It worked!!!! .....Well kind of...I got it on the Post but still have not managed to move it to my side bar. Well I'll work on it. But for now let me tell you what this is all about. As the name of the blog says it is a stash busting giveaway.
.
Katy at http://www.imagingermonkey.blogspot.com/ has come up with this wonderful idea to cut down on the stash by sharing it with others, and I for one would like to be a part of this....have you ever looked in your stash and it looks soooo... boring? You wish you had just a little piece of some of the fabulous fabrics some others seem to always be 'playing' with? Well now's your chance.
.
I will try and explain it it but since Katy does it so much better you should visit her blog. Great place to drop by. According to Katy ....quote....
.
"The plan is, those interested in having a kind of chain of bloggy giveaways will also host a stash busting giveaway on the same day. Plus, we will all link to each others' blogs on our own, telling the whole bloggy world about our giveaways and hopefully having lots of people come and visit."

I am going to give away...
2 fat quarters..pink/chartreuse/yellow..some matching satin ribbon, some matching green thread , some bits & pieces of lace and a 1995 Quilting book complete with paper patterns that I picked up at a library book sale.
I will draw names from people who leave me comments and tell me what they may want to do with this pretty fabric. I will draw names tomorrow (Feb 5th) at 6 pm to give everyone a chance to get in on this. I'm kind of late myself but so what... I can do it on my time...right? RIGHT! Never know, if this works out I may do this on a monthly basis and try and share my stash with others.Hope this all makes sense to you and I for one am off to visit my stash busting buddies over at Katy's blog. Good luck...hope you get in on lots of goodies and that you at least get in on time for the draw. She has wonderful prizes lined up.....whoo-hoo!

Please put my name in the hat. As a newbie quilter, I'd probably go with something simple - I'm thinking those fabrics would look good in "whirlygiggles"!
Thank you for participating, and working so hard to get that html code working!
me again, love that spots fabric and I'm sure my niece will love it too, as she has her "pink period"
so probably it will be used for a ruffles skirt
I think the pretty fabrics and ribbon would make a nice Spring-time creation of some sort - I am not sure exactly what yet! Thanks for the generous giveaway!

And with those colorful fabrics, I would like to put together a bag/purse/pouch for my niece, because I owe her one since her birthday... which was last november!!!
Thanks for the opportunity! :-D

I'd make an apron with it! And, I'd so enjoy the quilting book! I love to quilt!

If I win this giveaway I would make a little tiered skirt, those fabrics are made to stay together.
I would use it ina quilt or decorating project.
I see a pillow waiting in your stash. I am making a quilt from a 1994 quilt magazine right now. Don't know if I can handle a year more current. thanks for offering these goodies.
