It's still my favorite brand. <br /><br />I bought lots of it there and still have some in great condition. However, the US wholesaler in Utah died. The only retailer who sells Natesh now is in North Wales and UK postage fees are outrageous.<br /><br />Anyway, both my late best friend and I were citizens of Aardvarkia, a happy place I'll always miss.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6100081209595153520.post-38163208091238260082014-11-21T09:47:54.696-05:002014-11-21T09:47:54.696-05:00Hi, Sunnie!

And I also love that you're willing to make changes along the way if you don't like the way a given pairing <i>looks</i>: I like to say that it's fine to judge things "by eye", because it's eyes that will be looking at and enjoying the quilt when it's done.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />E.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6100081209595153520.post-89150617446300069212014-06-01T10:40:51.944-04:002014-06-01T10:40:51.944-04:00Thank you E.!
