    That's fantastic!!! And what a generous "extra". It is nice when shops cut at least an inch or two extra. Have been in some shops where they take the time to only give you exactly what you ordered. That's why I always usually buy at least 1/8 yard more than actually needed.....guess that's why I have sooooo many scraps.

    This is wonderful !! I just went to their site and searched "dog and bone". I can't find the post where one of the ladies wanted fabric for a dog quilt. Anyone out their that can help find this post would be helpful. The fabric they have at Over the Rainbow is WOW....check it out....especially the first two. What a great backing fabric or you could even make the entire quilt from this fabric. This link will take you right to the fabric. http://overrainbow.com/cgi-bin/Store/store.cgi And, you're sure to get enough fabric.

    It's recommendations like this that not only help your quilting friends, but help out the shop owner. I will definitely bookmark their site for my next purchase. Thanks!!

    I love this shop and have shopped with them often. I would like to more but pocketbook is tight but I feel like they are part of my family. Their newsletter sent out is always so interesting. Outside of the shop they have a farm with alpacas, peacocks, rabbits and recently a new puppy. Laura makes you look forward to the next newsletter to see how girls and Memaw and Pepaw are doing. Check them out for great fabrics, too. They just enlarged their shop so they have all kinds of fabric at www.overrainbow.com

    I Made the same mistake the first time, too! I was alone in the den, but still looked around to see if anybody else had seen. I was not expecting that gay site. I probably should have put that in my first post but wasn't sure how to state it. Sorry for any embarrassment it caused. It sure embarrassed me.

    I had the same experience when ordering from them. A little extra on each piece. Plus they were very prompt. I was so impressed with the first order, I ordered again.

    I love Over the Rainbow! I've ordered from them several times and always received extra fabric. They are very reasonable on their prices, carry the latest fabrics and have great customer service.
