Is this fabric still out there?????
I am desperately searching for more of Makower UK Spray time 2800 L09
I am in the United States and the only thing I have found that is close is Makower UK 2800 L08. It is a deep, dark purple, almost looks black in the photo. The selvage edge says: TP280/1 Spray time by Makower UK England. I bought it in a Tivoli - I lov it paper piece kit then decided it had to go in a different quilt. The instructions for the Tivoli is where the L09 came from. I have placed an ad on www.MissingFabrics.com The two leads I got both led to dead ends. I spent hours searching the internet before placing the ad. I even sent email to and I have received no response in at least a week. I thought you guys might know --- Is this fabric still out there???? Thanks, Tricia |

Tricia--
If you would share the number of your missing fabrics request it would be much easier to look at the picture. One resource for finding old fabrics is this sto Old Times, 954 N. Main, Princeton, IL 61356. The phone is 815-872-9841. If you send them a swatch or a picture they will try to match it for you. Good luck! Mary |

Thanks, Tricia I know it's not what you want, but www.quiltersparadiseonline.com has the Makower Spray time in dark green, dark blue, and a few other colors. Could you not use dark blue instead? Why not write to these folks and ask if they have any purple in the shop, or if they can get you some. -- Jo in Scotland |

Sorry. It is ad # 12745 and it was on page 19 when last I checked -- it
might have been bumped to 20 by now. Thank you for wanting to help. Tricia "Mary in Rock Island IL" wrote in message ...

Thanks. I'll see if they have it in the purple. I found and ordered 1/2 of
the next lighter purple, but it won't work. The quilt top is finished except for the border. And unfortunately, blue definitely won't work. The quilt top I'm working on is the Whacky Stacky from the guild workshop in my WIP folder. (the dark purple pinwheels) It is sooooooooo dark purple, it is almost black.

The first one is L08, which I ordered a half yard of, but it is a shade too
light. I bookmarked the second link. It has the wrong number (V9), but I think that I will order 1/2 yd and see. I have looked at 50 on-line stores, they have Spray time in every thing, but L09!!!! Thanks, Tricia The other one isn't L09, it is V9 but I might order the smallest amount to see if that is it. "Jeri" wrote in message . .. Could it be one of these?

Howdy!
I was in there last week. The lady on duty said, "We keep getting these requests to match fabric!" I asked, "And can you, match the fabric, that is?" She said, "Mostly! It's fun to hear from everyone, too." ;-D 4 large rooms full of fabric, the shop just keeps winding around and around and you go over here and then you see something over there and then there's new stuff-- I laid down some $$ and came away VERY happy. I'm sure it will all match something. g Ragmop/Sandy--in north Texas, doing my part for this shop in my home town "Mary in Rock Island IL" wrote in message ...
