Do You Have This Fabric?

Alright! Alright!  I give!  I confess, I have been holding out on this one fabric trying to convince myself that, although it's my favourite and own only a small 10x11" piece, I don't need any more.  The fact that there is so little of it makes it extra, extra special...  Right?  I have used it so sparingly and now have less then a 5" square.  Well, I just can't take it any longer!  I WANT MORE!


However, now that I have looked online in just about every possible location I can think of or that Google can reach it's million tentacles for, it just doesn't seem to exist.  Of course.  Isn't that the way Murphy always gets his fingers into our business!  Darn Murphy and his laws!

So, here is a small plea.  Do you have any to share with me?  It is a reproduction fabric of some sort or may have been from a Thimbleberries line.  It is about 3 or more years old (yes, that's how long I've been trying to convince myself it's not really that important) and is chocolate brown with off-white chicken feet.  Any amount would be divine!

Happy quilting and watch out for Murphy!

My stash is bulging, but not with that one. Good luck!! I had a creme fabric with tiny red sewing machines on it. I cried when I used the last little piece of it.

Heather, that is reproduction from a couple of years ago. I had it in red, blue, and brown but like you I am down to my last little bit. I cannot remember if it was Nacy Gere or Judy Rothermel. I think Judy. The newer line Gettysburg has feet like prints and in the same shade just not quite exact. Fat quarter shop has that line. Happy Hunting! Although if you believe in Murphy and his laws-you will find metres of the stuff but no longer find it quite so appealing.
