Hi everybody ! I am looking for a specific cloth and I wondered if ya'll could help me. The "Harvest Apron" shows a really cute print with what I would call a "vintage fabric." It has a kitchen print in green and other primary colors. I checked www.reprodepot and nothing even close. I have decided to work my way thru each of the aprons featured in the book. I know I "should" use my imagination and my own fabric combos but that print is just so dang cute!! Any thoughts? Thanks , Angela
Angela -- there is lots of reproduction fabric out there now. There is a Kay's Kitchen line that is reminiscent of the bright 40's and 50's colors. That can be found at a quilt shop. I know that MJ gets a lot of her fabric at Joann's. What is that particular print called?
Jenny , thank you so much for sending that link . Last night I sifted thourgh what seemed like thousands of fabric listings on eBay with no sucess. I will definately be ordering it. I was registered on eBay before but have long since forgotten my password. Do you think that will be a problem? Also (forgive a dumb question), but when it says "buy now" that means there is no auction involved right? Kay , thanks also for your response. By the way, my mother's maiden name is Kay and I have always regretted that they didn't make it part of my name. Angela
Kay, woweee! I couldn't get on Kaye's kitchen web site last night due to slow dial up.. but found it this morning at work . Those fabrics are gorgeous. I have never seen them around here(South Carolina) and I will be ordering "lots" soon! Thank you for sharing that with me--I found the perfect one for the clothespin apron and more for new kitchen curtains!! Thanks again , Angela
