I am always looking for light fabrics with movement. Something fluid, non static. In several color ways, white off white, beige, tan.

More guy stuff, not just sports and hunting/fishing. Other hobby related themes...photography, bicycles as well as motorcycles, antique and vintage cars & trucks...oh and I've been looking for something with pine cones for a friend.

More mostly white backgrounds with smallish dark prints. Classic looking, not cheapy looking flowers. Several dark colors..black, dark blue, dark brown, aubergine.

And how about an aubergine line...very dark purple with contrasting colors.

I've always loved the Laurel Burch prints. I'd love to see some prints with fantasy birds, butterflies, and florals.

And small gingham checks are very difficult (for me) to find in 100% cotton - they're so wonderful for "girly" quilts.

I'm biased. I'd like something "hard science--y" not just biology/animal related. Chemists and Physicists are people too (well sort of, anyway). Maybe with pairs of goggles? Or atoms? Test tubes, etc. Computers, or my new son-in-law's thing, electrical circuits and circuit boards (which is kind of cool because they can be really geometric and colorful)?

I like flowers but my guys are not really excited about them and they aren't into hunting.

I would love to see dog breeds, but each individual. Put all the Welsh Corgis on a fabric by themselves. Put all the Beagles together. I would LOVE to buy fabric with just the breeds I love best.

I have looked for truck fabric. My son is a trucker and wants a quilt with eighteen wheeler trucks on it.
