Rachel, please don’t worry about fabric show and tell ever becoming boring, especially not with liberty prints! If there are people complaining, just tell yourself you are not here for them and move on. I think I’m safe in saying that the majority of us love listening to you and looking at your stash and your projects and your process and everything.!
Yes, yes, yes!!! Am new to your channel but am thoroughly enjoying seeing your haul and the quilt show , as well as your other videos. I can safely say we have the same taste in colors and prints! And I am learning a lot from you too! Thank you for sharing your quilting and craft life with us! ❤🙏
Well done Rachel. You have lots of loveliness there to be getting on with. Looking forward to seeing them all over the time which lies ahead. I was one of the subscribers who came to chat. It was lovely to meet you and your sister. Happy Sewing. Xxx
Please don't apologise Rachel, a fabric haul is NEVER boring & I love seeing fabric that I perhaps wouldn't normally be drawn to. Loved the Liberty, Cotton Patch & Bramble Patch stuff (as per usual) but also the indian prints from Cloth Atelier (the second word is pronounced at-tell-ee-ay). The block printing kits were great discovery & I can't wait to see what you & your sis do with them. Also, you spend your hard-earned cash how you wish ma belle & you are extremely productive so it's never wasted. Merci beaucoup for this great video xxxx
Never forget that fabric gives everyone joy…I can’t get to the festival of quilts in person but your videos and your enthusiasm is so infectious that I feel like I have shared the experience of the quilt festival. Thanks for all the time and effort that goes into sharing your impressive haul on UA-cam.
Rachel, we also saved $$ the whole year to go to a show. Don't ever apologize for spending your money on what you Love. It is "your business" on what you spend your money on. If we go to a plant shop my Husband says "we came here to buy plants". It is the same for you and fabrics. You saved and went there to buy. I loved that 1st green fabric that you held up. ✌🏻♥️
You show how much you enjoy this adventure and you carry us along with you. Thank you for that. I caught you a few weeks ago and enjoyed your videos and your trips.
I'm enjoying your fabric show and tell. It gives me a chance to see new things. I also love working with small pieces. I think they give your project more character. I'm new to your channel and I'm really enjoying what I'm seeing.
Love your haul! So glad you had a wonderful time at the festival. I think it makes sense to buy things when you see them in person. No guilt allowed! 😍
Thanks for sharing all your purchases. We all want to share our excitement when we get new treasures and no doubt lots of your followers have enjoyed seeing everything like I have 😊
It was lovely to see you at Alice Caroline on Friday Morning. Your sister was great at getting scraps for you. I was very good on Thursday, I got a couple of smaller kits and some accessories for my machine and didn’t spend much at all and my husband said you’ve come all this way and can’t get any of this stuff at home, buy it. That was a big mistake! He also talked me into getting the 100 block kit and book from Alice Caroline which totally blew the budget. She was lovely and did sign my book and she threw in some free fabric. I think to shut my husband up, he likes to negotiate at these things. Like you I’ve been saving up to go and had a list. The problem was all the things I bought that weren’t on the list! 😂I got some of the Indian blocks and a block printing kit. Did you see the sewing themed blocks? I got some of them and some floral blocks. I think we picked the same paint colours. I also got lots of bag making supplies from purple stitches and I got those magnetic clasps, those little purses with them are too cute. I’m glad I did my priority shopping on Thursday as a lot of shops were sold out of the things I bought when I went back around on the Friday. The highlight of my trip was meeting Jenny Doan, Natalie and Misty. They were so lovely, Jenny was the first quilter I followed on UA-cam. It was definitely a great experience.
You did very well on your purchases. I am not sure I would have been as good as you if I had been there. Please never feel the need to apologize for buying beautiful fabrics because you always do beautiful projects with them.
Rachel I just love you. OMG I just love looking at what you bought (your stash) at the festival of quilts. I'll look forward to watching you and your sister with the Indian printing. I just came across your channel recently. I'm going to a quilt festival in Northern Ireland in November this year and you have just given me great ideas on what to look out for. Thank you Rachel. 🥰
What fun! I'm vicariously purchasing fabric just by watching your vlog 😄. I live in a country where quilting fabrics are limited and expensive. I really enjoy all your content.
WOW WOW WOW!!!! I love all your stuff! Please do show us a video of you and your sister using those block prints. I love the ones you picked out. So pretty. I love the paints too! I must say that you had a great time at the show and picked up a lot of nice things. Liberty fabric was my favorites. Great video. Now you can complete lots of projects! Thank you for sharing. Oh yea, the cow doll is so adorable. Can’t wait to see it made. Happy Sewing! 💕🧵😍🐮 PS - By Annie zippers are great.
Hello Rachel, I stopped you in your tracks [ on Saturday] a few minutes before it closed for the day. It was so lovely to see you. Thank you for spending time to have a chat and a photo. I loved seeing this video with all of you purchases. I must say, I went a bit mad myself as I bought a Horn sewing table as well as some lovely fat quarters, patterns etc. I was trying to be mindful about what I was buying like yourself. Looking forward to seeing your next video. Debbie from Brighton x
Loved seeing all of your haul! Can’t wait to see the projects you’re going to make from these lovely fabrics. Please do a video of the block printing - I’m so interested in this process. I’m also a big time bag maker so I love seeing your bag projects - I love unique zippers & zipper pulls. Thank you for sharing everything.
Wonderful haul! Good for you. Don’t apologize for your haul. You saved up and as a result you saved in the long run with all your future makes. There are more expensive hobbies than quilting and stitchery believe it or not. So enjoy.
It was I that asked you the name of the Kim McLean Flower Garden Quilt. The pattern is dated 2009. Guess what I found a complete kit with the pattern and all the fabric (13 yards). I only needed to buy background fabric. So thank you for your help. I was so pleased to find it. I think your buys are treasures. And treasures should be enjoyed. Quilt market only comes around once a year. I’m in the USA. I used to be a vendor at the International Quilt Markets. They are some of my best memories. Thank you for sharing your memories with me.
Absolutely loved watching. In America, we have a 5 day expo with classes all day long and hundreds of vendors. It is held at the fairgrounds in Puyallup,, Washington. I used to drive there from my home state of Idaho. It was a full days drive. My daughter who lives in the Seattle area, would accompany me. We would be loaded down with all kinds of goodies. Doesn't matter what you spend, as long as you use it. There. Is a great online quilt store with lots of 30s fabrics in Prosser, Washington. I believe it is called A Quilted Basket. Look it up. 30s fabrics are my favorite, too.
Oh! I have been to that Puyallup show, way back...with some of my quilt group gals... it was great! We are from B.C. Canada, so not too far of a drive, over the border, maybe 2.5 hours? This U.K. show though...wow... wouldn't that be fun...they have a lot of different fabric there, that I have not ever seen here...
I only had the Thursday at the show, but still managed to spend a small fortune! Love see what you purchased, and totally agree about buying larger cuts of fabric too!
Rachel I think you better quit talking and start sewing, you bought enough for a couple of years 😍 I love it!!! I just came back from MIssouri quilt co from a 2 day visit, and feel so much better, because I didn’t buy as much as you did. By the way you would love shopping in Hamilton US. I really love your channel💕🌷
I love listening to you, you're so bubbly and enthusiastic. Thank you for mentioning the companies that you bought from ; I'm also interested in 1930s style prints.
Oh, Rachel, I don’t know what to comment on first! All your purchases are amazing, and I look forward to seeing how you use them. Thanks to this video and the one from last year, I have decided to go to one of the American Quilter’s Society shows that is closest to me. I’ll be going by bus with members of my quilt guild, so it will be loads of fun. I’ve been to smaller quilt shows sponsored by local guilds where the quilts are amazing, but there aren’t many vendors. I should leave my credit card at home and bring only the cash I am willing to spend….we’ll see!
That sounds like such a fun time! It is good to go with a budget in mind... although I suspect most people go over that slightly but it's hard to resist with so many wonderful vendors in one place
Ive been splurging thispast month I love repro prints and I've been lookingat ALL the hauls lately! I stopped quilting after hubs passed and was knitting. Now I'm sorting projects and getting things done! TY for the epp , as I've been working on a Flower Garden top ! One row to attach and then more slow stitching 😂 Its so nice to enjoy the process isn't it ? 🎉❤ Im watching this again as my budget is shot ! 😂
Thank you Rachel. I love that you get such joy out of your craft and inspire others, including me, to create more. You can never have enough fabric, especially if you like making scrappy quilts. I think Jen Kingwell says the more fabrics you use the better, then add a few more. Good luck with all your projects. Can’t wait to see what you create.
Looks like you had an absolute blast. Thanks for showing all your goodies. I am in the US and have recently fell in love with the 1930 fabric too. I just bought a book call The Farmers Wife and plan on making all 99 blocks to make a quilt using the 1930's fabric. So excited
Oh I just stumbled upon your channel! Your video was wonderful and I know I've found a kindred spirit, a sister from another mother. I could look at and touch fabric 24/7 if possible. ❤
Great video Rachel. I was at the show on the same days as you and was disappointed that I didn’t see you - it’s such a big show. Like you, I was shopping for specific quilts and I’m pleased with the fabrics I bought xx
This was so fabulous! Loved seeing all of what you bought and the previous videos of the show. we have 2 a year here in Washington state. One is more focused on quilting than the other, but the next is not until November! Lots to make before that to get ready, of course. Thank you for sharing everything.
Nice haul. I live in farm country in the midwest of US and I have a large collection of original 1930's Feed sack fabric that I started collecting about 30 years ago. I do use it somewhat, it is surprisingly still sturdy.
Don't worry I live in United States and I just went 2 weeks ago on a vacation/sew retreat at Missouri Star for 4 days and also done some serious damage shopping for fabric while I was there your not alone buying fabric love your videos.
I would love to go to Missouri Star. I bought their Rotary Cutter, and it feels so much better than any others I have. It would cost me quite a lot from the UK, so not sure if will happen. 😊
I learned long ago not to make excuses for purchasing fabric. Your prices on the items seen so far are reasonable. I moved to Spain with 53 containers of fabric. Quilting here is definitely not done but by few. I bought and traded fro two years before moving and sadly eyesight has changed and am stuck with thousands of different quilt shop fabrics. Southern Spain is more fun in the sun which I am not. Just enjoy your purchase. Your work is beautiful
Wow I love what you have bought, and especially that you have told us where things came from. I have been rapidly scribbling down suppliers to get things from…thank you!!❤
Wow, so there's no way to reach through my monitor and snag some of your haul. Shucks. You have lovely tastes in fabric. thank you for sharing your adventures with us. I can't wait to see what make with all your goodies.
Fab video as usual. You got some amazing bargains and I can't wait to see what projects you have in store for us all. Defo going to go to FOQ for a few days next year. Have a good weekend xx
Love your haul! It's so lovely seeing what you've bought. I'm gutted you don't know where the last fabrics are from. They are just adorable! I love that retro 30s style too. Oh and NEVER boring! Xxx
Just found your video. Loved it. Will be watching much more. Thank you for sharing your fabric haul with all of us. Love your enthusiasm and there is no color like PINK, also my favourite!😊❤
Really enjoyed this video, you saved up all year you deserved to buy pretties! Don't apologise, you saved up so ignore those who might say something!! I am jealous as you got some gorgeous fabrics. Im still recovering from surgery so I couldn't make it this year....next year definitely!!! Think im going to start saving now, no more book buying, lol!! Have a lovely week!!xxx
"Atelier" is a French word for studio or workshop, and it's pronounced Uh-telly-yay 😁 Love your purchases! We have to make the most of being able to see (and feel!) fabrics at shows, because there are so few real-life quilt shops around....At least, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!!!
I've seen some Indian block printing & thought it would be something I'd like to try but I already have so many different hobbies I really can't get addicted to another one... until you show us an amazing video with beautiful results & I'll be hooked! 😂
Hi Rachel, i went to the Festival of Quilts from Spain last year, i was there 3 days as well and had to book another suitcase into the Hold 😂. Bought enough to last a few years Glad you enjoyed it cant wait to see what you make.
There are so many projects upcoming now as I'm determined to use the things I've brought, whereas in previous years, I didn't want to cut into the fabric 🤣
Really enjoyed seeing all that you bought. It must be so tempting. I know what I am like when I go into a fabric shop, dread to think what I would spent at Festival of Quilts
Loved this. Couldn't get to FoQ this year but plan on next year for 'vacation'. The last time I went, I used what looks like a wheeled golf club bag. Some folks use them for groceries as well, but I got mine on Amazon and it lets me "fill 'er up" to the brim every day and then when done for that day, it gets emptied in the hotel room for the next day's purchases. The wheels really save my shoulder and they are quite roomy so lots of space for lots of fabric and quilting supplies. Hope to see you there next year!!
That video was just delightful! Your enthusiasm and excitement was infectious and just made my day. It has been awhile since I have been to a large quilt show but I am the same, if you can afford it go for it and enjoy all your fun and special purchases.
Rachel, I loved seeing your shopping haul, so many great pieces of great fabric.I know how hard it is to hold back when there is so many great things to purchase, great buying though. Here in Australia everything craft wise has unfortunately escalated in price as well. I look forward to seeing all the amazing projects that you have planned.
Thank you for sharing your shopping bundles. Well done! I also purchased the block painting, look forward to your video. I’m so glad to have met you, a real pleasure. You’re welcome for the little gifts, glad you like them😊
Rachel, please don’t worry about fabric show and tell ever becoming boring, especially not with liberty prints! If there are people complaining, just tell yourself you are not here for them and move on. I think I’m safe in saying that the majority of us love listening to you and looking at your stash and your projects and your process and everything.!
Absolutely spot on! @beckyweaver3529

Boring? Gosh no Rachel, I NEVER get bored looking at fabric! That block printed bag that you had is just GORGEOUS!
Love all your purchases
I'm enjoying your fabric show and tell. It gives me a chance to see new things. I also love working with small pieces. I think they give your project more character. I'm new to your channel and I'm really enjoying what I'm seeing.
No judgement’s here just pure enjoyment having watched a great haul from the Quilt Show- well done!
What am amazing time you've had! It's such a shame I now live so far away. Thanks for putting all the links up, I'm off to have a nosy 😂
Fabulous Fabulous, Mrs Billings coverlet ,oh my goodness that is heaven . Cant wait till you get stuck into that.
Love your haul! So glad you had a wonderful time at the festival. I think it makes sense to buy things when you see them in person. No guilt allowed! 😍
Thanks for sharing all your purchases. We all want to share our excitement when we get new treasures and no doubt lots of your followers have enjoyed seeing everything like I have 😊
I know how happy fabric buying makes me feel, so no judgement whatsoever from me. Enjoy your purchases and the creativity they will spark.
Absolutely lovely haul and creative inspiration ❤
The rolled bundle is Amy Butler 😊
I am SO jealous!!! You must have been smiling all the way home! Good for you.

I loved seeing all of your purchases! Don't worry about buying too much--just enjoy!
Thank you!
Looks like you are going to be making some beautiful things! My favorite part of this video was the Liberty fabrics! ❤
So glad you had a great time and your haul was awesome 👏 ❤
Love watching this! The 30’s prints are adorable. 🤩
I feel drunk on fabric 😂. Totally awesome haul, I loved all of it 😍
Hello Rachel, I stopped you in your tracks [ on Saturday] a few minutes before it closed for the day. It was so lovely to see you. Thank you for spending time to have a chat and a photo. I loved seeing this video with all of you purchases. I must say, I went a bit mad myself as I bought a Horn sewing table as well as some lovely fat quarters, patterns etc. I was trying to be mindful about what I was buying like yourself.

Loved having you with me ❤️

Rachel I think you better quit talking and start sewing, you bought enough for a couple of years 😍 I love it!!! I just came back from MIssouri quilt co from a 2 day visit, and feel so much better, because I didn’t buy as much as you did. By the way you would love shopping in Hamilton US. I really love your channel💕🌷
I love listening to you, you're so bubbly and enthusiastic. Thank you for mentioning the companies that you bought from ; I'm also interested in 1930s style prints.
Thank you Linda 💕
Boring? Not for 1 second. I was absolutely drooling over your purchases. I stumbled onto this video and now I MUST subscribe. 👏👏
Oh, Rachel, I don’t know what to comment on first! All your purchases are amazing, and I look forward to seeing how you use them.

The Indian stamp blocks fascinate me. Thanks so much for showing these! I’m a new subscriber from the USA.
Ive been splurging thispast month I love repro prints and I've been lookingat ALL the hauls lately! I stopped quilting after hubs passed and was knitting. Now I'm sorting projects and getting things done! TY for the epp , as I've been working on a Flower Garden top !

Oh my goodness! I am so happy to hear that Lilyrose will soon offer international shipping!
If you follow me on IG I will post about it on my stories once she starts doing the international 💕
The printing blocks are beautiful also!
Looks like you had an absolute blast. Thanks for showing all your goodies. I am in the US and have recently fell in love with the 1930 fabric too. I just bought a book call The Farmers Wife and plan on making all 99 blocks to make a quilt using the 1930's fabric. So excited
Had an absolute brilliant time! 1930s fabrics are just the best... I can't resist everytime I see some.
Aww we Ruby Star love it
I'm happy for you. ❤
Oh I just stumbled upon your channel! Your video was wonderful and I know I've found a kindred spirit, a sister from another mother. I could look at and touch fabric 24/7 if possible. ❤
Wow wow what a fantastic haul. You are going to be busy. Love ❤️ what you do. Keep up the good work 👏 😊
Great video Rachel. I was at the show on the same days as you and was disappointed that I didn’t see you - it’s such a big show. Like you, I was shopping for specific quilts and I’m pleased with the fabrics I bought xx
A wonderful haul!! Love the fabric colors and designs.

I hope you have a great time in November!
Really enjoy your enthusiasm for beautiful fabrics and the Quilt show. Love your cute smile and giggles!! You make me smile!!
just found your channel, such fun and your voice is soothing and relaxing. I listen to your tips while crafting
Love a good fabric hall. The pink floral pack you got in the beginning looks like an Amy butler collection
Nice haul. I live in farm country in the midwest of US and I have a large collection of original 1930's Feed sack fabric that I started collecting about 30 years ago. I do use it somewhat, it is surprisingly still sturdy.
Don't worry I live in United States and I just went 2 weeks ago on a vacation/sew retreat at Missouri Star for 4 days and also done some serious damage shopping for fabric while I was there your not alone buying fabric love your videos.
What retreat were you at? I was there in July for a Christmas in July retreat.
I would love to go to Missouri Star. I bought their Rotary Cutter, and it feels so much better than any others I have. It would cost me quite a lot from the UK, so not sure if will happen. 😊
Yaaaas! Missouri Star is dangerous!!!
Just discovered your videos. What a treat! Loved your shopping haul…also love your necklace❤️
I learned long ago not to make excuses for purchasing fabric. Your prices on the items seen so far are reasonable. I moved to Spain with 53 containers of fabric.

You are such a delight!
I love every bit of your haul!
I'm not able to go to the FoQs but it was lovely to see what you had bought. Thank you 😊
Wow I love what you have bought, and especially that you have told us where things came from. I have been rapidly scribbling down suppliers to get things from…thank you!!❤
@rachelhamill3452 you are welcome! All of the places I brought from are linked in the video description 💕
Wow, so there's no way to reach through my monitor and snag some of your haul. Shucks. You have lovely tastes in fabric. thank you for sharing your adventures with us. I can't wait to see what make with all your goodies.
All your fabrics were beautiful 😍 ❤
Fab video as usual. You got some amazing bargains and I can't wait to see what projects you have in store for us all. Defo going to go to FOQ for a few days next year. Have a good weekend xx
Love your haul! It's so lovely seeing what you've bought. I'm gutted you don't know where the last fabrics are from. They are just adorable! I love that retro 30s style too. Oh and NEVER boring! Xxx
Just found your video. Loved it. Will be watching much more. Thank you for sharing your fabric haul with all of us. Love your enthusiasm and there is no color like PINK, also my favourite!😊❤
Pink is a way of life!! Welcome to the channel 💕
You're right, what happens in the festival stays at the festival 😂
Fortunately for us you shared all the beauties you bought 😅
When I showed my partner, i skimmed a few things off and covered a few price tags 🤣 but he never even asked how I spent... thank goodness
@@stitchwithrachel I would have done the same 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love the fabrics , it will keep you going for a while.
It sure will!
Really enjoyed this video, you saved up all year you deserved to buy pretties! Don't apologise, you saved up so ignore those who might say something!! I am jealous as you got some gorgeous fabrics. Im still recovering from surgery so I couldn't make it this year....next year definitely!!! Think im going to start saving now, no more book buying, lol!! Have a lovely week!!xxx
That's a shame that you couldn't make it this year, something to look forward to for next year and like you say, save for 🤣
Love your enthusiasm!
Too much fun.....I look forward to the block printing video
"Atelier" is a French word for studio or workshop, and it's pronounced Uh-telly-yay 😁 Love your purchases! We have to make the most of being able to see (and feel!) fabrics at shows, because there are so few real-life quilt shops around....At least, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!!!
Oh, I made the lunch bag some 5 or 6 years ago and still using it, great project!
That's good to know that it has lasted you well 💕
Do not apologize for a good program and I was watching you tour the quilt fest. Thank you for taking me along for free. I loved it.
You are so welcome!
Your going to be very busy this year Rachel, you picked up some lovely fabric and it's mind blowing the ideas it's given me x
I loved seeing your purchases and hearing your plans for them.❤
I've seen some Indian block printing & thought it would be something I'd like to try but I already have so many different hobbies I really can't get addicted to another one... until you show us an amazing video with beautiful results & I'll be hooked! 😂
Hi Rachel, i went to the Festival of Quilts from Spain last year, i was there 3 days as well and had to book another suitcase into the Hold 😂. Bought enough to last a few years Glad you enjoyed it cant wait to see what you make.
Good for you Rachel wish I had have been there looking forward to seeing what you make nx❤
There are so many projects upcoming now as I'm determined to use the things I've brought, whereas in previous years, I didn't want to cut into the fabric 🤣
lovely haul of fabrics cant wait to see the results .you should not feel guilty we all need some pleasure if we can wish i could of gone to foq.
Really enjoyed seeing all that you bought. It must be so tempting. I know what I am like when I go into a fabric shop, dread to think what I would spent at Festival of Quilts
I'm like a kid in a sweet shop!!
Oh wow what a Great haul. Good grief, I can’t believe you went the 4 days 🤣🤣
Loved this. Couldn't get to FoQ this year but plan on next year for 'vacation'. The last time I went, I used what looks like a wheeled golf club bag. Some folks use them for groceries as well, but I got mine on Amazon and it lets me "fill 'er up" to the brim every day and then when done for that day, it gets emptied in the hotel room for the next day's purchases. The wheels really save my shoulder and they are quite roomy so lots of space for lots of fabric and quilting supplies. Hope to see you there next year!!
Loved seeing your haul!
All dat kislux bags sssssoooooooo gorgeous
I love vicarious shopping trips
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your generous gift 💕 it truly means the world to me
Love everything
Thank you for sharing- I agree one day is not enough - I hardly bought anything as ran out of time so going for two days next year .
That video was just delightful! Your enthusiasm and excitement was infectious and just made my day. It has been awhile since I have been to a large quilt show but I am the same, if you can afford it go for it and enjoy all your fun and special purchases.
Rachel, I loved seeing your shopping haul, so many great pieces of great fabric.I know how hard it is to hold back when there is so many great things to purchase, great buying though. Here in Australia everything craft wise has unfortunately escalated in price as well. I look forward to seeing all the amazing projects that you have planned.
Thank you for sharing your shopping bundles. Well done! I also purchased the block painting, look forward to your video. I’m so glad to have met you, a real pleasure. You’re welcome for the little gifts, glad you like them😊
