    Thank you. I'll try emailing a couple of companies. I bought the fabric a few years ago (maybe 3?) but I know the quilt shop was still carrying it when they closed last year. I used the fabric in the border of a quilt and would like to use it for the binding.

    How big is your quilt, and how much fabric do you have? It almost looks as if you have enough fabric for a binding right there!

    The quilt is queen bed size. I don't have enough.

    Sometimes you can google a description of the fabric and then look at images to see if a picture of it comes up. Black, blue and purple batik?

    I found it! It's made by Hoffman. Batiks Plus says it's retired but they have it for sale. So do a couple of other shops. Thanks for your help!
