FABRIC FRIDAY!


Look at the luscious yard we have to give away to our favorite commenter this week! It's Jay-Cyn Designs for Birch Fabrics Organic Avalon Happy Cruisers in Natural from Fabricworm. Doesn't it make you just want to hop on a bike rightnow? So leave comments on any and all posts this week, we will pick our fave next Friday and announce the winner right here.

Want to see who won last week's yard? Read on to find out!




Isn't this sweet? It's the brand new Sentimental Studios Farmyard, Farmyard Scenic Cream from Fabricworm. This week's winning comment comes from Taylor at Sew Much Love on the magical tutu dress of magic post, who said:

That dress is adorable! I can't wait to make one!!! It was lucky I had a girl first because anything with tulle and sequins is a must-have for me! I only dread the age where she will no longer wear what I pick out/make for her!

That's so awesome too about what Scarlet says your job is! I'm pretty sure if my daughter could talk she'd say "She watches reruns of Dancing with the Stars and yells at her sewing machine"


HA! Go ahead and use the contact form to send us your address and Fabricworm will send off your prize!

I could use winning something right now since the squirrel attack. I was gardening with my girls when it jumped off our roof, ran like mad then died on their jungle gym.

I just got my BELOVED beach cruiser out of storage and this fabric makes me want to scream in excitement. Although, birds notoriously hate me, so I'd be a little afraid these would crap on my head...

In all honesty, though, I don't think anyone could really beat Tamera's comment. :)

P.S. I'm sorry if this posts more than once as this computer is being a turd in a punchbowl.

OH, I SO need this to further indoctrinate our daughter in the world of cycling...the husband follows all cycling events & cycles himself and has even started making finger-puppets for all the major riders in the tour de france this year so she can follow along!!!

Love this! Makes me think of taking our 18 month old on bike rides with us - she loves being on the childseat in front being able to see everything and point to all the doggies along the way. The fabric is perfect for the snappy dress for our little bike rider me thinks.

What beautiful fabric! It makes me dream of the life I want to live. One full of nature, bike rides to the farmers market, warm and cool colors, and enjoying life. :)

Love. Would be so lovely to fold up and put in my bicycle basket, then ride to the park with my little man and lay it down on the ground for a picnic lunch! (and maybe eventually I'd get around to making something with it in my [hahahahaha] "free time.")

Makes me want to run outside and hop on my bike right now. Too bad its over 100 degrees outside. Yuck! This fabric would make it totally worth it though. So cute!

Beautiful fabric just what I am looking for!

My Sister in law have about 6 beach cruiser bike (her collection) and I am looking for a fabric to make her some wall decor and kitchen decor i'm specifically looking for a fabric with bikes on it. She would love it as her birthday gift for July and she just recovered from a surgery so making something with bikes on them will be a motivation.

I look at this fabric and am left wondering how someone has managed to tap into my imagination and create a fabric to represent it. I'm scared and excited and the same time!

That would be the perfect fabric to make a shirt for my hubby-one of those nifty button down with a collar type shirts. Know what I mean? Have never tried to make one but this fabric would definitely get me pumped to try! =)

Here in El Puig, a little town in Valencia Spain, it is a must to have a bike to enjoy the rides through the orange fields. I would make two kids backpacks to take their snacks in these gorgeous spring afternoons. I have a girl (6 years old this august) and a boy (4 but bigger than my princess) and they both told me they love the fabric!

I did dog adoptions this weekend instead of relaxing I helped save the lives of 20 shelter dogs. I do this out of the kindness of my heart because I love animals. I also have 3 foster kitties and a wild bird that fell out of its nest. It would be super nice to win something. I love fabric and your site is the best. Thank you so much for all you do.

Whenever I see a bicycle I think of my dear friend Roxy. She never rode a bike as a child and as soon as she got married, her husband put her on a bike and she rode straight into a tree. She does better these days...

As a cycling family, I would KILL for this fabric! The girls in their bike trailer while wearing bicycle dresses? Does it get any sweeter than that?!

My dad's girlfriend just helped me buy my first bike (I am 32, no joke). She is a bike advocate and a little bag with the fabric would be the perfect 'thank you'. Then I could make that tunic dress for my girl and we could try out the bike trailer a friend gave us. It would be glorious!

I love this fabric! I've just discovered your blog and I'm enjoying entering your various giveaways. You have some really cool stuff! (How much do I need to compliment you to be picked to win this? LOL)

I think I would make a tote bag of some sort with the bike material - to be used in conjunction with riding a bike, naturally!

I conquered a 15-year fear of bike riding this spring, and now my two-year-old refers to us as the "Bicycle Samily (family)." That fabric would make a top-notch romper for little Sal.
