Fun Mail Arrives!

The wheels are spinning with the new (to me) addition of Aunt Grace Friends Around the World! FUN MAIL IS THE BEST!!! Readers may remember some of the Dear Jane blocks done in a few of these fabrics. {You'll find a few more are at G13, 100th Post & 5 Triangles}. I had the hardest time finding the whole set since they've been out of print for a while. I have been searching for some of the pieces for a very long time...including 2 trips to see Judie & Bob Rothermel's shop at the International Quilt Festival. I have such a soft spot for Judie's fabrics. She's still my favorite designer {and I'm beginning to think she always will be}. Hmmm. Now I'm thinking about Jane again.  Maybe this winter I'll pick it back up again.
Happy Sewing, 
Heather

    I have miss this fabric, totally NEW to me! I went over to Judie's site and don't see it... Is it NEW or new to you, now that you've found it. I WANT some!!! NOW!~ lol Seriously. I have no idea about this fabric, please tell me more. LOVE IT!
    I love Judy and Bob, they have always come here to the Jacksonville Quiltfest and not this year. They have always done their booth themselves and traveled and all. I hope they are okay and just cutting bak maybe on their travels.
    Loved catching up with you today. XO

    Woops. Nice catch, Sandra. It's Aunt Grace Friends Around the World. I think we called it AG travels because we were all looking for them after they went out of print and most people were trading just scraps without selvage.

    That looks like a beautiful bunch of fabric. I love how fabric comes to my house all pretty and folded. It is like a beautiful present.
