    I looked through the fabrics listed under Reds, and I LOVE the P. Kaufmann Summer Breeze Crimson. I could easy redecorate a room just so I could use this fabric!

    I was obviously drooling over so much of that store, but the Amy Butler Twilight Peony Saffron Fabric really stood out to me as one of the perfect fall patterns. It’s still so bright and saturated, but has so many beautiful fall colors!

    Thank you for hosting this giveaway! :)

    Yay, another fun place to shop for fabric! I just love the HGTV line and the Jigsaw Malachite was my favorite, made me think of my living room back when I was a kid.

    Love the Braemore Ankara Scarlet upholstery fabric! I have a chair to re-cover, and this fabric is definitely on my short list.

    I honestly can’t pick just one fav, but the Richloom Twizzler Crayola Fabric is gorgeous!

    Loving all the pillows in this post, I think I need to make some!

    I’m getting the natural burlap for some curtains to go in my parents old farmhouse. I was thinking of stenciling some design on it too. So far in my head they look great, lol. We will see the how I feel when I get them done.

    Do not make crib bumpers for cribs.
    According to Safe Sleep for Your Baby: Reduce the Risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and Other Sleep-Related Causes of Infant Death
    “Keep soft objects, toys, and loose bedding out of your baby’s sleep area to reduce the risk of SIDS and other sleep-related causes of infant death. Don’t use pillows, blankets, quilts, sheepskins, or crib bumpers anywhere in your baby’s sleep area. Evidence does not support using crib bumpers to prevent injury. In fact, crib bumpers can cause serious injuries and even death. Keeping them out of baby’s sleep area is the best way to avoid these dangers.”

    I love the quilting section for fabric. There are tons of coordinating patterns that make it easy to start planning out a basic quilt.

    I’m not usually a big yellow person, but the Amy Butler Martini Mustard jumped out at me – I’d love to do pillows with this.

    The Cocoa Burlap is just fabulous! a million and one things come to mind for Fall Crafts. One example is frayed edge place mats with a large initial monogram stenciled in the center or a small one in the corner.

    There are so many wonderful fabrics to choose from. My favorite right now is Fabricut Trend 02116 Lagoon Fabric. It will look great in my family room.

    I could spend hours browsing fabric on that site, but Richloom Esme River Fabric caught my eye because I have pillows from Kohl’s in that fabric and I didn’t know it was available for purchase! I’d love to make curtains to match for my living room!

    I know this is boring, but I need some solids really bad, so if I could, I would purchase a whole lot of Kona! Thanks for the giveaway!!

    I found one fabric that I really love, but sadly, at almost $45/yd I can’t afford that one. Sad too as it is very pretty. Anyone that can afford that price, look for Fabricut Trend 02096 Terra Cotta Fabric. It’s gorgeous fabric.

    I really love the cute birds on this fabric however. They are super cute on Michael Miller Tweetie Pie Aqua Fabric.

    Next on my list is curtains. Huge ones that will substitute for closet doors. Should be able to figure that out. (I hope.)

    I want to learn to sew clothes… I’m new to sewing and the ideas of it makes me nervous! I looked at a pattern and it’s instructions and about had a heart attack! Guess I need to learn the terminology first! :)

    I am so glad this is post of the scavenger hunt! My mom is wanting me to make her a bed skirt and I never would have thought about looking on here! I need to explore your blog more! It’s like a treasure hunt! !

    I would love to learn how to take a shirt and make a pattern from it, I see a lot of tutorials for them but when I try to do it the front of the shirt does not come out right because of the neck line being lower in the front than in the back (if that makes any sense)

    The pin tucked duvet and pillow look majorly challenging! I want to try my hand at those someday. Not sure when though! I also would like to try the rouched pillow. So cute!

    I would like to learn to sew a fabric bag that my son can get his tiny fingers around… In no slight attempt at teaching him to put toys in it. A girl can dream!

    I’ll be working on February Sew Crazy Challenge. I chose pipping. So there’s that. I also want to prefect flying geese to make a beautiful quilt and of course move on to knits to make clothes, that would be awesome.

    Leggings. . . Can’t wait to make some for the grand princesses. If it works, then I’ll try to make myself some (if I can find a cute Long tunic to go over them) :)

    I want to learn how to sew tote bags next. I have made very simple ones for a school kit program, but I would like to learn how to make more sophisticated bags.

    I’d love to sew some sort of garment, whether it’s a skirt, blouse, or dress. I’ve never made any clothing. I’m still working on the maxi skirt. Since trying to make it, I learned that I needed a different type of needle for knits, and possibly a walking foot.

    I really want to try out your tutorial for fabric storage boxes. I am very much intimidated by trim details so it will be a nice challenge.

    Eeek! I don’t know! I never know what I want to learn next til I see it. I never thought I would be making lot holders but I love it! Everyone I know now has one! Can’t wait til the next challenge or the next inspiration hits!

    I def am wanting to start making pillows! I am a little unsure of sizes and disappearing zippers but I am going to have to use your links and try my hand at it!

    The next thing I want to learn to sew is something I have seen but have no idea what it is called. I have seen some super cute things where you sew strips of fabric, straight or ruffled, in lines or designs onto a base fabric. I got some really cute strips of fabric on rolls from my grandma’s old stash and thought they’d make cute table runners or pillows. I’ll either just play with it and figure out the technique (I’m sure it isn’t too complicated) or see if I can find a tutorial online somewhere. Your tutorials are the best, so if you know what I’m describing, that would be awesome!

    It’s such a big thing, but I’d love to learn how to re-upholster furniture. I feel like that’s a skill that could come in handy–especially on the ugly chair that’s sitting in a corner of my bedroom. :)
