There is one like that here. I think it is drifting off towards paper crafts now and wont order from Moda again after not being able to get more of a bolt which sold well. It only sold the adhesive wadding when I last went in which I could end up wrapping myself in before it got near a quilt top! Your quilt is looking so good.
