If the top layer's anything to go by, it's a great bundle of fabric! I'm looking for inspiration for a 'big bed' quilt for my daughter for when she moves out of her cot, and this fabric could be a possible candidate!

Georgina said...

OOooh I'm first! I follow you on Facebook and subscribe! I'm a big fan and love what you do both in/for the quilting community and with fabric! I love hearing about the family too!
If I were to win the Frolic I would make myself a superdooper pieced apron - I feel a little selfish but I have had the same Laura Ashley print one for 25 years and I am getting enthused by all the snappy aprons appearing in blogland!

Georgina said...

Oops second!

Rafael's Mum said...

Hi Amy, thanks for the giveaway and festival, it is going to be so much fun! I have a piece of frolic backing but nothing for the quilttop, it is waiting in my drawer for something it 'goes' with and this would be perfect !

Lynne (Lily's Quilts) said...

I think I'd made a flying geese in the forest quilt - I've had my eye on it for a while - I'd probably make a mini version though because the full size one would take me forever and a day!

If I won, I would incorporate the charm pack into the handbags I make. Well, that is what I think at the moment!

I Quilt Scarlet and Gray said...

Sandy's Frolic reminds me of the decore in my house when we bought it 23 years ago! So I could make a lap quilt to remind myself of those first years of being in the house and my marriage to my husband. Thanks for the chance Amy.

Anita in Florida said...

Love your giveaway, thanks. Not sure what I'd make at the moment. Just finished a quilt and am taking a day or two breather. Also trying to decide which quilt to use for your Quilt Festival!

Hi Amy, I'm already a follower and now I "like" you on Facebook too. That fabric is not my usual thing, gorgeously bright and vibrant, so I think I'd make a bag with it which would be lovely for the summer. Thanks for a great giveaway. Lis x

Frolic is so pretty! There's a baby coming up in the family - the first since I started quilting - so you know where that layer cake would go! Already a follower. Thanks Amy!

Mary said...

Oh this is a great giveaway! I've been eyeing the Frolic line for awhile and a layer cake is perfect - it makes up into two baby filmstrip quilts (visit crazymomquilts.blogspot.com or my blog to see examples) out of one layer cake.
