    I've think I'm finally over the focus fabric craze that I've been in for the last few years and have started buying more solids and blenders. I guess I need stuff to work with the big chunks of focus fabrics I have.

    However, I'm not buying much, just trying to use up some of the stash. I keep finding myself pulling out the blues, so I would say that's my current favorite.

    So, what's your current favorite? What are you buying and what are you using up from your stash?

    I sound like a broken record lately. LOL!! But I love the reproduction fabrics. They represent a simpler time in life and that appeals to me.

    OMG - I still love the color green but trying to incorporate other colors - right now I am on a patriotic kick and starting to really love those bland civil war quilts - usually I am a bright, modern fabric type of girl.

    Civil war fabrics. It's not my typical choice, but lately it's just what I want to do.

    I've gone Civil War repro crazy - it took me a while to warm up to them, but once I found some of the shocking colors that were available back then, I've been enchanted.

    Bubble gum pink, poison green, cheddar and chrome yellow, turkey reds, turquoise and purples to mix with brown and grey and cadet blue. :)

    I love Batiks and Stonehenge. I am trying out new fabric lines and colors and making purses has really helped me with this.
