FWFS Friday Bundle Batch: My Vintage Kitchen!

2012-05-18T08:59:00.000-05:00

...Friday Bundle Batch...

THE INSPIRATION:

A red & black color combo was the initial inspiration for this bundle! Once I saw Michael Miller's Any Cup Will Do, I decided to take this bundle in a slightly vintage direction. You'll see vintage dishes, checkerboard, and red "speckled enamelware". (I'm not sure if red enamelware was ever made, but it fit with the theme, so I decided to use it!). There's a little daisy play going on here, too....black & white daisies and the black PETALS print by Michael Miller!

My Favorite Michael Miller Ta Dot Quilts!

2012-04-19T22:03:00.000-05:00

......sharing......

I love dots....especially Michael Miller's Ta Dot Collection!

One of our customers, Vicki, shared a link with with me to some fabulous Ta Dot quilts on Geta's Quilting Studio. I have to say, they are my favorites of any dot quilts I've seen....and I LOVE anything with dots, so it's hard to snag that "favorite" spot! With Geta's permission, I'm sharing her lovely quilts, because I think our dot lovers will adore them as well!

First up:

Dresden Flowers Quilt:

AMAZING, right?

Please see Geta's Quilting Studio Blog HERE to find a FREE TUTORIAL for this quilt!

...............

and there's more.....as if one stunning quilt wasn't enough, there is this one:

You can PURCHASE this FLOWER POWER downloadable pattern from Geta!

CLICK HERE!

Thank you, Geta, for letting my share your talent ~ you are an amazing quilter!

To satisfy your Ta Dot craving,

check out our Ta Dot FQ Bundle!

and if you need the Dresden Plate ruler for the lovely flower quilt that Geta designed, you can get one of those right HERE.

Thanks for stopping by ~ I hope you enjoyed viewing these fabulous quilts!

Customer Highlight ~ Diane K. / Peanuts Fabric!

2012-03-27T11:52:00.000-05:00

.........HAD TO SHARE..........

Diane K. made this gorgeous dress for her granddaughter's 2 year-old birthday party in February! Her little sweetie loves all the Peanuts characters, so Grandma made her the *perfect* dress out of navy microcheck, with eight Peanuts characters embroidered around the skirt:

And here is a closeup:

I think this dress is as sweet as can be!

Thanks for sharing, Diane!

Diane is also working on a special quilt with the Peanuts characters! It's great timing, since Quilting Treasures recently introduced their Peanuts HAPPINESS IS line!

Also, expected in April:

(I'm sooo excited, this one really brings back memories!)

November "Get Ready for the Holidays" Candle Giveaway!

2011-11-15T16:49:00.003-06:00

If you follow FWFS on Facebook, you might have noted that I just made what seemed a grand amount of candles with a friend last night! So I got to thinking, how fun would it be to have some of these delicious soy wax candles for the next FWFS Blog giveaway! Something a little different from all of our normal "fabric-y" prizes!

{PS: you can follow us on facebook here: }
FWFS Facebook

Sooooo.....here we go! We are giving away 3 candles....so that means 3 winners! Up for grabs are Happy Holidays (a cinnamon scent), Fudge Brownie, and Christmas Tree ~ all perfect for the holiday season!

These are 100% natural wax (soy with a few botanicals), so that means soap & water clean-up if you'd like to use the jar afterwards! Zinc-free wicks. Although we have quite a bit of experience with creating these candles, we are not in the candle-making business, so you won't find these for sale.

Now on to the *important* stuff.....how to enter!

1) For one entry, leave a comment here telling me which candle would be your favorite.

2) For an extra entry, sign up for the FWFS newsletter, right HERE!

3) For a 3rd chance: facebook, twitter, or blog about this giveaway and then leave a comment that you did so {so all your friends can join the fun!}

4) For a 4th chance, check out our COMING SOON section & tell me which is your favorite "coming soon" fabric or collection!

This giveaway closes Friday, November 18 at midnight CST.

Good luck!!
