help finding fabric Sign In/Join

I've been looking for fabric or quilting square that has a large flower approx 12" dia. I've seen clothing from this type fabric & one flower covers almost all the skirt front. When it is used on a decorative pillow one flower covers most of the pillow. I've searched Google & haven't come close to finding a match. Can anyone help? I know someone must be selling this fabric. Thanks.

I remember seeing that type of fabric line, my friend in KY has some for a quilt. I think it was a current line about six years ago...so will be hard to find. But, not impossible!

There were different flowers in the line...like a rose, or a hibiscus, etc.

Good luck in your hunt!

That's it. It almost looks like the flowers are painted on the fabric. Thanks.

glp have you tried www.quiltshops.com?
I tried "large flowers" and got a few that might work for you like here: http://www.quiltersranch.com/c...&pid=1#DE3M7407Gilda

or here: http://www.thebestkeptsecret.c...0kb1880&pid=1#kb1880

although none look as large as you want....and not all of the shops give size or show a tape measure with the fabric swatch...Frown

I didn't look through all of the pages of shops so go try for yourself to see what you might find
