See Dick and Jane. Run Jane run.
Did you learn to read with Dick and Jane books? I did. I remember sitting in first grade reading class. First slowly pronouncing every word as I learned to read. Then being able to read the whole book without missing book.
Well, Michael Miller has designed a line of fabric - Dick and Jane. I think I am in love! The whole fabric line is incredible! I can already visual several quilts or play mats made with the fabric. Too bad I'm on a No Buy pledge until April. But I'm going to start marking the days until I can buy the fabric.
I know Hancock's of Paducah has a 12 FQ pack of some of the fabric, but I want a piece of every design.
OK, OK, I'll stop salivating now. You may go back to your regularly scheduled quilting.

Yep - I learned to read that way. Yep, I've seen the fabric. Yep, I love it. Yep, I'm limiting my buying. I'm saved only by the fact that I don't know what I'd do with it. Strange comment - I know - coming from someone who buys fabric all the time without knowing what I'll do with it!

I like it too - all of it - those "go withs" are so neat. (I have a soft spot for polka dots and geometrics) I'll grab some at my LQS (if the get any) with my gift certificate - or not at all...
I am so glad you posted this! I love Dick and Jane. I have some framed cards around my house. The artwork is wonderful!
I wish I would have learned to read Dick and Jane. I am the right age, but for some reason my school district didn't go that route. Ilove the graphic of these books -- may have to have the fabric anyway *s*
i remember the Dick and Jane books. The range of fabrics are lovely.
It was Janet and John in the UK. The fabrics are gorgeous.
Yes yes, Dick and Jane and Sally. I can remember what hard work that was to learn to read. And it was deadly serious because I was desperate to learn. It's darling fabric, Sweet P!
You may want to check Hancock's - I bought one of those polka dots at my Hancock's last summer so maybe they carry the whole "Dick & Jane" line. And if so, you can use your 40% coupons! ;c) Happy Weekend! ~Bonnie
