Back in the dim and distant past, I used to make lots for the DD's, I wonder if I could scan any of the old photos onto here??

I really love the colours in the skirt.   Very Happy   I was wondering if I could be nosy and ask where you got them from, how much of each colour you got and which AB prints they are?   Embarassed   Thanks.   Laughing

Crikey - the fabrics are from a couple of years ago - IIRC there was daisy willow and sun dahlias... not sure of the others!  I bought it through a fabric coop on Yahoo groups - a good way to get fabric at a good price but sometimes painfully slow (I think it took about 6 months to get the Amy Butler stuff)
Amy Butler sometimes comes up on etsy - worth a look.
I can't rememebr exactly how much of each print I used - I was cutting from scraps left over from other things - I know the big pattern piece fits on a FQ so I'd guess you'd get 2 complete panels from 3/4 of a yard of 44 wide cloth.
