I've noticed that now the taxi fabric is going out of print CQ have substituted a plain yellow fabric for the taxi one - but this wouldn't be detrimental to the original quilt design as you couldn't see the taxis anyway. <br /><br />I've promised my daughter a NYC subway quilt for when she goes off to uni back in England next year. She wants to pour over each subway stop with all her memories of them - of course her favourite is 86C/B as that's where she gets off each morning for her school, Dwight. <br /><br />You'll have to show me the bag when you're done, I'd love to see it :)Chris Dodsley @made by ChrissieDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07850681754516767449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6084345492228741132.post-20725546186131734232012-06-26T20:29:08.056-04:002012-06-26T20:29:08.056-04:00Isn't it just:)

Since I started quilting though I have thought about it a lot because I'm pretty sure there'll be a quilt fabric out there in just those colours! :)Chris Dodsley @made by ChrissieDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07850681754516767449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6084345492228741132.post-87249893401254315412012-06-26T11:37:01.088-04:002012-06-26T11:37:01.088-04:00Very cool fabrics!

That's one lucky kid! <br /><br />I also did a sort of little dance when I recognized the NYC subways print on the back, because I'm about to make a shoulderbag out of it. I couldn't resist picking a little of it up the last time I was at the City Quilter. :)Alisahttp://knitspinquilt.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6084345492228741132.post-5900135990082033612012-06-25T12:17:56.657-04:002012-06-25T12:17:56.657-04:00Hi Chrissie.
