A friend of mine sent me this picture she wants me to find these fabric so I can then make her sister or neice or someone a wedding gift that is for June or July. Its not a huge deal getting it done, the problem is finding these fabrics. I have no information to go off of other than she found these in different quilts online and saved the picture. I told her she was crazy (she is a really good friend) but that I would try! lol So here I am, trying to name these fabrics.

Thank you for any help!

Well, the white is an easy find! lol
Sorry, I don't have ANY of those prints.
I'll bet they are an older print but I'm sure maybe someone might have something either the same or similar.
Good luck!

I'd tell her to go find the fabric herself.

Since the quilts she found the fabrics in are very probably Chinese made quilts it's not real likely you'll find the exact fabrics any where in the U.S.

I say you and her go to the fabric store and pick out something. Its not like you're repairing a quilt so you don't need an exact match... Just something she likes.

If she can give you the websites, you could go and look at them and maybe get some help that way.

Otherwise, I'd start at your LQS and try to find something close.

Both of you can go to a quilt shop. Take the pictures along and look for the closest match.

ok so everyone is thinking the same thing I was, she is out of her mind! lol At least I tried. Right? Like I said I would.

I did ask her were she found the fabrics (because I was not going to even attempt if it was on chain store quilts) and she said it was actually quilts like we here make mo mass production made in china sold in chain stores stuff. lol I think I will just drag her along this weekend to the fabric shop.

Thanks again everyone!
