Someone gave me fat quarters of this fabric. No info on the selvedge that I have. I can't remember who gave it to me or even when. I love it! If anyone knows the name of it or where I can go look for it, I'd appreciate it so much.
Thanks,
Linda

Linda,

It kinda looks like the orange and purple are pieced? If so, the orange looks like a design by Ricky Tims for Red Rooster. Here are some photos of the orange:

Scroll down this one to see the violet in his collection, which is different:

I didn't find anything for a checkered print (used quiltshops.com search).

Sharon,
Yes, it's sewn together into a 4 patch. I love the way those 2 colors look together & wanted to put the 4 patches with fussy cut prints.
Thank you so much cause this definitely looks like what I'm hunting. It's gorgeous fabric.

Glad I could help, Linda--I love ANY excuse to do fabric searches!

I went back today to look at some of Ricky's other fabrics and noticed that there is a purple and fuscia print that is mottled like the orange. If you go to quiltshops.com and use the search word Coloree there will be several different photos of it. He really did design some fabulous stuff!!!
