Do you have a void in your life? For example, if you were asleep at 4 AM, you don't have Tommy Cat in your life. Well, today we're having a GIVEAWAY to help fill a void. While Tommy would like to send you a kitten, I'm offering the next best thing: fabric.
In celebration of Tommy turning 18 years old this month and to participate in Vicki W.'s Summer Giveaway, I'm offering 18 fat quarters of cat fabric. Or as an alternative, 18 fat quarters in the color of your choice. Or 18 fat quarters of batiks (assorted colors). To be included in this giveaway, please leave a comment letting me know your preference: cats, batik, yellow, blue, red, orange, pink, teal/turquoise, purple, green, black, or black and white. And to the best of my ability, I will try to keep Tommy from slipping a kitten in with your winnings. (Comments received before July 5 will be included, with the random winner announced July 5.)
And for those of you who can't get enough yellow, here are my yellow fish for the Scrappy Rainbow challenge.

My stash is lacking in black & white prints so I would love to win some. Thanks for the giveaway!

Debra said...

What a face!!!! Love your fish... and no, I don't need a kitten. But thanks for the offer, Tommy! Maybe Tommy would like some of those fish for his birthday!

I am thinking the same thing, Tommy is eyeing those fish! I am lacking red in my stash but with a schnauzer in the house there is no room for kittens.

Jean said...

Batiks are my weakness, and your collection of cat fabric gives me the giggles. My kitty, Inky, usually waits until five before jumping on my stomach and demanding to be petted!

Oh, those fish are sooooo cute. I made some 6 inch blue crumb fish last year. What is your size, please?

Oh, I LOVE novelties and have a drawer of cat fabrics but I don't think any of your cats on fabrics look familiar to me.

No void here in re cats...we live in the country and have a bed (in the barn) and breakfast (bowls of cat food and all the field mice they can find) for all the strays that show up every day - usually about 15 of them. (I think city people get a cat, don't want them anymore and bring them out to the country and let loose. That's why we run a "cat house"!)

I like all your yellow fish; it's a really fun block. If I win the draw, I don't mind what you send; whatever it is I can use it!

What a great collection of yellow fish. So many fun fabrics! I have a shortage of oranges in my stash. Trying hard to fill it out a bit.

You've got to keep Tommy away from those adorable little fish. What a great collection of fabrics! Any bright fabrics would be welcome. Thanks for the give away and Happy Birthday to Tommy.

Visiting from Vicki's linky! I'd love to win the batiks. I haven't used them much, and this year I am doing a block of the month all in batiks on my blog. I'm probably a no-reply, so you can find me at craftnut at rocketmail dot com. Carole @ From My Carolina Home.

Your yellow fish are wonderful! I have two kitties of my own, so I'll have to pass on Tommy's offer of a kitten, but I'd love to win some Black and White prints.

Tommy is welcome to send a kitten, otherwise batiks would be a great addition - always love seeing a photo of Tommy, he is so handsome.

Carol H. said...

No kittens please! (My cat would be less than happy about that.) As a substitution I'd like the orange please!

Thanks for the giveaway. (Visiting from Vicki's site.)

Love your goldfish crackers! Happy birthday, Tommy. I'd love to win some black/white prints. They go with EVERYTHING!

Sheila said...

Love your goldfish and your feline friend. What a lovely giveaway. I hope I win : )

Terri said...

Love your yellow fishes! and thank you for keeping kittens out of my winnings. You are very thoughtful. I love batiks, any color, but red is my favorite. Happy Birthday to Tommy!
Hugs

Vicki H said...

Wow Sally, what a generous giveaway. I would love yellow and oranges. Thanks.

Katie Z. said...

Ooh, teal turquoise is my favorite! Your fish are fabulous.

Deb A said...

Tommy is hungry and wanting some fish! No kittens for me - I've got two 9 year old cats keeping me company and waking me up in the middle of the night! If I win - surprise me =).

Julierose said...

Oh definitely kitties fabrics; I miss my "Schumee" cat so much--want to make a memory quilt for her...she was a calico and such a sweetie--hugs, and thanks for the chance to win...Julierose

Angie said...

Love your "goldfish"! And congrats to Tommy for 18 wonderful years! FWIW, I'm usually awakened at 3 AM by Moxie cat, who thinks that's the best time for ear scratches.

Mystic Quilter said...

Love the fish Sally - but better watch out for more cats coming along shortly to keep company with Tommy!! As you know I have stacks of cats living in my sewing studio - sixty to be exact - so I'm quite overrun with four legged furry critters - I could have a ball with batiks though!!

Dasha said...

Tommy is just beautiful. I would happily give him house space except I think my Tibby would throw a hissy fit. I would loooove the kitty fabrics if I were to be lucky enough to be selected.
Your yellow fish are just too cute. Luckily Tommy hasn't seen them or they might be a figment of your imagination.

Love your pictures of Tommy -- and such a great idea. I'd love to the cat fabrics - I've finally figured out what to do with mine and they would be a great addition.

Great looking cat, but no cat fabrics!!! Anything else would be so wonderful to win. Thanks for the giveaway!

shirley said...

Orange would be my choice...nice and bright and sunny. if they didn't make me sneeze, even a kitten would be welcome. thanks for the giveaway.

Andee said...

The fish blocks are TOO cute! I love the cat fabric idea...I don't have much of that but know a few folks who would love something quilty made with cat fabric! :) I have a kitty so hope not to see any live kitties come to my door! :)

Gill said...

I love the fish!
I'd choose orange as I have hardly any in my stash !

Sarah said...

Midgie, Squeaky and Zorro voted for me to ask for the cat fabrics if I win!
As much as I would adore a kitten, I don't think my current clowder would appreciate one. Maybe Tommy can visit my blog for Feline Friday sometime...

Rebecca said...

Oranges, please! I have a serious deficit of them.

This is very generous of you, and I have enjoyed looking at your many quilt critters! Cats, kittens, cranes, mice, and fish...oh my!

p.s. I have an old "redhead" and white cat, too, but a girl! She's over 21 years old (on a human calendar!) Fortunately,I also have a husband, who takes the morning calls.

I would love cat fabric!! I have a collection already started. Thank You & Tommy for the giveaway
