    Default Sew Excited!!

    I think I finally have enough Alexander Henry fabrics in my possession to make an exclusive AH fabric quilt front, border & backing!!! There will be no other fabrics but his in it.
    I am also thinking I may take the selvedges from the fabrics I use and sew them on the back of the quilt....what do you all think about that idea?

    Sounds like fun. What fabrics are you using and what pattern?

    Heather,
    I am using a lot of different fabrics ranging in production date from 1993 to this year I have not decided if I want to do it with a large tumbler or a star or the Buzzard's roost block so I can showcase his prints...

    The only fabrics I've ever used exclusively in one quilt are the St. Jude fabrics. Made a Kaye Wood 6-hour quilt with it.
