Blog update: The fabric winner has been announced at the end of this post. Thanks to all for playing along and commenting!
What better way to gear up for an industrious weekend of quilting than to give away free fabric, and give it away right now?
Here is some fabric that I got at Sample Spree at this past Spring Market. Isn’t it just divine? I have an “installation” of it in my studio at home and just love to gaze at it from time to time.
I got a fat stack of half yard cuts of linen fabrics from Seven Islands. Look how cute these fabrics are. I mean…really! Polka-dots and deer with glasses?!
And sorry…I am too selfish to give any of this away.
But…I also got fabrics that have multiple designs in them: zebras and stripes and chevrons…oh my!
I am keeping one to make a wholecloth table runner, but am giving the other away. And I am giving it away right now!
All you have to do is fill in the blank below, and by 3:00 Central Time today (Friday, July 6), I will select a random winner and announce in this blog post! Just make sure to fill in the blank and leave your response in the comments area by 3:00 P.M. Central–today!
