I got it on eBay from debsews.
http://stores.shop.ebay.com/Debsews-...__W0QQ_armrsZ1 There are some really beautiful fabrics there. When I decide what I'm going to do I may get something very subtle for a background and something for a border. |
Oh my goodness. So pretty. I love them.

I went to your posted site. Big mistake on my part cause I could spend lots of money there. Her fabrics are beautiful. I'm going back after payday.

Beautiful!
I have some of the red that's there. Got it at Walmart. I do have a couple pieces of the yellow color too! It's really pretty stuff! |
Pam, Shiboridragon.com sells a great fan ruler along with some great patterns for that fabulous fabric and there service is great - quick and very responsive to feedback.

Pam - how about the silhouette of a woman and child carrying parasols or fans, standing in a flower garden? You could make a back view - hair and kimono - so you wouldn't have to worry about the faces. Border the quilt as they are walking toward or are in a garden.
Also check out Kumiko Sudo's books. She has meticulous instructions and some very creative ideas. |
Love them.
