Molly is delighted to announce the three winners of the fabric giveaway:
Molly is quite the scrap cat. I love playing with other people's scraps and love to be surprised, so I would let you pick what kind if I would be lucky enough to win. Happy New Year!
If Buddy could manage a nice pile of modern pieces, I'm in. I know he loves color as much as I do, so his choosing (and kicking about) is good enough for me! If a low volume scrap or 10 gets mixed in, even better. Happy Holidays to you and your family, Buddy!
Most of my scrap bins are overflowing except my low volume bin...so of course I have plans for a new block that needs them. Maybe Buddy can kick some my way if you have extras.
As you know, this fabric giveaway is a substitute for local quilt guild free tables where you can look for particular stash enhancements. Another nice feature of the free table is being able to clear the riff raff that can find its way into one's stash. And unfortunately for me, after a quilter's estate sale, I found myself accidentally in possession of one of the ugliest fabrics on the planet but no free table to dump it on.
Happily, Molly noticed that Cynthia Brunz asked for low volume fabric. This means, thanks to physics, Molly can tuck the absolutely hideous fabric(s) into the extra volume remaining in the box. Buddy wondered if Cynthia would take this as some kind of challenge to try and use the noxious substances in a quilt, and now Molly and I are crying tears from intense laughing.
Molly would also like to announce a loser...the PSP20 (Postage Stamp Pandemic 2020) quilt top that didn't get finished and will now linger into the new year.
Are you singing "I can't get started with you>>"? Some quilts just want to hang around and make trouble;;)))

I'm honored to be a lucky winner of your lovely scraps! You've got me so very curious about that hideous fabric...any chance you could post a photo? I remember a quote by a famous quilter that talked of ugly fabric and she said something like it's not cut small enough if it's still ugly. I don't know...ugly can still be in tiny pieces. Happy New Year to you and your furry friends!
ReplyDeleteMy PSP20 is lingering, too. With luck it'll be a PSP21, though PSP22 is still a possibility...
ReplyDelete(And can we pretty please get a peek at the ugliest fabric? Some of us are too curious for our own good!)
I can't wait to see what Cynthia does with the hideous fabric. That trickster Buddy will have to kick some extra crazy fabric her way! I am in love with your postage stamp quilt, it is so happy.
ReplyDeleteI just love the blocks in your quilt and look forward to seeing it put together for a real POW effect. Fabric scraps are the best!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to the winners! This is a lovely way to start the new year.
ReplyDeletei want to see the ugly fabric! I took some uglies for the free table, and what I thought was the absolute worst of them was the first to be snatched up with glee! No accounting for taste...
ReplyDeleteAdore that you and Molly are laughing so much, brought such a smile to my face this morning.
ReplyDeleteChallenge accepted!
ReplyDeleteIn fact, now I can't think of anything else. I am sure I will be meeting the postal carrier at the driveway :) When I spoke to your guild, I saw your free table - in fact, I drug home some fabrics and orphaned blocks that were still there as it was getting packed up. Maybe I will have to dig them out and combine everything.
Thanks so much Sally, Buddy and Molly. I will certainly share on my blog what I come up with.
Congrats to the lucky winners! There’s nothing like a fresh infusion of scraps to get our creative juices flowing! Now I’m dying too see that ugly fabric. If anyone can do something with it, it’s Cynthia! Wait. I guess you did something with it too - you passed it on!
ReplyDeleteYou are so entertaining, with your conversations with the kitties! giggling!
