I ran out of fabric!!!!!
I was making a small table runner and ran out of the binding fabric. Does anyone know where I can find more of it? It is probably an older fabric and not found in quilt shops any longer.
|
Try MissingFabrics.com. Hopefully they can help you.
|
Try posting a picture of it on here..it is amazing what some of us have in their stash!
|
Oh no! I hate when that happens :(
|
If there is information in the selvage, you might google that. It has worked for me before...

Sorry for the double post. Told ya' I'm new at this!:o
|
I believe it is a Hoffman "Woodblock" print. Style B674. There is a red color listed as "222" but that may not be the one you need. There are several listed on ebay.
|
using www.quiltshops.com, searched Hoffman Woodblock... http://www.sunshinesewing.biz/cgi-bi...ck5_b674_spice
|
You guys are AWESOME!!! Thanks to you I was able to order more of this fabric. Thank you so much!
|
This can be a challenge opportunity. What other options can you think of. Try another fabric that works with the quilt top.
|
It looks like this one was from the Hoffman challenge of 2006. Good luck.
|
Happens to me all the time. I get so mad at this. Hope you find it.

I'm glad you were able to find more to finish your project. :thumbup: |
I would just try to incorporate something else to use. Try to match the color you need to use. Just my thoughts on it.

I once did a pieced binding, LOVED the look. Not sure if you will be able to see the top and bottom binding.

Isn't it awesome that we can find fabric even when it's supposedly gone. I am getting pretty good at it too.
|

Have you seen the new trick, or maybe old, (new to me) where you face the binding with muslin. The muslin is about 1" wide and the real binding is 1 1/2" wide, if you're using the folded binding that is 2 1/2"wide. The muslin is on the inside and never seen. You seam it together, fold as usual and stitch it on. Saw this in mag or online, can't remember which. Next time I'm short on binding I'm going to try it.

Contact Hoffman tell them ur problem ask if they know where u can get or if they still have a piece
|
AZ Jane, I love your quilt!
