Kennedy--my barn buddy and new quilting buddy :wink: :D and I went to my favorite Mennonite fabric store yesterday. I needed to find fabrics to match a piece my MIL wants a wall hanging out of. We've picked the pattern; I needed 4-5 to match.
Here's what I found! It's totally different than what I found in my stash--much richer and consistent. Good for a wall hanging. I changed the order of the strips and I like the red by the gold. More photos to come.... |

Pillowcases for the craft sale.
I made my son choose fabric he liked for some for Christmas--but I had to twist his arm. 21 year old aren't into fancy pillowcases. :lol: I like the brighter border on the one horse one, but those batiks are inconsistent. I love how the sunflowers look on there. |
What a nice haul at the Mennonite quilt shop (I miss the Amish quilt shops in PA). Your pillowcases are great too!!

Great job getting fabric!
I have that grape one you have tucked in there. The pillowcases are really pretty! You know, even 40-something year olds are hard to get to decide on fabric for pillowcases. Bill wants one for the ship and I told him to pick some fabric and I'll make him one. He says no...just make me one. He'll be sorry! I'm going to find some girly girl fabric! lol |
Wow -- Did you have fun or what???
And I love your pillowcases! |
Oh, I am drooling. Those are beautiful. I want to reach out and touch them.

Great fabrics Karla. I just made my guys pillowcases in things they liked and they loved them.
|
Gorgeous fabric!!!! Love the pillow cases!!!
