I hope you're asking about the main flowered fabric...that's the only selvedge it looks like I kept. It's Sophisticate #2464, by Ro Gregg. Northcott.com has it here:http://www.northcott.net/?sid=2&layo...89&colorid=640

Actually, looking at that page, the bottom/handle fabric is #2470. And if I'd found #2468, that would have been the lining! Oh well.

HTH!

Can an individual purchase from that link or do you have to be a retailer? Where else would I find that particular fabric. Any site I have gone to with Ro Gregg fabric listed does not have that specific piece of material. Thanks for any help.

Honestly, I don't know-that's just the first link I found when I googled. They've got an email link on their 'contact us' page; you might email them and ask.

I decided I liked the colorway too much, so I went poking around, and found it by the yard at Miller's Dry Goods, here: http://www.millersdrygoods.com/categ...te-by-Ro-Greg/

Happy shopping! :-D

OK, now that I have ordered the fabric...I need to order a patern...for those who have made them which pattern do you like better, the regular tote pattern or the min-bow tuck?

I dunno, but I'm about to find out. The bow tuck is a nice bag, but way too big (for me) for an everyday purse. I've ordered the mini; when I'm done with it, I'll post a side-by-side comparison shot. My understanding is that other than size, they're identical.
