I have been collecting reproduction fabrics for my next quilt. Here's a link to the pattern:

I bought these on-line - they are all 1/2 yard cuts, they came today! Woo Hoo!

Ooohhhh...can you feel my "cyber drool"? Very pretty fabrics--I can already picture them in some projects :lol:

Ducky 07-24-2009 01:01 PM

Oh, wow. I want to touch them....isn't that silly? (I do that at the LQS all the time.) Thank you for the link! I don't believe I've been there before. So, do you know what quilt you will be making?

Oooooo Pretty, very pretty!!! :D :D :D

Hi'a Ducky - Come on over and touch away!! The link is to pattern that I'll be making - The Belle Meade by Bonnie Blue. That's the store that I won the gift certificate to from the fabshophop.

I bought the fabrics at http://www.whittlesfabrics.com/ :D

Stop drooling!! It's getting all over my keyboard!! Thanks! :D

They look scrummy, and yes, I would like to pet them too - but wasn't that pattern supposed to be scrappy? Lol.

Ducky 07-24-2009 01:22 PM

Well now. My reading and comprehension just wasn't up to par, was it? I thought the link...............oh, never mind. :shock: Thank you, Bear. I have visited the web site for Whittle's, but haven't ordered there yet. So your 1/2 yds. were very inexpensive, weren't they?

MollieSue 07-24-2009 01:54 PM

Wow Bearpaw!!!! All soooo pretty!!!! It's going to be a beautiful quilt!! :-)

I did a couple of hotpads awhile back for a lady who saved scraps from her quilt. It was reproduction fabrics. I had not gotten into them yet and I started buying some since then and have been collecting them but haven't done anything with them.
I look forward to see what you do with all these fantastic fabrics! Such pretty colors and great patterns. I had fun with the scraps and when I have time plan to play with mine.

Hope we get to see pictures when you get that far!! I need inspiration!

quiltluvr 07-24-2009 02:11 PM

You struck gold!!!!!! I wanna touch them too! The pressure is on now, you gotta get sewing to show those fabrics off again. Can't wait!

I've got whittles bookmarked but haven't ordered from them yet. That just got bumped up the list.

charmpacksplus 07-24-2009 02:34 PM

Gorgeous fabrics! Be sure to show us the quilt when it's finished.

Shemjo 07-24-2009 02:39 PM

That looks like a fun project! Love the fabrics you picked! :lol:

Dancing Needle 07-24-2009 02:41 PM

Beautiful fabrics! Can't wait to see a picture of the finished quilt! (Yes, I want to feel the fabric too....can' resist!) :wink:

bearpaw 07-24-2009 03:28 PM

Thanks everyone! Hopefully I'll be able to start soon, I have two in the works now, so this is next.

Most of the half yards were $1.75 some were $2.00. I love Whittles! :D

Rhonda, if you like the reproduction fabrics, go to the Bonnie Blue website: http://www.bonniebluequilts.com/Sear...x?CategoryID=5

Lots of great patterns to get ideas from!

Eddie 07-24-2009 03:39 PM

Beautiful fabrics! Looking forward to seeing them in a quilt.

chickadee_42us 07-24-2009 03:40 PM

Love it - I am feeler too. I like to see the fabric, touch the fabric - smell the shop. I have never purchased on line as I am a skeptic, but in my restrictive area now to any LQS' I may have to turn a new leaf. Guess it's a coming of age thing!

Those fabric choices look wonderful. Good luck.

sewnsewer2 07-24-2009 03:42 PM

Love those fabrics!!

MoMoSews 07-24-2009 05:06 PM

Wow! I went to the web site and the fabric is really reasonable! Thanks. :lol:

crkathleen 07-24-2009 05:37 PM

Beautiful fabric. I'm starting to lean towards those shades to bad my fabric stash doesn't have any in it. Sounds like its time to go shopping!

barnbum 07-24-2009 05:53 PM

That's going to be gorgeous!! I love Bonnie Blue fabric--such high quality. I've made one of her quilts before... fun!!

Esqmommy 07-24-2009 05:56 PM

Wow, beautiful fabrics...and so much to play with! What pattern do you have planned? Looking forward to watching it unfold.

mgshaw 07-24-2009 09:57 PM

I love them!!! I have a couple of those but looks like I need to go shopping again!!!! :D Love the pattern, that is going to be gorgeous! Cant wait to see it!!!!

Harmony 07-24-2009 10:59 PM

I just bought that pattern at the International Quilt Show in Long Beach, CA today! Couldn't afford the whole kit with the fabric, but I'll put it on the back burner and make it one day. Can't wait to see yours!

You have great taste , I love them all :D

Bevanger 07-25-2009 05:12 AM

Gorgeous fabs. :D

tlrnhi 07-25-2009 05:36 AM

Oh, nice!
Can you just send them to me for a bit so I can smell, pet and love on them? I'll send them back to you when I'm done! :)

Ummmmm, somehow I don't think the "I'll send them back to you when I'm done!" will happen!!! :D

Debbie1 07-25-2009 07:51 AM

It will be such a beautiful quilt, especially with those colors in it! Can't wait to see it finished!

littlehud 07-27-2009 07:40 PM

Beautiful fabrics. I can't wait to see your quilt.
