Desperately seeking seersucker

Sunny,

I'm so sorry that I don't have this to send to you.

I hope someone else does have some on hand,

One trick if you don't find the matching seersucker (what on earth does that name mean any way???) maybe you could consider a totally different color/fabric heart with the label or the baby's name and birth date or something along those lines. They always say- if you can't match it then contrast it. ;-)

Hope you find what you are looking for!

Leslie & The Furbabies >> Hi, I messed up a little five-inch heart and there is no fabric left

Can you copy another of the hearts on your computer? Maybe some Bubble Jet or a sheet designed for labels would work.

I would love to help but it's been a long time since I even saw seersucker. Leslie's idea to make the 4th heart very special should do fine. Anna Belle's suggestion for copying one on a Treasures sheet would work too if you have a nice printer - mine's not so hot. Or maybe not. I can't think how you'd make it pucker. This question is too hard. Can we have an easy one next? Polly

From Wikipedia with reference to the New American Heritage Dictionary: "The word came into English from Hindi, which originates from the Persian words "shir o shekar," meaning "milk and sugar", probably from the resemblance of its smooth and rough stripes to the smooth surface of milk and bumpy texture of sugar"

Thanks, everybody. I actually managed to rescue the heart in question. Just took a little .... fiddling with some stitches on my Pfaff. It's a friend's project that she's making for a friend of her daughter. The friend just had a little girl and this little quilt is going to be sooooo feminine and lovely. I had so much fun working on it with her. Now I want to buy seersucker on Ebay (where there is TONS of sweet vintage seersucker, but a bit pricey) and make something for a baby girl. I don't know any baby girls, but that never stopped me before. Somewhere in the world is a baby girl who needs a sweet, light, perfect little quilt to be wrapped in and I'm just the crazy lady to make it. :)

Love ya all, Sunny

I wish I had some to send you. But not an inch of seersucker in my stash.

Sunny, have you got pictures yet to show us? Would love to see them.
