Fabric Give Away

I'm cleaning the studio - yet again.

So - today may be your lucky day!  I'm doing a fabric give away from all the left over monthly fabric club packages I have left from last year when I sold fabric on my website.

This assortment of fabric varies in sizes from 5" x 11" up to 5" x 22".  There are also several Fat Sixteenth packs of fabric in this box - a fat sixteenth measures 9" x 11".  There are repeats - but who cares!  It's freebie fabric and all of this is good usable stuff (great for scrappy quilts) - I just need more room and do not care to list fabric on ebay right now - besides give aways and reading your comments is way more fun than ebay!!  

Here's a picture of the goods:


The box of fabric weighs 11 pounds 6 ounces - so there is quite a bit of fabric here.  All fabric is reproduction fabrics from the past year or two.  This give away is open to all US residents - I apologize to everyone overseas  - if it wasn't so expensive to ship to you, I'd be more than happy to!

This give away is open until sometime Thursday morning - June 7th.  So comment away if you would like a chance to win this box of fabric! I'll ship the fabric to the winner at no charge

Also - I unpacked a box of fabric fat quarter bundles that I have leftover from my quilt show days.

Here is a link to my ebay auctions that end today that show each of the bundles I have left.  Below that is a link to my website, where I've also listed the bundles.

Enjoy!

Sister Stoll said...

Alot of the fabric in my stash came from your site. This fabric could be among some old friends if I won it. A great project would be to incorporate it into something from your book, Simply Charming: Small Quilts from Yesteryear. Then I would have a quilt of your design made from fabric that I won from you. Priceless!!!
