perennial beauty ~ a pretty giveaway

You know Fort Worth Fabric Studio, right?  It's a great online shop. Tons of gorgeous fabrics and a whole bunch more.  If you've never been, you should go check it out.  :)  Jodie, the owner (and a super sweet lady), has very kindly offered to give this "Perennial Beauty" bundle to one of you.  Isn't it just delicious?

But wait, there's more ...

Because Jodie knows how much I love using cotton tape labels, she's tied this bundle up with TWO YARDS of this pretty "Paris" one (it's a favourite of mine!).  By the way, her price for this tape is amazing - 0.69/yd!  Imagine using it on all the gifts for your family under the Christmas tree this year .... and then squirrling it all back for your sewing room.  I'd totally do that. ;)

For a chance to win this pretty bundle of 11 FQs and 2 yds of labels, leave me a comment telling what you'd make with it.  This giveaway closes Friday, October 24 and is open to everyone ... no exclusions. :)

Hope you're having an awesome weekend.  The sun is shining in my corner of the world, there are still a few defiant leaves hanging onto branches for dear life, and I think there's a trip to the corner patisserie for me in the very near future.  As in like RIGHT NOW!  I'm in dire need of a Pain au Chocolat and a nice hot cup of Irish Breakfast tea.  Two cream, one sugar please.

Beautiful fabric. I think I'd start with trying to make your round pencil case. Thanks so much for a chance to win.

I have nephews that are expanding their families so, I'm sure there will be a need for a baby girl quilt soon.

I follow your blog every morning, it is so inspirational to view your immense creativity and meticulous design offerings and pristine execution of all your sewing and needlework projects. I have never replied to any giveaway on any site. As a surgery date is imminent for me, I have been preparing small wooden trays of hand sewing projects to speed up the recuperation. It would be an honor to win these lovely fabrics and
I envision several lovely applications. I look forward to viewing and reading your outstanding blog in the future. You have many gifted talents which shine through each day. My best to you and your family, from a quiet admirer on the Connecticut shoreline.

I'm seeing a precious little baby girl quilt in these fabrics! :)
October 20, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterA Little Blue Dragonfly
I would use it for a bunch of different things - doll clothes for my daughter, maybe a doll quilt, flowers for the grandmother's garden quilt I've been working on, and definitely the scraps would go into the scrappy quilt I also have in the works...
October 20, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterAmy
It is gorgeous! It screams Spring to me so I'm thinking something like Dresden flowers. Lovely!

Oh my goodness! This bundle is so so beautiful! I'd try my hand at a Hexie pillowtop I think! Or a quilt for my little girl. So pretty!!

The pinks would be perfect for a quilt for my granddaughter.

I'd make a lovely baby quilt and matching pillow case for one of our grand kids. The labels would be hoarded in my stash since they're too pretty to use!
October 20, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterBunny
I would make a hexi cover for my I-pad, a cute project bag for my knitting, a sweet little needle case and anything else I could experiment with. It's such lovely colours, fingers crossed x.

That is beautiful fabric! Thanks so much.
October 20, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterJan
A Pain au Chocolat sounds yummy right now. I have a new grandniece, so I would make her a quilt.
October 20, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterLisa E
Ooo, I'd make a pretty new tote bag in a different style from any other I have made. And, of course, it would have at least one Paris label.
October 20, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterKaren Seitz
SO cute and pretty! I would make up a simple 9 patch quilt with alternating blocks of small hexie flowers with yo yo centers just to summer it up a bit. Summer is over here so it's time for a look forward to next year--like on rainy mornings driving to school and working on the hexies at a couple of stop lights. Thanks for the chance to enter!
October 20, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterDelcia Rosenow
My little granddaughter would love a quilt made from these beautiful fabrics
October 20, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterJoan H.
What beautiful fabric! I have to be honest, I have no idea what i would do with it, other than staring at it and loving it! I'm sure I would figure out something after I have the strength to actually cut into it!
October 20, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterKathy R
This lovely batch of fabrics begs to be made into a grand baby girl quilt for her new bed. And those Paris labels ... oh, the ideas swirling around in my mind!
October 20, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterConnie
The fat quarters a just beautiful! I would add them to my Farmer Wife quilt
October 20, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterLorraine Welsh
Oh that is so pretty! I'd start on a spring picnic quilt, because it'd be that time before I could finish quilting it with the backlog I have!
October 20, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterAli M
Beautiful colors, I would make a baby girl crazy quilt with crazy embroidery on it, for my next grandchild a little girl to be born in March 2015.
October 20, 2014 | Unregistered CommenterDorte Kreiberg
how about patchwork pillow cover...^^
October 21, 2014 | Unregistered Commenteryenni
the fabric is yelling out "Dresden plates" and postage stamp bags, and the tape is yelling out"Love me - I am good for everything" - they are both beautiful.
