As much as I appreciate your wonderful offer, I've already switched to a different fabric for the borders and have started cutting them etc. So I don't need the mystery fabric urgently anymore.
But, my! I'm very grateful for your offer!
Edited: Just a side note in case anyone here ever emails Bernatex at their website as I did for the second fabric that I needed. I just got a "mailer deamon" in my email saying the email never got through to Bernatex eventhough I used the address they posted on their website.
I wonder if they realize their email address doesn't work?

Ok Karen. I am looking for a specific book and I thought I would try there before I breakdown and order it online. (Plus I have a coupon :)) You know I am going to look anyway ;)
Glad to hear you found something else that works.

Oh I guess I should have added I have never paper pieced but want to try and do a Mariner's compass on a quilt for my Dad (ex-Navy) for Father's Day (this year I hope LOL). If not done it becomes a Christmas present ;)

I have Traditions with a twist (love it) and maybe the 50 pp stars too.
I don't pp very often because I hate picking the little pieces of paper out of the seams but it sure makes precise blocks!
Have you checked Amazon or ebay, etc?
I hardly ever buy quilt books new. (that gives me more money to buy fabrics...lol)

Have you looked at this link?

I found it interesting since you don't have to pick little pieces out of the seams. I thought I would have a go at it.
I have found quite a few books at half price books and I do get some from ebay and amazon. But since I have this coupon just sitting here and I have to be in the area for other errands today I thought why not?

You can try looking for it online. Search in Google and just basically describe the fabric. I found a gold metallic print that way, one time. It took a lot of looking, but I did find it and got the amount I needed from the shop.
