Sorry :(

Does it work if you click on one of the above links? You can always navigate the site from there if you can get in. That's the only thing I could think of, sorry if it doesn't help.

mariana, i like your combo also. in fact, i had picked out that stripe pattern earlier...to see it with the one you picked is cute.

i want something fun for summer. i think i'll have a hard time picking. a lot of people here have picked some really cute stuff!

ETA: this is the fabric i had found...i guess it's slightly different. the stripes are different widths.

Yes, to both of you, those are the Flower Fairies. :)

I have to say that I don't care for patchwork though. :( But now that I know there is fabric with this theme, I'll keep looking. Thanks to everyone who looked for me.

I've tried accessing the links too, because I want to see everyone's choices, but it's not working :( I wonder if it has something to do with our firewall. I'll have to ask dh when he gets home. He's the computer guy in the family.

Thanks for your suggestion though!

I wanted to note something for some of you that are looking for the really durable fabrics, something that you can beat up, etc.
If you are looking for pretty stripes, or neutrals you may want to check out the outdoor fabrics at The Fabric Finder.
http://thefabricfinder.com/OutdoorFabrics.htm

You will notice several familiar fabrics. These fabrics are used on lawn furniture and they can really survive a good bit. You will find that the many cottage companies and bag designers use these outdoor fabrics because they wear well. (they also add stiffness to the final product)

I've had several questions about the durability of fabrics, etc. How they hold up, and if you are wanting something that can take a beating, than this may be a good option for some.

I've had so many wonderful emails and I am so happy that I have this opportunity. Ali was so sweet to ask me to offer the coop to all of you and it is the first one she has hosted and the first one I have ever offered in 22 months of business.

Sincerely,
Kim

I love this fabric, and it's the fabric we're using in the nursery. I'm having a heck of a time choosing a coordinating fabric.

I was thinking of a sage green twill for bottom, raspberry gingham for a belt in between the two and raspberry gingham for the interior. But, not sure if that seems too boring.
