Choices, Choices.....Today's winner will be able to pick from the 4 lines above for 4 fat quarters.

You choose the line, Wee Play, Fresh Squeezed, Freshcut or Posh and Corrie will choose the fat quarters. So it will be like a little surprise for you when you get it. We love a good surprise.

Leave me a comment telling me what's on your to-do list today. That should be easy enough, right? I'm not making this too hard, right? Anonymous commenters are fine, but I do need a name and an email. I guess that you wouldn't be anonymous anymore, right? Lots of Rightness going on here. Random Drawing will be later tonight.(Mountain Standard Time :)

  1. Hi Des + Corrie
    This is the first time I came to your blog. You want to know, what my things for today are: Here (in Switzerland) we already had noon. So what did I in the morning? Some sewing ant cutting for a new scrap quilt. Then I cooked a meal for me and my smallest son. Rest of family is out (DH and greater son). Now I must do some ironing and housekeeping.
    That's what I am doing today!

    Feed the dogs,empty the dishwasher, start a load of laundry, hopefully have time to hang out that laundry, check email and read some blogs while eating breakfast, go to the job that pays me, pay bills on lunch, back to work, go buy birthday presents and decorations, come home,cook supper, bring in laundry, feed dogs, go to library, go to nursing home..... and I'm sure I'll squeeze in a few more things. Did you notice that there was no sewing in there at all!! Not good!!

  5. hillyhaThanks for the comment Des. I'm pretty new to the blog world & have no idea how people can e-mail me with out it going out to the world! Whatever you did ,I'm glad you got hold of me!! What's on my to-do list today?? The typical laundry,cleaning,blogging,talk on phone,decide what to do with that leftover curtain fabric,maybe sew a little. What I wanted to do was go walking at the town park,library & farmers Market-the rain has that on delay.My other plan would be world peace,health & happiness for all I love & then celebrate with a breakfast of a dark chocolate filled croissant & a Starbucks Mocha Frap.!!Carpe Diem!!!

  9. Hmm, its almost 11:00 a.m. where I am. So far today I have done two loads of laundry, made the bed, fed the fish, showered and dressed, drove to work (which is what I'm supposed to be doing now)and met with a new tenant. This afternoon is more work. Then at 5:00 I will drive home, pick up the other car at the mechanics, go to the grocery store, make dinner, clean up the kitchen, and hopefully finish sewing a surprise gift for one of my favorite bloggers. Whew, I'm tired already! Fat quarters would make me feel sooo much better. dlord(at)pinehurstproperties(dot)com.

  10. Our day is just starting here in CA. Today we are having a family day, since the hubby is leaving tomorrow for 11 days. Our to do list involves playing in the pool and having dinner together. A very short list, but we're just going to see where the day takes us!
    Hope everyone has a great day!

    My to-do list for today;
    *take picture of the purse I made last yesterday.

  15. Ooooh! Love "Posh!"

    I always have a long to-do list, but on top of the usual housework, I need to do some alterations on some costumes for my daughter's next play. I'm much more of a quilter than a clothing seamstress, so this is hard for me. I'd rather be quilting!

  17. I don't think I will write down everything that I "need" to do today, but maybe leave a few comments on some of the things that I know I will get done today. I will be sewing a back for a quilt, weeding my front flower beds, cleaning my kitchen and dining room, going to a mandatory meeting at work. Whew! I am tired thinking about it. Maybe some new fat quarters would bring back my energy? It could happen. Luv you guys!

  18. Today I had a job interview and now I have to clean the kitchen, do several loads of laundry and prep story ideas to send to various magazines.


    I just got my order of charm packs and they are wonderful and your shipping is super fast. Thanks so much, and I hope to start on a quilt very soon!

  19. To Do List -- waxing appointment (ouch); drive 40 miles round trip to pick up a replacement senior portrait of my daughter (my husband broke the original and ruined the print -- grrrr); worry about by lawn and landscaping (long story). Sigh.....

  20. Today I'm going to work and then hurry home and make my latest dear jane block so I can say "up to date!!" which always feels so good. I spent the last 2 evenings doing 2 blocks each night and I have 1 to go. I like ALL those fabrics. They are all darling. I have something out of fresh squeezed and I love it, normally I would want the wee play (my colors) but I think since Posh is out of the norm for me I'd like that. I really think its darling and I've been considering what I might do with it if I got some anyway. Fabric is so fun.

  21. Hi Des & Corrie!
    First-time blogger here. I am on summer vacation (I am a teacher) and I don't know where to start. I'm making a charm quilt (Moda Silly Safari) for my 2-year-old grandson, and am just waiting for stuff I ordered from you guys to come! I also just got back from the Farmer's Market and got some yummy strawberries to make strawberry shortcake for my husband for supper. I love this time of my life! Three sons grown, married and gone, two grandsons thriving and happy, and my husband of 36 years by my side.
    Have a great day!

But for today I have to clean up after 5 kids and help a friend with her blog makeover (I am so my own version of the Swan) Paint my tin ceiling tiles for my headboard and play with my kiddies.

  24. My to do list today, hum. I need to clean the bathroom and tidy up the place but what will actually happen is probably something more along the lines of baking cookies, sewing, and surfing the internet for more sewing ideas. Got to keep it real!

  25. Corrie - you neglected to post YOUR to do list :D Have you got something fun going on?

    I have showered and dressed and cut the jammie pants out (flannel backed satin). I think I will go sew them up real quick before my daughter gets home. Then they are OUTTA THE WAY!

  30. Hi,
    Well, today has been crazy crazy crazy! Finished my night duty at 7am, rushed home, said goodbye to my hubby who has now gone off to Germany for 2/52. Said happy birthday to my youngest (12 today, bless) then waved the kids off to school, went to hospital for blood tests, then shopping (groceries), got home, checked emails, went to bed (eventually) at 2pm, woken by my kids at 4.15pm (what day is it???!!!), friends came round to celebrate my sons' birthday, now it's me time before bedtime. Night night from the UKxxx

  32. My to-do list is nearly done, but I have yet to make supper, print out some thank you cards for my dh to fill out for all his birthday presents, make a card for a wonderful granddaddy in our church congregation, finish the laundry, coax my husband into bringing up a bunch of tubs of clothing storage from the basement to file away outgrown or grow-into clothing for our three little lambs, finally unpile my sewing table (the newest "catch-all" in our home and balance the checkbook. And in there somewhere, I hope to have time to catch a nice, long shower, nurse the baby, love on my little lambs and spend some down time with dh! These days are full of activity, but I wouldn't trade it for the world!

  37. Oh goody!! I have been waiting for a fabric giveaway. My to-do list consists of those mundane tasks we all know so well – dishes (done), laundry (working on it) & dinner (no ideas yet). The only problem is that I seem to suffer from housework ADD – too many lovely things to distract. Right now I am admiring the items listed on your side bar as ‘Coming Soon’. Can’t Wait!

  39. My to-do list for today -
    1. take my daughter out to my parent's place for morning tea 9cupcakes already made)
    2. Wrap up a package that should have been sent weeks ago (oops).
    3. Washing, ironing, vacuuming. How exciting.
    4. keep an eye on our poor old dog who has been at the vet for the past few days. :-(

    There. Not terribly thrilling, and I'd say #3 will be avoided for as long as possible!
