Winner of Fabric Samples is........................



Donna from North Texas!  If you would email me your mailing address, I will send them on their way!  Remember I said this was the last box of fabric samples?  Well, I found that it is not!  When I emptied the box in the attic to fill the flat rate box, I found an identical box underneath filled to the brim with More Samples!  I really hate to throw them out if someone out there would enjoy having them for little quilts............would make a great charm quilt!  So, I will draw another name in a week or so!  Don't know what I've been doing with my time lately...........sure don't have any "finishes" to show for it!  Been working on the little exhibition quilt and really need to stay focused on it as I am Not where I would like be in terms of the number of blocks finished!!  

 Went looking around my Photos to see if there was anything to post here and found this Donation Quilt made with "Virginia" flamestich fabric, thinking it might pass for a "modern quilt"?  Closest I will probably ever come!  The pattern is an enlarged "Cut Glass Dish" in 4 inch units making it 24" square.

Leave a comment if you would like to receive a box of fabric samples!!

    I have been known to go through the garbage at retreats and classes! I love scraps, and only throw away the tiniest of pieces. Would love to have a new box!

    Hi Cyndi,

    I've already won one of your WONDERFUL scrap boxes! ; so pass over me, should my name be drawn, and give to another lucky quilter. ;) share the love.

    I think that would pass for a modern quilt, but I see the lovely 18th century looking fabric! Wow! Gorgeous. I'm with you, about as close as I'll get to modern. However, isn't it interesting how some of the antique reproductions can work?!?

    Love your "modern" quilt, and would love the samples! Repro never goes out of style, in my opinion.

    I really like that flame stitch square. It could be modern or not..... I have just finished sorting all my fabric into separate bins and I could still use more. I hope I win! :-)

    Yes, please, I would love to win a box of fabric samples.

    It's interesting to see how old becomes new again with regards to some fabrics (and fashions sometimes, too). I've been thinking about doing a block with half-square triangles in the 3 1/2 to 4 inch range. I can't really tell perspective from your photo but it helps me to imagine how they might look.

    Thanks for sharing your blessings of fabric!

    I think the flamestitch block could pass for modern. I've been in the hospital a lot recently and to tell you the truth it reminds me of the lines my heart monitor made while hooked up.

    I would be very happy to win a box of your scraps as I'm always trying to find pieces of fabrics I don't have to add interest to my quilts. Rina

    I'd love them, Cyndi and if I'm fortunate enough to win them, I'll stop in to pick them up when we come to Maine in April. That'll save the cost and hassle of sending them to Canada and will give me an excuse...not that I ever need one...to come and shop!

    Would love to win a box of your fabric samples. They are very useful for making mini quilts as these type of quilts can use many different pieces of fabric. Your donation quilt with the flame stitch fabric is lovely, and I think could easily pass as modern.
