Someone once told me that they wished they could crawl up and live in my scrap bin. Well, now's your chance (er, sort of)! My scraps are starting to explode out of the large bin I hold them in and it's time to make room for new scraps. Please leave a comment for your chance to win a priority mail flat rate box stuffed to the seams with both large and small fabric scraps (and some fat quarters too!), including but not limited to these wonderful designers:
Anna Maria Horner, Tula Pink, Amy Butler, Heather Bailey, Momo, Sandi Henderson, and more!
Leave a comment by May 31st telling me what you would like to make with these scraps: doll quilt? patchwork belt? applique? The possibilities are endless! I'll draw one random winner on June 1st and will ship the scraps off on June 3rd. I will ship internationally.
Be sure to check out the other great giveaways going on right now over at the Sew Mama Sew blog. Good luck!

almost exclusively, i make scrap quilts - so this is perfect for me!
thanks so much for the opportunity to get my hands on those scraps!
cheers :)
one fun thing would be to use it to piece together binding. i've never used binding that was all different fabrics, but i love it when i've seen other people do it. :)
I'd be using them for so many things!! Headbands, pincushions, scrap quilts, note book covers, scrunchies, tissue holders, fabric balls for baby....the list is endless!
I'm gathering more fabric scrap to make my girl I-spy blanket. Would be great if I can get more fabric scrap. :)
I would probably make... a purse! I love making purses with scraps!
Wow you have a lot of comments :-) Guess we all love scraps! Thanks for adding me to your giveaway.
I love scraps! I've recently taken up string and crumb piecing in my quilts and I'm always looking for more bits of fabric to add variety. Your scraps would have a good home in my "studio"!

I'm planning a quilt for my daughter using my scraps... but I need more to make it the right size. This would be perfect!

That's a tough one! I'm thinking stripwork skirt for my little girl.

thanks rach

little clothes for softies. You gotta have a well-dressed softie, I say.
I am decorating my apartment with starched fabric in a variety of exciting designs!I plan to tackle each door front first and then move on to empty wall spaces. Sounds like your scrap stash is just the ticket!

alana23 at gmail dot com
Depends on the size of the scraps but small ones would be good for doll clothes, or chibi rabbits, or blankets for the doll house. Bigger scraps could be for all the quilts I plan to do in the next few decades?
Mmm. Sounds like a delicious scrap assortment! :) My latest sewing endeavor has been little purses, bags and makeup bags. Am just getting into it, so it would be fun to make some appliques and patchwork bags.
Definitely get some of the applique done for my daughters shirts and I could make a dolls quilt for her too!

I would use the scraps to make a couple cute quilts to fill my walls - they look quite blank!
Enjoy your giveaway!
I have promised to make a cushion for a colleague, and I'm thinking of doing a log cabin type block. Scraps would be perfect - and I have terrible trouble chosing fabric so this would also solve that problem!
I would love to win. I have been promising to make myself an apron, and since I can't find a fabric I like, I have decided to do a scrap quilt pattern of many different fabric for the apron. Since I am always cooking in many different directions, it just seems appropriate.
Yeah, fabric! I just started quilting, so I'd add this fabric to my stash for quilt #2.
I'll do a patchwork pillow case. It would be great to put in my bedroom.
Thanks a lot for the chance and please count me in.
I could think of a few million things to use the scraps for!
I have 3 girls, so doll things definitely!
Sounds like you have quite the collections of scraps. I've got some ideas for some lanscape art quilts that scraps are most welcome.
What a great giveaway. I'd make some scrappy skirts for my 3 girls.
I would love some scraps, what a great giveaway!

I need scraps. I gave away all of mine before I started quilting. That will teach me to try to be uncluttered!
Sweet, I love scraps. I've been using mine for baby booties, pincushions, and card holders, but I also want to make a belt, wallet, and a patchwork bag!
oh, scraps, I love scraps! I would probably use them for quilts and patchwork. sewing for the new baby these days : )
I would make a piecy quilt. I would try a stab at other things, but it would always come back to quilts!
How exciting. I would make so many things! First, I would make a mess and spread everything out on my floor. Then after dancing around all my new fabric and dreaming a bit, I would make an organizer for my husband [ha, do you realize the irony? I make the messes. He has "organizers"]. Then I should make some small carrying bags for myself. Then I will make some head-covers for work.
I would probably use the scraps for appliques.
mom0ja at yahoo dot com

pick me, pick me!
Can you ever have enough scraps? I love to make little hotpad-trivets for the table. They are great little gifts. Plus I love to make 9 patch blocks and discover the possibilities of what they can become. Thanks for the chance!!!
I LOVE scraps! The last scrap project was a fabric bowling set for a 3 year old boy! I also like to make plushies out of them and I know I want to make a banner for my baby who is turning 1 in July. Thanks for the opportunity! And check out my blog if you want to see the bowling set (I got the tutorial from London Mummy).

Thanks!
