What an amazing time I have had lately - this morning I woke up thinking just how lucky I am, and what a charmed life I have. In the past couple of weeks, I have had someone add to my lovely and large stash of fabrics by gifting me with a bunch of fat quarters, I have spent some quality time with my daughter and her friend making fabric pumpkins, and I have won a DVD from Diane Doran at Ooh Pretty Colors , called Digital Collage for Quilt Design.
With the thought of just how charmed my life is, I could only think of making it better with giving something away myself. As I mentioned, I have a pretty large stash of fabric that I am very proud of - now, I know it is not as large as some, but right now my storage space for all things shiny and crafty is limited to a closet under the stairs (fingers crossed for a whole room soon!). What better, then, than to gift someone with a few fat quarters cut from some of the favourite fabrics in my stash?
Five great fabrics, two sets of five fat quarters, and two lucky winners. All you need to do to enter, is leave a comment on this post, and tell me what you would make with these fantastic fabrics. As a special bonus, let me know if you are following my blog, and I will enter your name twice. Halloween is just around the corner, and I will need a day or two to recouperate from taking my darling daughter out for a night of trick or treating. So, leave a comment by midnight November 1st, and I will draw two names on November 2nd - either check back here on the 2nd, or make sure to leave an email address so that I can contact you if you win. Good luck, and Happy Halloween!!
A picture of the fabric pumkin my daughter made this weekend, thanks to a tutorial that I found at Craft Buds . This was super fun, and the crafting bug bit my10 year old daughter, who hand crafted Bob the ghost, all on her own, without so much as a template - isn't she awesome?!?

Thanks for your generosity. Your daughter did an awesome job on Bob - her stitches look really good. Great fabrics - I would use them to try out Bloggers BOM patterns sponsored by Canton Village Quilt Works.
I would use them in the two quilts I have that are on-going - a 60 degree diamond charm quilt and a QAYG log cabin.
