perennial beauty ~ a pretty giveaway

You know Fort Worth Fabric Studio, right?  It's a great online shop. Tons of gorgeous fabrics and a whole bunch more.  If you've never been, you should go check it out.  :)  Jodie, the owner (and a super sweet lady), has very kindly offered to give this "Perennial Beauty" bundle to one of you.  Isn't it just delicious?

But wait, there's more ...

Because Jodie knows how much I love using cotton tape labels, she's tied this bundle up with TWO YARDS of this pretty "Paris" one (it's a favourite of mine!).  By the way, her price for this tape is amazing - 0.69/yd!  Imagine using it on all the gifts for your family under the Christmas tree this year .... and then squirrling it all back for your sewing room.  I'd totally do that. ;)

For a chance to win this pretty bundle of 11 FQs and 2 yds of labels, leave me a comment telling what you'd make with it.  This giveaway closes Friday, October 24 and is open to everyone ... no exclusions. :)

Hope you're having an awesome weekend.  The sun is shining in my corner of the world, there are still a few defiant leaves hanging onto branches for dear life, and I think there's a trip to the corner patisserie for me in the very near future.  As in like RIGHT NOW!  I'm in dire need of a Pain au Chocolat and a nice hot cup of Irish Breakfast tea.  Two cream, one sugar please.

I just saw a lovely photo of a pink and brown double wedding ring quilt. These pinks would come in handy. Thanks for the opportunity to win.

Oooo, what beautiful fabrics. I want them! They would make a perfect quilt for my young niece. Thanks for a great giveaway. (And, yes, I love Fort Worth Fabric Studio and their great tutorials!)

I would like to make a bag for my granddaughter who is a girly girl and loves pink. So I would make a bag to carry around her "special things" in.

I have long loved the pink and yellow color palette! I LOVE this! And that Paris ribbon- delightful! A beautiful reminder of vacations spent there! Together I would make a quilt and bag to carry it in!

This collection would make perfect sewing supply totes for my quilting buddies this Christmas!

A quilt pieced from squares of these fabrics would look wonderful on the back of our couch!
And I love your idea of using the twill tape as bows on packages. :)

That looks like a baby quilt for a new baby girl!
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterEllen
Wow! I love these fabrics and i'd make a tote-bag if i won 'em. Such happy colours. And more than enough to make a matching purse as well. Keep my fingers crossed i will......
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterHetty
Well, since pink is my favorite color, I would use these for a quilt for me. I have been collecting pink FQs just for a project for me.

They love ok lovely. I would make a few lavender sachets to hang in closet with the tape. A few small pouches with the tape as accent decoration. Great ideas reading comments above.

We'll be welcoming a new granddaughter in February - this looks perfect for a quilt for her!

Its beautiful. I would make a lap quilt to share with my Doxie, Zooey. She loves to get snuggly in a blanket while we watch tv.

I am in the process of making baby quilts etc for my great-grand-babies who are not born yet (and won't be for several years). I want them to have a little something from me if I'm no longer around. This fabric would be so sweet for a quilt...By the way, I am so very inspired by the sweet fabrics you use! Thanks for continuing to inspire so very many of us. God bless you.

I want to start a hexagon quilt and would use it for that!

Gorgeous fabric! I would start another quilt, of course! Thanks for the great giveaway.

I love this fabric! I would use most in a quilt but would save some for a pretty little bag using your recent bag pattern. Perfect!
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterVicki
All that pink deliciousness! I'll be honest; I have no idea what I would make. Something to brighten the sewing room or the kitchen. Or maybe to delight a happy pink lover in my life.
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterRebecca S.
It would make a pretty quilt!!!
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterJulie
Love the fabric and would love to make a quilt for one of my grand daughters using this in it. The label tape is so cute....just the perfect touch to add to things I make with cotton, which is everything!! Love your blog.

What an awesome collection of fabrics - I love pink and yellow together - gorgeous. I love roses too - all the fabrics are so beautiful and together they are fantastic. I would definitely make a quilt for the children's room in our house where our 2 granddaughters and 3 grandsons sleep and play when they visit.

I would trim a set of kitchen towels and pot holders for my daughter who loves pink and is just finishing building her home!
It's pink !!! I'd make a quilt for myself and one for my great niece who is 4 :) and the only girl among the greats which include 9 great nephews !!

I've been seeing some patchwork bags recently that I've really admired. I'd like to try to make one and these fabrics are gorgeous. Thanks for the opportunity!
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterRickie
A quilt for a little girl.
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterDebrafromMD
I would make beautiful hanging makeup bags for my daughter, daughters-in-law and granddaughters.
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterJayne Griffith
I have ordered fabric from Fort Worth. The fabric was lovely and the service great!
I think this time, I would make something just for me! Perhaps some pillows or a lap quilt.
The bundle is so pretty and feminine.
I have never used the tape labels before. They look like so much fun!
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterDebbie Bauer
Oh what a soft and pretty bundle. They would look so great as hexies for a pillow. Thank you for the chance.
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterJane
I LOVE Fort Worth Fabric Studio! Her bundles are always so pretty and I receive her newsletter each week. These fabrics would make beautiful pillowcases for my guest bedroom.
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterLinda
This set of fabric is delicious. I want to make a set of table linens. Placemats, tea cozy, napkin rings, a runner. I can see it done up with some yo-yos and buttons for embellishment. Great fabric! Thanks for the chance to enter.

I would love to make a patchwork
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterMichle Machala
What a gentle cloth! Whether it is my own, I would sew a blanket for a girl!
Beautiful drawing! Thank you!
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered Commenterelka
Ooooh! Pareee! Someday, I will get there! In the meantime, I will dream of it and working with that lovely bundle of Perennial fabrics! My first thought is how lovely it would look in a little girl's baby quilt. Or, a doll's quilt with a matching tote bag for the little girl. I'd love to win!
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterKathy E.
Such pretty fabric. I would make a quilt with it.
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterLea
This fabric is so scrumptious it would be one of those 'oh, shall I cut it' moments, but I would love to make a quilt for my granddaughter - she would adore this stash as much as I do!!
Thanks for the opportunity to win it :)
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterBarb
Love the fabric and the labels. I'm making several boxy zippered pouches for gifts, and the fabric would be beautiful. Thanks for your wonderful blog!
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterJudy
My newest favorite color combo is yellow and red. Since pink is red's "next door neighbor", I may have to switch over! The bundle is so beautiful! Most likely a little quilt would result!
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered Commentercheryl
I would make a quilt for a little girl and give it to Project Linus.
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterCecilia
I think I would like to keep this gorgeus fabric for a while and just look at it, and then later make a table runner. Beautiful pink, pink.
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterEdda Soffia
I think a table topper for spring. And practice using the tape for labels...your's are so pretty!
October 18, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterBeth Sanders
I would so enjoy making a new coverlet (quilt) for my granddaughter, Chloe's room. She has worn out her Hello Kitty quilt and needs an update.
Love the bundle of fabrics so much.
Thanks,

How cheerful and pretty that bundle is! We have a new niece and I'm pretty sure this would be made into a patchwork quilt for her, something simple and sweet.

I would use it to encourage my granddaughter to learn to sew. We could make many projects. Love Ft Worth Fabric Studio.

I love the bright cheery pints! I would love to make a lap quilt incorporating the labels. I would like to make this for my mother in law who is 77 years old and mostly home bound. I think it would really lift her spirits while keeping her warm!

It would make a beautiful purse for spring.
