fabric help
Last month while on vacation, I bought a very large bag of fabric odds
and ends (for $5 at an LQS, woohooo). In the bag, I found a lot of fabric that felt different than the rest... bear with me, because I don't know much about thread count and fabric types, but it is like a very high thread count sheet... lightweight, almost see through, but not cheap feeling...I'd guess 100% cotton, but almost bordering on a rayon feel. There is a lot of it, and it is all different floral designs, very pretty. Two of the pieces have selvedges in tact and those read: "London Collection by Rose&Hubble". There is a lot of variety in color and design, so I'm not sure they're from the same manufacturer, but all feel remarkably similar in weight. Is anyone familiar with the maker? Is it quilting material? Can it be mixed in a quilt with other fabric? Should I use keep it (Oops, I can see what the answer to that will be), but just use it in projects on its own? I have a bag of other fabric ready to go to Jill's little creatures on Monday, so thought it was timely to ask. Thanks!!! Lynn p.s. Tina, if you're reading, I STILL have the squishie for your little quilter in my drawer at work, because I decided to sneak in some other fabric with it -- will send that on Monday too. Sorry! |

Rose and Hubble is very nice quilting fabric. I believe it is no
longer made. The contrast you are noting is not to the detriment of the Rose and Hubble fabric... I'm in the directory! Feel free to rid your stash of this fabric. Mary |

Please send ALL of your Rose and Hubble collection to me for close up
inspection. I guarantee you will not get it back, thus taking care of your problem. It's a tough job but I'll do it for you. AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH, yes. Rose and Hubble. LOVE that fabric. Top top quality fabric. Never touched a piece that I didn't like....and I am *EXTREMELY * fussy about where I use the lil bit that I have.
