Fat Quarter Shop GIVEAWAY! - Sweet LUSH!

Did you know that the Fat Quarter Shop was the very first, "official" sponsor of Hopeful Threads? Yep! I can still remember how warm and enthusiastic Kimberly was about helping and I am still so very grateful for their continued support!

 Aside from having one of the most amazing selections of fabric and patterns on-line, they offer incredible customer service and are just plain nice folks! 

I am very proud to wear their badge on my sidebar!

If you have been around the sewing/quilting blog world for long, you are well aware of their generosity with giveaways. And today it's our turn!!! The lovely Fat Quarter Shop is offering one of you this absolutely GORGEOUS bundle of the new Patty Young collection, Sweet Lush...

<Huge Sigh!>

Isn't that gorgeous!?!?!?

I can already imagine some of the prettiest pieces for spring for my girls using this collection! It's perfectly feminine without being too "girly" in my opinion.

There are only a handful of true quilt shops in my area, and this is one of my favorites. Mammaw LOVES what she does and it shows! There are literally thousands of bolts of fabric in her shop and tens of thousands of fat quarters. It's a visual smorgasbord that my girls and I never grow tired of! :)

 I recently participated in an I-Spy block swap that will hopefully materialize into my very first quilt sometime in the near future. There just happened to be a marble print that someone contributed that I "needed" more of, so we knew right where we were headed...to see Mammaw! And we of course found our fun marble print....

 and a few extras as well!

The rolled fat quarters are part of her clearance section and were only $1.25 each! 

I know!

 My boys picked the adorable hermit crab print in honor of our hermit crabs Bob & Larry. :)

 And then these lovelies were just for me! I love this collection! Not sure what I'll make with it just yet, but it's so beautiful.

 So, if you're in the area and looking for a greater selection and higher quality fabric than what's mostly available at the large chain stores, then I totally recommend a visit to Mammaw's! It's truly wall to wall happiness!
