May Blog Giveaway

I LOVE hand dyed fabrics and batiks! They comprise a sizable percentage of my stash. I am drawn to the batiks in every quilt shop I visit. I am a Hoffman Fabrics magnet. Most of the time when a fabric calls my name it is usually a Hoffman Fabric. My friends Bruce and Diane Magdison from Sew Batik have gorgeous batiks. It is really hard to contain myself when their booth is by ours at a show because I want to buy them all. They have gorgeous flannels and rayons which are hard to find. I used their fabrics in my Chevron Charm Table Runner.

I have been buying Rainbow Fabrics Hand Dyed Fabrics for about 10 years. The owner, Diana Lacy dyes all of the fabric in her home. She does an amazing job putting colors together into Rainbow Packs. These packs contain 12 fat quarters. I used Touch the Rainbow in my Confetti Quilt.

She also has the best skin tone fabrics I have seen anywhere. If you do portrait quilts or doll making, you will love these. There is a wide range of colors so shading is very easy.
