The PERFECT stripe fabric to go on Jeremy’s quilt! It is a smidge darker than what it appears in the photo, but it looks great with the shirt fabrics.
WHERE did I find this, you might ask? At Mama’s Quilt Shop in Independence, LA (very close to Hammond, LA). And of course I can’t buy just one fabric when I have traveled that far, so these other things wanted to come home with me, too.
Patterns: I almost NEVER buy patterns, but she had a great sale on lots of them, and at half-price, I found several that I needed. I might keep them, or I might use them as gifts…. we shall see.
And she ALWAYS has great fabric in the sale room at 50% off… my kind of price! The stripe is for quilt bindings. I LOVE a striped quilt binding cut on the bias, so when I find a good fabric on sale I get some. The gold check was FREE! Yes, you heard right…FREE FABRIC! I completed all the punches on a fabric shoppers card from her shop and got to choose a FREE yard of fabric!! You just can’t beat that!!
SO, if you are ever in southwest MS or southeast LA you MUST go hunt Mama up!! A GPS would be helpful to find it, but you can just call the shop and they will give you good directions on how to find them.
HAPPY STITCHING!

I have a similar fabric (looks like pillow ticking stripes) on the back of a quilt. It was hard to find, but I knew it would be perfect for a Civil War reproduction quilt. I LOVE it.
