    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!

  4. Janice says

    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! 🙂

  7. Rebecca F. says

    I really like the Premier Prints Outdoor Twirly Yellow. Of course, it’s hard to narrow it down to just one.

  13. Marlene says

    I would buy material for making diapers for my new grandchild, and oilcloth for making lunch bags as gifts for Christmas.

  18. Erika W. says

    I love the Premier Prints Gotcha Storm Twill fabric and the Premier Prints Zig Zag Blue Twill fabric! Would love to make pillows withthem!

  29. Kathleen says

    Oh my, I just visited that Online store and can I just say I love all the quilting cottons with birds on them?!

  41. Erika says

    I think it was called Braemore Sakura White Tea! Sooo pretty!

    I also saw some toile and I just love toile!

  44. Andrea says

    I like the Fabricut Trend 02096 Terra Cotta Fabric. There are SO many pretty choices! Thanks for the giveaway.

  46. Rose Swiokla says

    I really love Kim Martin’s One Frosty Christmas Ornaments in red, and would love to make something special for my granddaughter :0)

  47. Janel V says

    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.

  53. Pat Upton says

    I have at least 2 fabrics I love: Joel Dewberry Bloom Lilac and HGTV’S color study berry. That is for starters!

  56. Colleen says

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

  60. Silvia says

    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!

  64. Tabbi says

    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.

  71. Terri C says

    Love the Waverly Sweet Pastimes Crimson, it would make perfect pillows and curtains for a guest room.

  73. Jacklynn Grimm says

    I really like anything Amy Butler, the Water Bouquet Midnight Fabric is very pretty! Thanks for the give away!

  75. Sandy says

    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.”

    The new Premier Prints Dandelion White/Black has probably got to by my newest, current favorite fabric 😛
    LOVE anything with dandelions <3

  94. Samantha says

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

  99. Sarah R says

    I really like Michael Miller’s Dumb Dot and his Clown Stripe prints and also Robert Kaufman’s Kona Cotton Broadcloth solids.

  100. Amy says

    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.

  101. Sonya M. Capps says

    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.

  104. Jami Cobb says

    Talk about kid in a candy store! LOL I’m drooling over Covington Bosporus Antique Red Fabric and the Covington Over the Moon White both!!!

  105. Lynne Bohman says

    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.

  106. Jessica Chavis says

    I adore the Waverly parchment paper fabric. I have been searching for the right project to buy this for

  108. Clare G. says

    My favorite fabric is Waverly Lovely Lattice Violet! Purple is the color of royalty and this weave is beautiful.

  109. Kelly S. says

    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!

  110. Heather says

    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!!

  111. VickiT says

    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.

  112. Shawn Benson says

    I would love to learn to sew curves (necklines, sleeves, etc) better or even a great tutorial on the best way to sew on bias tape!

  116. Renee says

    I seem to be agreeing with everyone… but clothes, please. Specifically for me, shirts, and how to put sleeves on them!

  120. Kristen says

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

  121. Randi says

    I would like to learn how to quilt properly. If never actually tried it wholeheartedly, so maybe I just need practice.

  129. Amy says

    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! 🙂

  130. Leslie says

    I am going to attempt to make a pair of pants with a pattern. I would like to learn to make clothes.

  131. TONYA says

    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! !

  132. Nannette Elizabeth Nielsen says

    You have inspired me to sew more! If you are ever in Cache Valley, come say hi 🙂

  138. Colleen Garner says

    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)

  142. Arika says

    I want to learn to sew a dress for my peanut…I have the tutorials and even a real pattern…now to get brave

  152. Jenn says

    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!

  159. KERRY says

    next on my sewing docket is to make a cover for my baby bjorn carrier.
    this was a wonderful way to have people transverse your blog. i thoroughly enjoyed myself! thanks for the opportunity.

  161. Tammy says

    I want to make those fabric boxes, they would be a great addition to my craft room that I am trying to make over but never seems to find the time to do it.

  162. Emily says

    The next thing that I would like to learn to sew is some pj pants for myself (using your tutorial of course!) 🙂

  168. Kellie says

    There are sooooo many things I want to learn! That said, I would like to know how to border a quilt the most….

  169. Alisha Roberts says

    I really want to make the little baby shoes that you have on this site. They are adorable!! 🙂

  170. Sophie says

    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!

  172. Nina says

    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.

  180. Diane says

    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) 🙂

  186. Brenda Weikel says

    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.

  188. Robin says

    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.

  189. Tiffany Hoskinson says

    i think i just need to *man up* and sew in a zipper- you have plenty of great projects for me to try!

  192. Chelle Chapman says

    I SEW want to make a quilt next. I can sew clothes, bags, pillows & such but have never made a quilt. I am SEW excited to begin!!

  196. Meagan Zefirov says

    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.

  197. Gail says

    I want to improve at sewing clothes, and I really want to learn to alter clothes for a better fit, or just a remake.

  199. Hilary says

    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!

  203. Cheryl says

    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!

  215. Shelley says

    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!

  223. Lydia Che Lee says

    Love making pillows! Easy and fun! Plus adding little touches here and there for added flare!

  225. Erica Ralston says

    I would love to learn to sew curtains. I love the pattern here. I look forward to taking on the challenge

  236. Sarah says

    My next project will be pajama pants for the kiddos….and maybe matching pillowcases. And then a tote bag for me!

  237. Kristen says

    I would like to learn how to sew different kinds of fabrics (like stretch knits and other apparel fabrics).

  250. loretta says

    Pillows, Pillows, Pillows! Love all the pillows in this blog post. I love sewing practical items as gifts and for my own home.

  251. Hinahon says

    The ninjago one makes me want to make a creeper one (from Minecraft). I wonder why I didn’t have that idea before 😮

  256. Colleen says

    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. 🙂
