I live in the US but have a cottage in Canada so I would love to get my hands on it. I may be able to find it when we are there but we don't have any quit shops near where the cottage is so I am probably out of luck. Don't know why they wouldn't sell in both places.

There's a link on the northcott site to stores that do sell it - there's one on the Niagara Peninsula that my mom's getting it from - she's then going to walk it over the border and ship it to me from the US. (I'm a recent Texas transplant). Apparently some people are getting it in store, but there's going to be a "media launch" on June 19, for those who can get it. OP, I'm going to send you a PM with some info as well.

I've received my Oh Canada fabric and it is even better in person than on-line. In fact, I'm off to a couple of quilt stores tomorrow to see if they have it. If not, I'll be ordering more from Along Came Quilting as they were fabulous to dela with..

OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHH Canada indeed!
I've seen some of the fabrics in a couple of shops now ... selling like hotcakes, so anyone who wants it, you'd better get to your LQS'!!

I haven't seen all the fabrics yet, as none have carried the whole line. The two maple leaf fabrics are beautiful ... the plains are such a nice TOT crushed stone sort look.

An absolute hit ... and I bet it won't be the first and last of Oh Canada fabrics for Stonehenge/Northcott!

What are you going to make with yours, W4Me??

QOV = Quilts of Valour/Valor

This fabric line was created fro Quilts of Valour, Canada and certainly fits with the Canadian theme!

I believe there's been other specialty lines created for QOV, USA.

I haven't got a clue. Just know the designs are too nice to pass up. I bought a bit more of the moose than any of the others and now, having seen the fabric, will make sure I order more of both maple leaves as well as the dark and mid-tans and, of course, black. :)

Am toying with a sampler idea.

Found a store near home that apparently has ordered the full line. It would have been nice of them to call me back and tell me over a month ago when I asked, and I can't get a human being on the line. So, check out two other stores first and then check them out if I have to. Seems service is deteriorating in a lot of actual stores. Business is poor so they lay off staff which means service suffers and they lose customers. What is wrong with this picture?

Hmmm, may just order from Along Came Quilting anyway since their service was wonderful.

It is absolutely amazing fabrics ... I'm having a hard time deciding which and how much to get. Now if I only knew what I was going to make, it'd be easier to decide!!!

Looks like another online order may be the simpler route ... though you better not wait, as ACQ will probably be sold out in no time!

Yup, the decision will be made by the end of day today, I think. :)
