free fabric
Happy Monday! I feel like giving away some free fabric today-just because. :) If you would like to win these 4 fat quarters, all you need to do is leave me a comment letting me know where you are from and what you are doing today. I'll give you an example. (This idea is totally stolen/inspired by the adorable Camille. I so want her chair, by the way. Swoon!!!)
My name is AmandaJean and I live in Wisconsin. Today I am doing laundry and I am working on my Swell quilt. I am making chicken wild rice for dinner in my crock pot so I have more time to sew!
In your comment, please make sure there is a way for me to contact you in the event that I draw your name. Thanks!
edit: the contest is now closed.

My name is Abby and I live in Kansas. I'm still learning to quilt and I have made some successful projects and some not so successful. I tutor middle school students today and have night school tonight so sadly, I don't think I will get in any sewing today.

I can't believe that I'm the first to send a comment. I love the fabric, of course, but also really enjoy reading your blog, virtually everyday. So consider me "in". Today is my monthly meeting of the Clothing and Textile Advisors - a group under the Extension Service of Washington State University (like Master Gardners except for fabric). We are sewers and quilters and knitters. So off to the shower and head out the door.
Good wishes

I'm Beth from southern California. My little boy is sick today, so I will be a nurse and sew a few stitches when I find time.

Hi! I am Kathy and I am home working on Valentine's presents for my nieces and nephews! Just finished the cutest tic tac toe set for the younger crew. Now working on hanging hearts for the teenage girls.
Once they are all done they should be on my blog (I say hopefully - with rain its hard to photo!)
I'd love to win! I'm Arizona and I live in Chicago. Its going to be warm today so after I pick up my son from preschool we're going to play outside for a while. Then I'll come in and attempt to finish painting our living room. I'm totally unmotivated to finish it, so I'll probably steal away to my sewing room to work on a Wall-E/Lightening McQueen quilt I'm making for Luke. And a crock pot dinner sounds like a GREAT idea, so I'm going to go do that now. :)
I'm Julie from sunny North Carolina... Today I start training for my new job (yay!), and I'm working on editing photos and getting them organized, but I really can't wait to sew a spring top... so maybe my reward will be cutting it out tonight. ;-)
My name is Mary Anne and I now live in Lake Wylie, SC. We are in the middle of moving, so today, I am heading back to Fuquay Varina, NC to meet the movers that are going to pack up our old house and bring it to SC when we get our new house in 2 weeks. Therefore I am driving 3 hours, then cleaning up all of the stuff in the old house that I don't want the movers to take. Thanks for the opportunity to win some fabric Amanda Jean!!

Today I am at home, so good to have a day off! I am cleaning, and rearranging my sewing room, It has gotten messy and the furniture arrangement was just not working.

Hi, I'm Christine and I live in Texas. Today I have cleaned my bedroom, my kids bedroom, organized some of the garage (just got new shelving), I have a doctor's appointment at 2pm (I'm pregnant), and I'm making grilled chicken cobb salad for dinner because it's delicious! Tonight after the kids go to bed, I'm planning on cutting out the fabric for my daughter's easter dress (gotta keep it a secret, you know!)
I think I'm clickable, but my email is dcashby at gmail dot com, obviously without the spaces, etc.
Love your blog!
Hi, my name is Amy and I live in the San Francisco Bay Area. Today I am going to pick up working on a quilt that I set aside in October -- I really want to finish piecing the top. I'm going to a pilates mat class at noon, and I'll be making homemade pizza (using homemade dough from the Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes a Day book) for dinner tonight. Possibly followed by either an episode of The Wire on Netflix or Tomb Raider (which I have seen before, but now that I have actually BEEN to that tomb/temple, I want to see it again!).
My name is Wendy and I live in Austin, Texas. Today i'm at work! I'm taking a break by reading some blog updates. A few nights ago I finished a coffee and cream quilt and posted it on my blog.

If I win, leave me a comment on my blog and i'll see it!

I'm Wendy and I live in Amarillo, Texas. Today I am home all day because I am determined to potty train my first daughter, who is proud to be wearing her princess panties today. My next child is due in 50 days, so that's creating a sense of urgency! Today I'm hoping to finish a quilt based around Michael Miller's pink cupcake fabric to be donated to a silent auction. It's the first one I've done for charity and it's been fun!

Today I"m sewing some travel tissue holders in red/white to give to the ladies I work with for Valentines Day. I love working with fat quarters. I work almost full time,but also love to sew.

Hello crazymomquilts!
My name is Katie and I'm from Chicagoland.
Today I'm drawing a garden plan for a prospective client. Great to be thinking about plants, when it is still winter (albeit a bit milder today) outside.
Also hoping to start some wristlet sewing this evening. I love polka dots and so I'm hoping to win those cool fat quarters!
Thanks for doing the giveaway. Very cool.
I'm Kristine in live outside of Spokane Washington....today I am cleaning the house! yahoo!
My name is Simone and I am from Germany. I have been following your blog for about a year now - you rock!
Today I am lucky to have my MIL here to bring and pick up the kid from kindergarten and so some housework. Since I am 36 weeks pregnant this is great. We had pumpin spagetti for lunch and I used some time for working on my first quilt top ever. It is a little bit wonky but I am very excited about it. Maybe I can finish it tonight and start quilting tomorrow. Also my first try ...
I'm Sarah from Pennsylvania, I'm doing laundry and school and hopefully going to do some scrapbooking and sewing later! Love the fabric!
Hi, I am Carol from East TN and I'm working in my office trying to solve an impossible problem. Please enter me, I could use a pick-me-up and what better way than with fabric.
Hi Amandajean, My name is Diane and I am in Louisville, Kentucky. I'm working today (grrrr!) but plan to cut out an apron and some oven mitts when I get home for my Mom's birthday which is coming up in a few weeks. I'm thinking I'll make burritos (enchilada style) and spanish rice for dinner tonight. Or maybe I'll just sew and tell the husband and son they're on their own! Probably not, but it sounds good.
Holy cow, girl! That is a ton of comments! You have become quite popular, for obvious reasons! :) Of course I would love some free fabric. I'm from Vancouver, WA (just across the Columbia River from Portland, OR). Today i'm sewing the binding onto my red + white hourglass quilt. And then it's off to finish up another sewing project and pattern for the "shop". Oh yeah, and I have to take care of a teething 8 month old. So, nix the last line about "another project" and "pattern". I'm sure that wont happen.
So many people read your blog - that's because we all admire your beautiful quilts and aspire to quilt as you do someday. I'm Dawn - today I should be homeschooling my kids, but since a morning haircut trade fell through, I'm checking fun blogs instead. iliketoquilt@hotmail.com

Today I *should* be getting a couple loads of laundry done, a run to the store, kids taken on an outing, homework completed, sheets changed, beds made, ... the list goes on and on. What I *am* doing, is trying to win some free fabric! All that other stuff can wait :).

Hi I'm Andrea! I live in Sherwood Park, Alberta, Canada, which is about 5 minutes east of Edmonton. Today, after dropping off ds to school,I just finished chopping the 3 inch ice on the sidewalk, after we had a big melt this weekend, and it refroze. Cam had fun "skating" on it while I chopped. After I get off this addictive computer, I'm tackling the laundry monster, and going to sort through the boys' drawers and get a bag of donation clothes ready. (outgrown it stuff) I'll be also working away at my quilt and hopefully have the top done today. In between all that, I always make time to watch my one vice of the day "Days of Our Lives", in fast forward on my PVR. I really want to find out if Sammy and Rafe get together, and whether Mimi wants her baby back, unknowingly after the baby switch that Nicole did. It's truly tragic. LOL. It's truly tragic that I watch it.
For dinner, I'm making HoisinGlazed Salmon with steamed veggies and mashed potatoes. It should be rice, but I have to accomodate my picky eaters.
My turn! My name is Leann Pye. I live in Jacmel, Haiti. My husband and I run an orphanage that keeps us very busy daily. My contact info is on our website at:

Hi! My name is Toby and I live in the Dallas/Ft. Worth, Texas area.

This is Ann from Copenhagen, Denmark. I want to make a giveaway too and wondered how to do it - this is a brilliant way and I may decide to be a copycat ;)
The evening is closing in here, so my day has been very basic: Working Monday, returning home I have started applications on 2 pillows for kids, dĂĽrĂĽms will make it out for dinner and then some more application for dessert *yummy*.
Hi, I'm Kit, and today I'm doing the following things:
1) working at my day job for the Attorney General (love my job, but, see number two);
2) wistfully wish I could be outside where there is this bright yellow thing in the sky which is a colour I believe is called "blue". We haven't seen that bright thing for a number years - okay - only weeks (it's been minus 30s and grey for a really long time here);
3) go home after work and start quilting a UFO with my newly purchased bamboo batting! Have you tried it yet? It's luscious and soft and yummy!
4) remember to tell my loved ones who much I do (Love them, that is) and maybe prove it by making a yummy dinner. Failing that - by buying them one. :)
Hope you have a great day!
