I've beaten the bunny!! by Elena
Well you could judge by brand name.. ( not the best way I've found ) or you could email them and ask for a swatch of the ones you are interested in, or you could post the fabrics you want here, and see if anyone else has bought them. Or just tell us which shop you are thinking of buying from, and...

Weird S.E.X! by Kate Dicey
Had a VERY odd trip today! First off I had to take Serge the Serger to get his 'bit' fixed - he'll be gone a couple of weeks, so time to quilt! Spent all of 5 mins in the shop and didn't buy a thing - didn't even look at 'stuff', never mind fabric! Mind you, I had checked it all out last week...

Flannel advice please? by Loren in Seattle
This group has given me some great advice on starting a flannel quilt, but I still have a question. My blocks are very simple, large HST's, 8" wide. Usually I square up HST's but the flannel seems like it needs less handling. Or maybe since the block is so bit, but so simple that they are...

Backing/Binding: Will this work? (long) by dogmom
