Because we went quilt shop shopping today, and need a little more space on our shelves, we're giving away a five fat quarter bundle of Swanky this week! Yep, these pretty fabrics could be yours, all you have to do is let us know what you've been up to lately. Here's mine:
I've been enjoying some beautiful fall foliage and the trails right outside my door. And, of course, loving getting to live so near family for a while! I could easily be spoiled in Virginia!
You have until Midnight EST next Tuesday, and the winner will be announced on Wednesday, just in time for Thanksgiving! Wow, I cannot believe the holidays are getting here so quickly. Best of luck!
P.S. If your e-mail is not in your blogger profile, please leave it in the comments. Feel free to write it like this: jennie (at) cloverandviolet (dot) com, if you're worried about spam!
What a great way to share the fabric wealth!

Thanks for the chance!
