Friday Favorite

Sorry I’m late posting today – I thought it was Thursday until I looked at my calendar to see what was on the schedule for today and realized it was already Friday! I lost a whole day somewhere this week! And on top of that, I had a class to teach this morning! I had to do some scrambling to catch up, let me tell you!

At any rate, thanks for ALL the comments to last week’s Friday Favorite giveaway; seems everyone wanted that Shangri La fabric and the winner is Pokey! Congratulations, Pokey, and thanks so much to everyone who commented for a chance to win!

Ready for another Friday Favorite giveaway? Remember I said I’d been finding all sorts of forgotten goodies tucked away at the shop? Well, here’s another “oldie but goodie” that needs a new home!

CinnamonStars

This is Cinnamon Stars by Fig Tree Quilts for Moda, and it is probably 3 or 4 years old! Once again, I’m sure we cut this for a project of some sort (loooong forgotten now!) but surely it will spark someone’s imagination! If I didn’t already have so many projects in the queue I’d keep this one for myself. The giveaway includes 65 – 5×5 inch charms, plus 3/8 yard of the gold and 1 3/8 of the large brown floral. If you missed adding Cinnamon Stars to your stash the first time around, now is your chance! Aren’t you glad I’ve been in a “cleaning mood?!?!?”

Here’s how the giveaway works – help us spread the word and get more chances to win!

  • Leave a comment for one entry.
  • Leave a comment and post about our giveaway on your blog and receive 3 entries.
  • Leave a comment and add us to your blogroll (or tell me we’re already on your blogroll) and receive 5 entries.

Remember to leave a link to your blog and/or an email address so we can contact you if you win! I’ll announce the winner in the next Friday Favorite post!  Good luck!
