Sparky Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 I need more of a fabric that isn't being printed any more. Can I post a picture here and ask if anyone has some I could buy, or is there a special place I need to go to do this?

ramona-quilter Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 of corse, you can. Make your phot 800 x 600 pixels or smaller or it will get rejected for being too big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltmonkey Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 Do you have a small piece of the fabric? You can get the name of the fabric or designer (located in the selvage) and do a google search on it. I've been successful doing this; also contact the manufacturer/designer. Also check ebay.

mountainmanda Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 I may be able to help you out. Get all the info that Shana listed above and I will see if i carried it in my shop. I still have some bolts left from when I closed the shop. Take care and let me know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juliagraves Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 You can also scan the fabric into your computer and then print it on fabric that you would print photos on - like Printed Treasures, or other photo fabric. This is sort of an expensive option, but good if you only need a small amount. Julia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Amanda, I am looking for a Christmas print from 2007. It is Hoffman Holiday Enchantment Style D983. It is the scarlet background with the gold feathers and leaves. I have googled until I can't google anymore to no avail! If you have this fabric let me know. I will buy yards! Thanks, Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DB Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Robin, Are you able to post a photo of the fabric that you are looking for? I have alot of Hoffman Christmas fabrics. Dianne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilting Heidi Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Diana, Of course you can post a picture of the fabric you need. That is so frustrated to not be able to find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calicokat Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Isn't this why we accumulate that stash anyway? You just know you (or a friend) might NEED this fabric someday Post a pix and let us all go diving in our stash! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlette Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 I have lots of fabrics. What fabricaholic doesn't? Anyway, I may be able to help out with the first one...I don't have too many Christmas fabrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountainmanda Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Robin, I'll check the stash and let you know. Let me apologize now if i am unable to get back to you until tomorrow. My daughter and I are going to see Twilight tonight after I get off of work and I may not be able to look until tomorrow morning. We have been waiting for this movie since JUNE! Hope it does the book justice! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky Posted November 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Hi everyone, Here is a picture of the fabric I need. It has a white background and it looks like you took a paint brush and spattered bright paint on it. I need it for a project I'm doing and if anyone has any of this, I would really like to buy it from you.

lizziesgirl Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Threads of tradition at Sauders village in Archabold Ohio has it. I go there for Saturday Samplers and they had it for a background piece. they must have ordered a bunch cause last time I was there they still had it. I just have little chunks, nothing that could be used for borders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 You guys are going to make me learn to post pictures aren't you? I will try to post a picture this weekend. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky Posted November 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Thank you, thank you, thank you. I caledl the quilt shop you suggested and bought almost all they had. I can't believe I got such a fast response. This fabric is not being printed any more so I never would have found it. I read the posts here every day but this is the first time I've posted anything myself. What did we do when we didn't have computer???? Thanks again, Diana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sewidahoquilts Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Wow! I have been looking for this fabric for years. I purchased it in a little quilt shop in Hailey ID in 2004, I don't know how long she'd had it. I need it for Pillow Shams to match a KS Quilt top I've made. Hope someone recognizes it and can help. This scan sometimes looks a little too blue. The true color is a sage green on cream. This would be too great if someone has it and is willing to part with it. I can use any pieces you may have. Fingers are crossed! Dixie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Okay, we'll see if this works. I will try to post my Hoffman Holiday Enchantment fabric from Christmas 2007 that I am looking for. Wish me luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 This is a Christmas quilt I used this red fabric in. I made an Irish Chain quilt for an Irish lady who loves birds. On the back of the quilt my label had an Irish Blessing. I wanted to keep it so bad!! I still don't have a Christmas quilt of my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilting Heidi Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Dixie - that is a pretty fabric. I don't recall seeing anything like that around. I'll keep my eyes open. Robin - glad to see you can post pictures now! Sorry I can't help you on the fabric either but it is really pretty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Oh, the blue things at the bottom of the quilt are my feet with my blue slippers on...I still need to take a good photography course! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilting Heidi Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Robin- I just got done fussy cutting that bird fabric for a tree skirt for my mother! I got the fabric at a quilt shop in Queensbury NY. I can't think of the name of it though. I'm not sure if she would have it or not. Let me do a little searching and I'll try to find the name and phone number for you! She may have the red in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
