UPDATE: Fabric winner…Congratulations to Amanda Kattner! I will email you for your address and ship these Ty Pennington fabrics to you!
It’s an exciting time of year here at Quilts Inc. headquarters, as the last of the quilts on loan for Fall Festival are being shipped back to their makers, many of us are busy stitching holiday gifts for loved ones, and we are pleased knowing that Friends For Life is putting the money raised for Festival’s Pet Project (more than $20,000) to good use saving animals!

Monday’s Fabric Giveaway
I have an assortment of fabrics designed by Ty Pennington to give away. (Sorry, Ty doesn’t come with the fabric.)
Answer the following question and I will randomly select a winner tomorrow (Tuesday).
Question: What quilt-y gadgets are on your holiday wish list?
Mostly fabric and books, not really any tech-y things. Although if someone slips in one of Julie Herman’s Hex rulers, I won’t complain. 🙂
a wonderful thimble…..
So far, I am content with the gadgets I have. But, I could use a couple of really good thread cases for my embroidery thread!
Well, Santa came early and left me a vintage Singer 15-91 which was in perfect shape (used about six times and I totally believe it after trying to find something to clean on it.) That was my biggest wish, but I also want the bigger pack of Wonder Clips (10 is no longer enough) and a year’s supply of rotary cutter blades 🙂 I would also love to have a 60-degree ruler. Thanks for the chance to win the Ty fabric.
I’m wanting one of those portable frames to quilt by hand. However, I will say that at the top of my list is gift money for more FABRIC and batting!! 🙂
Rotating cutting board, the kind you can spin 360 degrees ~ Thanks for the great giveaway! Ty’s fabrics are lots of fun and have wonderful hues!
My holiday wish for a new tool was for a sit down quilting machine…and it arrived a bit early! I now have a Babylock Tiera and I have already quilted two wall hangings! Happiness is not having to wrestle a big project under a small machine! If someone has some spare time to give me……
"To the well organized mind, death is but the next great adventure."Dumbledore and Gandalf would've gotten along splendidly, I think. Though Dumbledore might have taken up pipe-smoking as a result.
My very first item on the wish list (there are many quilty things on it) is an extension table for my take-along Bernina B330. What a wonderful giveaway….and am enjoying this chance to win. Happy holidays to you.
Anything to do with sewing!!!
I need a new cutting mat mine has been used so much it has major cut lines all the way through it. I also would love a new Embroidery software, since my dongle broke and they dont make it anymore. I would Love a fabric Die cutting machine to do appliques !!
A new cutting mat…supersized.
My Holiday quilty wish list has one thing on it: Time to work on my 50+ UFOs!!
Actualy, I recently sold our computer business, so I will have time. So really–my wish list includes: a Gingher rotary cutter with a lifetime supply of blades, A new large cutting mat and a supply of really fun fabric–like the Ty Pennington fabric. Thanks, Pokey, for the chance to win it.
More dies for my new acquired Accuquilt! Thanks for the giveaway. Happy Holidays!
I am hoping an elf will have a hexagon ruler for me!
The latest quilt thing I want is modern fabrics for a quilt for my son. Thanks for the Ponderings
A rotating cutting mat and a big quilter’s ironing board!
I hope Santa brings me electric rotary blade
Sharpener!
I’d love a replacement rotary cutter blade and a quilt book. Anything else, I just don’t have the room for!
Happy holidays, everybody.
On my wish list is a new portable Ott light and then, oh how I would love, an Accuquilt machine with a couple of dies.
Extension table
Thread,blades and a ditch foot.
A new sewing machine!
Does an iPad count? becuz thats what I really really want ! 🙂
I could really use a cordless iron.
Well more fabric of course !!
I want my husband to assemble my second adjustable-height work table!
I am wishing for a Wacker–it is a little yellow mallet that reduces the bulk in seams that come together when combined with steam and a wack. I would love to win the Ty fabric too.
I’m hoping that Santa will bring me a Twist and Turn quilt book to go with new rulers I purchased at Festival!
I would like a Go Fabric Cutter but I know that ain’t happening!! So instead I would love to get a good quality iron!! (ps I never heard of a Wacker that Pati posted above… neat!)
batting scissors are a great idea…….. of course, always fabric and books !!…. some accu cutter dies would be wonderful also… so many things …so little time !!
Hmm…no gadgets. Just fabric, fabric, fabric!
The quilty gadgets I most crave this year are more rotary cutting blades, more templates and cool found objects that I can work into my pieces. Of course, I crave this fabric too. Fabric is a permanent fixture on every list I make.
I love my big shot, it cuts fabric but also pelmet vilene, felt and freezer paper. no more misshapen circles for me 🙂
oooh! Well I have two fabric bundles on my amazon list I linked to with the amazon toolbar…I figure if I don’t get any of them somebody will take the hint and get me a gift card – and I have a boring replacement iron, and a stand for my q-snap frame on the list too. Thank you for the giveaway!
A SewEzi table, so I can easily sew outside in the nice weather, and take it to class as well.
On my list, I have a purple Gypsy Sit-Upon cushion. You know, one of those quilter’s whoopee cushions!!
The only gift I have asked for this year is an extension table for my Janome Memory Craft 11000. I’m keeping my fingers crossed!
I would be happy with more time sew! As far as a gadget, a vintage Singer walking foot (Penguin) would be AWESOME!!!
I was so inspired by the classes I took at the Houston Quilt Show that I need more of the basic supplies to execute all of the creative projects that I dream of creating. Santa please bring rotary cutting blades, sewing machine needles and a pressing pad. .
I buy all my own quilty gadgets, so I put something else on my santa wish list!
A setting triangle ruler and anew book on journal quilting. If I am realy good Santa might bring me a long arm machine. I wish.
A new Large Cutting Mat. 😀
Thanks for the giveaway!

Taupe fabric from Japan. Thanks for the giveaway, and great news about the money raised!
Felting and embellishment goodies, and two weeks off to play with them!

I’d love a bobbin side-winder and a gypsy cushion for my fat butt!
I really hope Santa will bring me quilting gloves so I can hold on to my projects better when I try and quilt them myself!!!
I would love to have a hand felting machine from Simplicity. They are so cool!
selfish want is a BL Sashiko machine…a hunters star ruler sounds grand though.
I’d like a Rowenta iron. Thanks for offering the fabric……looks good, didn’t know that Ty is a fabric designer.
I would love a wide board ironing station, would make life so much easier! Thanks for the chance at this beautiful fabric!
I don’t believe my first try worked so will try again, please delete if you see a duplicate! I would like a wide body ironing board, would make life so much easier! Thank you for a chance to win this beautiful fabric & bless you for your work for the animals. >^..^<
I’m desperately in need of a new cutting mat. Perhaps Santa fulfill my wish this year…I’ve been good….honest! Thanks sew much for this chance to win some lovely fabrics 🙂
I would so love to have the Quilters Groove Ruler by Lisa Calle or her Conquer and Divide DVD at http://www.stonehousequilting.com/. Thanks for the opportunity to win some of Ty’s fabric:)
