Make It Modern March Sponsor

The Fat Quarter Shop is sponsoring an amazing prize for members of the Make It Modern quilting bee on Flickr.  The winner for March is getting a fat quarter bundle of Bonnie and Camille’s newest line for Moda, Happy Go Lucky!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How sweet is this fabric?  And how sweet is the Fat Quarter Shop for being such a generous sponsor?!!?

The Fat Quarter Shop has a seemingly endless array of fabrics, thread, patterns, and a huge sale section that I frequent every chance I get.  I love to stock up on great deals on everyday fabric basics like this one--only $6.30 a yard for Annie’s Farmstand dots on red…

and get a few yards of fabrics that might make perfect backing fabric for a project I’ve got in the works.  Like this…

At $5.38 a yard, these Cabana Blooms Tiles would make an bright and bold statement on the back of a quilt.

What I am waiting with bated breath for is Sarah Watson’s newest line that should be available in stores in early April.  It’s called Indian Summer.

Yes, I am totally psyched about this newest line of fabric and have already very conveniently signed up to be notified when the fabric is available for sale.  The Fat Quarter Shop lets you sign up your email address to be notified as soon as it’s available.  How convenient is that?!!?

The Fat Quarter Shop was the very first online shop I purchased fabric from back when I was in a sock monkey phase and needed lots of Erin Michael’s Funky Monkeys and Monkeyin’ Around fabrics.  I’ll tell you, the Fat Quarter Shop had them all!  I’ve been shopping with them for about 7 years now, and every experience has exceeded my expectations---through the roof! 

The Jolly’s run a very professional, yet fun, fabric store.  And their generosity to bloggers and quilters everywhere is unparalleled.  Thanks, Fat Quarter Shop, for making March a month to remember for one lucky winner!!!

Make It Modern Sponsor Quilt Taffy

Quilt Taffy is a friendly online fabric store run by Corrie and Des out of their home state of Idaho.  When I started sewing a few years ago, it was by sheer luck that I found their store first through eBay, and then later through Etsy. 

I love the custom charm packs in their store.  And they carry the newest collections and trendy designs.

Corrie has always been fast to respond to my requests for custom orders and even helped me purchase a Christmas present from her store and deliver it to my friend, writing a note to go inside the package.  She provides great service and fast shipping, usually the same day I place an order.

The latest fabric to hit their shelves is Denyse Schmidt’s Shelburne Falls.   They’ve also got jelly rolls, layer cakes, and fabric by the yard.  This sushi print from Robert Kaufman would make a cute tote or lunch sack.

If you follow Quilt Taffy’s blog, you can enter a giveaway every Thursday for fabric prizes like charm packs and fat quarter packs. 

One lucky Make It Modern winner will get her choice of charm pack from Quilt Taffy’s Etsy store.  Make sure you’ve mailed your blocks and uploaded your photos to Flickr by midnight on February 28th.  A winner’s name will randomly be drawn on March 1. 

Thanks, Quilt Taffy, for providing such an awesome sweet treat!   What would you pick if you won? 

I’d pick this sweet Little Matryoshka charm pack!
