does this fabric look familiar to you??? I think this is my last treasured piece of it. If you happen to have any of it in your fabric collection and would be willing be part with a piece of it I would be forever grateful and happy to send you fabric in return or pay for it even......
on the cutting table this am....I will be making lots of red and green nine patches over the next year for a quilt for next Christmas....
I love this fabric line its Metropolitan Faire by Barbara Brackman for Moda. When I saw that kit for sale I just had to buy it using this fabric line. Speck by Miss Rosie's Quilt Company.
My progress on my red and white blocks... I will take a break the next few days from this project as I have a few gifts to whip up!
Can't wait to finish this top though my goal was by Thursday this week, lets see if I can still pull that off. Sleep is overrated, right? I really wanted to be hand quilting this one over the holidays....
I think I may have be more realistic and say quilting it in January.

Busy, busy girl! Red and green 9 patches...LOVE it!
I can see why you love that fabric, but, no, I don't have any. I love seeing the different fabrics in your quilts and it amazes me how many different reproductions there are. I received a gift certificate to my favorite repro quilt shop and I can't wait to go there to see what treasures are available. Hope someone has a piece of your fabric!
no luck on the missing fabric here. : ( i love metropolitan fair, too. just picked up a charm pack...
You have some great projects in the making! And I even see a little Ho Ho Ho in the background! Enjoy the day!
Do you sleep? You seem to get so much piecing done! The red and white quilt is going to be a stunner!
Every time I visit I find very pretty fabric and pattern choice! You make my bucket list longer!! Lol
I haven't any of the fabric you seek.
Yes sleep is highly overrated! LOL
Your red and white blocks just sparkle!
Cannot help you with the fabric either - never seen it before - I can see why you want more!
You will have your quilt ready in time for Valentine's Day! ;)

All your projects are wonderful! I haven't seen Metropolitan Fair in person, but it looks like a great line. Sorry...can't help you on that fabric :(
The fabric you are cutting for the red & green nine patches looks very good. I think you are the Nine Patch Queen. You use nine patch blocks a lot and turn them into wonderful quilts.
Always fun to see what new things you are working on, you inspire me to get going and do more quilting. Wish I had some for you, but nothing like that in my stash.

I don't have that fabric either but I do love what it on your cutting table. I have been seeing lots of zig zag quilts around - very tempting.
ya know...I just had a V8 moment reading your post. Your quilts are like relatives that come around for visits. you work on a few blocks at a time rotating them until they are done. My frustration is that in my pee brain I need to finish a quilt I start and when I don't within some weird designated time I feel stressed. you are my quilt guru (unfortunately I have never seen that fabric, good luck)
OMG, Kathie, you are the Queen of awesome projects. I always love everything you show.
This post has given me food for thought for 2013. Off to think some more. :-)
Sorry I don't have any of that fabric either but it is wonderful. Love all your projects. I always have a variety going so when I get tired of working on one I can work on something else and at least I am being productive. They all get finished eventually. Even if sometimes it is years later in my case lol.
Kathie, I always enjoy seeing what's going on in your sewing room. Lots it seems!! lol
You amaze me! Wow.
yep i have a collection of metropolitan fair as well...it's gorgeous! download the free label from barbara brackman's site..
You're already planning next years Christmas quilt! I love your red and white blocks, you'll get it finished in no time the way you are going.
i love the favorite fabric and wonder if you have a name for this fabric or timeline. do love the working on next years projects
Wonderful projects - thanks for sharing. Sorry - have no idea what that fabric is - hope someone can help you.

You have made a LOT of progress on that red and white quilt. Looks really beautiful! You get ten blocks done, I got One ten inch block done! LOL. Have a great week!
Wouldn't it be fun to have extra fabric that someone else wanted! Alas, none here. I do love to see your projects.
I'm sorry to say that your fabric doesn't look familiar - I wish it did! It's terrific.
I am in love with the red and white quilt - and I can't wait to see what comes next. So get busy - sleep is vastly overrated... said no one ever. ;)
Hé, the second mini inspire me to make a mini with that border and nine patches :-)
I'm curious how you will use them
Wow! Everything looks so beautiful. Very inspiring. I am sorry to say I don't have the fabric either. Good luck finding it. Have you tried one of the sites/groups that you can list what you are looking for?
Love seeing your various projects! I was in a similar state this weekend - different projects on the design board, cutting mat and table. lol
Sorry I can't help with the fabric. It's a beauty!
Not needing as much sleep is one good thing about getting older!
Can't believe that not one of us can help with that fabric. Wish I could, but I even searched some 1800s fabric collections online, but to no avail.
Love all of your projects. That red and white is so striking!
