Dropped by one of my Field's Fabrics last night (this is called "a
Field trip"). My quest was some openwork finished-edge lace to turn
into a Bertha collar for my tablecloth ballgown (the one with the
Christmas print and white poinsettias). Found it. (Field's has
everything.)
And they had a cotton print with sousaphones. No extraneous woodwinds
or glocks. Just sousaphones. And it's not subtle; the horns are about
2" tall, with lots of solid open space around them.
As a local coordinator of Tuba Christmas, this is a marvelous find.
The print is part of a line called "Marching Band" (big surprise) and
it comes in a bright royal blue, ivory, or Christmasy red, all with
yellow horns. Other prints show an entire marching band (but their
uniforms are the wrong color!).
I found several sources on the quiltshops.com search engine.
This will push me over the edge this year. I've been meaning to make
up a cardigan sweatshirt for TC...have the shirt, been collecting tuba-
euph print fabrics, know what I want to do...
