I'm a NON-blogger, but I love to read those of others, and yours is at the top of my list... as for what I'd buy, this would be such a treat!... I'd buy a specialty ruler or two, some solids or read-like-solids, a new collection and then set about making a lovely quilt for a charity group I'm affiliated with... I get the enjoyment of creating, someone gets the enjoyment of using it, and the charity benefits... a good thing all around!

EDCGirl70 said...

Blogger-Definitely some blender type fabrics, some layer cakes, and of course a couple of new patterns

Blogger. I would buy so much fabric and make so many things! And show off every creation on my blog, with attribution!

Booklogged said...

I am a book blogger but not a quilt blogger (yet!) Just picked up quilting 4 months ago after many, many years.

I think I'd get about 5 yds of Kansas Troubles Favorites Navy Vine for a quilt pattern my husband that has stepping stone and star blocks. I really love your Carnival Quilt Pattern and it would be so cute made up with some Dill Dally fabric.

Sandi P said...

I am not a blogger, but would love to buy some coordinated fabrics and maybe some patterns with my certificate. I have a new house and need lots of fun new things to decorate it with.

Shannon said...

Non-blogger, but big blog fan! FQS has soooo many things I want, but top of my list today is the new Animal Party collection to make more baby quilts for my friends . . . and probably more Central Park, because I just can't get enough of that fabric :)

Susan said...

I am a non-blogger, although I would love to be a blogger, I don't have the talent that I see in so many of the blogs out there. What would I buy? I would buy things to make a quilt for my mother who is in a nursing home. She loves looking through my fabrics & adores anything blue!

Donna said...

Lynn W. said...

Non blogger. I make a lot of charity quilts and Quilts of Valor so I would be choosing fabrics for those destinations. Thanks for offering this contest.

Tiffany Sherman said...

Blogger...
That said, I am not very consistent, but I try:)
Love the Fast Forward pattern!
Fabric Trends magazine would be on the list.
Sugar and Spice Charm pack- to make the Fast Forward quilt.
I'd love to get the Modern Basics book.
Michael Miller's Magnolia Lane collection would be awesome as well!

What fun to dream! Thanks so much:)

Shannon said...

I am non-blogger who has fallen madly in love with your Fast Forward pattern. It would be the first item in my cart along with the ruler...and a jelly roll or 2..and a few yards of solids...and.......

gale said...

I'm a blogger! I think I'd buy a bunch of Central Park from Moda. I've been eyeballing that for a while.

Lori said...

Non-Blogger
I would definitely buy yards of blender fabric. Or maybe a few jelly rolls. Or maybe a civil war collection. Well, definitely fabric.

Molly said...

Blogger. I'm still relatively new to quilting so I could really use some great fabric to inspire me and build up my stash. I'd love to get some fat quarter bundles and would spend hours perusing. I want to make some quilts for my sons so I'd be looking for manly, yet not gimmicky prints. Joel Dewberry maybe .... This would be awesome!!

Annie said...

I am a blogger and I would build up my solids stash and buy as many pretty fat quarters as the money would allow!

Anonymous said...

Non Blogger here. But, I love fabrics, patterns, and lots of tools. I guess that's what I'll get with my gift certificate. Sure hope I win!

Lauren said...

Your patterns are awesome. If I won I would purchase fabric (beginning quilter so my fabric stock is a little on the low side) and I am definitely interested on making a few of your quilts!
Thanks!
Lauren

Hi Julie - I am a blogger. I would love to amass a stash of solids and that's what I'd buy if I won this giveaway. I'm dreaming of a gorgeous quilt I saw recently that really makes me itch to make a quilt with solids but I have very few in my stash.
Thanks for offering this giveaway!

michelle said...

Non-blogger! I would spend it on a new ruler(mine is overworked!) and the rest on pre-cut fabric,I love to work with layercakes and jelly rolls!

Unknown said...

I would buy a lot of solids, and then I would just pick whatever I like - what a joy :o))

Cheryl said...

nonblogger here. I would love to be able to get your unwind pattern and some kona cotton. I have just started using solids and I like the look

cakegirl said...

Part time blogger, but a quilt made with some new fabric would be a great topic. I want to make a quilt for my knitting friend who is always surprising me with fabulous items so the fabric would have to be bold, colorful and funky.

Midlife Mom said...

I am a blogger. I would love to get a some jelly rolls as that is my new passion! I know I am late in jumping on this wagon but I am making up for it! Great give away!

Sarah said...

Non Blogger here!
I would love to win, I would make all the soft furnishings we need for our little flat :)
Hugs
Sarah

Stitches said...

I'm a blogger..I would buy some of the bright fabrics and make a fun quilt. I have very few brights and I need to get our of my box and start using some of them.

Jen B said...

I'd get the Oliver + S book, some purse patterns, a quilt pattern or two ;-) and as much fabric as I could!

Melissa said...

I'm a blogger and I'd pick up some Sherbet Pips and Central park yardage (love the brick prints in every color) then fill in with some Kona solids. I see there's still some Bliss left so I would probably choose a little of that too. FQS has soooo much to choose from!

Marielle said...

Blogger
I would like to buy your fast forward pattern, I love it because it it can be made with very girly colours but also with big boy colours.
The ruler to go with it and of course a jelly roll (or 2...)

GigiQuilts said...

I am a blogger and I would buy fabric to make my new grandchild bumper pads, sheets, and a small quilt! I cant wait to meet her!!

Becca said...

I'm waiting for Sandi Henderson's Secret Garden line but I love Gypsy Bandanna as well! My blog is private.

texheks said...

Non-blogger... I would get some solids, I'm sure about that... I think... and I like Sherbert Pips, but also love some Kaffe Fassett... I would be spending a lot of time picking the perfect pile of fabrics! Would love to win this.

Dianne said...

Non-blogger here ... I would get fabric, fabric and more fabric! First, I'd build up my stash of solids ... after that, anything goes! Thanks for the GREAT giveaway!!

Nora said...

I'd have to wait to spend some of the gift certificate, waiting for the storyboek fabric to come out .. so sweet and is destined for a friend's son's bed. I'd also get some really fun charm packs in big girl patterns (I've been making too many baby quilts!)

Paula Lemos said...

I'm a non-blogger and I would spend the GC in Sherbet Pips Jelly Rolls and yardage to make a quilt. I would also choose yardage of My Happy Nursery to make baby quilts.
Thanks for the chance!

Unknown said...

Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. I got here just in time :)

I am a blogger. I am a quilter. I have no patterns, but I really would like to win a gift certificate so that I could afford one and some yardage :)

Thanks for the opportunity to enter.

MoeWest said...

Wow Julie! This is a great giveaway. I would spend most of it on fabric, maybe from the new lines coming out soon. I'd like to get a Little Twister ruler and I haven't seen it locally yet. Thanks for the chance to win. I'm not a blogger.

Blue said...

My Goodness! Such a lovely Give-away! ;P I'm a non-blogger. My wish list would be mainy Westminster fabrics plus fabrics to make doll clothes. In stitches, Blue

objectproject said...

What a fabulous giveaway! I would purchase lots of fabric to create some summer clothes. Maybe some patterns, but I'd like to make some original designs as well. Thanks so much!

Unknown said...

NON-BLOGGER at the moment.

I would head into the rulers section and invest in angle rulers, , a quick sidestep for Olfa Blades before diving headlong into yummy delicious fabric. Probably heading to Parisville and Central Park and Swoon along with several Jaybird patterns

dragonfly said...

Blogger here although my most recent blog just started. If I were to win, I would use most of the gift certificate on fabric, there are some patterns to that beckon, and perhaps some specialty rulers. I only recently got back to quilting after a long absence do to caring for sick family members. So I have some catching up to do in the stash department.

Anonymous said...

i'm a blogger. i would buy lots of fabrics. yep $100 worth of fabric.

manybooks said...

Non=blogger...
Well, I would have such trouble picking! But I would probably start with a Fat 8th bundle of Fresh Flowers. I also need some Sunkissed yardage to back a quilt I just finished, and I want some solid yardage for a new Quilt-Along.

jenni said...

I am a blogger.

I love FQS (go Texas quilt shops!)

If I won I'd go wild buying fabric for a new quilt for my bedroom.

The Mid Life Guru said...

I am a new blogger inspiring women to try new things in a different way. I just featured how I have gotten back the sewing bug after 12 years by sewing a quilt. $100 would go a long way keeping me following my passion of sewing for others.

Amy said...

Non-blogger, but definitely willing to send pics!!
I have a baby project in mind and perhaps a quilt for ME!

littlebluebirdie said...

Blogger -

I'd buy plenty of fabric! Some sherbet pip scarf print for sure! Definitely would stash up a bit of this and that with $100...

Jeanne Gwin said...

I am a Blogger and I would totally go for your patterns first (not sucking up, I really want them) and then it would be "shades of lavender" for me, cottons for quilt, cotton for bed-skirt, cotton for duvet, cotton for bed-cover, cotton for pillows, cotton for curtains, ribbons and buttons and rickrack and bows and and and... all in Luscious Delicious Fabulous Shades of Lavender. ?Why? you ask, because I am making this "ALL ABOUT ME" for a change Man, that felt good

Mom Squad said...

I would buy more Sunkissed by Sweetwater. I cannot get enough of this fabric!

Sudi-Laura said...

Blogger: I would get the FQ pack of Sherbert Pips, and some kona solids to match. That would spend the money quickly:-)

Kell said...

I'm a non-blogger. Some Sunkissed for the back of a quilt. Bella & Kona solids, Swiss Chocolate-Espresso FQB and your Carnival, Unwind & Firecracker patterns.

But I could change my mind! Lol

Thanks for the giveway.

Allison said...

I am a blogger. I would buy the Wee Wonderful Dolls book and some fabric, either kona cottons or fig tree prints, maybe some of each :)

Jamie said...

Not a blogger - Oh what would I buy. . .I've designed a couple of quilts using jelly rolls and fat quarters that I'd like to make in other fabric lines. I am very interested in Hushabye and Scarborough Fair lines.

Cheri C. said...

Non-blogger writer... Blogger reader(someone has to for all those that blog).

I'm in love with Sunkissed right now and Amanda's new line with Riley Blake. So, I'm all about those.... and, whew... only an hour left... glad I made it!!

Becky S. said...

I guess I'm considered a NON-BLOGGER; I do technically have a blog but I wrote about 4 entries over the course of 5 years, haven't updated since probably last summer, and don't have any followers!

I'd probably stock up on some kona solids, get a jelly roll or two do do a postage stamp quilt, and/or get some fabric for two baby boy quilts I have to make (one boy is here and the other is due in July!).

Anonymous said...

Blogger - What I would buy is a quilt kit I have had my eye on Bon Bons. I love it.

mascanlon said...

Yes! We've been gone for four days but I'm just sneaking in under the wire. I have been waiting for Daisies and Dots and "someones" new patterns!

Unknown said...

I'm a blogger and would love any of the moda fabrics. lol My hubby would say I don't need any since he thinks my stash has too much to begin with :)

Nancy Sue said...

A non-blogger I am now, but would love to hopefully jump in the waters sometime. What a great idea! I'd love to make something to share! This is actually a harder question than it first seems. So much goodness at Fat Quarter shop! I'd start with some Mr. FixIt by Dan Morris. Father's Day is a coupla months away, and I could make my dad a quilt with a tool theme. Then I'd move onto Muslin Mates and try my hand at a journal quilt. The fabrics seem light enough to have writing on top. Thanks for organizing it and helping us non-bloggers get bitten by the blogbug!
