I think I would like an apron out of it, or maybe some curtains for my living room. OH! That would look sweet!!

I love the yellow and black bird fabric from Alexander Henry. I would use it to make a diaper bag (my daughter's name in Vietnamese is "bird song" so I'm a sucker for anything bird-related!).

Thanks for the chance to win the fabric! I love the new Amy Butler line!

Maybe I've been hiding under a rock, or something...but I really like any of the Amy Butler Belle fabrics... I have a purse pattern I've been meaning to try out, so I think some of those would look fabu on a purse!

Heather Bailey Pop Garden Ivory Peonies is my pick... I am thinking a tote bag but it's so pretty that a pillow cover might be nice too. Hard to decide.

Heather said...

Oh how nice--

I love this one: Amy Butler Daisy Chain Brown Deco Rose, but it was definitely hard to choose--so many lovelies. What to make--a little frock for my daughter or a sweet apron for my sister-in-law.

Hey fellow PDXer! Love the Joel Dewberry Aviary Chocolate Sunburst print. I would use it as the backing fabric so I could finally finish my baby's quilt (she's two now-- procrastinate much?!)

Thanks so much for sponsoring this giveaway-- what fun!

FABULOUS fabric selection! I have been eyeing the new Daisy Chain line from Amy Butler since it was announced.
The Amy Butler Mustard French Wallpaper is my favorite in SewGoodFabric's shop. http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=16472849
I have not seen the French Wallpaper in that colorway before, but I would definitely combine it with some gray wool suiting to make a gorgeous large purse with matching wallet/clutch. That fabric would also make for great panels in an a-line skirt mixed with lines of chocolate and turquoise.

Paula -- CutieFruity said...

my SIl could use the Washies- Little Cloths for Little Bodies- Cowboy Up. She's got a couple little cowboys at her house.

Paula -- CutieFruity said...

What would I make with the Amy Butler Belle Kashmir Oxford Stripe Gothic Rose 3 Yard Set? matching CutieFruities for my 2 girls and boy! They would all coordinate, but not be too matchy. Then everyone at church would tell me how clever I am and how cute my kids are. (as usual)

So many to choose from! I think I'm most in love with the Amy Butler Belle Royal Garden Lotus Full Moon Polka Dot set, I love to make a baby quilt or crib bedding with this.

Annie1 said...

Gosh I love fabric! Its getting harder and harder to find a fabric store in my city and that's so sad!

The fabric I would pick is the Alexander Henry Bangle Dot Fabric because I think it would make a super funky sundress for my granddaughter and neice!

Thanks

Thanks

Ashley said...

That is a great shop, and one that I've definitely checked out in the past! I love all her fabrics - I don't think I can choose just one! I always love the Amy Butler fabrics and really am quite partial to the Full Moon Polka Dots. I've used it many time for quilts and bags. I just recently got some of the Daisy Chain in the pink colors and am currently making a quilt out of it. I'd love to win some in the other colors!

Too many lovely patterns to choose from! I adore Amy Butler, so if I won this (it would be my first yardage of hers!!) I'd use it to make a baby carrier. It would be great to show this off while carrying my son.

On of my favorite non-Amy fabrics is the Alexander Henry Blue Floral Veronique Fabric.

I have never worked with designer fabric before (despite drooling over it a lot online).... I love all of Henry Miller's fabric but my fave in SewGoodFabric's shop is the Amy Butler Lotus Morning Glory. I've got a friend with baby #2 due in a few months and I want to make her a baby blanket that isn't pastel!
