Would you share a peak at your favorite fabric from your stash? The one that you wouldn't want to give to your best friend. That piece that excites you like a new quilter again. The one that you are anxiously waiting for the perfect project for.

Most of mine is in storage until we move, but for now this recently aquired OOP is the one I'm looking for the perfect quilt pattern for.

I just love the color combinations, the brightness & the weight.
Yes, I think I'll save a piece for a purse too. (The girls are @ 4 1/2" tall)

You are SO right about that piece of fabric! Don't know if I have any in my stash that have that effect on me. LOL!

I was thinking the same thing. It woud be perfect for a bow tuck. Let us know what you are planning to use it for.

I actually have 3. they each have sunflowers on them. I am hoping some day to have enough of them all or other sunflower fabric to make a king size quilt. These don't even go in my stash they have their own special place. i used a pen to tell the size of the sunflowers.

Pretty piece!
I think my favorites are the ons with cats....I collect them in a special box! I CANNOT walk away from a new fabric with cats, even if I only get a tiny piece!
