Very pretty-I love your fabric. I've gotten a lot of sewing done, too, since we got all this @#@$# snow. Oh well, I guess it's good for something LOL.
Thanks for showing us your beautiful projects.

I saw the show Sew With Nancy a few weeks ago where she did a quilt called Versatile Ombre Fan Quilt....I have been searching high & low for the type of fabric she used...its like a color progressive pattern-I am beginning to think it was a older show. I know you can get the book & dvd from her web site but no fabric...if anyone can come up w/ a source I too would be grateful.

martha jo 02-23-2010 03:02 PM

That fabric is wonderful, your work too.

Sharon M 02-23-2010 04:35 PM

The fabric is beautiful and so are your snow day projects. Thanks for sharing them with us :thumbup:

I contacted customer support at Nancy's Notions. They just got the fabric in stock and will be posting it to the website. It can be ordered now. $8.99 per yard.

I love that fabric. What a great way to use it. Some day spring will actually get here. At least I hope so... :-)

lots2do 02-24-2010 08:10 AM

Hey, it's snowing here now! We might get up to 10 inches depending on who you listen to. We are on winter break here so I'm looking forward to some creative time...

RedGarnet222 02-24-2010 08:12 AM

Yes!! How colorful! Very dutch ... We are expecting four more inches today... Boo..hoo..hoo.. hoo .

Oklahoma Suzie 02-24-2010 08:15 AM

I really need to make a cover for each of my sewing machines.

Thank-you for the link, I went and peeked but that isn't the fabric that Nancy used on the show I watched, it was a floral and looked so pretty when she did a fan pattern, but that fabric is very pretty too.

cindyg 02-24-2010 08:55 AM

I love that fabric. It's not easy to find.

No the owner at my LQS said it was a fab a couple yrs ago but didn't sell well, thats why I am thinking the show I say was a older show.

opps sorry for double post-i hit the send twice

sylvia77 02-24-2010 09:39 AM

I love your sewing machine cover, it's so pretty!

Jshep 02-24-2010 09:53 AM

I purchased the dvd and the book. I am so glad I finally found the fabric. This is one quilt that will be all for me. :)

craftiladi 02-24-2010 10:14 AM

Sylvia thank-you I don't sew often w/o some sort of pattern and my measurements were alittle off-alittle to much in height but its ok works for me-probably fix it later.But you know how it is when you have a To Do list and anxious to cross off as many items as possible.
Jshep....if you would be so kind to let me know if the book as the instructions for the fan pattern I sure would appreciate.
thank-you
dee

Jshep 02-26-2010 06:26 AM

Yes it does.

craftiladi 02-26-2010 06:36 AM

Jshep.....thanks for letting me know about the book...looks like another item for my want list. I have never ordered any of Nancy's books-easy to follow?

Jshep 02-26-2010 12:59 PM

craftiladi. I really don't know. This is the first book I have ordered from her collection and I just got it. When I saw the show, I just had a fit over the black and gold. Went right then and ordered it. Of course I got the DVD too. Haven't had a chance to see it.
