BobbieJones Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 Hester: There is a quilt shop about 45 minutes from my house that has lots of KF. I printed the page and will fax it to her to see if she has it. I will let you know ASAP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juliagraves Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 Take a photo of the fabric and print it out on Printed Treasures fabric and see if it looks close enough. Good luck! Julia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quiltjunkie Posted September 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 Thank you Pam, and if we don't have it tomorrow when I get to the shop at least I know where I can get it. Thank you all so much..I knew you ladies would come to the rescue.. I was sick to my stomach when it happened and then I remembered this great community of people who love to help a fellow quilter in distress.. and you guys did it again:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitaR Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 Hester, I can agree, it makes one sick to the stomach. So sorry it happened, and prayers that you find the fabric and a good fix.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaurieG Posted September 18, 2010 Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 Been there, done that! I felt sick to my stomach when I did it so I know what you are feeling. Have you asked your customer if she has more of the fabric? I was fortunate that my customer had more of the fabric I ripped and I was able to fix it with no problem. Good luck to you...... it'll all be fine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quiltjunkie Posted September 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 Again I want to say "THANK YOU" to all of you and especially those who searched the internet and came up with the fabric at a few sites.. When I went into to the shop this morning hoping we might still have a fat qrt, I opened the back door to an empty store room, not a fat qrt in sight as the owner was at a quilt show in San Deigo with all our stock..but one of the girls that work at the shop is a K Fassett 'HOARDER'.. so I gave her a call went to her house after work and in the 2nd bin of her K stash..there it was a qrt of a yard of Yellow Suzani.. so my goal tonight is to get this repaired and finish the last 2 borders and mail this baby off to Houston. The front of the quilt will have no evidence of the disaster, but the back will have a tell tale seam...some people probably would never notice with the busy backing fabric but this woman will, so I'll have to confess and give her a discount. Just a reminder to all, check that needle position before you roll:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iedquilts Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 What an unfortunate mishap! So happy that you have numerous sources for fabric. Irene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilting Heidi Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 Glad you found the fabric for the repair. I did this not long ago and reminded myself not to quilt when I was too tired! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
