No matter what you name it, the quilt will still be fabulous!
Yes, some of the fabric is from Legacy Studios.

I have looked for some for quite a while now, as I am wanting to make a quilt with just hummers on it, can you share where you found this fabric?
The hummingbird fabric is from JoAnns Fabrics by Susan Winget “All a Flutter”, but I don’t think it’s available any longer. Perhaps with a web search you could find some, but I haven’t been able to. I did find this link . . . http://www.springscreative.com/fabri...ic-collection/ but I don’t think you can order it here. Sorry I can’t be of more help. I love the hummers, too, and planned this quilt around some of the fabric I had left over from another project.


Thanks again to everyone for the lovely comments and great name suggestions. I am going to keep this quilt for use in my family room as you see pictured here. I even made coasters with leftover fabrics. Name to be decided on Friday. I didn’t actually like the quilt when I first started putting it together, but it grew on me. I’m not too into scrappy, but by the time I put together all the fabrics I had collected, it started looking pretty scrappy. Now I love it.
