Oh Catherine, how can I tell you which fabric range is a favourite at present, it changes as soon as I see something else. My favourite on line store is a shop in Wales www.cross_patch.uk (or something like that). I am of course a follower of yours. Thanks for the opportunity to enter your giveaway.

Hi! The fabric squares look beautiful. I haven't been sewing much lately, so I don't have any favorite fabrics or shops off the top of my head, but I like a good linen. ~Kelly, wyndsung@gmail.com

Gaye said...

Hi Catherine, your blog great. It is my first visit.
Batiks and hand dyes are my weakness, but I like fabric !
The only place that I have bought fabric online is Keepsake Quilting and Hamels Fabrics in Chillawack BC. Thank you for offering up such a nice giveaway

I just love batiks - thanks for the great giveaway! At the moment I am always inspired by Anna Maria Horner's fabrics - someday I would like to try something with her folksy flannels! As for favourite online store, it has to be Sew, Mama, Sew.

Maroesja said...

since I only started sewing a few months ago, I don't have a favorite shop and/or fabric line yet. But I do love your wonderful batiks, thank you for the chance to win these :)

Tawny said...

Well I'm going to be honest and tell you that I don't follow fabric collections or designer names. I just pick out what I like - mostly from the clearance section! Therefore, I also don't have an online go-to for fabric either :( Hey, at least I'm being honest right? :) Terrific giveaway! I love batik!

Unknown said...

What an awesome giveaway! I think my fav fabric at the moment is Nicey Jane, but it changes on a near daily basis! I haven't got a fav shop - I'm in the UK and haven't found a decent one yet :( But I'll keep trying!!

Allison said...

I love the fabric Timber, and anything from Amy Schimler. (Such cute critters!!) Thanks for the chance to win the batiks--they're so pretty!

CC said...

Oh your giveaway is both gorgeous and generous. Plus it's so fabulous of you to be willing to ship internationally. I quite like a lot of fabric lines out there that have cupcakes on them, it seems most of the major manufacturers have jumped on the cupcake bandwagon. I quite like shopping from Equilter.com because my order is always perfectly correct and they donate 2% of my pre-tax total to a charity of my choice from their list. I'm in the US.

OH, batiks! I am smitten!!! What a great giveaway!

My fave fabric collection? That's such a hard one -- changes from day to day! I really like so much of what Alexander Henry puts out, so that'll be it for today.

And my fave shop? I actually have only bought fabric online twice -- I really prefer touching and feeling the fabric. With that said, I did just get some fabric from Honfleur Home -- they had a couple pieces I've been looking for. I'm hoping the package is in the mail today!

Melissa ;-) said...

I am so new to designer fabrics I don't have a favorite, yet!! I love a lot of Moda, but I love so much else, too! Thanks for the chance!

I love the new Fairy Tale line that is out. But mostly I buy fabrics at JoAnns, it's a shame, I know. Online - I buy stuff at esty. Thanks for the fab giveaway!

Carrie said...

I love the batik fabrics! I could make up a name of an online fabric store, but I can't even think of something to put. I've never bought fabric online and although I would like too, I'm usually shopping the clearance shelf at the local fabric store. Thanks!
