January Giveaway


Good morning! It's time for our January giveaway! I decided to do a giveaway for fabric that reminds me of spring. I start thinking about spring as soon as the holidays are over. Don't I want to enjoy the magic of the 3 coldest months of the year? Nope...I want to see new flowers and green grass. So, knowing that, as quilters, we always live ahead of the season in our quilting projects, I decided to give away a combo of Fly A Kite fabrics  by October Afternoon for Riley Blake Designs. I think it's so adorable.
I'm sorry I can't get a better photo of this fabric but is has lots of pink and yellow with aqua in the main fabric with the children and dogs and a great art deco brown. There's a stripe with strawberries and flowers and some pink gingham.

The January Giveaway is for one-half (1/2) yard each of the fabrics shown for a total of 2 and 1/2 yards of Fly A Kite fabrics. To enter, just leave a comment WITH YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS. In past giveaways, we have drawn a name with no email and it was disqualified. It is so hard to find an email contact for some people that I just don't have time to search. For an additional 5 entries, become a follower of the blog (following by email does not count) or just let me know you are a follower.

 Here's a photo of an adorable pincushion made from this fabric that is a free pattern from Riley Blake Designs. For those of you who don't know, Riley Blake Designs has a free pincushion pattern on their blog every Friday afternoon. This is NOT part of the giveaway...I just wanted to show you a cute project made with this fabric.
Good luck with the Giveaway and if you can't wait to see if you win, you can buy these fabrics in our Etsy or eBay shops! Cheery wave!  Bev
