Not A Usual Pick For Me, But I Love It!

When this fabric line, Indian Summer from Art Gallery fabrics was first released, it didn't jump out to me.
Southwestern style is not my thing. The more I seen it online, the more it reminded me of a certain someone. I kept thinking, "I really should get that and make her a quilt". I waited and waited...and it came up on sale at an awesome price at Vintage Fairytale Fabric . I couldn't pass it up. This was my first time buying from this shop and I love it. I will be checking their inventory often. The price was great (sale is over now I believe), shipping was fast and they have great customer service. They also tucked a nice little pen and tape measure in my order, extra points for them! Anyhow, I was pleasantly surprised with this fabric in person. The colors are so pretty. And of course, like all Art Gallery fabrics, it's so soft. I love their fabrics, such great quality!
I also chose the Nocturnal Art Gallery Pure Elements solid to mix in and it matches perfectly. The solid tan color is Moda Bella Stone, it also fits perfectly! The solids were on sale as well, so I grabbed some Bella white, we can always use white.
I have discovered lately that sometimes the prints I would least likely pick end up making the prettiest quilts. This has been added to my mile long "to do" list!
