Free Fabric for Someone...
I have been buying fabric lately that really needs to be in my stash. I have always loved anything ''funky'', or ''ugly'', or just plain ''Seriously?''. I have liked them for a long while. In fact, I think that it is funny that the fabrics that I am attracted to are called ''Modern'' because they are really either a reproduction of 1940's prints, 50's prints, or most recently, inspired by 60's and 70's prints. It is like I waited 30 years for my favorite prints to become cotton instead of double knit. And now that this kind of fabric is more readily available, I can even score some at lower prices. Last week, I bought some fabric that was discounted. The catch was that you had to buy a yard minimum. I only wanted a half yard cut of these prints, but when I found them available at 1/2 yard, they were more expensive than the full yard. So, I bought the full yards, cut a set of fat quarters for a friend, and decided that I will give a set of fat quarters away to one of you fine people in blogland. I know it is not much, but it is free; and if this goes well, I will do FUNNER things again and more often. You will get the 5 fat quarters shown above with an extra bonus fat quarter. I will choose a winner from the comments of this post on September 1st. The only things that I ask of you is that you leave a comment, and tell your friends on your blog about it. (and Thank You!)

Oh boy... free fabric... just what I need.... no really. I want in on this one M! Oh and I'll post about the give-away right away.
I read about you on Rhonda's blog and hurried right over!!! Always in for fabric and looking at new things. The baptismal gown is beautiful. I don't live far from you - we live in Brady, Texas. Looking forward to seeing your things! And of course I'll run right over and leave a post about you!!

Thank you, yes, I would like these fabrics! They are really lovely.
They are great fabrics -- very modern! I would put them to good use, if I were to win them. Since most everyone in my family has a quilt, I've been doing charity quilts. Pay it forward.

I love those fabrics! Could do up some really fun quilt with those! I grew up in the 60/70s. I hated double knits. My Mom wore those all the time. DK's can stop bullets!
I enjoy your blog. We seem to have the same taste in fabric. I would love to have the fabric! Will spread the new.
