The Fat Quarter Shop is so excited to welcome David Butler aka Parson Gray to the Jolly Jabber. David’s very first fabric collection is Curious Nature from Free Spirit Fabrics.
Q: What was the first seed that grew into the Curious Nature collection?
A: Strange elements and shapes in nature, rock music, folk art, mid-century design, motion, fashion, all things that I find exciting and soothing at the same time.
Q: If your collection had a soundtrack what would be on the list?
A: Great question! Miles Davis, Jimi Hendrix, Leonard Cohen, Woody Guthrie, Rolling Stones, Dave Brubeck, David Bowie.
Q: What is your favorite project you have made using this collection?
A: Certainly the Curious Nature Bulls-eye quilt! (Also found on Fat Quarter Shop's Free Pattern Page.)
Q: If this collection had a scent to it, what would it be?
A: Bay Rum.
Q: Can you give us a sneak-peek of your next fabric collection?
A: I can tell you it will be called "Seven Wonders" and will work alongside Curious Nature, but we haven't edited the SKUs yet and I'd feel dumb if I showed something that didn't make the final cut! It will release this summer.
Q: If you had a mascot, what animal would it be?
A: An Owl. (That's an easy one.)
Q: Who is your favorite celebrity?
A: Oh I'm a fan of Michael Cain. Especially his older movies like Get Carter.
Q: If we were making a movie about your life, who would you want to play you?
A: Ralph Fiennes could probably pull it off.

ReplyDeleteI guess #2
ReplyDeleteOMG! Love these fabrics! I have to say that #2 is the false one. From the other groups he likes, I just can't see him liking the Bee Gees. :)
ReplyDeleteSandy A
#2 Does not fit with the rest of David's theme of folk and rock.
ReplyDelete#2 sounds wrong
ReplyDeleteI'm going with #2. Thanks!
ReplyDelete#3 is a lie -- Supertramp is truly awful -- nothing cool about them, unlike this fabric collectio, which is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI love Gordie, so I am voting that Supertramp is the lie!
ReplyDeleteNumber three is false. Love the new fabric line!!
ReplyDeleteI think #2 the Bee Gees is a lie. Thank you for the chance to win this beautiful fabric. Take care and God bless, Cory
ReplyDeleteI think #3 Supertramp is the lie. This fat quarter collection is georgous.
ReplyDeleteFortunately, I have no clue who any of these three groups are. I'll guess #3.
ReplyDeleteUmm #2 because I don't think you could hate Gordan Lightfoot!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to guess that #2 is false :)
ReplyDeleteI'd say #2 - BeeGees is false. I love this fabric collection and would be thrilled beyond words to win! Thank you for the opportunity!
ReplyDeleteI think number two is false.
ReplyDelete#2 é a falsa.
ReplyDeleteNumber 2. He doesn't like Bee Gees.

I think #2 is false.
ReplyDeleteNumber 3 is false!
ReplyDelete#2 is false. Thanks for the great giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI am thinking the #2 is false. Thanks for a lovely giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to say #1 is false.
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing #2 is false. The Bee gees don't even compare with the other two choices. I really want to make that quilt pictured!
ReplyDeleteMy guess is #1 is false.
ReplyDeleteIf You Could Read My Mind you'd know I'm saying Come on, Give a Little Bit! The Bee Gees are out!
ReplyDeleteI think that #2 the BeeGees is the wrong answer.
ReplyDeleteHe is not a BeeGees guy :) Number 2 for sure!
ReplyDeleteI think #3 is the lie.
ReplyDeleteI guess #2 is false. Thanks..
ReplyDelete# 2 is false. Great fabrics.
ReplyDeleteI feel No. 2 may be the lie - only because i cannot see the Saturday Night Fever era Bee Gees being a favourite however if it was the Bee Gees of the 'New York Mining Disaster 1941' they might be!
ReplyDeleteI am going to guess #2 because I am not a fan of the BeeGees...thanks so much for the chance! Can't wait to see Seven Wonders.
ReplyDeleteGuessing number 2.
ReplyDeleteSupertramp. Anxious to see the answer. Intriguing interview.
ReplyDeleteI am going to say #2 is false
ReplyDeleteLove those fabrics.
ReplyDeleteI am going to guess 3# as false.
I'd guess #3 is false.
ReplyDeleteLovely fabrics
Fabrics are so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing 2 is the lie.

Lori Smanski
I'm going to guess the Bee Gees is false.
ReplyDeleteGonna have to say #3... :)
ReplyDeleteJust a guess that #3 is the lie?
ReplyDeleteOh yea-Ralph Flennes! :)
I will say, #2, The BeeGees.
ReplyDeleteLove your fabric line and am a huge, huge fan of Amy's.
Welcome to Quilting!
Love that quilt; my guess is #2 Bee Gees. Thanks, Rhonda (marshudson at comcast dot net)
ReplyDelete#2 Bee Gees is false
ReplyDeleteShawn M.
I'm guessing that #3 is the lie.
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing Supertramp.
ReplyDeleteSupertramp
ReplyDeletelove this collection and the Bulls-eye quilt is wonderful (thanks for the free pattern too)!
ReplyDeleteI'd have to say that the lie is #3 ~ Supertramp.
This is my favorite all time collection. I'm guessing the Bee Gees.
ReplyDeleteI think #2 is false. Thanks for the opportunity to enter your great giveaway!
ReplyDeleteWow what a different fabric collection. . .I am guessing #2 to be the false one.
ReplyDeleteI gotta say #1 is false. Folk music is very different from all the other genres of his favorite music performers. But this is a tough one for sure.
ReplyDeleteGonna have to say #2 but i don't know about this one!!
ReplyDeleteWe must be about the same age, because I like his choice of music. I'll say that number three is false.
ReplyDeleteI am guessing that #2 is false. Thanks for the fun!!
ReplyDeleteI am going with #3 as a lie.
ReplyDeleteI'm a BeeGees fan but I'm going to go with #2. His fabrics are wonderful and looking at his picture is a fine thing too! :)
ReplyDeleteGiven the soundtrack above matches the musical tastes of my husband, I'm going to guess that the BeeGees is the false answer -- no way would my husband ever say that he loved that band, and I'm guessing that David Butler is having a chuckle by throwing that choice in. :)
ReplyDeleteI can only guess and I would say #2 is false.
ReplyDeleteI think Amy and Parson are dancing to Beegees at home. So I am guessing no. 1 is false
ReplyDeleteI think #2 is false.
ReplyDeleteI hope #2 is false cause that's my guess! Love these fabrics so much.
ReplyDeleteMy guess #3 is false. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDelete#1?
ReplyDeleteIt's statement number 2.
ReplyDeletegreat giveaway - would love to win this fabric - I'm guessing #2 is the false one !
ReplyDeleteI think number 1 is false!
ReplyDeletep.s. lots of people have difficulty reading the Blogger word verification please could you turn it off?

ReplyDeleteI think #2 is false. Thanks for a chance to win!
ReplyDelete#1 is false
ReplyDeleteI think #2 is false. Thanks for the great interview, have really been looking forward to this gorgeous collection.

ReplyDeleteI'm guessing the lie is he likes Gordan Lightfoot

ReplyDeleteMusic is hard to pick - so I'm gonna say Bee Gees - but I like songs from all of those artists!!
ReplyDeleteI think #2 is incorrect.
ReplyDeleteI am going to quess #2 is false.
ReplyDeleteI think #1 is false
ReplyDeleteIs it no.2 the Bee Gees (tho' love them) they kinda don't fit in with Leonard Cohen & the others. Just love the collection especially those greys..........

ReplyDeleteLove the fabric!!
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna guess the Bee Gees, #2.
My guess? # 3 Supertramp just don't fit!
ReplyDeletetotal guessing:) #1

ReplyDeleteMy guess is #2. Interesting fabric--love Amy Butler's designs, too!
ReplyDeleteI say #2! Love this fabric!
ReplyDeleteI think #3 is false.
ReplyDeleteMy guess is #2. Modern manly fabric for the men in my life – I am IN LOVE with these fabrics
ReplyDeleteI am going with #3 as false. I am loving this fabric too!!
ReplyDeleteI love the fabric--feminine and masculine, bold and subtle, wild and quiet! Who wouldn't love it. The bee Gees seem like the obvious choice so I'm going to go with #3. Ha! Hope I win!!
ReplyDeleteI, personally, would choose #2
ReplyDeleteEven though I love pre-disco BeeGees, I'm guessing #2 is false.
ReplyDeleteLOVE these designs! L O V E !!

ReplyDeleteWell I will say #2 is false. Hope I win they are beautiful fabrics. I would love to see them in a quilt for my grandson. Pick me plea. Thank you for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking that the same person who likes the BeeGees might like Supertramp, but then I read that Woody Guthrie is on your playlist, which made me think you might like Gordon Lightfoot. So, I'm going to guess that #3 is false. Fingers crossed. Any extra points for documenting my work? ;)
ReplyDeleteI am going to say #3 is false.
ReplyDeleteI think #2 is the lie. :)
ReplyDeleteI think it is #2 - The Bee Gees ... Thanks for the chance!

ReplyDeleteNEAT FABRICS!
THANKS FOR SHARING!
msstitcher1214@yahoo.com
Great fabric line - I think the Bees Gees is the answer.
ReplyDeleteHe's into rock and roll - it's got to be #2 Bee Gees as the false one, right?? Pleeeassssse be right!!!
ReplyDelete#2 is false: He does NOT like the Bee Gees!
ReplyDeleteI guess #2 Bee Gees is false because so much is true about Gordon Lightfoot and Supertramp! This is a great fabric line.
ReplyDeleteI am hoping it is #2. I love this fabric range and the images that they evoke - nature, silence and serenity.
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing number 3 is the lie. Looks like a fabulous fabric collection.
