Jacquie,
Do you want me to send you some of the "Fruit Butts" fabric to use? I have plenty.

jacquie

yes, patti! i wouldn't mind!! thank you!

i have all the back ground fabric i'm needing and have ideas for the trees and plants...
but,
i didn't know how to 'tie' it in with your 'character's'... but if i had some of your 'butt's' to fussy cut and add in here and there, that would be great!
send those 'butt's' of yours over!!!
ROFL

Jacquie, There is no envelope big enough to fit MY BUTT, however I will post the fabric BUTTS for you tomorrow. Did you see the Jenny Beyer Christmas fabric. I just saw a blurb in one of the magazines, I am going online to see all of it. On my shopping trip yesterday I bought some Stonehenge Magnolia Earth fabric from Northcott. here is the link to see what I got: http://www.northcott.net/?sid=2&layo...57&colorid=765

Just checked out that fabric...love it!

jacquie

no, i didn't see her fabrics... shame.
i'll be they were scrummy too!

i've got my background fabric for my william morris, it seems i have 2 if the same 'william morris in applique' books!! (brand new!!)
so, joan... if you do decide you would like to join us, and would like one of these books... i could send it over to you, in return for some fq's???
no obligation...
the applique projects are;
'kelmscott',
'bird'
'friends'
'tudor rose'
'morris magic'
'minature sampler'

Jacquie, I have been looking for the book on-line and haven't ordered it yet. Do you think the cost of mailing it would be worth it? I would be happy to send some fabric your way. Anything in mind you would like??

jacquie

well, i would be quite happy to post it over to you, no problem. i would have to pay postage wherever i sent it.
i think it would be quite special also if i were using fq's from my good friends in the usa! lovely happy thought

i think anything 'sensible' in Burgundy's, sage greens, something with blue flowers/gold flowers... nice fabrics large/small prints... whatever you think i'll like

if you're happy, i will go ahead and post this off to you.
love jacquie xxx
