I need 2 5/8 yards of this fabric:

http://www.robertkaufman.com/fabrics/isabella_knit/GVKS-8065-2/

My local Hancock Fabric didn't have enough and they can't order more.  I have been unable to find it online in black/grey, as shown in that link.  I can find it in green/yellow, which looks unappetizingly like green fried eggs.  It also comes in brown/brown, which is nice, but I can't find that either.

If anyone could find that much of that fabric, I'd be willing to toss in a bonus, perhaps make something for you as well.

Thanks.

I think so, Brain, but how will we get the Spice Girls into the paella?

I'll check out the Joann's on the way to my mom's tomorrow.

dazie

Cool.  I'd really appreciate it.  :)

I hate to say it- but it's one of the "Project Runway" signature fabrics.  But I have a perfect dress pattern for it.  *lol*

There's a Hancock (heh heh) Fabric here. I'll swing by tomorrow and take a look, too.

I'll probably be at Hancock this weekend shopping for stuff to make this:

I'll look for your stuff while I'm there.
we should have kept the quote pyramid up to rape Jessie in the face.

Those are AWESOME.  What a great idea!

I'm totally excited about it.  I wasn't sure if I was going to the party I was invited to, but now I have to.  I tried to talk Timothy into being one, too, but he doesn't know what they are.  I have failed as a mother.

You're going to end up with like 9 yards of the stuff now.

( Dazie...i'll check our local Joann, i like the B & W)

Thanks all!

A friend in NV said he found some- so DON'T BUY ANY!

If you do come across some, just get the phone number of the store and let me know.  *lol*

OK- the friend said his mom could order some, but it's a 15 yard minimum.

NOT THAT FAT YET.

So, if you have the time and the inclination, please feel free to keep looking.

I saw a shirt with either that or extremely close to that pattern at Burlington Coat Factory yesterday.  It was $5.99.  Want that instead?

I went there yesterday!  I got a black, white and gray argyle sleeveless turtleneck sweater that I'm wearing right now.

It was like that pattern, only it had sort of stripes where the fabric was more sheer and I believe it was 3/4 sleeve with a slightly shirred mock turtleneck.  I really liked it.

Alice

Gah, sorry Dazie.  I got a little preoccupied last night and forgot about it.  I'll drive over there today and see.

dazie

No problem- I kind of figured there were more important things on your mind.  :)

And there's absolutely no rush on this at all.  I just like the fabric and have a good dress pattern for it.

Joann did not have that material, but the manager gave me this web site, she thought it could be had there by special order?  I briefly looked on the site, but did not see any Kaufman.

we don't have a burlington coat store, noone here buys coats.

dazie

Thanks!  I'll go there now and take a look.

I don't know where in Florida you are, google says there are 24 Burlington Coat Factory's in Florida.  They don't sell only coats.  :)

The Burlington Coat Factory here is like an indoor flea market.

there are none within at least 60 miles or so...one closed about 5yrs ago in Vero Bch, about an hour north. I have been to a burlington in Plano Tx, i bought a very soft cashmere blend gray sweater, my daughter stole it.
