I am going to attempt to make the My Rose of Sharon (traditional with a twist) quilt designed by Bev Getschel that is on the December 2010 cover of Quilter's World magazine. I need 3/4 yards of 10 different white with black prints and 1 fat quarter each of 18 red fabrics. I live in a small town that does not have a LQS. There are only 2 other QS that I know of in a 25-30 mile range, however, they do not have a very large selection of fabrics. What would be the best on-line shop to order from? I am looking for one that will give me quality fabric at a fair price. Any help you can give me will be appreciated. I am sure several of you may be shop owners, however, I am to new to the board to know who you are. If you have a shop but do not sell on-line, have quality fabric and competative prices, please send me a PM and I will get back to you. Thanks. Betty

I see you are in Texas. Send a PM to sak658. There is a shop in Texas with great fabrics at a great price. Not online, but she helped me by emailing photos and I ordered over the phone. I ordered Tuesday and got them today. They were perfect. I posted a picture in another thread.

Betty, I have not purchased fabric from connecting threads but others on the board have, it seems as if they have been happy with it and it's priced reasonably. You can google it. Let me know if you have trouble with that, ok? Kathy

Thank you for responding to my post. I have sent the PM to Shirley. Guess she is sleeping and will get back to me in the morning. Are you a night owl like me?

Good luck from England. I'm always so jealous of the shops and prices in the US. I've found a place locally with some pretty fabrics but our prices are really high. Good luck with finding your fabric and hope you enjoy your project.
