with a fabric and wanted to make absolutely everything out of it?
I absolutely ADORE this fabric
- but it is really expensive around here. Anyone have any idea where I can find it more cheaply? It is $9.99 a yard. I think I want to buy a whole bolt!

The local quilt shop an hour south had this fabric/panel as a challenge quilt. I didn't check the price but did see that it was in several colors...was it Moda??? Seems like that is the brand.

Hi Alee! If you go to Fabric Depot http://www.fabricdepot.com they have it for $6.99/yd when online. (all online orders from them are 30% off so this is off the regular of $9.99) and their shipping is really cheap. I get things from them quite often and the service is remarkable :)

OH and I forgot to mention that I believe they give 40% off if you take an entire bolt :)

Hi Ladies- it is a medium weight 100% cotton print called "DayDreams" by Deb Strain for Moda pattern number 19191.
I want to make kitchen curtains, and dresses for Nora and maybe a skirt and jacket for me when I loose a little weight (Vertical patterns= bad for spreading middles). I want to do EVERYTHING with this pattern! I love the colors! I love the pattern...it's so ME! LOL

That's lovely fabric, Alee...what are you going to do with it?
I have also fallen for a fabric, Alee...it was a Waverly fabric, and I absolutely, positively fell in love with it (and it was of course, discontinued :)), so I searched all over the planet and I ordered a whole bolt of it....it now sits in my mother's garage (and has for 10 years). I was darned determined to do valances or chairs with it...but didn't. I still love it though, when I remember it :)
I know you won't do the same thing, Alee...you're far more motivated than I!!!

I did buy 1 and 3/4 yards because I thought I was going to need it for a quilt backing. Turns out I don't so I used some to made a dress for one of my AWarmHeart dolls sent to Mima and then I used some on a top for Nora. I have practiced that pattern a little bit more now with some other fabric and want to make a whole dress for Nora out of it if I have enough left.

Alee, it would make great curtains! I would make a cool summer skirt asap if it was me. Nora would get a kick out of seeing mom wearing something like hers!
