Several people have asked why I was giving these fabrics away
instead of selling them. Others have been amazed that I can part with
years worth of fabrics.
So let me explain,
I have worked for Moda fabrics for over 16 years and another
12 years working and teaching quilting.
12 years working and teaching quilting.
I am obsessed about the moda designers and the fabrics they create.
I love what special people they are.
I love what special people they are.
I have a huge appetite and always think know I bite off more than
I can chew, or in other words make.
I do get an employee discount so selling my scraps
for profit, feels a bit like
some sort of Wall Street insider trading.
Since I am blessed to work for a company that produces
thousands of fabrics a year,
I just thought I would share my good fortune with you along with a
big thank you
for those of you with this final giveaway.
Did I have second thoughts about this one, heck yes!
French General’s classic red and whites takes my breath away.
(is that wrong that fabric can do that?)
Do I really really want to make this?
Yes, I have wanted to make it
since it came out in June 2011.
But I haven’t so time to wrap up the month long giveaway
what I consider to be the BEST giveaway.
Please leave a comment and I will announce the winner on Monday, Sept. 30th
No giveaway will be posted on Monday.
The winner of yesterday’s pinks is:
