Ready For Action by Alexander Henry

August 11, 2010 by Scarlett Burroughs

After reading The Cranky Quilter’s  post about Alexander Henry’s new fabric line The Brady Bunch, I went looking for some. On all things Henry’s page at thefat quarter Shop I did not find any Brady but I did find Ready For Action in Blue. What would you make with this yardage?

    I think this would be great for pot holders and oven mitts – he can obviously handle the heat 🙂

    What would I make? How about a fantasy life in which I can go out shopping for fireman fabric, while my humky, shirtless, ax-wielding hubby and our adorable Dalmation puppy keep all the other grabby shoppers at bay. That works for me, yes/no?
