    Kyla, What a great idea. I love your fabrics. Are you planning on doing the coloring by looking a value the colors in the original fabrics? Will be fun to watch your Christmas quilt grow. HelenW

    My favorite website to view fabric collections is Hawthorne Supply Co. Their website allow you to search by manufacture, designer, color. Have a look it is great.

    After spending a lot of time trying to source the Spring fabrics online, I called my local quilt shop. The next morning, my wonderful quilt shop owner ordered the Spring collection, with an extra bolt of the gorgeous floral border fabric. She is going to order the 1.25 x 2.5 Bloc-Loc ruler also. When the fabric comes in, I will post to the forum, in case anyone else wants to do the Spring quilt and is having trouble finding the fabrics. I won't get to start my quilt immediately, but that is okay with me. I have UFO's I should try to finish first.

    Happy New Year!
    I struggled a lot with deciding which fabrics I wanted to use for this quilt. I have a great love of reproductions, especially for 1930's fabrics, but I have used them in the last four quilts that I have started. I really wanted to do something different. I would like to make a quilt for my bed, but my husband is so hard on quilts that I can't have any appliques or hand stitching on the quilt. Since this quilt is mostly pieced (I will be replacing the applique blocks with pieced ones), I am going to make a Christmas quilt for my King sized bed. So, I am naming this quilt - Christmas at Laurel Ridge.
    I am using the Joy collection from Edyta Sitar at Laundry Basket Quilts (see picture below).

    Also take a look at the TOPIC Month 1 Ask Questions Here. This was asked a few days ago and photos of both the Fabric Requirements page and Month 1 pattern were shown to help.

    The photos on the Fabric Requirements page for each Kit are the same photos used each month on the pattern, making it easy to see which to use.
    And right now while you still have most of the fabric intact, it should not be difficult to determine which fabric to use this month. Perhaps now is a good time to label each fabric in your Kit.
    I'm sorry I don't understand the issue. Unless people are trying to use the photo of the finished quilt instead of the Fabric Requirements Listing. The two "photos" of the quilts are mock-ups and that is not the best way to identify which fabric is used where.
    I hope this helps.

    Hi, I'm finding it a bit difficult to match the pictures of the fabric on the fabric requirements page to the block of the month fabric pictures. Is there a way now to label them or is it too late. I see each fabric has a number beneath it, but not on the Month 1 instruction sheet.

    That should work just fine.

    Open every piece of fabric in the Kit. You might find it. It’s only an eighth of a yard.
