I received these Queen Street fabrics from Jennifer Paganelli as part of my prize for the Sew, Mama, Sew Pieced Pillow Contest. Aren't they beautiful? When I opened the package, I was confused because I was sent more fabric than I was supposed to receive so I contacted Jennifer Paganelli through her website. Madeline, her assistant, wrote back that it was not a mistake! Apparently Jennifer likes to be extra generous. So what should I make? I have nine fat quarters and two larger pieces (a half yard and a yard). Additionally, I have two pieces of laminate (in the back). One is a yard and the other is two yards. I was wondering if I had enough to make myself a raincoat out of that pretty pink print. It's two yards and I wear a size XS/S. I have to take a look at some more patterns and see. Then I thought of lunch bags, of course. Any other ideas?
The FedEx truck delivered a 12" down filled cube shaped pillow form today. That prize was contributed by Downlite. I am not quite sure what to do with a cube shaped pillow but I will think of something. I know that the kids would think that it was super fun to run and dive on but I am not sure that I want them doing that!
Sweet prize! That would be fun if you could get a raincoat out of the laminate.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!!! Such great colors!!! That was very sweet of her to send you extra too! :)
ReplyDeletei saw a very cute button tufted cube pillow covered in burlap and stenciled on very cute
ReplyDeleteYou lucky girl! They really are pretty. How about a changing pad? One side cloth the other side laminate.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh those are beautiful!! I love a generous woman! Those are really, really nice!
ReplyDelete12" cube....use some of your fun winnings and make a huge dice!!!:) I know that is plural but I wasn't sure you'd understand what I meant...I know I wouldn't have!:)
ReplyDeleteOkay, dealing with some serious Paganelli jealousy here!!! Droool!! Okay, if someone had to win besides me, I am glad it was you! Can't wait to see what you make out of your winnings!!
ReplyDeleteholy mackerel! what a prize package! what could you make?... hmmm... what about some lovely summer hats for your kids?
ReplyDeleteI may have to rethink this friendship - you wear XS?!? Just kidding - I'd love to see you make a raincoat, that would be AWESOME!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic prize! I hope that you find a raincoat pattern that will work.
ReplyDeleteLike Krista I’m so impressed by the XS/S that I didn’t even notice the fabrics... LOL!
ReplyDeleteYou received some very nice presents. I’m curious to see your raincoat!
