OCTOBER...IS NEAR.....

Here are the fabrics that are included in a kit in my ETSY shop..The fabrics are coordinated with the beautiful Breast Cancer Awareness fabrics that my Sewing Sister Jen sent me from Hawaii. All shades of pink and a sprinkle of yellow.There are 40 pieces and the backing fabric in each kit.  All proceeds from these kits will go directly to a friend who has cancer.



Here, you can see the great Quilt shop quality backing fabric.  I have also included a FREE Tumbler Table Runner pattern....I only have three of these kits offered....With 40 large die cut tumblers in each kit, you'll have plenty for a table runner or placemats..or maybe a tote and coasters....
And...all pieces were cut on my AccuQuilt Studio with the large tumbler die....
I'm off to the "Sewing Clubhouse" right now to cut more fabric.

JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE BELLS......WHAT THE HECK ???

Well, I thought I'd get you in the Holiday mood....then maybe you'd go to ETSY.COM and find my shop  http://www.etsy.com/shop/FABRICFROG

I listed kits for the tumbler table runner today. I am pleased with how my printed pattern turned out.

 Yesterday, I found my shelf of Halloween fabrics and I thought I'd make up some kits from that.  What do you think?  Table runners, place mats ??

FALL IS IN THE AIR !!!

The next thing you know, I'll be cooking guwumpkies !!!

Another GO contest....closes today.....Aug. 27th...

http://www.freckledwhimsy.com/
This is the blog site of another Gal giving away a GO cutter.  I entered it...but as I told my sewing sisters in QCG (QUILTERS CORNER GROUP..)  I never win anything......Wouldn't it be funny if I won more than one GO cutter?  I would have to have a contest of my own...(giggles)...
Really...I wouldn't mind having a GO, just to tote along with me whan I babysit my Grands....I could cut my scrap heap into squares, tumblers, and Sun Bonnet Sues..... Why don't you go visit the ACCUCUT site and check out their fabric cutters.....??
  This little raggy quilt was cut with the 8 1/2" raggy die and embelished with raggy hearts.  It's a favorite of my Grandaughters Alex Ann and Elizabeth.  Eazy-peazy !!!

FALL FABRIC TUMBLER TABLE RUNNER....Using my Studio cutter, and the large tumbler block, I cut 24 quilt shop quality fabrics into stacks and stacks of pieces.  I used 24 pieces to make this table runner. The finished piece measures about 36" X 21".  It went together "Lickety-Split"  I did set up a 1/4" seam guide.  The die cuts the corners off...so you just match up the pieces...and GO.
I cut do many tumblers that I decided to make some kits, and offer them in my ETSY shop tomorrow...
The back of the table runner is just as much fun as the front...

I used a quilt shop quality fabric, right off the bolt.  It is kind of vintage looking...love, love. love those dancing pumpking guys.
Here is a stack of die cut TUMBLER PIECES.  I used 24 different good quality fabrics, adding 6 extra pieces to this kit.

I really love the size of this die cut...and love the fact that the corners are already cut off.

Do you have 24 different fall fabrics in your fabric stash?  If not....perhaps you would like to buy this kit...30 tumbler pieces and vintage looking backing fabric from my etsy store...FABRICFROG...I'll put a link in...to make it easy for you.
