In addition to the panel, there will be a few fabrics from this bundle that she included with the panel. Jacquelynne's fabrics are from Henry Glass and I love feel, the "hand" of the fabrics. Always soft yet firm and so nice to sew! Check out this link for free patterns for the "Happy Town" fabrics......
If you go here, you can see a color card of the entire line. All royalties from the sales of this fabric line will be donated to Quilts for Kids (QuiltsForKids.org). Plus, there is a contest for making something with the "Happy Town" fabrics. Any quilts entered in the contest will be donated to hospitalized children through Quilts for Kids, and the winning quilts will be displayed at International Quilt Market in Portland, Oregon in May. The top prize is $500 cash, second prize is $250 cash, and there is a special category for quilters under age 16. The contest rules are here. If you want to purchase the fabrics, you'll find them at the Fat*Quarter*Shop. And now............if you would like a chance to win the panel and a bundle of fabrics so that you can create your own quilt, then here is what you have to do..............
Just tell me what Happy Town you grew up in! I grew up in Lehigh, Iowa and it is my favorite little Happy Town! Leave your name and the Happy Town where you grew up and then on Sunday evening, February 24th at 8:00 p.m. CST, I'll have my Random Number Man draw the lucky winner. Good luck!
I'll be stitching and will be back soon..........

I grew up in lots of towns but the one I liked the best was Huntsville Alabama.
ReplyDeleteI did not grow up in a town. I grew up on an island just outside of Portland Oregon and still live near there. I do like Portland so for me it is a Happy town.

I always say I grew up in Northfield, MN but I never lived in town. Then, again, have I grown up yet? Northfield is famous for the defeat of the Jesse James gang so I suppose you could say it's a happy town. Thanks for the chance to win this new line of fabric. I have an idea for it, also.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to playing with those fabrics too. Aren't they fun? My Happy Town would have to be Jesup, Iowa.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love this panel so much. Would love to make this quilt and add a bunch of matchbox cars for my grandson's upcoming 3rd birthday present. I grew up in a happy town with a pretty sweet name, Sugar City, Idaho.

ReplyDeleteI was born and grew up in a (then) small village, Buxton, in Norfolk UK.I had a wonderful childhood and my memories will be with me forever.
ReplyDeleteI grew up in Allison Park, PA which wasn't really a town but rather one of many suburbs of Pittsburgh. It was a nice place to grow up -- friendly, safe, good schools and with all the advantages of a big city nearby.
ReplyDeleteI grew up in the town of Griffith, IN. I lived at the edge of town and didn't have many neighbors, so I learned how to entertain myself. I think that is why I sew, do crafts, cook, garden, can etc. I feel like I had a perfect childhood and still have great memories of school, neighbors,friends and family.
