This fabric is awesome! Our 10 yr old son has autism and we finally found something to help him with his intense interests. Van Halen being one..David Lee Roth era only :) So he is taking electric guitar lessons hoping to nail Eruption one day!

This would make the cutest guitar strap!

Crossing my fingers!

Wow, I guess I am illiterate!.. because I was thinking "oh what cute guitar fabric!"... and then I read the comments and someone said they played the ukulele. "Oh yeah, I read that on the fabric title" but thought it was some foreign language... Oye, I think it is past my bed time.

That is the most adorbs summertime fabric ever! I would love to win this stuff.. and if not, I may just have to buy some. Hehehe... Thinking of cute wifey projects I can do to create this into something for my hubby. (They look close enough to guitars and he plays, so.. :P ) Anyway, you can't go wrong with giving away/winning fabric.. because you can make it into whatever you want! :D

My sister has recently started learning to play guitar. I think this fabric would make a GORGEOUS Guitar strap.

This fabric is sweet! I agree with Bailey who wrote about how great it is that you can do these giveaways. I just filled an mp3 player with soothing country music for my Jack's (2 months old on Monday - I can't believe it!) room. This fabric reminds me of that :)

OOooHHhhh this fabric just strummed my heart strings! I'm a country girl, from the musical state of TN, who now live in NYC. I grew up with my grandparents, who have passed on now, but when I was young they regularly held "shin digs" at our house. Friends came with Banjos, guitars...you name it, and I played the spoons :). This fabric just took me back to those wonderful days of love and childhood. Amazing what a little glimpse of fabric can stir up.

SO cute. I'm a beginner sewing mama, and am discovering all of the amazing things a sewing machine and beautiful fabric can create! I would love to use that fabric to make a skirt for our 15 month od to wear to the spring concerts our town hosts. Thank you for this opportunity!!!

I love this fabric so much! I am a beginner sewer and currently teaching myself the ropes. I think this would be an adorable accent to a yellow skirt and on a matching shirt for my 3 year old daughter! I love boyish types of fabrics on little girls.

I would love to win this fabric. I would make key fobs for my SIL, his wife, my older daughter and youngest daughter. They all play the ukelele. They lived in Hawaii for a while and my SIL even took a class and built his own uke. He always laments that no one seems interested back here on the mainland.

Now, I love making clothes for kids, but this fabric....well, I might have to keep if for myself and get my summer wardrobe started with a ukelele skirt! How fun!

AGH! A fabric with Ukuleles!? GASP! So cute! My baby brother (ok, so he's 25...but when they're your baby brother, they're always babies!) so needs a pillow or a pouch or something in this fabric! He would love it!

I'm thinking of creating a Hawaiian themed shirt to go along with a grass skirt. But I'm not sure if my husband would like it if I dressed up his 9 month old son in a grass skirt.

My dad is having a Hawaiian themed cocktail/dinner party to welcome in the Spring (even though it is still snowing here!) and these little ukuleles would be perfect as a table runner under his palm leaf place mats!

I would LOVE to have this fabric-I want to make some cool upholstered wooden folding chairs ( a la anthropologie) and I think the ukeleles would be perfect! Please? Pretty Please? I'll send a picture when I'm finished!

We just moved into a new apartment & my son still cannot seem to remember that this is now home. So, we've been spending every day on our porch planting flowers and decorating it to make him smile & make it more like home for him every time we come in. Perfect weather in Texas right now so we're enjoying that time outdoors! This fabric would be adorable as either the new covers I'm making for the chairs or any other number of things to go on the porch.

How funny is the baby nose picking comment?! Is is sad that I still do that to my four year old (only occasionally I swear!) Baby nose picking is much better!

So a funny post for a Ukulele fabric...hmmmm, that reminds me of a song. Which would you like, our family has two that are sung at our house on occasion. First one...
Peanut butter and jelly, peanut butter and jelly, Penut butter and jeeeeeeleeee, peanut butter and jele! Then there is the one we made up when we found something funny in the shower. Hey Mom look into my arm pits. That is how it started, "Look into my arm pits". I will spare you the music. I think it sounds better in my head.

I just had a new baby in february and plan on taking her and my toddler to the beach this summer so that fabric would be perfect for an embelished hooded towel or beachy bag. :D

Ironically enough, I had a dream last night about playing a ukulele (which I have NEVER tried before). Definitely a sign that I should win this giveaway so I can make something cute for my girly.

I love those ukeleles! I'm going to spend my weekend listening to "Iz" playing "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" while strumming on his ukelele, thinking happy thoughts about my Hawaiian beach wedding to my beloved, and sewing up some crafty projects for our little one (mini-me) who will be be arriving in three short weeks. What happy memories and exciting times!

Other than dreaming about ukulele fabric for my daughter who just bought a ukulele...I am testing out crunchtime recipes for my contribution to the LA blogger bake sale to raise money for victims in Japan. I'm thinking either mini caramel apples or granola bars - remember I gotta go healthy.

I have plans to make my ukelele playing friend a handbag for her Birthday! She lives in not so sunny Chi-Town (Chicago) and this fabric would make her life sunnier! I think this quite possibly would make the best birthday gift ever!
