** Voting is now closed. Thanks for playing! **
I felt certain Loulouthi would go through, shucks. I’m on 110 points.
This year’s Madness had so many unexpected twists and turns…a thrill ride for all of us modern fabric fans! My original brackets stopped yielding any points a couple of rounds ago, but voting was still a lot of fun.
p.s. Finished up with 77 points – Elite Eight just killed me.
Yay for Echo all the way!
Uuuu I didn’t score anything. This time Echo is my type – will see if correct:)
Finished with a grand total of 89 – looking forward to seeing the winner. I voted for Ruby, but I think Echo will win given it’s popularity on blogs. Both gorgeous fabrics. Thanks for holding this great competition, I loved seeing some forgotten about fabrics!
I picked Ruby, and am anxious to see who wins
Oh I’m so disappointed
I was so sure Loulouthi was going to make it all the way.
I’m a fan and purchaser of all Anna Maria Horner’s fabric lines.
