Free to Grow by Nancy Mims for Robert Kaufman.
Love the super 60′s looking Garden colorway! Also really love the grey.
Has the added benefit of being organic.
Modern Meadow by Joel Dewberry for Free Spirit available at Pink Chalk Fabrics.
I would love a piece of the entire line, but there are a couple of these prints that I need at least a yard in each colorway. I wonder if there is a home dec version that is coming out? I would eat that up. Joel Dewberry just released a new book too. I may go hide out in the craft book corner at Book People for an hour and see what thats all about.
Dream On by Urban Chiks for Moda available at Fat Quarter Shop.
Fresh vintage sheets! If I were to find these vintage sheets at the thrift store I would claim it thrift store find of the year! Of course I might be paying more for this yardage, but think of the money I will be saving on laundry detergent. I have seen some early release charm packs and layer cakes flying around cyberspace, but the official release is October. Fat Quarter Shop is kind enough to not only have the great “Coming Soon” section, but they will also email you when it becomes available which I think will be a totally nice surprise to see in October.
Interesting how quickly our wants turn to needs. I even understand the apprehension now of cutting into a prescious piece of fabric that you know you may never find again. Darn these designers creating such cute fabric. What happened to the good old days of boring fabric. It was so much easier to cut and waste it.
Great posts. Love reading your blog.
When you order frogs legs at a restuarant what do they do with the rest of the frog ? – Well surely they just throw the rest of the frog away and take it to the tip.

When I think about “the good old days” I think about how it seems every single piece of fabric was precious no matter the design. Every last little bit of scrap was used and then re-used. Most really old quilts seem to be worn out clothes. I know you know this, just reminding you
I wish the days of feedsack fabrics would come back! Do we really have more plastic & paper pulp than plant fibers? All of our extra packaging found at the grocery store should have automatic reusability included in the design.
