FABRIC FRIDAY!


This weeks FABRIC FRIDAY is a yard of Urban Chiks Hullabaloo, Zoology Grey. A unique twist on animal fabric with llamas, camels and ostriches, oh my! So pretty for a summer dress or appliques!

Leave comments on any and all posts this week, we will pick our fave next Friday and announce the winner right here.

Find out who won last week's Fabric Friday after the jump...


 Lizzy House 1001 Peeps Royal City Basra in Blue from Fabricworm goes to:

Sarah who said on The Easy Pocket Pillow...
We're having a combined Doctor Who birthday party for our 2 sons (their birthdays are close together, we're combining for family traveling reasons) and they're both obsessed with Dr Who. (We'll do a small cake and make their actual birthday about them with just the immediate family) I have been racking my brain for party favor ideas, since I am going to have to be creative and I think this would be awesome. Do a space themed pillow with pocket and make some bowties and add some treats. Thank you for the idea and the tutorials!! Makes my job a lot easier!

Dr Who birthday? That sounds rad! With two little guys, we guess that you can use this boy-friendly fabric!

So Sarah, go ahead and use the contact form to send us your address and Fabricworm will send off your prize!

People always say I live in a zoo with my little menagerie of animals, including snakes, lizards, tree frogs and a house bunny. So this fabric could be perfect for me!

Oh my goodness! This fabric is SO similar to one I used to know and love. My very favorite dress as a little girl was my "zoo dress", which I wanted to wear everyday. It was black, but with all the same animals. If I had this fabric I would make a dress out of it for a little girl who is a friend of the family, and I hope she would love it as much as I adored my own!

So anyway, to prove how I could really use some free fabric, check out what I made with old t-shirts. http://monkeyseemonkeydo-jennifer.blogspot.com/2011/06/bathing-suit-cover-up-tutorial.html

It didn't turn out to be all that aesthetically pleasing. Think of what I could make with this cute fabric you're giving away...

That is the coolest fabric with llamas and ostriches that I've ever seen. Ok, it's the only fabric I've ever seen with llamas and ostriches. But it's cool.

You always have great fabric Fridays! I love your choices, and this one is no exception. I have never seen fabric with llamas and ostriches before! Who knew!

I would love to have this fabric to make a dress for my 8 month old daughter. I'm obsessed with llamas. I even have a Michael Jackson llama stuffed animal that I put in her playroom. It's as weird as it sounds.

llamas and camels and zebras, oh my!

That's the thought that ran through my mind when I saw this fabric.

I love Urban Chiks fabric! They have the greatest colorways and this zoo theme is cute. My daughter's birthday is coming up and I'm thinking of a modern circus theme for her party. This fabric would be great for a skirt and also for the goody bags!

I just stumbled on your website a few days ago and I am completely smitten. I have a list of projects to do for my 2 muses, John (4) and Lily (4months). I was eyeing this fabric yesterday to make something for my bestie's first baby! LOVE LOVE LOVE.

...Sun hat, sun dress. Taking the little one to the zoo for the first time! Can you imagine her excitement that all the animals on her outfit are also at the zoo in person??
Awww... I've been trying to find something pretty but also... subdued to make this outfit with. This would be it. And I love the pink in it!

: o. We have an ostrich farm near our house and my 19 mo daughter loves them! She calls them osty.. I would love to make her a pillow or even a pillowcase dress that has osties all over it!

I love the fabric. I think that it would be awesome for a baby's room (sort of safari or zoo style). And lucky me, I'm going to be a first time grandma!

I would love this for an awesome blanket! So awesome!

This fabric would be perfect on something in the zoo we call our home! I'm thinking some throw pillows - that will surely be thrown - would be neat!

i love this fabric. my best friend recently called me out on the fact that i tend to dress myself and my 4 month old son matchy-matchy. i don't mean too, but then when i see something like this, i think, how cute would a jumper for him be,and a matching headband for mommy? i know,gag right! hahah

I like the fact that this fabric has different animals. It seems everything these days has the same ones - lions, monkeys, etc.

Love the Urban Chiks Hullabaloo, Zoology Grey! Makes me think of the children's book "Llama, Llama Red Pajama" which is an excellent book and a must have for any family library!
