Summer Give-Away Day 4

It's day 4 of the summer give-away!  Wow, where is this week going?  First, a slight correction to Monday's and Wednesday's squares.  I listed the smaller squares as 3", when actually they are 4"!  So that's a good thing, right?  A bit more fabric than you thought, and if you need a smaller size, you can always cut them down!

Now on to today's offering which is another set of squares - this time a group of Asian prints (most have some woven-in metallic threads).  There are 54 5-inch squares, plus 32 3 3/4-inch squares.   The 5" squares are assorted prints, but the 3 3/4" squares are all the same.  These squares also have one corner trimmed, but it falls outside the 1/4" seam allowance.  These are leftovers from a project, but it is a lovely background/neutral fabric so hopefully you can find a use for them. I think I have finished with the Asian fabric phase, at least for now.

So, what thermofax screen would work well with these Asian prints?  (Not that you have to use it with them.)  How about a screen of ginkgo leaves?  This screen image measures 4 1/2 x 4 inches.
If you would like to be in the running to win this group of squares and thermofax screen, leave a comment telling us your favorite type of fabric - hand-dye, batik, Asian, 30's-40's, reproduction, ethnic influence,etc.  For a second chance to win, subscribe to our newsletter and leave a comment when you've done so.  (We've just recently sent our first one; frequency will be every other month - or less.)  The comments will remain open through Sunday, June 14 and a winner will be drawn on Monday, July 15.  US addresses only please.

Be sure to join in on Vicki's give-away, and check out the other link-ups too.  Come back every day this week for another chance to win!

  1. I love the 30's fabrics. My daughter loves those Asian fabrics. But when I do scrappy quilts I love it all. Those would make beautiful hexies.

  10. Batiks, for sure, are my favorite. But quilting would not be as interesting without all the other mountains of fabric I have in my stash.
