my fabric splurge arrived!! i know my mom and grandma will gasp with horror, (sorry Denyse!) but i think it’s gonna be great fun. not sure yet if i’m gonna like it as much as Hope Valley, but i think it’ll grow on me.
right now i’m dreaming of using it in a medallion quilt. with some solids and other stuff thrown in of course.
and on another note – remember this book from my last post? well, i think some of you got the hint, but when i found that book in the sale section? there was actually two of them there and i bought them both. i got the extra one for exactly the purpose of giving one away to one of my loyal readers!
so this morning i used mr. random to pick a winner. I contacted the winner already, so once i hear back from her, i’ll be sending it her way.
i love doing giveaways this way, it’s just a lot of fun and I like rewarding the people who actually visit me regularly, read my posts, and comment. you all deserve to win, and i really do find it hard to pick just one! if it wasn’t for the crazy cost of shipping, i seriously would send you each a little bundle!
but i will keep having these giveaways now and then! ! i love being a bit tricky!

I see my mailbox is empty…so I guess I am not the lucky winner! 🙁
Thanks for the great giveaway though.
Wonderful pile of fabric you have there! Will be watching what you do with it.

congrats to the winner! how fun! I went and bought this book right after reading your post, thanks for the inspiration. Love the idea of a medallion quilt, I think Chicopee will be great for it.

Chicopee would be seriously amazing as a medallion quilt!! I have the full line of Hope Valley and I have been having a hard time choosing what to do. I was thinking coins, but seeing that medallion is super inspiring!
