connecting threads fabric
 
Wow, just got an e mail of the new line of Red fabric at CT. It is beautiful, I'm drooling

Quilty-Louise 01-09-2013 12:35 PM

Oh don't you know it!!

I was laying in bed last night looking at my new CT catalog, and my
husband told me that it was unbecoming of me to be drooling that
way.

He calls magazine or catalog no matter how big or small it is that
comes in the mail my "quilting porn" LOL. He is so funny at times.

I WANT several yards of the Rhapsody of Red collection.

I saw them too. I love them, but I told myself not to buy anymore until I've used up the last order. I'm trying to figure out how to fool myself.

I just saw the new catalog at our quilt group today, love the RED's....Think they will last way past Valentines day also...

I have to admit , they caught my eye... and I keep going back and looking and pondering.

My friends and I call fabric .... Quilter's Crack! We have to touch all the fabric and there is no such thing as a quick "in & out" trip to the fabrc store!

I agree so pretty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Spudgm 01-09-2013 02:42 PM

I agree it is very pretty, I love Connecting Threads....

DustyroadsandSarah 01-09-2013 03:44 PM

If you're new to quilting you have to check out Connecting Threads. The quality of their matierial is superb!

This is so funny! I just opened up the quilting board just to start a topic about the gorgeous red fabric in the new Connecting Threads catalog! I just LOVE each of those reds! I love all the Connecting Treads fabric, but those are extra gorgeous!

Caswews 01-10-2013 08:13 AM

I received mine as well and have a granddaughter who loves RED, so maybe an entire red quilt from CT might be in her future !LOL So pretty for sure

Evie 01-10-2013 08:19 AM

Yeah, when I saw the cover of CT's new catalog I told my sister fabric manufacturers have got to stop making red and black fabric collections. She said, "Why? Those look pretty nice." Well, that's the problem! I have to get through my stash before buying more, right? :(

nygal 01-10-2013 08:21 AM

I like some of them too. I am looking forward to what ever else they will be coming out with in the near future too.

Evelynquilts 01-10-2013 11:14 AM

I agree...they are so pretty !!!

JoanneS 01-10-2013 01:55 PM

By the way, the reds that are in the email are NOT in the catalog! It's a whole different level of red. Now that I know how much everyone loves them, I may have to buy before they're all gone. I've never made a red quilt before, but hmmmmmmmmmmmm

Grama Lehr 01-10-2013 02:11 PM

I don't even like RED, but there I was, looking and dreaming over those pictures!

kcferrel 01-10-2013 03:09 PM

I agree... Beautiful... Have to get me some. Guess I better hurry, sounds like we all love it!

I have two credit cards sitting between the keys on this keyboard. I surely am in trouble now.

Joanne, what do you mean by a whole different level of red? I thought they were the same?!? Also, which one do you like best?

JanieH 01-11-2013 02:04 PM

I love "quilt porn". That really says it. What a great sense of humor your husband has.

Same question! I just ordered the fat quarter asst. Loved the colors. Deep reds and not so orangey! I tried all day yesterday to order them and it never would take my order. I think their site was down or something.....but got it through today! I am like Grandma Lehr..I don't really like red but those are gorgeous! Can't wait for them to come. Also, ordered a beautiful blue collection from the American Quilting society ad. ummmm, maybe red, white and blue??

mjhaess 01-13-2013 08:25 AM

I love the line....Will probably buy some for my stash....

jojo47 02-15-2013 09:02 PM

I, too, love those reds! I try to stop myself from more fabric aquisition until I've got some of my yardage used...Yeah, famous last words! :)

zennia 02-16-2013 03:17 AM

Going to check these out. Red is a color I do not have much of in my stash.

Central Ohio Quilter 02-16-2013 12:33 PM

If you are going to check them out, you had better hurry! I think they have already run out of most of them

berryberry 02-19-2013 11:20 AM

I haven't purchased from them before. Can you tell me about their fabric? I like a soft, thick almost flanel feeling material. My favorite line is Elizabeth Studios, but my local quilt store is charging $14 a yard so I'm going to have come up with some other favorites.
