Pink!

I needed about a dozen different browns, rusts and tans for a special order. Fat quarters were all I needed, so I drove out to the premier quilt shop in my area, Quilted Threads. I found all my browns without any trouble.

Quilted Threads is only 25 miles from my house, but it takes 45 minutes to get there, so I don't get there very often. Every quilt shop has its own personality, and carries things you can't find anywhere else, so I made sure to look around.

Look at this!!The selvages are awesome too.
I'm gonna have a lot of fun with this.

By the way, did you know Pink didn't always refer to PINK?

    What great fabric! What is the name of it? I made a quick search and couldn't find it on a couple of online stores that I looked at.

    I go back and forth between your blog and Etsy shop to admire your color choices and quilt combinations.

    QT is 20 minutes from my house - store filled with color.

    Thanks Carol! For me it's all about the color and the contrast. And surprises. I love juxtaposing things that give the viewer a little jump!
