    Default Fabric anyone know the name and brand of this?

    I think I bought this when I first started buying quilt cottons after 2004 when I got online. Anyone know the name and brand of this floral. Flowers I think are sweetpeas/lathyrus?

    Hi. There is no selvage it is a fat quarter. I made this little bag out of part of it to keep a sweetpea journal I made.
    I have been thinking since posting this. I think/not sure that the shop was American Patchwork Fabrics I tried googling it few years ago but they had closed online shop.It is a thicker quality quilt cotton.

    There are sites on-line that can help you! For some, you can send or post a picture, Here is some I found on Google:

    Not sweetpeas, and I am not familiar with the other one you mentioned.

    The flowers look like fireweed to me. I've never seen a fireweed fabric before; it's very pretty! If you bought it a decade ago it might be out of production now, but the sites suggested by Kitsie and Faintly Artistic would be good places to look.

    Stores in Alaska, Yukon, Northwest Territories or British Columbia might carry similar prints, as the plant is common in those regions.

    It's a Hoffman print. Thanks to Jennifer23 for recognizing the flower, I googled "fireweed fabric" and found a few links. You might be able to purchase a yard or two.
