    I also did a side swap with tumrub and got some beautiful fall fabrics. I cannot get the pix to post on these. Thanks again tumrub!

    what a fun assortment! all those goofy prints I love them Bullock! wowsa I just finished using almost all my Halloween prints for table runners, clothes you name I have made it. now I see more prints I might need... argh!!!

    I am thinking we will do Thanksgiving/fall or Blenders/Tone on tones for the next swap. You would be free to use some of each or simply go with one or the other based on your partners request. I know blenders sound boring BUT in order to make the other prints pop you really need a few so its a win win situation... what do you think the other chose is Thanksgiving/fall or Novelty prints. pick one by voting I will check out which way the MAJORITY want to go with. let the voting begin! sign ups and new post for swap will be listed by mid week so VOTE!!!

    It's a fabric that goes from light to dark tones, not a solid color. Here's a pic for you of some of the blenders that I have. I started a new quilt today and am using this turquoise blender with this fabric. Hope this helps you[ATTACH=CONFIG]488200[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]488201[/ATTACH]

    Thank-you Sheri for my great selection of f-Q's. The fabrics are perfect for me. I'll try again to post a pic. So far unable to post. Hopefully the third time is a charm. Nope didn't work. Anyway thank-you very much.

    Jaba,
    Can you tell me the name of that beautiful turquoise flower fabric? I would love to buy some if it's still available.
    You're a bad influence!! I mean that in the nicest of ways...

    Bullock2us, there's no such thing as a stupid question. We can't learn if we don't ask.

    THANKS so much! I do have some of that kind of fabric- just didn't realize that it was called that. All your fabric is such beautiful colors!
