    Default Celtic Solstice - Last Year's Bonnie Mystery

    Mine just needs borders so today I went shopping for the fabric since I don't have enough of the color I want. Couldn't find a single bit of anything in the red I need. They're all more pink or orange than what I used. Last year when I was choosing fabric there were plenty of choices in that color. It's a good thing I'm not shopping for CS this year.

    I got a red for my son's quilt but need more and went to the exact same store 2 weeks later. I even took a piece of the fabric in to be sure. Not. So I looked for similar fabric, similar color different pattern. Grabbed another 2 yards.

    There might be low inventory because of the season. Did you check online?

    it's not a particular line of fabric and I find colors hard to match when ordering online. Will have to keep looking or change my plan for the border color.

    There are so many colors of RK Kona or Moda cotton solids that I am sure one of them would work. I know that if you send a sample request to Hancock of Paducah stating what you are looking for, they will tell you what fabric they have that would work with what you are looking for. Give them a call for additional information.
