The good news is though that it finally arrived this week (amazing it only took 4 days once I followed it up) so I can join up with Sunday Stash which is being hosted this week by Allison at Dreaming in Patchwork.
I should say this is probably not a group of fabrics I would have chosen for myself but I have to say there are some in there I quite like.
I love the camera fabric and the large spots which come in several different colours.
I'm really not a 'low volume' kind of girl so its not something I'm drawn to but I also won some fabric recently on another BOM and it too is low volume so I think the quilting world is trying to tell me something!
I'll have to think for a while on what I'm going to use this layer cake for. I haven't used one before and I was surprised at how much fabric you get. I'm thinking that if I throw some grey and maybe orange solids into the mix it might just speak to me!
Off to link up!
I love that grey sewing print on the far right. What is it?
ReplyDeleteI am using a layer cake to do the square on my Girls day out quilt, so maybe look for something with stitchery panels and if there are any uglies in there, they are spread out in little bits. Just an idea :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on winning! You should check out the Moda Bake Shop website because they have tons of free patterns using their precuts. You can search by precut under the Bakery tab :)
ReplyDeleteNeat! You were lucky. Congrats! All of the fabrics looks great.
ReplyDeleteThe more I see low volume quilts the more I am drawn to them... so I hope your new fabrics do the same for you! Since they are free it's a great opportunity to just play around and find out.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your win! I love the twenty three camera and tickets prints! I couldn't afford an FQ stack so only got a charm pack in the hope it would quench my thirst! I have no idea what to use mine for either! :-)
ReplyDeleteThe cameras were my fave part of this range as well!
ReplyDeleteLove Layer Cakes, they do provide a lot of fabric. I am in a Bee and this month the girl asked us to use low volume prints, ugh, I don't have any so I am coming up with alternatives, I'm more of a bright color kind of girl. So you never now when you will need those low volume stuff.
ReplyDeleteYou've won two really cool lots of fabric!! The camera fabric is particularly fun. I love all the fabrics in the second photo. I bet they come in handy for the right project at the right time.
ReplyDeleteBust open that layer cake girl!
ReplyDeleteI adore the 23 fabric! {I probably won't be stashing any of it, so I love the chance to admire it on other people's blogs :) } I have never bought a layercake for myself because I didn't think you got enough of each fabric to make it worthwhile, but I recently cut into one that I won and was pleasantly surprised.
