My Fabric Designs Giveaway for FREE FABRIC!!!

Back in February I was contacted by My Fabric Designs with an offer of free fabric in exchange for sharing with my audience. They are an online store which sells custom printed fabric. Users can choose from any design in their curated collection or upload their own design and print them on any of their 26 fabrics. Users who choose to share their designs can make 15 percent from each sale when another user purchases that design.

My 15 year old daughter Emily of Fashionista Emily has enjoyed the role of designer. Pictured are the fabrics she has designed so far.

If you have always wanted to design your own fabric, here's your chance and enjoy $35 in FREE FABRIC! Let me know in the comments if you like Emily's designs or if you would like to be entered in the giveaway.

The GIVEAWAY is for ONE winner and will be chosen by random drawing. All you have to do is leave a comment if you would like to be entered. SHARE for EXTRA ENTRIES. Let me know where you shared it. Be sure and leave your contact information in the comments so I can get the giveaway code to you if you win. Good luck!

Fabric Organization

I am so excited to share with you this great fabric organization idea I saw over at Sophie of FilASewphie. I am going to do this. I think it would help me so much. I am posting it here because I want as many people as possible to know about this. This is too good to keep to myself. I may also add to each card the location of the fabric, like which box it is in and whether that box is in my sewing wardrobe or underneath my bed, etc. This is a quick system for being able to browse through all of your fabrics at a glance. Also, I quite often buy fabric with a particular pattern in mind and then later on forget which pattern I was going to use. I think I will call this my dream box. I can thumb through and dream of all the wonderful things I will make and imagine myself strolling along somewhere really beautiful in one of my creations with the wind blowing through my hair and the layers. Below is an excerpt of Sophie's post. You can go to her blog for the complete post. Thanks so much, Sophie, for sharing this wonderful idea with us. I can't wait to put it into practice. Dear Readers, I would love to know how you organize your fabric. I'm always looking for ways to get more organized. This is one of the things that is so great about blogging, that we can learn from one another.


Nearly every piece of fabric has its own index card. (Exceptions are small scraps and quilting cottons.)

On this index card is written useful information, for example, the type of fabric, how much there is, where it came from and when it was acquired, and pattern ideas. A little swatch of the fabric is glued onto the card.



The cards are kept in an index card box with little dividers. The dividers are labeled according to fabric type, for example, fancy fabrics, knits, wovens, etc.
