And that is just what I did - make strawberry freezer jam. I must say it is probably the best batch I've ever made. When Lori talked about her sweet little strawberries on her post yesterday I thought about my lovely jam and the fabulous strawberry fabrics that I have in my stash and decided to feature them for Fabric Friday today.
I must tell you I do have a lot of fabric with strawberries on it. And these are just a few of them. This strawberry fabric above is a thicker twill type weight that would be perfect for a bag.
I did show these last week to you but they are so beautiful and they fit the theme of the day so here they are again.
This is fabric I recently got in 3 colorways. I LOVE the blue and red the most. It also has cherries. My 2nd favorite fruit fabric.
I adore fabric with words and really like fabrics with patchwork, too. Isn't this pink and green sweet.
Here it is again. The words are flowers, pretty and strawberry. Very very sweet.
I have this oldie but goodie in 2 color ways. I really like strawberry blossoms, too.
It is amazing how many strawberry prints are out there. It is fun to have small scale strawberries and . . .
Large scale strawberries. Pretty sweet, especially when partnered with a little deer, blue bird, chick and flowers.
This tiny strawberry is one that I picked to put in my Jelly Roll-A-Long project.
I have this strawberry in 4 colorways. Just a bit of the orange, pink and blue but 2 whole yards of the white. I think it makes a fabulous neutral.
I found cherries are partnered with strawberries a lot of the time. And also partnered with dots. Fabulous fabric.
Does this make you hungry for strawberries? I'm glad they are good for us.

Lovely strawberry fabrics. I have you as my featured blog at the moment on my blog, although it did mean I had to lose Nancy which was very sad as she is also a big fave of mine. I know you say other people's applique is better but I like yours the best!
I'm breaking out in hives just looking at all those strawberries. Cute fabrics. Are you going to use them all in one place? My BFF also collects straw-fabrics and now doesn't now how to use them. Just thought maybe you had an idea.
What a wonderful strawberry fabric collection. Do you ever just hate to cut into some of your fabrics? I think I'm beginning to walk a fine line between quilter and fabric hoarder. With fabrics like this I would just sit around admiring it all day. The jam looks yummy!
Just last night my husband and I went out for pie. I chose Strawberry Hawaiian. Unusual but so good...strawberries, pineapple and pecans in a cream pie. Yum. Looking at your pretty fabrics make me want another slice! You have an amazing selection of strawberry fabrics. So fun!
I'll bet it's hard to part with even pieces of these fabrics! The patchwork ones are wonderful. Collections at my house seem to be dots, stripes, and small graphic prints, lots of green. And no pink!
Those strawberry fabrics are so happy!! And adorable! I don't recall EVER seeing strawberry fabric but now I'll be on the hunt for it. I have a lot of cherry fabric though! Happy weekend to you - and your jam looks yummy! xo, Nan
Um, yes, I am now hungry for strawberries. And I bypassed them at the market this morning. I get all excited when the strawberries burst back into the store in the spring. Mmmmmm... What a fab array of strawberry fabrics you have too. WOW! A delightful collection!
I always think of you when I see strawberry, cherry or bee fabrics.
There is nothing better than homemade strawberry freezer jam.
Beautiful fabrics, does give one an appetite!
Have a fantastic weekend.
TTFN ~ Hugs, Marydon
Love all of these happy prints - and your red plate! Every time I see a strawberry print fabric I think of you!
OMG, the strawberries and little deer fabric is to die for, sooooo cute! Strawberry jam, my hubby would be so jealous I'm not telling! Have a wonderful weekend Nanette.
I love your Fabric Fridays and yes I am very hungry now for strawberries.

Ah, I wasn't sure which was your favorite...strawberries or cherries but now I know! You definitely have a lot of strawberry prints! My favorite one is that red on red print, just says "vintage" to me. :-)
Strawberry fabrics are so cheerful! I love them all!

Just a few stawberry fabrics :) impressive collection. Your jam really looks tastey. I don't think Michigan stawberries are ripe yet.
I don't have any strawberry fabric I am just now collecting teapots. I will look for this next time.

Fresh jam and beautiful fabrics - two winners!
Oh yes, I'm hungry now! Yummy strawberry jam on toast and yummy strawberry fabrics. Love it.
Wonderful, bright and happy! You must have one heckuva stash lady ;-)
Yum! and what adorable berry fabrics you have!
I love those tiny strawberries! I am heading to farmer's market tomorrow and will be getting some to eat!
I used to pick straberries as a job when I was very young and at school. Pick one eat one, lol. I still love them and I love your fabrics too.
Love those fabrics! And the jam looks good too. Making me hungry!
Love the strawberry fabrics. The red dotted one is my favorite next is the one with the little deer on the print. Very cute. The jam looked delish by the way. Makes me wanna go make some toast.
Divine strawberries (and cherries) here Nanette my mouth is watering. I love home made strawberry jam too, how lovely xo
What a wonderful strawberry fabric collection...I love strawberry jam and cream on toast or scones...yum!!
Very pretty strawberry fabrics! I have some kind of critter that is eating my strawberries outside...that know just when they are ripest! Hmmmm...
I love your strawberry fabrics. After seeing yours, I think I might have some, too!
Yes, I love strawberries, and I, too, am so glad they are good for us.
oh these are lovely. In the back of my mind... I will be making a strawberry quilt for my little girl in a couple years, when I can bear to cut up some of her baby clothes (that have strawberries on them). We called her Strawberry before she was born--at one point one of the pregnancy websites said "the baby is about the size of a strawberry" and my son who was 4 really latched on to that idea. :)
Thanks so much for showing these!
p.s. did I tell you I love your new blog header? well, I do!
These strawberry fabrics are just fabulous. But I have to say I think my favorite of all of them is the second fabric photo. They are just too adorable. Who knew there was so many fabrics with strawberries?
Yummy strawberries!!
i want to see your cherry fabrics! (cherries are my personal favorites--to eat and to collect fabric)
What a wonderful strawberry fabric collection.
