Hi Abby, here is the link to the Quilted Strait shop. It is located in Port Gamble, Washington just outside of Poulsbo, WA. They have quick service.

Hi Cathy, Not yet. And, while looking that fabric up for Abby (above) I found there are quite a few other fabrics in that series. I may have to order some more. I am sure I will use the caterpillar in mug rugs, maybe a quilt for my GD. Just not sure at this point. :-D

That elephant fabric is sooooooooooo cute. It reminds me of a story I read to my kids....Elmer.., about an elephant that is different than the others. Just darling.

I love "mr. caterpillar", my GD calls him wormie. her wormie goes everywhere with her. I made her one 'wormie' quilt and I have one fat quarter of fabric of the caterpillar, but I have been looking for more. The elephants are adorable, too! I guess I'll be ordering some more fabric for another project!

Cute quilt! Sorry to add to your addiction.

You know one idea I had for my GKs is to make placemats with these fabrics. Also, instead of a mug rug, although that's a good idea for them also, a Snack Mat might work too. Kinda designating a place to put your food. :-D

Snack mat - great idea! GD grabbed the fat quarter last time she was here (she loves to peek through the stash!) with two other bright colored ones and wanted to do something - a snack mat would be perfect!

Great. Will you post it on here when you get it done?

I am going to donate an art quilt (no larger than 9" x 12") to the Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative. I think I will do some of the elephants and maybe work up something with the caterpillar.

Here is their site address: http://www.alzquilts.org :-D
