Excellent choices Mel. I love that Crystal Phoenix...who am I kidding? I love them all! LOL

Julie Balla said...

Me too - Crystal Phoenix is a gorgeous colour. What will you use it for?

XXXX YYYY said...

Crystal Phoenix is gawjus! Remind me, what are all three fabrics for??

Melissa Hicks said...

Crystal Phoenix is for Cirque des Cercles by InkCircles
Meditation is for Welcome to my Castle by X's & Oh's
Crystal Monet is for Kaleidoscope by Keslynn (not Tracy's version)

XXXX YYYY said...

Cirque will be utterly gorgeous on the Crystal Phoenix!! Like wow.!

Melissa Hicks said...

Cirque will be just as gorgeous on Crystal Monet too !!!!

Ah, I don't do sparklies any more. They make me itch.....sounds silly but they do.

Donna Williams said...

They are just gorgeous, aren't they?

And I'm really sorry about the sparklies, Claire. Who knew?

XXXX YYYY said...

That's my problem with Taj Mahal. The lovely opalescent from Sugar Maple Fabrics. I mean fine, so I use q-snaps but , the excess still gets onto my arms and I start to itch and then get blotchy and itch some more....pretty pathetic.

Melissa Hicks said...

Stitch wearing gloves? It sooo beautiful!

XXXX YYYY said...

They'd have to be right up to my elbows, so not practical. I'd rather just not use an opalescent.

Hi Mel,

LOL! There is no way I would EVER pitch fabric. I would just find someone who wanted any green fabric that showed up. Like that would be difficult with this group . . . NOT! They are beautiful though! Really love the blue/white swirled one - your right it would be perfect for The Castle.

Enjoy your new stash! Glad you had such a wonderful conversation with Claire! She is the bestest!

Melissa Hicks said...

Definitely Chele! I would never pitch fabric either - or burn it or run over it with the car - there's always *someone* who would want it and can use it !!!!

BTW my FOTM is all opalescents - so they all have metallic flecks through them ...

Michele Anderson said...

I just love the opalescents!! I just think the sparkle adds so much to the right pattern!! I used to get Silkweavers FOTM club but stopped them because I started doing such big projects that the small fabric didn't work for anything. Maybe someday I will sign up for the bigger FOTM's.

I get one piece of 18x13 and one piece of 18x26 inches each month. These are so far *usually* big enough for most of my projects ..... Gigi's M Sampler and Diane Jourdan's Thriller Sampler and Tracy's Garden Stars and ... not withstanding ......

Stephanie Flynn said...

What interesting colors! Love the Tangerine and the Sparkling Sundown for no other reason than they are different! Nice stashing!

Nancy Murdock said...

Lovely fall colors of the Carries Threads!! Do you have projects in mind for the wonderful fibers and fabrics?

Laura Landis said...

Gorgeous colors! I like the looks of the Sparkling Sundown best, I think, although the Meadow Mist is really cool and the Tangerine is just so out there and the the the the... Can you tell I just love them all?

Laura Landis said...

I've gotten one of these collaboration packs before and it was wonderful. Yours looks even better!!

Debbie Lord said...

Rosanne Derrett said...

I have this pack too and I love it to bits. Lots of 'my' colours!

Karen R said...

WOW!!! As always, Carrie's are just gorgeous! Of course, the DD and Ozarks aren't too shabby, either! Those two designs on the left, under the fabric, look really interesting. Great stuff in this!

Karen R said...
