    Those fabrics are beautiful; are they a particular group or did you match them up yourself? Your quilt is so pretty.

    Thanks for the compliments.

    Most of the fabrics are from the "Dragonfly Summer" collection by Holly Taylor for Moda. I initially found them during the New Years fat quarter sale at Country Treasures, in Chester, Vermont. (We were visiting family.) Basically, I was looking for plum and sage colors. And these happened to fit.

    Of course I didn't buy enough-- especially given that it's a KING size quilt (cough, cough, choke), so I also augmented it a bit, and did a LOT of online purchasing of more of the fabric, which increasingly became more difficult. There's not much of it left out there in plum and sage.
