Yummy Fabric and Some Other Randomness

I have to apologize to you all for being MIA throughout the last few weeks. We have some very exciting, life-changing, and a little bit scary news to announce soon . . .

In the meantime I have some exciting things coming up on the blog!

I am working on my first tutorial! The tutorial itself is pretty much done, I just need to get some halfway decent pictures to go along with it.

I also have a giveaway from CSN Stores coming up next week! I am super, super excited to be giving away a gift code to their online stores! That giveaway will go live on Monday so make sure to check back!

I thought I would share with you some of the yummy fabric I got for Christmas! My Mom, Dad, and brother Andy got me a gift card to Lola Pink Fabrics, my favorite online fabric store. I was able to get a bunch of fat quarters from Pat Bravo's Paradise line, as well as 4 1/2 yard cuts of Ty Pennington's line Impressions, and 2 fat quarters of my all time favorite Heather Bailey's Nicey Jane!

Here is the Paradise:

And here is what I got from the Impressions line:

Oooohhh pretty!

I am super excited to start working with these gorgeous fabrics!

Did anyone else get any sewing related goodies for the holidays?

Nicey Jane and a Nicey Giveaway

I got my Nicey Jane in the mail!

I went a little crazy and bought 7 total yards (14 1/2 yard cuts) from Lola Pink Fabrics due to their amazing sale . . . I had also promised it to myself as my reward for going back to work.

I also found two full yards online for an amazing price at a fabric store that is going out of business . . . so I have 9 yards of Nicey Jane!

I'm in heaven! The thing is, there are at least 5 more prints I need to have! So I am making myself a list for when I go online fabric shopping again! These prints make me all twitterpated and I can't remember what I started looking for!

Eeeek! I am so excited. It is so pretty!

You may remember last week when I posted about buying the Nicey Jane I told you I would give some away? Well I am! I am giving away, to one lucky winner, these four fat quarters:

Everyone together now: "Oooohhh, Aaaaaahhhh!"

The fat quarters are (top to bottom) of Slim Dandy in Pink, Swing Toss in Pink, Pocketbook in Rose, and Welcome Road in Pink!

But wait! There is more!

(Oh my gosh, I am channeling Billy Mays!)

The lovely ladies Janet and Jennifer from Lola Pink Fabrics included in my shipment two more fat quarters for me to give away to you!

They sent a fat quarter each of Lindy Leaf in Tangerine and Hope Dot in Tangerine!

How insanely nice of them was that? I am so thrilled to be able to pass their awesomeness on to you! Make sure you check out Lola Pink Fabrics the next time you need to buy some fabric!

So, to recap: You have the chance to win six . .. that is 6! . . . gorgeous fat quarters of Nicey Jane . . . dude, that is a yard and a half! Not too shabby!

If you are not wiping drool from your chin this very minute there is something seriously wrong with you!
