I too like Amy Butler’s florals. I have started quite a collection of her fabrics. Her fabrics are just fun to work with on any project.
Do you have a favorite fabric designer? Yes several. Right now I am stuck on Kari Mecca’s sewing method…fun fun fun.
I love anything that has bright, bold patterns.
I can’t say I have just 1 favorite, I tend to like them all.
Can’t say as I have a favorite designer, although I do like Riley Blake. A favorite fabric manufacturer . . . now, that I do have! (Hoffman)
I like the Michael Miller fabrics. We don’t have access to a lot of the other designers, but these fabrics are readily available here.
Buy whatever looks good.
I got to fabric store…look at all the beautiful fabric…drool….sigh …drool..hope no one saw that…!!
Actually I love all fabric I dont think I have ever had a favorite designer but ya never know that could change….lol
I am leaning more towards some of the modern patterns that are coming out like Trenna Travis’ Bekko for Michael Miller.
I love all her handbags.
I really don’t have a favorite designer. I tend to look for what I like first and then check out who the designer is when I want to find coordinates. I love jewel tones and also like to work with themes, ie. butterflies, kittens, or sewing.
I don’t really have a favorite designer. I tend to look at the fabrics and colors that go together for my projects. So I could easily have several designers prints in one projects.
Anything in a retro floral pattern.
I love Amy Butler florals and Jason Yenter bright prints.
Amy Butler is great, just wish she would add some reds instead of pinks every once in a while.

I absolutely love all the fabric designs that Lila Tueller produces. She has such a great vision and eye for patterns and hues.
I love them all!
I like pastels and jewel tones. I pick out the fabrics I like first.
Me & My Sister Designs is probably my favorite. Their different design lines mix and match with ones that are out of print. A big plus when I want to make something else that goes with the quilt I made last year! I’m also loving the newer modern designs by various manufacturers such as Birch Organics.
PS- Great bag pattern! I have some Egyptian fabric that would work up beautifully!
Love to make all kinds of bags and purses.

I tend to like the patterns and the feel of the fabric then a certain designer.
I like Amy Butler’s fabric. It’s modern but has a vintage feel at the same time.

I love Amy Butler, but I also love all beautiful fabric
Don’t have a fovorite, I just pick out colors I like.
Having been sewing for about 50 years, I have had many “favorites”. I’ve always been drawn to the Alexander Henry wonderful designs, though. Somehow, they always remind me of places or people in my life. Many bring great memories. Amazing what print fabrics can do….
Love Amy Butler fabrics and patterns!!
no I seem to like almost all of them
I have this terrible illness of loving fabric and yarn, so whatever designer is out there I love it.
Riley Blake, Amy Butler and Lila Tueller…that’s just to name a few. Too many to list.

I love all fabric and love Amy Bulters patterns… I don’t really have any one favorite designer though they are all so lovely
It is so hard to pick just one. I enjoy Amy butler, Kaffe Fassett for Children’s clothing. I love Ricky Tims and many more for quilting. So many to chose from.
