    This is just an informational post... for anybody who doesn't know, Shamash & Sons got out of the business of selling fabrics to the LQS market a couple of years back. (They still do print a few designs, but just for the chain stores.) Some of their designers re-grouped as "Elizabeth's Studio" so if you liked the novelty prints by Shamash you should check out what Elizabeth's Studio has.

    They have some wonderful nature prints and the designs by Christian Riese Lassen (Mystical Ride, Children of the Sea) are out of this world!

    Beautiful panel! My SIL loves dolphins. I'd like to buy a couple of panels and make an attic window quilt for her.

    Wow! Gorgeous prints. On the Elizabeth's Studio website, click on the Distributors. It looks like you can order from them. I followed one distributor website through, and you can order most of the fabrics from there.

    The distributors won't sell retail quantites; they'll only sell you full bolts.

    To find retail sources, the simplest way is to just type "Elizabeth's Studio fabric" into the search box at google (or your favorite search engine) and see what comes up, and follow the links from there.

    And... I think I may have confused you... the Elizabeth's Studio lines ARE available at LQSs. Just the Shamash ones are not.
