Fabric Giveaway!

***The Giveaway Is Closed, Thank You for Participating!***


Inviting all readers to my first giveaway!

As mentioned in my previous post, I have too many fabric in stash, would love to share some with all you wonderful people :)

You'll receive 5 different cotton fabric, each one a full meter. Meaning you'll get 5 full meters of fabulous cottony goodness! (1 meter is almost 10% more than 1 yard).

In this stash - 2 designer quilting cotton from Tanya Whelan's Darla and Barefoot Roses Collection. The other 3 fabrics are lightweight, soft 100% cotton.

And yes, this giveaway is open to the whole wide world! :)

To win, please leave a comment, I'd love to know what you want to make with these fabrics. Please make sure to leave your email address too.

Be a follower and/or blog about this giveaway for an extra entry each.

I'll pick the winner randomly on the 31st of December 2009. What a great way to close my 2009 posts! There will be many more giveaways in 2010. Till then, good luck!

I love all my readers, I love all your comments! :) *HUGS*

  1. Wow - what a generous giveaway. These fabrics are all gorgeous! I'm a big fan of the Tanya Whelan fabrics but unfortunately they aren't readily available here in New Zealand and when they are they cost a fortune. I've just made a shirred sundress for my 2 year old which was a lot of fun so I would use the fabric to make some more.

    I'm already a follower as well :)

  2. Beautiful fabrics!! So many projects I'd love to make - a skirt for my niece; cloth napkins; a small quilt for my friend who just had a baby...I could go on and on, too many projects I want to make, not enough time.

    BTW - I just became a follower : )

    Love your tutorials!

  19. With the Tanya Whelan fabrics I would combine them to make a tote bag, journal cover, clutch and a Notepad Holder and I'd buy a pink pen! the other 3 fabrics. The first two I would use to make a simple squared patchwork table cloth for my kitchen nook, and the last one would be cut up and combined with solids for some kind of wonky log cabin. Love your sewing inspirations!

  37. Of course a million thing pop into my head when I see pictures of pretty fabric. Of course I"d start with a purse.I'd use the pink and the blue one to contrast each other. I adore butterflies so I'd gaze at the brown one for a while before deciding a craft worthy of it's cuteness. When I'm done the scraps would get used up as mini gift bags. I love fabrics with a history that didn't come to me straight off the bolt :)
