DITTO! Glad to see they thought about us "tea drinkers"!!

You're right... she does. The colors are brighter, though, with lime green and turquoise and chestnut brown. Deb Strain seems to choose slightly more subtle colors, and both this and her last coffee group had a lot of red-brown-beige-blacks in them.

I'm pretty unimaginative (or just too realistic) so I will probably always need to have brown be a major color player, if the theme is coffee!

I made my DD a coffee quilt. I wish this fabric was around then.

It seems that one season, there are lots of coffee fabrics... and then none for quite a while. Same thing with music fabrics; one year they were everywhere and then there was "a drought". Maybe one maker comes out with a theme group, and then if response is good, all the other manufacturers copy their idea. (I've been told that there's a lot of copying that goes on in the fabric world...)

I wish Moda, as much as I like them, would break out of their tendency to use the same color schemes over and over.

Cute fabric, but not my style.

Great and I said I wouldn't buy anymore fabric til I got some projects done. I love all of it. I think my favorite is the panel with teas fabrics. I better get busy. Crankn' up the a/c's. :thumbup:

We don't have JoAnn's here. I have been doing some searching on the 'net and I'm sure I'll come across something that will fit the bill. I'm looking for traditional cup and saucers and tea pots - very old-fashioned like my grandmother used to use.
