Beautiful fabric! Sometimes I just get mesmerized looking at them! I just wish there was some way to have a "screen saver" for the back of my eyelids so I can look at whole roomfuls, close ups or quilts at my leisure!

Here in Spain we pay about 12-18 euros per yard, I think that is expensive, would you mind disclosing what you have to pay over the pond, so I can be even more envious of all your lovely patchwork shops!! :wink: :wink: :)

Izy, here in Newfoundland, to get the nice fabrics, you can spend anywhere from $10-18 per metre!!! Lately I have been going the online route and I don't know why I didnt' do it sooner!

I LOVE what I got. It was in my hands last time I went to this shop, but I put it back--so I went back in today and got it with 2 solids to match!

I have to stop taking girlfriends to this place. :roll:

Your fabrics are beautiful. I just got their new catalog and was admiring some things in it. After seeing what you bought, I think I'll send in an order. Thanks for making up my mind for me! Have fun with your new stash.

Joy oh day, I love the fabrics in the first photo, those are my kind of fabrics.

But I must say that the Connecting Threads are my favorite by far..... 1200yds to a spool of 100% Egyptian Long Staple Cotton, no lint, no fuzz no knots.... I could do a commercial for them! Every quilt board I go to I sing the praises of Connecting Threads Essential threads.... and when you buy the sets they run under $16 for 10 spools. Geesh, other quality threads run $8 a spool!

You did great!
