A Winner and a Finish

Winner!

I wish you all could have won!! But alas...

Congratulations, Teje! Citrine will be coming your way!!

I have sent you an email and can't wait to hear from you!! :)

Finish!!!

I recently completed Terrie's block for the Quilting Journey Round Robin Bee over on Flickr. And today I got the pictures taken. Finally.

She wanted a star block based on a memory from our childhood. One of my grandmothers loved owls. She had a macrame owl hanging under her clock in her kitchen. And thinking of that brings back a flood of other wonderful memories from my childhood. Thank you, Terrie!

Here are all her blocks together.

Next up - two more bee blocks and my sweet bird quilt. What are you working on??



Hugs!

Fabric Rocks!

It is what captured my attention and made me dive head-long into quilting. This wonderful modern fabric is the reason I sew and therefore, the reason I began "My Full Color Life". I can't believe the fun I have had with this little blog. Now, it is definitely time to celebrate with you!!

So...I wanted to gift one of my followers with 5 half yard cuts of gorgeous, scrumptious eye-candy fabric. But which fabric??? I asked Lindsay over at Hawthorne Threads what was 'hot' right now. She is super helpful and sent me these pics. Aren't they gorgeous???

All you have to do is decide which collection you like best, leave me a comment telling me why, and be one of my followers!! Hey! I narrowed it down to five choices, you gotta do the rest yourself!

The giveaway will be open until next Thursday morning at 6:00 am, CST. And if you would like to tell me why you chose it or how you think you'd like to use it, I'd love to hear. But you don't have to. I just want to say, thanks for caring enough to click 'follow'.
