| Rachel's Tribute BOM ~ by Pam Buda for Marcus Fabrics |
The quilt above was designed to honor the lovely traditional red & green quilts made in the mid-nineteenth century. Many were appliqued, and many were pieced like this one. To truly replicate those traditional red & green quilts, I designed only one background print for this line. Unusual to do that, but you understand why.

ReplyDeleteThis is easy! I'm missing background fabrics!! I need you to hook me up with a quilt store for Rachel's Tribute BOM please. Thanks, Pam!!
ReplyDeleteI love bright reproduction fabrics with small prints, but it is bright green that I spend the most time searching for and buy whenever I see it.
ReplyDeleteOur LOQs carries a lot of the CW colors, but sadly lacking in shirtings and neutrals. Always on the hunt for some sweet shirtings.
ReplyDeleteI really lack grays. I don't think I have any - crazy! Your new bundle is beautiful. I love red and they look beautiful to me. Thank you for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteI love your reds, that is the color I would love to add to my stash. Still working on my Circa quilt blocks.
ReplyDeleteOhhhh.... I could not resist any red and green colors. These are my favorite colors!!! I would never say no to any greens and reds as well as any tonal backgrounds.
ReplyDeleteLove the new fabrics! What's missing from my stash?? Probably greens and grays... but I'm always on the lookout for reds as well. Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteMissing from my stash are grays, taupes and cheddar! The very ones you mentioned. Kathy Williams, Gaylord Michigan
ReplyDeleteI'm in a couple block swap groups and am always short on shirtings. I love the bubble gum pinks, neutral greys and taupes and don't have very many of any of these in my stash. Would love to have the chance to win this grouping. Thank you for the opportunity!!
ReplyDeleteGreens!, somehow I just don't have a lot of greens.
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Nancy

I always search for "dusty stormcloud blue" with tiny natural prarie-type scattered flowers.
ReplyDeleteI need some more greens similar to your colorway. I am starting to do some 1800's type quilts and am now collecting fabric.
ReplyDeleteI love all the colors, but your shirtings are my favorites. They work so well with all the reds of yours I have. A lovely collection!!
ReplyDeleteCan NEVER have enough shirtings!!!
ReplyDeleteI've been seeking light shirtings for my stash. They are such great backgrounds for CW prints and batiks. I really like this BOM, even all the small half square triangles!
ReplyDeleteI'd say my stash is missing greens and blues, although I can never have enough shirtings.
ReplyDeleteI love all fabrics that are 1800s reproductions. I don't have many greens.
ReplyDeleteLove your latest pattern. I would want to do it in blue combinations. I could use more yellow in my stash.
ReplyDeleteMy stash is missing purples. I love the color but don't buy it often. Maybe I will start looking for them now!
ReplyDeleteSandy A
Blue! A while back I was organizing my fabric and realized that I do not have alot of blue fabric. I don't know why because I like the color blue. Reds are my very favorite color. I'm always drawn to reproduction fabric and I just love a red, white and blue combination. Your pattern and fabric line are so beautiful. Thanks for the opportunity to win. Dolores, Michigan
ReplyDeleteBlues are missing from my stash. I don't know why because I like the color blue. I will have to build my stash with blue fabric. Reds are my favorite too. I drawn to reproduction fabric and a red, white and blue combination is always stunning. Thanks for the opportunity to win this nice prize. Dolores
ReplyDelete1st dream purple/purple small prints. The dense, purple from the land of batiks. I (we) have a reasonable number of lavenders or whimpy purples but no deeply saturated purples. 2nd dream, shirtings with backgrounds other than cream or carmel. Couldn’t we have light blue shirtings, or light yellow shirtings, or pink shirtings. Why do shirtings always have to be cream/carmel, if you can’t do that how about crisp white shirtings. Yes they exist but I sense cream/carmel are 90% of what us out there and white shirtings are 10%.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I have any fabrics in the blue-gray fabric and it's strange because I love those colors! Thank you for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteMore bubble gum pinks; one can never have enough of them. And then some rootbeer browns to go with them. I love pink/brown quilts and it is so hard to find fabric for them.
ReplyDeleteMy stash is missing greens and purples. I have Christmas greens but not too many other shades. I have almost no purples. My granddaughter continually tells me that I need more.
ReplyDeleteI definitely need more rich reds. Sarah's Dowry is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI can never get enough shirtings for my stash. Love the new fabrics--so yummy!
ReplyDeleteWell, my reds have the fewest fat quarters at the moment but I just started pulling blues for a very Scrappy quilt. I love all your fabrics and would treasure any. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI love this new collection! I love all your fabrics!
ReplyDeleteTaupe is one of the colors that I don't have a lot of.
Your reds, maroons and purples are my favorites.
Thanks for the giveaway, Pam!
I can always use more neutrals since I use so many and don't always remember to buy them. And I am always on the lookout for nice purples since they are so hard to find, and I love double pinks! Thanks for the opportunity to win!
ReplyDeleteRachael's Tribute prints are absolutely beautiful, a perfect mix of prints and those colors are wonderful. I love red and although I do have red in my stash, there never seems to be enough.
ReplyDeleteI love the Reds,so that's what I buy the most of. I'm lacking in the more neutral tones,also the blues.
ReplyDeleteMy mouth literally watered as I looked at the photos of your newest fabric line. How utterly gorgeous! My stash is sadly lacking in taupes and greys....I love shirtings but after thinking about things I have NO greys or mauve-ey purples. This post was pure eye candy...thank you!
ReplyDeleteYour Rachel's Tribute quilt is stunning! The piecing and quilting are amazing. Your Sarah's Dowry quilt would make a beautiful Christmas quilt - without screaming Christmas. In terms of fabrics in my stash - more gray and taupe would be helpful. I think they'd play nice with so many other colors. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteThe traditional reds are missing in my stash. I have brights and Christmasy ones, but no traditional reds. I just started about five years ago working with 19th century fabric replicas and have been enjoying the process of gathering some older patterns. So fun!
ReplyDeleteI need shirtings! And nuetrals! All of it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilts & fabrics! Surprised to see that I have the least amount of reds in my stash. Can never have too many tonal backgrounds or my new favorite taupe.
ReplyDeleteI always look for "dusty storm-cloud blue" with scattered small prairie flowers.
ReplyDeleteAt Christmas time I purchased reds, blacks, and creams. I know I need rusts, chocolates, and greens. As soon as I can I will get Cheddar and Chocolate, but that still leaves greens. Thank you for an opportunity to win.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely shirtings and tonal backgrounds. Seems like there is always never enough for backgrounds!! Rachel's Tribute is a beautiful collection!! Especially love the print that kind of looks like little pineapples!! =:)
ReplyDeleteYour new line of fabric looks awesome. The fabric I need the most is greens and cheddars. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI would like more black prints and dark navy prints. It's hard to find good black and navy prints.
ReplyDeleteI could definitely use some shades of purple-light or dark. Plus tonal greys. Can't wait to see the new fabrics!
ReplyDeleteThese prints are gorgeous! I wish I had more bubble gum pink and poison green. So hard to find that perfect shade. Thanks for the great giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI would like to have more neutral grays and taupes. I love the look of Diawabo taupes from Japan, and would love to have 18th century prints in that same soft color range. They'd play well with my other reproduction fabrics.
ReplyDeleteLove more shootings...can never have rung. Just love the mercenaries.
ReplyDeleteRachel's Tribute is stunning!! Leaves me in awe.
ReplyDeleteIs it silly for me to admit that I don't know if I could ever square up that many HSTs? ;)
Love the new line! My repro line is pretty full but could use grays and taupes. Thanks for all you do. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteTerrific fabrics! I always crave shirtings - specifically conversational prints!
ReplyDeleteI’m missing good yellow-cheddars, poison greens and who couldn’t use more shirtings?!?
ReplyDeleteI'd like more shirtings with reddish/cranberry coloring. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteWell....first of all....I LOVE red and green quilts! Can't seem to get enough of them...and have many of them on my quilty bucket list...both pieced and appliqued! I guess what's missing most from my stash is shirtings....I'm attracted to colors and prints, so I'm always adding that to my stash....but, a good quilt needs some light/neutrals to balance it all out...and for me, that would be shirtings rather than solids...
ReplyDeleteWhat a tough question, Pam! My answer would be blues .... but I completed my beautiful Mrs. Miller's Apprentice last month. How about some beautiful pinks?
ReplyDeleteI am missing reds in my stash. I have every other color family except red
ReplyDeleteI definitely would love more tonal backgrounds but I'm a sucker for any pretty reds, too! Thank you for the opportunity to enter!
ReplyDeleteI am always on the lookout for non-directional backgrounds as well as cheddar and purple small prints. Love all the small prints in your collections. They work so well when working with little pieces.
ReplyDeleteI always seem to be short on neutrals and shirtings, I love all your fabrics and the colors in Rachel's Tribute are beautiful. Thank you for a chance to win.
ReplyDeleteMaryAnn
I seem to be short of shirtings! My stash has minimal pink in it, too...mostly because its my least favorite color. I DO love those greens in you post tho! It'd be pretty awesome to win some of them!
ReplyDeletePam, Sarah's Dowry looks like the perfect Christmas quilt. Love it. I have been in the mood for more grays lately. I love the fabrics that are more muted. I think it helps give my new quilts that aged look right away.
ReplyDeleteAny more it seems I get more confused with computer stuff. I wanted to post to the Blog for the Sarah's Dowry give away so I hope I'm in the right place. I love all the fabrics in the Rachel's Tribute Collection and I would like to see more in the darker shades of burgundy. I also wouldn't mind the shades of gray and taupe.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the giveaway! Your fabrics are always so beautiful. I'm loving these reds here and that is something my stash would be cheered by :-) I'm always craving your shirtings though. They look lovely with red too!
ReplyDeleteI need more purples! A friend just finished a quilt in purples and grey that turned out beautiful! Then painted the bed room in grey with white trim to match the quilt! I have the grey, but need purples. Is it possible to buy just the pattern for the BOM? Or will that be released at a later date?
ReplyDeleteI am ALWAYS looking for backgrounds, and have recently started looking for reds as I think a pop of red looks good in any quilt.
ReplyDeleteHi Pam
ReplyDeleteLove your new collection!
I would like more bubble gum pinks but I’m thrilled with the new collection coming out soon with the light blues. So nice to see the cheddars and browns from that collection too!
I am always on the look out for tonal backgrounds. Never to seem to have enough. Thanks
ReplyDeleteFor some reason I don't seem to every get tired of shirtings, white, cream or tan. They are so versatile that they seem to go with what ever quilting project I am working on. Love the Rachel's Tribute quilt and the new line of fabric looks beautiful.
ReplyDeleteJust started a Pam Buda dedicated stash box that has a few shirtings and scraps from Circa 1880 quilt and the blues from Mrs. Miller's Apprentice. Any color would be a great addition. Really like your fabrics and designs.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, I am definitely short on neutral fabrics. It is so frustrating to realize after getting excited about a pattern that you don't have enough neutrals. But I just love your new line of reds and greens. Jan from MA
ReplyDeleteLove all your fabrics!! Thank you for a chance to win this GREAT give away!!
ReplyDeleteI actually have all the colors, but I don't have as much purple as my other colors. I also need more solids across the color ways. Nancy A: SewingGranda@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteBlues are what is needed in my stash. Don't have many and I'm not sure why because I love blue. Red is a favorite color of mine. I do love a red, white and blue quilt I'm always drawn to them. Love the pattern and fabric. Thanks for the opportunity to win. Dolores
ReplyDeleteRachel and Sarah fabrics and patterns resonate with me. I have a quilt my great, great grandmother made, an applique, in similar colors, traditional reds and greens. I am always on the look out to add more reds and greens to my stash.
ReplyDeleteI love the colors and small scale prints of Rachel's Tribute! I could probably use more pinks and cheddars in my own stash. I always seem to gravitate toward reds, blues and greens. Thanks for a chance to win!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful creams...they disappear as soon as they arrive!
ReplyDeleteI definitely could use more shirtings and some dead purples.
ReplyDeleteLove the pattern and repro fabric. I lie the idea that the pattern can go from planned, scrappy to Christmas. I would love to win the bundle and pattern to make an "old timey" quilt.
ReplyDeleteI just love your fabrics and I pick them up whenever I find them. I am especially fond of shirtings, but, I do love all fabric!!! Thanks for designing such wonderful fabric lines. Susan Darknell
ReplyDeleteI've been collecting light shirtings to use as backgrounds with CW fabrics, but they are also great with batiks. I usually don't make quilts with lots of open space, but this one is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI think I need some more greens, but I can also use reds and navys too!
ReplyDeleteI think I need more shirtings for my stash. I could also use some Bubblegum pinks. Red is my favorite colors. Thanks and I look forward to seeing you in Pigeon Forge soon.
ReplyDeleteGreens, cheddars, and pinks are the smallest collections in my stash. I love your fabrics, keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteCheddars and shirting are missing from my stash!
ReplyDeleteAll of your fabrics are so beautiful!
More neutrals and reds and greens are what I need in my stash. I love how you've designed these all with small prints to use in any project. They're a win win!
ReplyDeleteShirting fabrics are my go to. Thanks for opportunity.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to get the new book. I would love to receive the fast quarters one each day. Am anxious you see.
