without any idea of what to use it for! Just because I like it so much. To me it looks like thin ice over a water-logged pasture with the occasional pink flower underneath. Colors are a little more intense.

It from RJR "Surrey Footpath" by Sue Beevers. I'll have to look up the whole line!

Tennessee Quilts have several different prints and they are all pretty. They would work as great fabrics to bring colours together.
Here is a link:

They are even on sale :thumbup:

First of many unplanned fabric purchases I predict. I bought my first unplanned fabric 15-20 yards ago (which makes me a light weight by most stash standards).

Here's another link:

All seem very "botanical"

I got mine for $5.99 at the little "Valu-Giant" store in Battle Ground! Its like a general store with quite a bit of fabric and craft stuff. Found some of same fabrics at Joanns, etc for $1 to $2 more.

I really like that fabric.

Thanks for the website for RJR. I just browsed over there and noticed that they have a lot of free patterns:

Some really awesome ones!
