If you could only buy fabric from one manufacturer...who would that be? I'll go first.

Robert Kaufman....I absolutely love their fabrics, particularly the Asian Imperial Collections, the Fusions, and the Holiday Flourish Collections.

Mine would probably be Robert Kaufman as well. He has so many gorgeous fabrics. I would have to say that the largest percentage of my fabrics are Robert Kaufman.

Robert Kaufman..hands down. Love lots of others but if I could only have one!

katier825 04-17-2011 02:07 PM

Kaufman!

quiltinggirl 04-17-2011 02:09 PM

Mine is Moda because I LOVE the Kansas Troubles Line!! :)

StitchinJoy 04-17-2011 02:10 PM

Westminster. I love Kaffe Fassett and Martha Negley fabrics.

zipit 04-17-2011 02:12 PM

Kaufman!

Hoffman of California. I love their batiks and Asians. But Kaufman is a very close second. I also really like Kona Bay for Asian prints.

mimom 04-17-2011 02:19 PM

moda and thimbleberries

SewMomma66 04-17-2011 02:41 PM

Civil War fabrics....don't recall the manufacturer.

LadybugPam 04-17-2011 02:41 PM

let's hear it for Northcott!!

almostfree 04-17-2011 02:42 PM

I love Moda fabrics. Also RJR...beautiful colors and prints.

I suppose it depends what "look" you want, and the type of quilts you like to make.

If you want nature/northwoods/outdoors-y fabrics, then South Sea Imports and their sister company, Wilmington Prints, are the ones to turn to. They also make some beautiful florals.

If you are into novelties, Timeless Treasures and RJR have a lot to choose from.

dakotamaid 04-17-2011 03:37 PM

I can't choose!!LOL Way to many beautiful fabrics. BUT, if you pin me down and tickle me I'd have to say moda.:)

redmadder 04-17-2011 03:57 PM

Civil War and Repros. RJR and Marcus Brothers. They had them when no one else did.

lscho4jm 04-17-2011 04:02 PM

Only one?! I think I hyper-ventilated for a second there. Whew! Anyway, since it isn't permanent, I will say RJR.

mamaw 04-17-2011 04:12 PM

Moda are my favorites, but there are others I enjoy also.

:lol: thank goodness we don't have to limit ourselves to just ONE. This is strictly a rhetorical question...you can breathe deeply now ;)

#1 windham #2 moda

normasews 04-17-2011 05:20 PM

I would have to say Moda!

sueisallaboutquilts 04-17-2011 05:34 PM

Moda for me, but it's too hard! I love them all :D:D lol

Ditto. Plus Moda.

jdiane318 04-17-2011 06:25 PM

I like Timeless Treasures and their Tonga line of batiks.

Susie Quilter 04-17-2011 06:32 PM

That's a hard question......and I have to choose just one?????? Let's see......I can't. I have too many favorites.

M.I.Late 04-17-2011 06:47 PM

I don't go by manufacturers as much as I go by the feel of the fabric. If it feels great - I have to have it. (But I do love Northcott)

I am in complete agreement with you . Love the fusions, all the metalics , the Holiday Flourish Line is beyond spectacular.

Crafty Darlene 04-17-2011 06:53 PM

I would have to say Moda, love it!

0tis 04-17-2011 07:07 PM

Moda...

cjomomma 04-17-2011 08:09 PM

I have 1 yard piece of Michael Miller that I love but can not afford to buy anymore so it will go into a quilt for me.

justwannaquilt 04-17-2011 08:35 PM

Windham!

Borntohandquilt 04-17-2011 10:06 PM

For solids: P&B and Moda. For prints: Quilt Gate, P&B, Lecien.

Quiltforme 04-17-2011 10:15 PM

Robert Kaufman not only do I love their fabric but how they contributed to my nonprofit. They will always be my #1 pick!

tmg 04-18-2011 02:36 AM

I don't have one. I like them all.

Krystyna 04-18-2011 02:44 AM

Kaufman, as well!

quiltmaker 04-18-2011 02:56 AM

Moda is my top choice but I do love many others as mentioned above.

[quote=JanetM]If you could only buy fabric from one manufacturer...who would that be?

Kaufman first - always interesting new lines! And Kaffe Fassett....love those bright colors!
