Mom and I were talking about fabric panels the other day, and I mentioned one I'd seen at Georgia Sewing and Quilting. I thought it was called "Empire," but when I went to pick one up today I found it is actually Benartex' "Gotham" which is an entire line. I only bought one panel, so I may have to go back for more. I was online and saw some other panels of interest at Reproduction Fabrics. I really like the panels under "American Artists" and "National Parks and Scenic Areas." The latter category has a four panel set of Ellis Island prints. I don't know what I would ever do with the printed fabric (some of the them are a little pricey), but they do provoke the imagination, and who knows what we might come up with on our own? That reminds me: I need more play time.....Saturday, May 23, 2009

That is a beautiful panel. I just found a quilt pattern that used strip panels like that, would be nice in a quilt for my daughter. Will have to hit the quilt stores soon and see what new things they have. Was hoping to get up to NH and hit Keepsake quilting.
