Find my fabric help

There is a fantastic new website created by Websites For Quilters that helps me find specific fabrics. FindMyFabric.com is an innovative fabric search engine that finds fabric and quilting supplies from hundreds of online quilt stores. You can search for products by either typing in words or by uploading a photo from a digital camera. If you use a photo, the search engine uses image recognition technology to find matching fabrics.
Why is this so cool? Imagine you ran out of a specific fabric and need a little more to complete your quilt. However, you don't know the name of the manufacturer, collection, or designer of that print. Local quilt shops have run out of it or don't carry that line and you are pulling your hair out looking for it. Before you go bald and your family goes crazy living with a must-find-that-fabric quilter, try FindMyFabric.com. Take a picture of the fabric, upload it, and within seconds locate an online retailer that has the fabric in stock. I love it! Any store that sells fabric and quilting-related products online can submit their products free of charge to FindMyFabric.com.

Thanks Cindy. I've been looking for a fabric in a quilters magazine and couldn't find it, now I know where to look. Put it in my bookmarks. Blessings, Susan
