The triangles are all sewn into blocks so now the webbing will start and there will be a quilt top soon. I'm still intending to add a border of the white dotted fabric at the top and bottom.
I got an email yesterday from Sew Colorful that there is a new group of fabrics for preorder called 'From the Archives' as in Kaffe Fassett fabrics archives, before there was the collective of 3 designers. I decided to see how many I have in my stash that will be in the reissued older fabric designs. I ended up with 18 out of the 24 offered. He didn't reissue all of the colors of each print, just his choice. I have over a yard of each of the stripes in the middle row smaller pieces of some of the others. My favorite is the bottom right red print which I have less than a half yard of. I think he should have reissued the light blue and the black of this print too.
Some that I don't have are the stripe (top left) in red, bubbles (top right) in light blue, and another color of the floral on the bottom right. There is one more pattern called Samarkand that I don't have in any of the 3 colors he chose. These fabrics will be available in December so they are taking preorders now. Kaffe has been reissuing his older prints for a few years now.

Love those zig-zags--they appear to be 3-D to me;)))
Only 48 this morning with an overcast sky--Really chilly...
You got a nice selection of new fabrics to play with, Wanda...such beautifully vivid colors!! Have fun :)))
Hugs, Julierose
The white dotted borders will look great! When I scrolled down I thought aww there's her bright colors!🤣
Love that white dotted fabric with the plaid and colors. You have an impressive stash of Kaffe!
What wonderful progress on your Zig-Zag quilt!!
There used to be a wonderful website called Missing Fabrics and you could send a photo in of the fabric you hoped to find, and kind folks from all over would peruse their stashes and let you know if they had some to send or sell. Sadly the woman who ran the site retired.
56*F here this morning. Ah, an early autumn!
Hugs!
The zig zag top is looking great.
Enjoying the progress photo’s of your zig~zag, I really like the plan of bordering the top and bottom . And KF fabrics couldn’t be more eye catching and vibrant.
nice that you can still get the fabrics that are the older ones that you want
LOVING the zig zag!!! I don't think I have any of the re-release fabrics you've shown. That's okay though - I still have plenty to work with.
I just cut into a FQ of that purple stripe! And you know how much I like the green zigzags.
Wanda, since you love Kaffe fabric, you may want to look at the bolts, and 1/2 yd bundles of Kaffe that are in stock at QuiltedTwins, @$12.50/yd. They have nearly 900 bolts of it; (FQ, J-rolls, too?). (No affiliation)
I love seeing how you use it!
