:-D Hello and a belated welcome to the forum from Scotland :oops:
I think someone else asked more or less the same thing, it really is not a silly question. The other girl was from the UK I think, from what I can remember I think the answer was that of course 'home grown' fabric would be nice but anything goes so long as it follows the normal rules of being 100% cotton for instance. I've been to Australia and I know you have some really special designs that we can't get outside the country so maybe something like that would be nice. I have seen some Aboriginal designs over here for instance but they are few and far between. I'm looking for designs with maybe a Scottish flair if I can but I think that I speak for the majority of quilters when I say, all fabric is good fabric. :!: :lol:
Hope this helps a bit, I'm jealous of your situation with your children, I know how lucky but also tired you must be. I had our four children within four years, they are all young adults now and talk about their childhood very fondly. They had a great time, I know yours will too. Just enjoy it :thumbup: :roll: 8-)
Take care,
Sue (aka rummage) xx
Hi Sue,
4 in 4 years- holy heck! I thought I was busy :D
I know I will look back fondly - but my 3 month old still wakes twice a night for a feed so I am just in a constant daze :-D
PS - I've travelled and lived in many different parts of the world and I would have to say scotland was my favourite place of all. Especially the Isle of Skye and the highlands. Just amazing and picturesque! The otters!
Okay - I will join in then and I will try and find some fabric with aussie flavour!
