Update: Number 47~ Mary on Lake Pulaski
you win your choice of 1 yard of fabric.
I'm so relieved to know that I'm not the only who dislikes yardwork. I have guilt issues over that because it seems that so many of my friends here LOVE working in the yard and garden. I'm glad I have you. :)
Yards and Yards!!
Also restocked the charm packs!
Lots of pretties to make like this
and this.
In honor of all the yardwork you will be doing this spring....What?
You live in Idaho and it's not spring yet??
You live in Idaho and it's not spring yet??
Well, when it gets there.....there will be plenty to do.

Let's have a YARD of fabric giveaway this week.
Any 100% cotton~44/45" fabric in the store!
Leave a comment telling us about your yardwork.
I personally, do not do the yardwork at our house, thank heavens!
I'm not into dirt under my nails.
Wear gloves?
THEN what would be my excuse?
Random Drawing later tonight!
Oh my. I don't think I could narrow it to one! I love the feathered friends and I adore Darla (I already bought a ton of it but I could always use more!) Red Henna in the Farmer's Market line by Sandi Henderson is my favorite fabric ever, so I could always use more of that. Or how about the pink damask by Tanya Whelan. Or the seaside flower or maybe.....
ReplyDeleteSigh...I need to win the lottery...
I don't have a lot of yard work yet as spring has just showed up here. My husband has raked the grass and does most of it, I am only in charge of the flower beds. I'll get to planting right away I think, although not sure yet what is going in...I have three rhubarb plants in there so far, and I for sure want sweet peas. I love the smell of them!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE yardwork! I spend most sunny days outside in my yard. I love everything about it. It is raining and raining and raining here. Too wet for yard work. So I will wait (not very patiently) for the rain to stop, and I can go play with my flowers, and the dirt. ooxx`jodi
ReplyDeleteWe rent and have no yard. All of my yard work involves rotary cutters and pinking shears. It's the best kind, I suspect!
ReplyDeleteToo many fabrics to choose from. I do wish you had narrowed it down! Maybe some of the Bijoux tiled primose or maybe some Pop Garden paisley or daisies or very possibly the four print recess fabric in red. Decisive aren't I?
No yard work for me.
Ewwww, yard work. I will do dishes and laundry and wash the floors and won't complain too much. Well in this new house we don't have a yard yet! DS has been working to remedy that but he isn't quite to the point where he and his dad can plant the lawn. I prefer a few plants in pots on the porch and deck. Spring is just thinking about arriving here in north Idaho and I am tired of the BROWN! I do not get tired of the WHITE at all but this brown is just UGH!
ReplyDeleteFabric - oh what a tough decision - My first pick would be something from Wonderland - in RED. Second pick would be from Darla - also one of the reds, probably the damask.
Yardwork - pah! - I don't like it either. We're hesding into winter now, so there's not much to be done anyway, except for scraping up the dog's, um...stuff.
ReplyDeleteas for the yard of fabric - I don't think i can go past those Sweet polka dots. :-)
I leave the outside yardwork to DH if possible (except lawn mowing as I quite like that). But it's almost winter here, so there's plenty to do.
ReplyDeleteI'm not gonna choose a fabrci from the store till you let me now I've won :-)
I'd love a yard - I've been dying to get my hands on some Darla! We're actually into Autumn here is Oz, and I don't do the yard work either...I'm not into dirt too...Lol! Give me a sewing machine any day!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes,
Jenelle
The yardwork around here is done by my hubby. A wise woman told me (when I was newly married)that once he knows you can mow the lawn, then plan on doing it forever! I try to keep up on the weeding and trimming...but mowing an acre and a half is the big job!
ReplyDeleteYardage from the store...hmmm...I'd have to say something from Heather Bailey like Freshcut groovy floral. I have plans to make a blouse with some fabric from her Freshcut line and that would make a pretty addition. Thanks!
My yard work comes in spurts. If I want to do it - I'll do it else it will wait for another day. The last one I had I cleared off my old cactus garden, and built three terrarium of all my favorite cactus. That was early this year or was it late last year. Well its been months.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite in your store (and need a charm pack) is the 5" charm squares SNIPPETS Moda quilt kit fabric retro
I'm thinking Pop Garden or Ginger Blossom or maybe Wonderland? =D
ReplyDeleteYardwork? Thankgoodness I do none of those! I live in an apartment building, with no grass or big potted plants. Just two tiny plants which I constantly forget to water. And this reminds me that I should water them now. Or soon. =P
Thanks!
I ordered from you via ebay - and now find myself drawn to your store and blog - such fun! I quilt, make grand daughter dresses, smock - right now am inthe middle of sewing for my daughter's wedding the beginning of June (help - only 2 1/2 more dresses to go - and a wedding gown to hem and bustle...)!
ReplyDeleteMy other fun is gardening - yes - the dreaded yard work. I am a master gardener in my state - and I love to play outside as much as I love to sew. Every year the flower and veggie gardens get bigger and I have less lawn to mow. Love the fabrics you offer - it is like being able to sew with my flower beds printed on fabrics!
I think I would go for some Wonderland... I've been craving for some of it since it came out!! Maybe the butterflies? I would have to think about it...
ReplyDeleteAs for yardwork... That's one of the advantages (maybe the only one!) of living in a teeny-tiny appartment with no garden at all. Don't complain about yardwork, just think how lucky you are to have some green around you!!
I LOVE the Darla fabrics! I'd also "settle" for some Farmer's Market! Your fabric selection is wonderful! Now for the yardwork, I've never learned to start the mower!!...and my darling husband does a fantastic job, so I just keep cheering him on!!
ReplyDeleteWell, spring has sprung in Alabama, but I think it has sprung a leak! My backyard has been underwater for so long the worms are drowning! So, as far as yardwork goes.....not much to do until it dries out. I'm sure we'll be crying for rain this summer, but for now, I'm over it!
ReplyDeletei just posted pics of some of my yardwork.
ReplyDeleteif the truth be known, i SO need to do more in the yard, but i'd rather be quilting.
We just moved to a new house last summer. It's on an acre and the whole thing is covered with wood chips - no grass! Which is fine until your 4 year old wants to play soccer, so we are contemplating laying some sod . . .
ReplyDeleteI would love some of Sandi Henderson's Farmer's Market. Thanks so much.
Yardwork...I still have a little to do. Trim back bushes and add some color. Oh yeah, and my rose bushes leaves are yellow so I need to do something about that. I just love the new Pumpkins Gone Wild...I love the brown floral. Amazing. I love all things Darla too. I can't believe how wonderful that line is.
ReplyDeleteI actually enjoy yardwork. I got a lot of flowers in for my birthday and next week, its time for tomatoes and beans. As for the fabric...I would love a yard of anything really! I am thinking the turquoise fabric with the red and pink roses by Darla Wheelan, of course anything polka dot or wonderland would work as well! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI have a husband to do that outside kind of yardwork while I'm inside with all the associated maintenance therein. It works for me! I would love to have a yard of the Darla aqua rose print. I'd buy a pack of the charm squares and whip up a lovely purse!
ReplyDeleteI am more a "supervisor" of yard work but we jsut moved to an acreage so there is lots more this year :) And I have a black thumb so I tend to stay away from plants and just work with the flower prints.
ReplyDeleteI don't do yard work myself. I do good to remember the to water the few flowers that are on my front porch!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Diane
Too hard to choose,but I think I'd take any of the Bijoux fabric by Heather Bailey. My "yard"work includes using up a lot of my stash...forget about the outside "yard"work. Thanks for the chance.
ReplyDeleteWe have not got yard so no yard work,but I liked,when we had at mom.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to win. I'll choose after I win.(because I'm not a girl in Fortuna's Arms.)
I love working in the yard, with the flowers and such. I leave the grass cutting to the hubs.
ReplyDeleteEnter me, please!
Though I try, I don't have a great green thumb when it comes to plants. My son on the other hand is wonderful at yardwork. He grows tomatoes every year. My yard work consists of raking, trying to put in a few perennials and adding a whole bunch of annuals to make it look like I know what I am doing. I did look at all your fabric in the store and there were so many wonderful ones. It would be hard to decide.
ReplyDeleteI don't do anything that would get my hands dirty, so actual yardwork is out, but I will lower myself to cut the beautiful flowers my hubby cares for! He's in charge of everything outside of our four walls--and now that he's retired and I'm not, he also is in charge of everything inside the four walls! Life is good! Leaves me all the time in the world to do my sewing and knitting!
ReplyDeleteIf any yardwork is to get done at my place then I'm doing it! I knew it was a condition of buying a house with a yard - hubby would much rather have a townhouse where someone else does it all lol! Yesterday I put my first plants of the season in. I use the lasagne garden method for my beds - love it!
ReplyDeleteMy yard is tiny but I do like to brush out there- very satisfying, otherwise stroking the lavender leaves may not be work but is very pleasurable. Thinking of the yard took me to flowery fabrics- i like the Moda Pumpkins gone wild which look like flowers and Moda red bouquet building blocks fabric. If i'm feeling very girly I give a thumbs up to Darla blue rosie.
ReplyDeleteMorning. I have Fridays off and am planning on planting my tomatoes and cucumbers tomorrow! I am not a big gardener but LOVE fresh tomoatoes. And I love "Darla".
ReplyDeleteLiving in the mountains gives the wild life plenty of opportunities to CONSUME all of my yardwork - so I frequent the local Farmer's Markets! Easy-peasy! love you both, Stitch
ReplyDeleteIt is had to beat Darla, but I also like pumkins gone wild,and another favorite feathered friends, I only have a small picece of that,I got in a grab bag. I do not touch the garden, I kill all that I touch!!
ReplyDeleteWHAT? You don't do yard work? Girlfriend, you don't know what you're missing! It's definitely spring in Louisville (last weekend was the Ky Derby, after all) and I have been planting flowers, trees and shrubs like nobody's bidness. Trouble is, as I was sitting on the deck last night looking out at my yard I realized (with much panic), that there is absolutely no room left in my yard to stick even one more flower. WAAAAAAAA!! What to do now? I guess I'm limited to planters. oh well. Now that all the spring planting is over, I'll have more time to sew! And I can see the garden from my sewing room window! All is not lost after all! You already know how I feel about Darla. I love it all. And don't even get me started on Sweet and feathered friends. I'm thinking new napkins for summer are in order.
ReplyDeleteIf the fabric gods were smiling down on me I would probably go with something from the Hello Betty line, or MoMo or perhaps the damask from the Darla line...
ReplyDeleteSpring is just arriving here in MN and I have already cleaned out flower beds that were neglected last Fall. We'll see how long my motivation lasts, I start out strong and then lose interest which brings us back to Fall and totally neglecting the gardens and you see the pattern!!

ReplyDeleteAva Rose pink damask, or maybe the pink dot country fair by Denyse Schmidt, or perhaps the red Farmer's market apple dot by Sandi Henderson. Oh my goodness! I've never seen any of those except farmer's market in person! Well, it's been raining for like a week straight here, so there isn't any yard work to do! :D At least, that's what I'm telling myself!
ReplyDeleteI love anything by Moda...the flowers in their fabrics! That's my kind of garden. I did plant a couple new plants this year, but it's already too hot here in S.Texas to be outside...yesterday was 96. I have someone cut the lawns. I do like looking out my sewing room window at the flowering bushes & new plants in bloom.
ReplyDeleteNo yardwork for me this year. My landlord wants to put a patio in the backyard so there has been a hole in the middle of the yard for at least a year. maybe he'll fix it this summer (I think not).
ReplyDeleteso many pretty fabric, what to choose?
Oh, do we have yard work to do here! A long winter left behind a mess to clean up. I also have flowers to plant, which is much more fun than the clean-up work I'm leaving for my husband and oldest son.
ReplyDeleteI just adore the Darla fabric, and would love to make a great big quilt out of it.
Anne in Illinois
I would pick SIMPLICITY 3 Sisters Moda Fabric GREEN tucked pintuck - it's beautiful! My yard work this year is to start a little vege garden with my girls -- lets hope their interest doesn't die out too soon!
ReplyDeleteJennyy
What a GREAT giveaway! Let me tell you, I feel like I've already done enough yard work for the season!! Shoveling and Hauling Rocks to finish a Landscape project, weeding the front flower bed, and getting my garden in order are just a few of the "yard things" I've been up to!
ReplyDeleteAS for the yard work....ummmm I supervise...how's that. :D
ReplyDeleteI would love a yard of Darla....such gorgeous fabrics.
We have been busy in the yard for over a month now. I still have to plant some more vegetables, but they might be on hiatus this season! I love the SPRING MEADOW Moda Fabric STRIPE pink yellow blue dots. I think it would look wonderful in the baby's room.
ReplyDeleteMy "yardwork" takes place inside at the sewing machine! My husband does the outside! I do plant flowers and veggies, but I do that with my two little girls. Things may not be perfectly spaced or in order, but I love it just the way it is. I have "scrappy" flowerbeds...
ReplyDeleteI would choose either the Darla Rose in aqua, or the Wonderland Tweedle Dee in pink. :)
I'm in Spokane, Washington, so Spring hasn't really hit yet. But...I have beds to weed, flowers to plant, garden to plant, etc. I even occasionally mow. I would much rather be quilting! Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteOur yardwork this summer is different...we have added a vegetable/herb garden...so far we have started the green peppers in the house and built our garden box outside. Hopefully if my children will help grow and weed the garden they may eat the veggies! Your shop has lots of lovely fabrics...I adore your farmers market apple dot red fabrics...thank you.
ReplyDeleteOh, big decision. You know the Darla charm pack has 62 squares, but I really like the Wonderland Jelly Roll.
ReplyDeleteYardwork isn't on my list of hobbies either. I love all fabrics but I'm sure I could pick out something nice and springy! oohsaahsw@aol.com
ReplyDeleteThe only yardwork I'm into would have to involve a yard of fabric!!! And if I win this drawing, the yard might be just what I need to get me inspired to make that table runner my mom hinted for a few weeks ago!!!
ReplyDeletei am a lucky one, my hubby does all the yardwork...i would love the darla red gingham fabric! very summery!
ReplyDeleterobinheartsquilts.blogspot.com
You have so many beautiful fabrics - it's hard to pick just one! Though, I love the "Sweet Bubblegum Pink Sugar" or the "Farmer's Market Apple Dot". There's no yardwork for me around here - I live in a building that has it taken care of, but I will admit, I miss mowing the yard at my parent's house - it's a very satisfying work-out!
ReplyDeleteI Hate yard work! My two little ones make it for a 'too long of a process!' I just want to go out and get it done in 5 minutes.....would never happen, but I can dream!
ReplyDelete{LOVE} the entire line of darla, but LOVE the aqua with big red roses!
ONe GREAT thing about living in an apartment-- someone else does all the yard work!!! So I have plenty of time to sew (ha, ha!).
ReplyDeleteI always have a hard time picking just one when it comes to fabric. . . but I have been thinking about pop garden or bijoix for a while. . . or maybe a wonderland print? I don't know!!!
Oh, such a hard choice, you have amazing fabrics in your store. But if forced, I would choose Hello Betty Sunny Side Up, Orange Teal Retro. I love that fabric.
ReplyDeleteAs for yard work, it never ends at our house (and it seriously competes with quilting). We have 13+ acres...right now my husband is building me new raised vegetable garden beds and I love them. Can't wait to get them planted...
I think I would pick the wonderland by momo collection.
ReplyDeleteas for yardwork, lucky me we have gardeners, I just turn on the hose!
I'm a gardening girl....like everything but keeping the rogue grass from creeping into the flower beds. So guess what needs the most work right now...ugh! I think my hubby will be having fun with the Round Up this weekend. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway!
I fall on the avoid yardwork at all costs side of the fence. I use late hours as the excuse, but probably wouldn't do it regardless :)
ReplyDeleteLove your fabric and have really been enjoying reading your blog!

If by yardwork, you mean watching the gardening crew that blows the dirt off the sidewalk outside my apartment building, then yes - I do yardwork!
ReplyDeleteVery sweet fabrics I think I could find a use for a yard of the ticking.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a yard so to speak since I live in an apartment, but I rent a garden space and am headed there today to weed, water, plant veggies and pull weeds. I work at a nursery so I am gardening almost everyday and still loving it!
Oh Desi, I now feel compelled to find you the perfect gardening gloves. The kind that will make you want, or even strongly desire, to do yardwork! Maybe I should find these magical gloves for myself first ..... :)
ReplyDeleteoooooooooooh a full yard of fabric, yahoo!! I too do not do the yardwork at our house...I watch my husband do it...he has the "outside" chores and I have the inside....much cozier and warmer inside!
ReplyDeleteWe've (my husband!:) been doing yard work for a couple weeks now. Lots of planting, pulling weeds, and mowing. I leave it all up to my husband, though, as that is his career field. I just say "looks great, honey!" and he's happy!
ReplyDeleteI don't have any yard work. part of the joy/unpleasentness of renting an apartment. I just don't do well with potted plants for the deck.
ReplyDeleteI think the Darla Aqua Blue Red Pink Roses is my favorite! And I do much of the yardwork here...mostly because I figure it's exercise that is less boring than walking!
ReplyDeleteI love the Sweet aqua blue icing sugar fabric!
ReplyDeleteI live in an apartment, so there isn't any yard work, besides the 3 potted plants on our balcany, and my husband takes care of thos. When we do have a yard, he will probably still take care of the yard work, he likes doing it.
Thanks for the giveaway.
Yardwork? Uh....no, I don't do that. But I would happily work on a yard of Feathered Friends with the little birds..or the big birds.
ReplyDeleteI rent, and don't have any yardwork right now. It would be nice though...a big orchard in the back yard would be heaven! My pick would be the DARLA blue damask toile by Tanya Whelan. But there are so many options!
ReplyDeleteNew fabrics are always so tempting.
ReplyDeleteMy yardwork is very quick to do. I wash my porch from all the dust. Do not have a garden so I just enjoy the flowers in my flowerpots, and have a lot of time for sewing
I absolutely adore the Darla collection! It's probably my favorite.
ReplyDeleteAhh, yard work. We bought our house two years ago, and at the time, I had no idea how much work the "extensive" landscaping would be! It can be overwhelming, but it's a nice escape!
My yardwork?...sitting on the patio stitching beautiful hexagon flowers. A few thread tangles from time to time, but no weeds!!
ReplyDeleteI'm not into yardwork either - and neither is my hubby. But he will mow the lawn every week and I'll buy a planter or a hanging basket.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to make a Portabellopixie skirt for my daughter with the green water lily from ginger blossom - thanks for the chance!!
Here in southern California Spring happened in January, my poor roses are were so confused, yes by now roses are working on second blooming and the temperature today will be between 87 and 94 degrees. I love my garden and playing in the dirt that doesn’t mean that I like yard work but my hubby does; he enjoys mowing the lawn and sweeping every corner to perfection, he says is his relaxing time.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad I found you guys; love the blog and all the freebies. Roses and roses and more roses love Darla :)
Have a great day, and good luck to me! :p
I love the Darla red/pink ticking stripe. I adore the red and white... okay, maybe the green gingham too.
ReplyDeleteI'm the gardener of the house here. The grass is just starting to grow again, and it's safe now to uncover all of the dead crud left over from last year in the garden. I hate that part.
We just moved into a house, so I am loving having a yard to work in! It's mostly grass so I'm mainly pulling dandelions (ugh!). But I did plant some new flowers a couple days ago. I can't wait to get a garden started though!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun and appropriate giveaway! thanks!
Spring has been a little slow getting here this year, so I haven't done much yard work yet this year. Just a little weeding. The tulips are all in bloom right now and look so happy.
ReplyDeleteYour store has such cute fabrics in stock right now! I Love the Farmers market line. I love the cherry print and the blue with pink flowers print (can't remember names)! As for yardwork - yikes - I don't even like to talk or think about it. My husband is in charge of the hard stuff like mowing and trimming. All I have to do is water and weed, and I don't even like that. I love to have a beautiful yard, but I don't like having to do the work to get it. Too bad they don't stay looking great on their own.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy yard work when I can get myself out there. I love your wonderland prints. I would definitley get one of those!
ReplyDeleteI'd love a yard of something from the Wonderland line. I received 6 fat quarters as a gift and I want more :-)
ReplyDeleteThis year I'm not really doing any of the yardwork. My husband is taking care of it. My job is to keep the kids out of the vegetable garden :-)
gordandalisa(at)gmail(dot)com
Oh thats a hard one. I think it is a tie between that red and white cheater cloth and the pink check darla. Nice fabric.
ReplyDeleteI think my heart stopped when I saw this post. no.seriously.it.did!!
ReplyDeleteI love the Darla line #1 and a whole yard... Holy heck!
What a great surprise! It would make such a sweet baby girl quilt. That's my goal once the wedding shenanigans are over!
Wow that's a lot of yards! Well, my yard needs cut! Good thing hubby will be home on Saturday!
ReplyDeleteThe aqua blue with red pink roses would be my first pick but I would happily take anything you have!
ReplyDeleteThanks.....Jane
yardwork? HA! We live in a rental duplex and our unit has the front yard (other people have the back yard...bummer, I wish I had the back), but we hadn't mowed in a while because it wasn't growing and there had been lots of rain...until a week ago, when we got a note from our landlord "time to work on the upkeep of your yard." Ooops....my husband is in charge of the yard work and what a great job he did (though there is a little patch of grass that is a mohawk now). He went out and bought a bunch of new tools for the pruning and weeding --I bet that was really hard on him, going to the hardware store and everything. Poor guy ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway. I love looking at your Darla fabrics.
spondah(at)aol(dot)com
I love looking at the flowers and grass and sometimes I will wed. BUT I don't like dirt under my nails either. I do love Darla fabric.
ReplyDeletejethree@gmail.com
My yardwork involved planting new flowers already, and I'm about to get started on our veggie garden! Nothing better than growing your own veggies :)
ReplyDeleteYardwork schmardwork - LOL! Isn't that what boys are for? I'm more interested in the fiberous yardwork in your store.....I LOVE all of the Darla prints, but I'm jonesin' for some momo, like one perhaps...WONDERLAND Tweedle Dee pink MODA fabric MOMO flowers.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
Karen G.
i enjoy a little bit of yard work here and there. just did a bunch last month, mainly weeding from the winters growth, but now it is needing it a little more.
ReplyDeletethanks for such a lovely giveaway!! i would love to get a yard of fabric!! i'd probably pick some of the new feathered friends you had on here a little bit ago. :)]
gymbocrazymama@hotmail.com
My husband is doing the yard work these days. I had started planting peas which he sprayed poison on in order to kill the mugwort and I haven't been out since.
ReplyDeleteYardwork? That's a guy thing. LOL
ReplyDeleteI love the Cream ABC letters FABRIC Building Blocks alphabet MODA .... perfect for kids.
I made a terrarium in a jar this week! That's the extent of my "yard"work! :) Thanks for the fantastic giveaway!!!
ReplyDeleteI leave the yardwork to my husband. The yardage, however, I'm all over it! I'm working on a red and white quilt right now and the Lily Red by Mary Engelbriet for Moda's Baskets of Flowers line looks good enough to eat! Oh, I never win these things, but it's so generous of you to offer a yard of fabric to your readers!
ReplyDeleteI do all the yard and garden work; flowers and vegetables; kids do the lawns, although our youngest leaves this year for college. Unless they come home for their summers, I have a feeling I'll be cutting the grass too...hubby has his job plus the farm work. Physically, I can't do all that I would like to do...I envision loveliness everywhere, but usually end up with weedy messes :( oh well.
ReplyDeleteOf the fabs, it is a hard choice to make with so much in your shop. THink I'd like a yard of the wonderland tweedle dee red with momo flowers. THis line is so aptly named! someone is great at coming up with names for these lines....wish I was so talented!

I love yard work. Great opportunity to get out and enjoy the weather. I've already prepped all of my flower gardens for the spring but plan to start a small veggie garden with my kids this weekend. And the fabric - how could anyone choose just 1?!?!? They are all so pretty. But, I think if I had to narrow it down to 1 - I'd pick the SPACEBOTS monster space alien or the SPACEBOTS space spaceships - either would be great in a quilt for my 5 year old boy.
ReplyDeleteI'm seriously loving Darla right now! Fun fun!
ReplyDeleteAs for yardwork... I always talk about how I want things like a veggy garden, but really, yeah, I'm not really that girl. I kinda really don't like getting dirty:) And right now I'm lucky enough that my landlord does all our yardwork! Hurray for renting:)
I really love the fabrics of Darla. As far as yardwork goes, I have put all kinds of annuals into pots since we are renting our home in England. All of the various pots look so pretty together. My husband has planted a small vegetable garden.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the weekly giveaways.
carol_busse@yahoo.com
Man~ ladies! 95 comments, I'm just getting lost in the crowd now!
ReplyDeleteYardwork-planted seeds, 5 or 6 have come up...:(
oops I forgot to say what fabric I'd love...some "sweet" Darla flowers. (don't think I'm trying to cheat by putting in 2 comments! :) Thanks for always doing these Thursday giveaways.
ReplyDeleteI'm working on a Wonderland quilt right now, so I would have to pick Pepper for my fabric!
ReplyDeleteAs for yardwork, I live in a place where an association cares for such things. But back home at my folks' I look after the roses. :-)
I haven't started my yard work yet but have lots of plans for the coming weeks as I really enjoy gardening. As for the Darla fabrics, they're all lovely, anyone would make me happy :). Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI actually like working in the yard, but we are trying to sell our house, so we won't be adding much to our yard this year :( Thanks for the giveaway!!
ReplyDeleteI love anything with polka dots. Hubby does the yard work while I do the sewing. Works great for both of us.
ReplyDeleteI hate yardwork but I don't like my yard to be the worst on the block, so the minimal gets done. My husband doesn't do any yard work so it all falls on me - yuck.
ReplyDeleteI would much rather be sewing or baking!
Sue Cahill (sbonetsue at yahoo dot com)
Okay here is my tragedy story of yard work. I live in southern CA so most of my yardwork has been done for over a month, including all my seedlings in the vegetable garden. One of my tomato plants from last year left me babies which always means a early harvest and the first two red of the tomatoes were almost ripe last Wed. I left them on the vine and went out on friday to enjoy my harvest. They were gone! I finally found part of one, so some animal came into the yard between wed night and friday morning and robbed me of my first harvest.
ReplyDeleteI am certain that the Portugal Gold Victorian Moda fabric by April Cornell would brighten up my day and help me forget my tragedies of last week.
Thanks for the giveaway,
Kami
Oh I love to work in my bitty garden.....'specially when the hummingbirds flit right by me, which they do all the time.
ReplyDeleteOh which fabric.....are you allowed to hope for a charm pak of Darla, or I would just let you pick something, anything. Thanks for giving us a chance at all this goodness.
Oh, it would definitely be some Darla..... I'm addicted to sweet Darla.... As for yard work, isn't that what husbands are for???
ReplyDeletelou0728@yahoo.com
I have such bad allergies, that an allergist I saw while living in NC wrote me a prescription against doing any type of yardwork. And it's been six years now since I've done any. Lucky for me where we live there's inmate labor that does it for us. Other than that my hubby would pay for someone to come do it.
ReplyDeleteWell...my flowers are blooming and bright in my yard here in sunny Californina.....I leave most of the major yard work for my gardener, but do maintain the hanging flower/plants around the patio. I plan to plant a small garden this year, but have not started it yet....to many quilting/sewing projects to complete =)
ReplyDeleteSuch a thoughtful giveawy...I love the Darla collection =)
Good luck to all!
Sweettata (Lanette)
Oh my, my yard consists of maybe 8 feet by 4 feet, and i've started cosmos and poppies, and also have a larger lavender growing, and strawberries!
ReplyDeleteI would looove the wonderland from your shop :)
I need to go outside and weed, and plant my bulbs, and weed some more, and plant my vegetable garden....oh, forget it....I think I'll just go quilt. Sounds like a lot more fun!
ReplyDeleteYou would think having a large patio would cut down on the yardwork, but, NO! Must keep up with the weeds growing between the pavers. I would rather be quilting.
ReplyDeletelove that fabric!!!
ReplyDelete
