    A beautiful choice I saw those & the blues too. Look forward to seeing what you get around to making with them. The blues remind me so much of when I lived on the Dutch/German border.

    I saw some beautiful Quaker fabrics that I had just bought from The American Patchwork stall at the latest Quilt Show in Malvern that I went to for half what I paid - they don't ship over here to the UK so that was a lucky escape. LOL

    That will look beautiful gaigai. They are so pretty reds and whites.

    Did this in EQ and it can be done with the 1 yard of each that I got. The center medalion is 48". I find it impossible to get the fabric scale right in EQ so you can't tell that the large pieces around the center (before the white) are the toile. The white is a white-on-white damask.

    Oooh, I can't wait to see it finished. I have to go to Whittle's site right now and get mine before it's all gone! BAD PAM! :P

    I like reds, brunettes, blondes. :lol: Oh, you were talking about the lovely fabrics. :oops:

    Can't wait to see what you make from it. I'm sure it will be wonderful.
