Sew Scraps Along with Pleasant Home and Me

307 comments
Have you been visiting any of the Scrap Along participation blogs? The Scrap Along is sponsored by Jodi of Pleasant Home. Nedra, Sherri and Lori have already posted about Scrap Along give-a-ways this week on their blogs (go visit, I think there is still time to enter). And so today is my day to post a Scrap Along Give-A-Way here at Freda's Hive.
I dug deep into my scrap bin and pulled out a big arm load of scraps of all sizes. Some scraps are strips, some are squares but all are pretty sweet. There are even a few vintage and some Japanese reproduction fabrics. I sorted, ironed and stacked....
adding piece after piece to each little pile....
until I had filled my ironing board with cute scraps to go to a loving home. Could that be your home? Maybe. Leave a comment and make SURE that your email is attached to your comment because only those comments with emails attached can win. To sweeten the give-a-way I'm including this fun Japanese patchwork magazine. It is a great issue and is full of quilting and stitching ideas with plenty of inspiration for smaller pieces of fabric like scraps.

The give-a-way ends Saturday 10/23/10. So leave a comment before midnight Saturday Mountain Time. I'll pick a winner and post it Monday morning (so no new posts here until Monday). Good luck to all you fabulous quilters and fabric lovers.

My first attempt with blogger didn't work. But, I would love to win these scraps so can scrap along with pleasant home. I've been through my Mom's scraps and there isn't much that is cotton quilters fabric. So, need to win some. Thanks for the giveaway. The magazine looks interesting too.

Stephanie Zito said...

Fabulous collection of scraps! I LOVE the japanese prints and would love to check out that magazine!

Kathleen C said...

I think scraps from another quilter is a wonderful gift-a bit of your creativity will come with the fabrics that you chose to work with. And such a generous number of scraps when many quilters are cutting back on their fabric spending is especially nice.

Thanks for offering the great scraps and magazine. I've always wanted to do something from a Japanese pattern book. The patterns have such class. I love your bag pattern as well. I'd like to give it a try.

Love your scraps. Thanks for the chance!

Momoo said...

WOW, this must be a record for posts on your blog. You have such neat scraps in your stash. I think it's neat how you can look at a Japanese magazine and not need to be able to read it. I once found a Japanese pattern for a dashound, it turned out great without any words I could read. I also purchased a Japanese book on Sunbonnet Sue, really don't have to be able to read it.
Good luck with your give-away :)
