A lot of QB members buy from connecting threads online.

check out local quilt shops. Take the pattern and let them help. All the above are good ideas.

I bought mine from fabric.com, they had the perfect range of gray batiks for me at a good price.

What timing... I just received my pattern too. I did look online for fabric but I wasn't sure if I could pick the right shades so ended up at local shop. I chose not to use batiks, as they are just not my thing - don't know why, and here's a pic of the fabric I got. Now that I have it home, I'm second guessing the plain solid white. Will the contrast be too stark? I'm thinking I should use someting with a texture or something. Thoughts?

I used Stonehenge by Northcott for my Labyrinth Walk because I wanted that stone look for the walls. Got it from Thousands of Bolts. They've got tons of colors and really good prices. Be sure to show us a pic of yours when it's finished.

I saw the pattern in Davenport, IA at the Mississippi Valley Quilters Guild show. Lots of great fabric out there for this pattern.....Missouri Star is my favorite.

There are a number of Labyrinth Walk quilts in Cat-on-a-mac's quilt album site now, under "Maze" quilts. Check out the "Pictures" section. Hers is a sticky, so it's always on the top. You can see the colorways of several there. Click on "Quilt gallery, Albums". It seems to me that there are only three colors used in these, but maybe I can't see where the fourth color is used.
