henna garden rainbow

I did a bit of fabric shopping earlier this week....I had to add to my "henna garden" collection. I love, love, love Sandi Henderson's fabrics, all of them...LOVE. The first patchwork quilt I ever made (for myself!) was from her Ginger Blossom line. Then she came out with a print in one of her collections that she calls "henna garden". I loved it the first time I saw it...had to have it...I don't even remember what color it was, the first henna print that I bought....She has several colors in it now. :) After my little fabric shopping earlier this week I THINK I have all of them now.

My most recent henna garden purchase.






Look at all of it...........a rainbow of henna.............SIGH, SIGH, SIGH :)


A close up :)




I am really thinking of getting this pattern....what do you think? With the henna print above? Or maybe the darker brown?
Eventually I want to make a quilt out of all of my henna fabrics...no hurry though....I have enough quilts in my house but there is always room for more....I am currently working on a special quilt for my sister-in-law's cousin. It is from pieces of her mom's clothing....her mom passed away in May and my SIL and her cousin (Jenny) wondered if I could make something out of some of her clothes....I am going to reveal it soon...I think she is going to really, really like it...I hope so!
