    Default Reaources for Older Fabrics

    I am looking for some obscure sources for out-dated fabric. I have contacted the manufacturer as well as the designer to no avail. The fabric collection was created in 2005 so I need to have a resource that handles this type of request for out-dated and no longer produced fabrics. You all know that as a quilter we never have just the right amount of fabric or the right colors for a quilt we are working on. I definitely fit this category as I am only working on UFO's this year.

    If you know the name of the fabric, I'd try etsy, ebay or just good old Google! If you want to post the name & a photo of the fabric here on the forum, there is a (slim) chance another forum member might have it.

    Good luck!!

    Try this website. MISSING FABRICS It will let you post a picture and a request for any fabric you are looking for at no cost whatsoever. I've had great success, 7 out of 10 times I have used this service!

    also, post a picture here; someone may just gave it in their stash!
