    Wow. That is some HOT fabric. I think any pattern would be great. Especially with those firemen.

    I think the firemen on that fabric cover the smokin hot part!!!! Now you just need to find the pattern! Wish our firemen looked like that!! Can't wait to see what you come up with!

    I'd like to see a fireman in an apron made with that. He could even wear his hat if he felt naked in just the apron. :P

    Pam you is BAAAADDDDDD! (PS can I share!)

    That is one great fabric! Would make wonderful kaleidoscope stack n whack - if you cut it up you'd get little peaks here and there of bare chests, unbuttoned trousers etc, repeated 6-fold; might have to get me some of that!

    Oh, you wanted a pattern suggestion, ermmmm, well how about with the flamy fabric, some narrow star points, to look like flames?

    Great fabric - if we had firemen like that it might cause me to become a fire bug!!! I'm currently working on pattern that uses large squares that would be great. It's called American Hertiage from Robert Kaufman Fabrics. Just an idea.

    I went to www.robertkaufman.com and found the American Heritage pattern. That is a very neat idea. Boy, the free patterns on that site are awesome. Thanks

    When I have a fabric that I want to showcase like that I tend to make a sampler.. you can incorporate both fabrics in all of the blocks and use some solids, tone on tones, etc. and then make some nice sashing and/or borders from the hot sweaty bodied..um, I mean nice fireman print... :oops:

    Debbie where did you find it, I have been looking for his american heritage series and no one is carrying it. I am looking for the fabric that looks like a bunch of turquoise and red jewelry from the southwestern that is on his website but have called and looked on every site i know and noone is carrying it.
