Hoffman each do a good job at that. Timeless treasures I just love the designs they come up with.

    I agree with you too. Moda is my favorite. Then I like Hoffman. I'm not sure after that.

    Red Rooster, Bernartex, Moda. That being said, I've seldom seen a fabric I couldn't adopt and bring home to join the rest of my stash.

    P & B., Moda and Timeless Treasures are my favorites but I also like Robert Kaufman. I seem to gravitate towards them first.
