GiveAway #43 - Olive the Ostrich - Create Your Own Bundle!

Tweet

For this GiveAway I am offering 2 total yds of fabric.  You are going to create your own bundle from any of the 8 measurements below!  How kool is that!  Olive the Ostrich was created by Lauri Wisbrun for Robert Kaufman Fabrics.  This is a really cute collection perfect for any Valentine's Day sewing you may be thinking about.  As you can see, all of the fabrics in this collection are color coordinated to match with each other so there is no guess work for the winner when creating their own bundle.

SO THAT THERE'S NO CONFUSION, I AM THE SPONSOR, NOT HAWTHORNE THREADS.  I'M JUST BUYING THE FABRIC FROM THEM.

Hawthorne Threads is the only online fabric shoppe that I know of that offers 8 different sizes to cut your fabric!  This really makes it easy to get just the right amount you need for many different projects!  They offer:
1/8 yd
1/4 yd
3/8 yd
1/2 yd
5/8 yd
3/4 yd
7/8 yd
Full Yard

 OLIVE THE OSTRICH IN PINK

 LOVE IN PEWTER

 LOVE IN PINK

Just tell me what you would make with your bundle if you won.  Easy Peasy.  Remember that the winner gets to create their own bundle choosing from 8 different length cuts!  (I.E. 2 yds of same fabric, 2 fabrics 1 yd each, 4 fabrics 1/2 yd each, 6 fabrics 1/3 yd each..........etc. etc. etc....MIX & MATCH TO YOUR HEART'S CONTENT TO GET EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANT!)

This GiveAway will run for a work week from (Sun) 12-23 thru (Fri) 12-28 @ midnight EST.  I will use Random.org to choose the winner & will announce the winner on (Sat) 12-29!

Feedback Requested About Future Fabric GiveAways

Tweet

Hey Yall!  Sometimes I sponsor my own GiveAways and have a question for yall.  In the future when I give away fabric, would you rather have a Fat Quarter Bundle OR me list several fabric pictures in a collection (which are already color coordinated for those wondering) and you pick and choose which fabrics you want creating your own bundle equaling a specific amount that I'm offering? (I.E. Let's say I am giving away 2 total yards of fabric.  You can select 2 yds of the same fabric, 1 yd each of 2 different fabrics, (4) different 1/2 yd pieces, etc...............mixing and matching to create your own bundle).  I hope this make sense.

Please chime in and give me some idea of what yall prefer.

I personally would go with creating my own bundle but wanted to see what yall would say.
