VIP Exclusive (a division of Cranston) is coming out with a new group of Elvis Presley fabrics sometime next year. This is the first new Elvis group in... well, quite a while.

What do you think? Will there be a market for this?

I think the guitars are quite nice and they don't scream "Elvis".

Ooooooh I love it!!! I love Elvis :o)

OMG -- it's ALL gorgeous!! :D

I would buy at the drop of a hat! Just because it is ELVIS!!!!!!

I like the 6th and 7th fabrics.

I helped my sister make her MIL a rag quilt with the previous Elvis fabric line. I love this one! The colors are much nicer. I really didn't care for the shade of green that was in that line of fabric. I will tell my sister about this so she can make her MIL another quilt or something.

I like the red and black ones. This is perfect for son in law who is major Elvis fan. but then so am I, my daughter is a Lisa Marie. She jokes and tells people I was an Elvis groupie..

Will definitely need some Elvis fabrics. Hubby likes Elvis and DD's boyfriend is a musician so I am sure he probably likes Elvis too! And I like Elvis too!

I got the last Elvis line off the reduced rack from Wally World paid $2.00 a yard for panels and $1.00 for the fillers: Got top done but haven't quilted yet. Will finish soon so will be ready for this line (on sale) :)

I like the guitar fabric!!

I love it, I will have to watch for it, my mom would love it too

The guitars may not scream Elvis, but I will...E-L-V-I-S!!! (At least I didn't pass out! LOL)

I am a huge Elvis fan and will certainly be looking for this line next year. My Mom will also love it because it is both Elvis and RED!

Thanks so much for the preview.

Love anything to do with ELVIS

I have been an Elvis fan for as long as I can remember. Those fabrics are fantastic!

Love the guitars, too! You're right they don't scream Elvis. I have an aunt, however, who would go absolutely NUTS over these fabrics!!!!! She even named her two sons after Elvis's middle name (Aaron). One she named Aaron, and the other son is named Garon. :roll: Go figure!! Personally, I've never been that obsessed with ANY celeb. :|

Thank you, thank you very much! for posting these fabrics. I really like the guitars and the 5th-8th fabrics.

LOVE IT!!! Would be very interested in buying some of the prints...They are classier than the previous collection. The one with the guitars is a winner in all catagories.

My 80 year old gram would go nuts with this fabric!

I would like to know if the Elvis pictured actually looks like Elvis. I have seen many fabrics and refuse to buy them because the face doesn't even look like him... Can you post a larger size pic of those so I can see the faces better? As for the others, I like them already. Have a friend who LOVES Elvis, so will be buying this to make something for her if the faces look right.

Love the previews of fabrics you do. Keep 'em coming!

Love the colorways of these fabrics, and the guitars!

Love it!! will be looking for it........

To tell you the truth... none of the "people" fabrics I've ever seen are photo-realistic. You'll get the definite impression that it's Elvis (or Dorothy, or Lucy) but it won't look like a photograph. All the Elvis fabrics have been made by Cranston, so whether it's the Quilting Treasures brand, VIP brand or VIP Exclusive, it's probably going to come out about the same.

The pictures that I posted are what I found on the "wholesale customers only" section of Cranston's website. I don't have access, at this point, to any larger pictures. Many of the fabric companies no longer print samples on fabric, for shops to choose from; we have to make our choices based on the pictures that we see. And pictures don't always translate perfectly onto fabric.

The Elvis line is from the VIP Exclusive division of Cranston, which means two things:
- it won't be available in chain stores
- you won't be able to get it at chain store prices

These are going to cost your LQS the same as their Quilting Treasures brand, meaning that the retail price is ... well, you're not going to find it at $2 / yard. It's going to be quilt shop prices, because it comes in at a quilt shop cost.

My (semi-educated) guess is that those fabrics from this group that ever DO make it to clearance status are not going to be any of the ones with Elvis on them; it will be the dots or the checks.

This is the best Elvis line that I have seen yet :D:D:D
I would buy it all!!

I love the matching fabric.

What cool fabrics. I love them.

I must have some of these. A friend is a BIG Elvis fan and I
make her something for Christmas each year with Elvis fabrick,
if I can find it.

I'm with you the guitar fabric is nice and can have a lot of uses other than "just Elvis" fabric.

I love all of the Elvis fabric!

My son and I love the guitars, but his wife really loves Elvis. I can hear her screaming now.

I have some Elvis fabric in aqua with his autograph all over it in darker aqua. I have no Idea what I am going to do with it... :oops:
