Rina Mason said...

No I haven't but I have been inspired by fabric collections to make other things.

Cheryl's Teapots2Quilting said...

Oh how pretty! I see Jean has commented (first comment). She would do well with these lovely batiks, with one of her lovely quilts (maybe orange peal style).

DebrafromMD said...

No I haven't, but some collections just beg to be made into certain patterns.

Joanna said...

No, at least not a quilting fabric collection. It takes a while for me to be inspired by fabric; mostly I love looking at it and hate to cut it too soon.

Joyce Carter said...

Not for a wedding, but I have been inspired to make other things with a fabric collection.

Renea said...

Not for a wedding but have had that inspiration hit for baby quilts. Thanks for the beautiful fabric giveaway.

Lori said...

For my sons wedding I made him a civil war quilt with civil war fabrics. I was going to use two fabric collections but I wound up using a bunch of different collections to give it the normal scrappy civil war look.

Stitchin At Home said...

No I haven't yet.

Joanne said...

I have! When Forever Yours by Robyn Pandolph was first out, it was exactly what I needed to make the chair and table coverings for a friend's garden wedding. She fell in love with the fabric and after the wedding I made a bed quilt for the couple. They still use and have the quilt and the fabric line's name was even used in their personalized vows. :-)

Barb Neiwert said...

No wedding inspirations from fabric collections, but I sure do get inspired for baby and toddler quilts with your fabrics! That's usually the next step for quilt making after the wedding, teehee.

lindawwww said...

I haven't been inspired for a wedding with a bundle of fabrics but maybe I haven't just seen the right bundle yet!

Laura said...

Love these red fabrics. I've often seen a collection and "knew" exactly what I had to make with it. Have not really had a wedding quilt to make so perhaps that thought has not been in my mind.

Linda Williamson said...

Not necessarily for a wedding quilt but maybe a particular pattern. These are stunning colors. Thanks for the giveaway. grinnie1961 at gmail dot com

Nancy said...

I've never been inspired to sew for a wedding, much less sewed for a wedding without inspiration!

Janie said...

For a wedding quilt the fabrics would have to be white on white, antique white, pure white etc...

Lin said...

I think if it were my own wedding, I would be inspired by Peaceful Meadow. The colors are so soft and pretty. Love the reds for something else, though!

Angie said...

No I have not been so inspired by fabric that I knew it'd be perfect for a wedding. I am new to sewing and quilting so I've only saw a few fabrics thus far! The fabric bundle is beautiful!! Good luck everyone in the giveaway! angielovesgary2 atgmail dotcom

Anonymous said...

I have to confess I have not, but I have seen many of your fabrics that it could be a definite possibility. Like the Peaceful Garden line by Mary Jane Carey.

Unknown said...

I love batiks and many of them would be perfect for accents. I tried to sew my wedding gown and it was a disaster. I was only 19 and thought I could sew anything, lol. :)

Michele T said...

I've never made a wedding quilt yet... when my son or daughter marry, that will be my first!!! These fabrics are gorgeous!! My fingers are crossed!!

allthingzsewn said...

I don't think I have ever looked at a piece of fabric and thought wedding. But I have thought as a particular couple for a wedding gift. This is a gorgeous bundle,but not speaking to me at this moment. But I would love to have it in my stash until it did.

Mona Phelps said...

No - but I am looking for something!

cindy m said...

This would be perfect for a special person I know!! Making a memory quilt and these are her favorite colors! Awesome Fabric!!

Janarama said...

I can't say that I have, but have been inspired by a fabric collection to make other things.

scottylover said...

I have! I saw a bundle of red, gray and white fabrics that had a silver overlay on them an knew they would be wonderful in a wedding quilt for my husband's niece!

Kathy E. said...

I'd love to be inspired by fabric to create something romantic for one of my children's weddings!

Beth said...

I've never been inspired to quilt or sew for a wedding, but several fabric lines have been just perfect for certain brides & grooms as their wedding quilts, which usually arrive long after the wedding if I am the quiltmaker.

Bonnie58 said...

gorgeous. I live Ted's and can totally see these I'm a wedding quilt.thanks for sharing.

Sherry said...

Fabric has inspired me to plan colors for a wedding but fabric inspires me every day to want to create something.

Vicki H said...

I haven't sewn for a wedding.

Jo Anne H said...

Batiks come in such a variety of color and design. I would really enjoy working with these fabrics.

Miriam said...

This bundle would be beautiful in a double wedding ring quilt.

Mary Ann said...

Great giveaway. It would be fun to win...survivor972002@midco.net

Cecilia said...

I haven't made anything for a wedding gift yet. But these beautiful batiks would make a perfect wedding quilt.

susan said...

Red the colour of "love" and I have a wedding this summer!

ledamewood said...

No, I've never made a quilt for a wedding.

Unknown said...

Yes I have made several quilts for wedding gifts. Love the fabric, would love to made a appilque quilt with the fabric. Thanks for sharing.

jec said...

fabrics have certainly inspired me to create projects but not necessarily a wedding project. however, today is my birthday...i am sure i could come up with a nice little something for myself with these beautiful fabrics :) thanks for the great give-a-way. janet jecagain@gmail.com

OhioLori said...

No..haven't been inspired by a collection, to make a wedding quilt...yet. :)

Thank you for chance to win this Bundle of gorgeousness!! :D

Karen Hootman said...

That's a beautiful bundle. I love batiks.

teachpany said...

So pretty! I've been inspired by fabric for a wedding gift, but haven't made anything yet, because there hasn't been a wedding! Thanks for the pretty fabric and chances to win.

Cathy C said...

Beautiful batiks, I've never been inspired by fabrics that shouted out to become a wedding gift....

Anonymous said...

Not for a wedding, but for a special girl's graduation. Red is my favorite color and I would love to win this lovely bundle! Thanks for the opportunity.

MoeWest said...

I haven't made any wedding quilts, but I'm often inspired by the fabric to create a special quilt.

Judi Duncan said...

No, I have never thought of sewing anything for a wedding...not sure I could take that much pressure!

GranChris said...

I saw a Hawaiian print once that I thought would be perfect for a beach wedding. I don't think the weddings today are like they were when I got married. The roses, etc are out.

Cathie said...

I haven't seen any fabric that inspired me for a wedding. I am probably too old fashion to think of using any fabric in a quilt store for a wedding unless it was a wedding quilt.

Unknown said...

I have not had to deal with weddings in a while! I have have seen collections that inspired me to decorate a room

Lisa England said...

Although I have made many quilts as wedding gifts, I haven't really thought about colors and fabrics to use in a wedding. When I make a wedding quilt I check out the wedding registry and find colors that will work with the new couple's decor so the quilt will be something they can use.

Susan L. said...

Not for a wedding, but I have been inspiration by lines for other occasions. Thanks for the great giveaway!

Vicki in MN said...

Haven't made one for a wedding. I usually just pic and choose fabrics I like not necessarily within a collection.

Anonymous said...

Batiks are my favorite. These look especially rich and vibrant!

Kathy said...

not yet - I love batiks

cjmont said...

not for a wedding, but this bundle inspires me to do a texas sunset quilt.

Deb G. in VA said...

I haven't sewn any wedding quilts. Love the red batiks!

lalaluu said...

I don't think of weddings when I look at quilting fabric. I'd have to look at lace, tulle, satin, etc. to think of weddings.

Quilting Tangent said...

Nothing for a wedding. This is a beautiful collection. 24Tangent@gmail.com

Heidi said...

Love that, "practically finished" hahaha, I have actually been inspired by a line for a wedding quilt. Gorgeous lilac batiks they are, and they are still in the "practically finished" phase , ahahaha!

Mom C said...

If I am sewing for a wedding, I am usually sewing someone else's ideas. I have seen certain lines and known they would be perfect for a wedding quilt for a specific couple. Thanks.

Tami said...

Love the batiks, they are beautiful, want to use in quilt for my daughter's boy friend, no wedding bells...

Joy said...

I have not made a quilt for a wedding gift yet, but those beautiful colors would sure work. Love love love batiks.

Seacoast Quilter said...

I haven't ever sewn for a wedding specifically. I make quilts for wedding presents, but then I'm inspired by what the people like, not a "wedding" theme.

Anonymous said...

I can't say that I have as I have never sewn anything for a wedding. Thanks!

Judy1522 said...

No I have not been seen any fabric that I thought would be perfect for a wedding.

mangozz said...

No, I haven't done any sewing for a wedding.

Amy said...

No wedding in the future here, so not yet. This fabric is beautiful.

ccamp said...

Beautiful collection. No future weddings but those fabrics would make a fantastic quilt

Rosa said...

Gorgeous collection.Yes I do.Before I stating to make quilting I sew my clothes and especially my clothes for special occasions, weddings, baptism, communions,our party with family and friends to New Year's Eve...

JANET said...

Really nice collection! I haven't been to a wedding in a long time. I usually think of weddings when I see satin and lace.

Sewgirl said...

Most collections that I adore are not wedding worthy but every once in a while something charming comes along (usually pink florals of some sort) that shouts "make me for a wedding!"

Havplenty said...

I saw a beautiful rose colored brocade fabric woven with gold thread that was simply gorgeous. I bought some and had a suit made from it to wear to my brother's wedding. I walked in place of my mother for his wedding. It was a dress and night to remember.

Lynda said...

Strange question - I have never looked at a fabric bundle and considered it to be "IN" a wedding. I have made many wedding gift quilts and for that purpose - absolutely!

Victoria said...

I'm already collecting warm batiks for a fireworks quilt - these would be a great addition.

Mary Pat Proctor said...

Love the warm and inviting colors!

Ellee said...

Most collections inspire me to make quilts for my family. Haven't been inspired to sew anything for a wedding. Years ago I used to do stained glass items for wedding gifts. -- soparkaveataoldotcom

Knittingdancer on Ravelry said...

I have never been inspired to use a certain fabric in a wedding.
I love the bright colors in this bundle of fabric.

Danette said...

Not sure if you meant to make a quilt for a wedding gift? But, I really don't sew clothes. Batiks are lovely!

Sandra Walker said...

For a wedding quilt, yes! But also yes to fabric inspiration for bridesmaid dresses and even my own wedding dress, all of which I made for my wedding, and then four years later, bridesmaid dresses for my sister's wedding.

KaliaContiki said...

Love them! We've been having a lot of wonderful sunsets lately and the remind me of the saying "red sky at night, sailors delight"

Lori S said...

Not inspired for a wedding but many other things. Love thesebatiks!

Marianne said...

Such a warm and wonderful bundle of batiks!

Karen said...

Beautiful fabrics. The would make anwesome quilt.

Joyful Quilter said...

I never thought about coordinating a quilt with a wedding. Most of the time I give away a quilt that is already made.

Jen Barnard said...

No, I haven't. I've never sewn for a wedding.
