I know this has been asked before and I always say, for Petes sake, write down the website. But did I? NO!
The last customer quilt I quilted had tans, black and white and it would be PERFECT for MY bedroom with beige walls, black furniture and white trim.
When I returned the quilt she was in the middle of a yard sale but said she would call me because she had saved the salvage info. But I haven't heard back from her.
Here is a pic of the fabric.


I don't mind coming to work. But that 8 hr. wait to go home is a drag.

Thanks, Evelyn. 2 or the stores they listed as having it, doesn't. But I haven't given up yet.

Tell us about the fabric specifics. Wave Quiltshops.com usually is a big help, but it's not the only trick we have up our sleeve.

I think I have seen that but for the life ofme and old age I can't remember where. Try
Handc ocks of Paducah. Email them a pic because they usually have more fabric to choose fron that the others. You migh even check with Mary Jo's in NC

All I know is that it is regular cotton quilting fabric. The name of it is Orleans by Fabri-quilt. She had a coordinating smaller print fabric for the backing but I like the bigger print shown. It also comes in a blue, yellow coloring but I want the brown version.
I'm sure once I find it it is going to be out of my price comfort but it might be worth it.

icC another thing you could try is posting a pic at www.missingfabrics.com I have had really good luck there.

I use www.findmyfabric.com you can upload a pic also,or enter the info,good luck!!

I have been trying to locate a particular print from 3 years ago, keep finding places,then it says sold out. Sometimes I guess it is telling me to move on...

took a quick look for yours,thisis what i found,and on their contact us page,you can eail or call them

http://www.fabri-quilt.com/pro...D=386#categorysearch

I have never seen that particular fabric before.

sometimes go to the Home page of the co and look to see where it may be available...sometimes it list shops who have bought it.

http://www.fabri-quilt.com/contactus/ give them a call..you know,I think I have seen that brand at WalMart!

I used find my fabric and put in the picture.
It didn't have yours, but some with similar colors came up.
It is a lovely fabric, I hope you can locate it.

Here's something I had to try. I put in a random colorful picture to see if Find my fabric would color match my picture with fabric.

Got an interesting result. I may try this when I have a problem color match!

Here's a search option from the company...might find a shop near you that has the fabric, but not an online footprint. How much are you looking for, since I'm making the rounds of quite a few vendors this week.

http://www.fabri-quilt.com/wheretobuy/

I see Mandy's found some for you...maybe she'll tell us how she found it.

equilter.com is another I've found useful sometimes.
