A La Mode MAY DAY GIVE.A.WAY Rules....




I am more than excited to be participating in the May Day GIVE.A.WAY!!! I'm going to keep it real with all of you guys... it was a hard choice to pick which fabrics to go with!

I have included 4 fat quarters of each of these darling prints { Lush - moss deer, Lush - paint by number moss camo, Flea Market Fancy green dots, & Joel Dewberry - lime wood grain }.

Okay… so if your interested… Here’s whatcha do… please leave a comment on this post with your contact information and the name of your favorite quilt pattern that you would use these fabrics in { gives me ideas for my next projects wink, wink }! That’s it! Easy Hugh???

♥ Entries/ comments will be open until 9:00 pm (Pacific) on Sunday, May 31

The Fabric - Stash - Swappy - Poo...

I just started a new flickr group that might interest you??? If so stop by and check it out! Here's a couple of my entries...

Denyse Schmidt's Flea Market Fancy



Erin Michael's Lush Deer

This group is dedicated to pictures of fabric that you are dieing to get your hands on and fabrics that you are willing to swap to have them!

I’m hoping to provide a site where fabric junkies {like myself & friends} can come and post pictures of fabrics that are rare or out of print ( OOP ) that they would be willing to part with, in exchange of someone else's rare goodies ;)

Maybe your looking for Denyse Schmidt’s Flea Market Fancy or Heather Ross' Munki Munki or Lightning Bugs fabrics and your willing to swap your Amy Butler Ginger Bliss stash to get them??? Then this is the group for you! Please put information regarding the exact sizes of your fabrics in the description of the photograph.

Also, please recognize that even though a fabric stash may be rare or OOP, doesn't exactly mean the other member may want to swap their stash for yours... this is a mutual swap { meaning both members must want the other member's fabric}.

Feel free to convo admin if you have any questions...and enjoy searching for great fabric finds!!!

Peas and Carrots...

Well it was bound to happen... I have bought so much super good fabric lately, I had to let some go. I decided that I would use my favorite Moda line { Peas and Carrots } charm packs that I've been saving into this yummy rag quilt... I'm a huge fan of rag quilts... the visual and texture components are amazing... Plus you get the classic patchwork design ;) This is currently in my Etsy shop!

Kitschy, Kitschy Quilt...

Just in the nick of time, I finished my Mother-in-laws' quilt for Mother's day! I really loved the way it turned out... with the rick rack detailing and additional stripes on the back :) When oh when... will I have the time for myself???

Calling number 35

Well... I'm not going to lie! During this past week of destash give-a-ways and purchases... I have actually grown my stash! Yep... you heard it right!!! I got so excited by the amount of fabric leaving my home... I thought, "Hey... I can get a little more... a little more won't hurt anyone, right???" Five shipping packages later, a trip to one quilt store hidden off the beaten path, and I'm in a worse packing condition then before... But, on a lighter note... I'm super happy and that counts for something, right??? { wink, wink }
GIVEAWAY WINNER!!!
