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 would love to make a nine-patch quilt with this, or maybe a sweet purse, or some sweet zipper bags... Gee, I might just set it on my sewing table and stare at it all day..... it's TOO PRETTY to cut up.

Hmmm, I'd go with mini-quilt I think! Maybe out of hexies! Such petty fabric :)

Thank you so much for another amazing giveaway!

I would use this for a a quilt, with simple blocks (maybe 9-patch) interspersed with flowers appliquéd onto crisp white.

(I would probably pay tribute to you with the Paris tape and totally 'borrow' your idea for it - lol..!)

Hope the settling-in period is coming to an end, and you can just enjoy your new house.

My sister and I are hoping to take a trip to Paris next fall. If I won, I'd have to make matching cosmetic bags for my sister and I for our trip!

This gorgeous fat quarter bundle and lovely labels are just crying out to be patchwork notion zippered bags! Yes, for my knitting needles and accessories! How beautiful would these notion bags be with labels sewn in just the right place, zippers which gently curved around the quilted patchwork exterior and matching fabric handles? Picture perfect! Here's hoping! Thank you Krystine and Jodie for the opportunity!
