We LOVE YOU Giveaway



GIVEAWAY CLOSED.

Thanks for all of the love that you gave us yesterday! We loved reading all of the comments and it is fun for us to read about your likes and dislikes. The wide range and sometimes polar opposite opinions amazed us. For example, some loved lime green whereas others were not so keen on it. We are sure that today's answers will provide an equally interesting read.

Today's featured fabric to give away is the ... and Sew On Line. Dress forms, scissors, and sewing machines are some of the adorable elements in this collection for sewing enthusiasts.


Here's a sampling of the prints in this fun collection. The rest of the line is featured on the Henry Glass website here and the free project downloads accompanying the line are fun.

 

Yesterday it was about color. Today, we'd like to know what sort of prints you like. Chevrons, flowers and woodland critters like owls have been very popular in the past few years. What sort of prints would you like to see more of? Which prints would you like to see less of?  Graphics, textures and plaids? Kids novelty? Seasonal collections like Christmas? 

Remember, there is no right or wrong answer. Just leave your answer here on the blog or on Facebook. We will select a winner of the bundle of fabric. [Selection is random and the fabric is our choice.] Giveaway ends Sunday, February 16th at midnight.

Good luck!

  3. I like a variety of prints, but it depends on the print. For example, I love some florals and dislike others.

    Generally I like geomentric and graphic prints, especially dots.

    I love Christmas prints, but prefer them to be in traditional colors.

    I find texture type prints to be really useful.

  4. I love polka dots, especially the random kind. I like diagonal stripes (great for bindings), small & medium flower prints. Thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  5. I love seasonal prints so keep them coming. I use florals often, love plaids and dots, and dislike stripes. So I would like to see fewer stripes.

    ReplyDelete
  6. I love a modern floral print and I'm also really into botanicals right now.

    ReplyDelete
  7. I like bias stripes, small color and white stripes, and textured solids.

    ReplyDelete
  8. Lately I like mostly modern prints. Especially nature inspired prints like leaves, trees, and birds. I like geometrics, and I love dots and swirls! And some novelty prints. I'm also a sucker for children's prints, particularly those with cute animals. Although I love plenty of designs that are directional, I find that scatter prints are easier to use. I don't have any interest in civil war prints or 30's prints or anything too frilly.

  9. I love items of nature... Birds, owls, trees, leaves, but with coordinating dimensional or geometric prints . I'm a little partial to Cardinals ;) Thanks for the great giveaway!

  10. I love geometrics, plaids and winter prints, not Christmas but winter. I'd like to see more of those and less of prints that all run together and make it hard to see what prints are in the pattern.

    ReplyDelete
  11. This is beautiful fabric! I would like to see some beautiful medium sized flower prints.

    ReplyDelete
  12. I love texture, chevrons, plaids, but I have a hard time using plaids.

    ReplyDelete
  13. I would love more text prints, stash building fabric like prints that read solid but have the texture look and modern geometries. Mrscwatson81(at)hotmail(dot)com

  14. I'd love fabrics that are tossed, a pattern that is ok in any direction. Or packed that has lots of a design packed into the area. I'm usually not fond of pots and pans or cups and saucers. Beats me why I don't mind forks and knives and spoons though lol. I so DISLIKE chevrons, even before they became popular. Poor Charlie Brown thinks everyone is wearing his shirts.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I'd like to see more fabric with libraries, books, children reading. I'm not so fond of chevrons even though they are hugely popular. Thanks for this fun giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  16. I would love more polka dots and asymmetrical geometric prints. Also, I think its time for the paisley to make a new updated, modern return!

    ReplyDelete
  17. A combination of prints some with florals and others with stripes where the stripe can enhance a quilt design - I really don't prefer the gold laced shiny prints and seems like much of the striped fabrics have it

    ReplyDelete
  18. I love wildlife prints, deer, fox, raccoons, birds are my favorite, butterflies, how about ground hogs :) Let me say I could never get enough Christmas prints, but especially like the vintage look. Also how about Vintage kitchen..woot woot.

    ReplyDelete
  19. I love teeny flowers, polka dots, and novelty fabrics. I am not keen on loud graphic patterns in clashing colours. Thanks for the chance!!

    ReplyDelete
  20. Would love to see more Vintage styles. Also similar to barkcloth prints. Make it vintage, make me happy. :)

    ReplyDelete
  21. I live a variety of prints but prefer them on the small to medium size. Florals, geo's, dots, graphics, stripes, text.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I'd like to see birds. I love geometrics, dots and prints that can act as solids.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Love all things yellow, orange, and red except large polka dots. Good rust shades, browns, and tans are also helpful.

    Do not like any plaids at all.

    I also like deep greens and blues, though I have no personal use for them.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I say stripes and dots. You never have enough of either.

    ReplyDelete
  25. I cannot get enough dots...big dots, small dots, whatever!

    ReplyDelete
  26. I love flowers. I also love polka dots and stripes. I think they all go together. Flowers are really starting to come back in I think. I love this print to. There is no right or wrong fabric always a design for each fabric,

    ReplyDelete
  27. I love stripes--especially for sashings,inner borders and binding--so fun!!

    ReplyDelete
  28. Linda Lum DeBono made a pattern for a babushka doll ornament. I'd like to see her make fabric from this pattern with different babushka dolls all over it and neutrals to go with it.

    Also, I am really into textures lately, so I'd like to see more textures.

    ReplyDelete
  29. I would love to see more kitchen type prints. I also would love more snowmen prints for Christmas/winter

    ReplyDelete
  30. I would like to see more graphic or geometric prints . I don't see fabric that I would say I would want to see less of.
    I like kids novelty prints and for Christmas fabric more traditional colors.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Textures that can be used for fur, geometrics,and non-directional graphics please.

    ReplyDelete
  32. I am currently in the "Modern" quilt stage, so I love the textures, graphics, etc., but most importantly, I love bright colors - if florals are a must, let them be graphic and saturated

    ReplyDelete
  33. I love geometric and text prints!

    ReplyDelete
  34. I like dots, small florals and strips. Not loving chevrons.

    ReplyDelete
  35. I love small prints, reflective of years gone by, with lots of blacks, blues, reds, and creams.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Should the pattern by paisley I am in love! Floral fabric always catches my eye and I am beyond fond of novelty prints with cats or owls.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I'd like to see more small whimsical novelty prints with a light background, nothing directional tho. Fabric with writing on it in English,children dressed in native clothing, chickens, sewing notions, computers/computer parts/computer verbage for the computer geeks in our lives. :)

    ReplyDelete
  38. I love this collection. I adore floral prints and coordinates. There are times, though, for novelty and others. I tend not to use stripes often, unless I know they will work with the design, or use them in binding. Otherwise, they make me dizzy. Tired of owls, but I know others who adore them. I'm just glad there is a variety to please everyone.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I love the sewing theme prints that you are featuring today! I also like texts, fairies, birds, flowers, and leaves. I have less interest in abstract graphics and holiday prints. Thanks for the fun!

    ReplyDelete
  40. More nature/bird prints in a smaller scale.. and I always need dots and stripes! Less of the non-traditional Christmas and holiday prints. ~they are too trendy. Thanks for the fun!

    ReplyDelete
  41. I am always on the lookout for great Christmas fabrics but there was not a lot of selection this past year.

    ReplyDelete
  42. I love fabrics with text on them...like letters, sayings/quotes or just like script letters and sewing theme fabric. Also love red white and black on quilts. crystalbluern at onlineok dot com

    ReplyDelete
  43. I'm very new but I started out loving the bright whimsical fabric in bright colors of the rainbow. Prints or solids are great, but prints definitely are best. Now I seem to be crushing on soft flowers in light pinks and blues. I tend to steer clear of depressing fabric that is too dark or not a lot of color. The black white and red combo is electric and I love the dressforms! I do have to say that what I call depressing in fabric colors, I've seen successfully used in some beautiful samplers, and I may even make one! Thanks

  44. I like novelty fabrics about sewing and very shabby chic fabrics. Not keen on geometric or chevrons.

    ReplyDelete
  45. I love 30s repros and soft pastel florals. I am not a big fan of the novelty prints, such as mustaches, muscle cars, safari animals etc.

    Thanks for asking! It's nice to share!

  47. I love floral prints-big and small. Leaf prints also catch my eye. Graphic prints, stripes and plaids, too. I am getting tired of all the cutesy collections. I know we need designs for children, but sometimes I feel overwhelmed.

    ReplyDelete
  49. I love it all! That is why I have sooooo much
    fabric! Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  50. I love dots (small white or cream on a colored background so it can be used as a companion to the focal prints), I love birds, and light colored textured prints that can be used as backgrounds. Bias stripes are great too, and hard to find. Also, I've been looking for a pinball machine print to make a shirt for my hubby, but can't find it anywhere!! It maybe could be included in a line that had all kinds of male items (cars, trains, pinball machines, antique toys or something along those lines.) Thanks for listening!!! Hugs, H in Healdsburg

    ReplyDelete
  51. Graphic, geometric prints, textures and text of all sorts. There are a zillion flower, 30s repro, Civil War and novelty prints and I am bored with them. These questions have been fun - thanks for asking!

  83. I like brights, dots and stripes. I've had a hard time finding whites/creams for background fabric that have the design woven in the fabric, not stamped on top. I like to applique and it is hard to sew thru fabric with a heavy design stamped on it. Thanks for the giveaway!

  107. Flowers usually grab my interest right up front but I do like geometric shapes especially when the color palette is limited. Tone on Tone prints in text are also neat.

    ReplyDelete
  108. I'm hooked on flowers! All kinds, but I like softer colors the most. I've never been a personal fan of geometrics which is maybe one of the reasons I'm not as fond of modern quilts. Being unique is what makes the world so interesting!

    ReplyDelete
