Fabulous Friday Giveaway - sponsored by the Intrepid Thread store!


UPDATE: This giveaway is now closed. Thank you for your interest, and stop in again soon!
 Friday crept up on me! But Padsworth and DragonDrop let me know, and so we have a lovely giveaway from our special friend, Julie!


The Intrepid Thread is our go-to online store, with an awesome variety of designer quilting cottons. And we hear from Julie's newsletter that they are looking for space for a real, live, brick and mortar store! How exciting!  Those of you in the San Jose area will have a new quilting hot-spot to visit. (Yes, I am turning green, Padsworth.  No, I don't feel sick.  I am jealous of the peeps who will be able to visit Julie and pat all that fabric in person....Grin)

Want to see some of the lovely things she stocks at the Intrepid Thread? Feast your peepers on these:

Flutter - by the Quilted Fish

Frippery - by Thomas Knauer

Floressence - by Pat Bravo
Ya, I know, I know . . . Flutter, Frippery, and Floressence. What can I say? I love alliteration! 

See what I mean? You can find all of the top designers at the Intrepid Thread, and there are new lines coming in all. the. time.  Seriously, if I could, I would have a standing order for whatever came in each week; Julie has great taste, and then she prices her fabrics so reasonably.  Her bundles are great values, and she has a clearance sale section that is wonderful, too!

If you want bundles, like these, you are in hog heaven. But you are also covered if you want to pick and choose from these lines......fat quarters, pre-cuts, and yardage. It's all there for you to choose from, and then Julie ships so very fast --- all you have to do is figure out how to get it into the house undetected! (Wink)

DragonDrop is jumping up and down, anxious for me to tell you what is up for grabs today!  So, without further ado (big sigh from DragonDrop here) I'll show you!


This lovely bundle of the Cool colorway of Bella, by Amanda Murphy!!  Hoppy Froggies! It sure is pretty!

Would ya like to win it? I know you do!

Just leave a comment here telling me your favorite line from the Intrepid Thread's JUST ARRIVED department! 
For an extra entry, let me know if you follow here, and for yet another entry, tell me if you follow Julie's blog!

Good luck, everyone! Let the commenting begin!
(We'll leave this giveaway open until next Thursday, November 8, and then we'll let Mr. Random pick a winner!)

Love,
