Batiks are always inspiring for me, as well as hand dyed fabrics. There is that little surprise in them that adds the sparkle to any project!
I love tye dyes and fall colored fabric and the denuims and reds draw my eyes , i am constantly thinking of a new quilt block designs for these fabrics and …i am a couple of yrs new to this !
I love to sew with hand dyed, they are so unique!
Batiks are my all time favorite but would love to get my hands on some hand dyed. Great giveaway and inspiring quilts. Thanks
I can’t stop collecting batiks!!!! I have a lot of projects in my sewing room, and most of them are batiks! So many fabrics, so little time!
Most any fabric will send me to my sewing room. I do love batiks
I love nearly all fabrics, but especially hand dyed stuff. People are so very creative. 🙂
Great colours like purple, pink, red and yellow make me starting a new project right away 😉
Thanks for the chance to enter the giveaway. I love all fabrics and plan to use up as much as possible from the sewing room this year. New fabric is always great.
Happy days.

Tone on Tone clear clean crisp Teal fabrics. I love them in hand dyes, Batiks and prints
Ooh so many beautiful items! very hard to vote! I confess to have been bitten by the batik bug 😉
I love batiks.
I love to work with a wide variety of fabrics, so this is a hard question. Right now I’m finishing up a quilt done in dark red, gold, blue, green and creams – very country looking, but getting ready to start a quilt in bright clear limes, teals and purples with black and whites. I love them both!
I love looking at all the beautiful quilts submitted. I vote for the ones that appeal to my eye.Being relatively new to quilting, ANY and ALL fabrics bring out new ideas and dreams. I have a special fondness for brights, tone on tones and hand dyed materials.
I will say I’m inspired by country the most, though if I had hand dyed or batiks, I ‘m sure I would be inspired by them, too.
Retro-Mod fabrics make me so excited…. I love them. Think Austin Powers!
I’m a total sucker for batiks. Seriously can not resist touching them & taking them home to start a new project. I’m fairly new to hand dyes, but love them as well. Such rich tones to play with.
When I get text prints I immediately want to create!
Love Vickies hand dies.
I love bright, rich batiks and hand dyes. They make me itch to sew!
So, the hand dyes you offer are great! Thanks for the chance.
I love 30s repros! They make me so happy when I work with them.
Bright and bold, saturated colors that absolutely defy the fact that I live in Anchorage, Alaska and have 4 more long months of winter left to endure!
Batiks are my very most favorite fabrics. Would love to try the hand dyes in a project.
I am a country quilter…love the earthy tones – greens, barn reds, dusty blue and all the tans. Add black or yellow and the blends are beautiful. The batiks have added to the mix!
Almost any NEW fabric makes me want to rush home and start sewing. I do have some batiks that I think are so pretty I don’t want to cut them or ruin them in some way. I am just so happy to own them! 🙂
Batiks! I can’t get enough of them. The rich hues and brilliant colors, the deep blues and purples, the endless project possibilities! I always get sidetracked at the Batik section.
A wonderful collection of quilts, so very hard to choose favorites.
I love the blue, green and purple batiks, especially if they’ve got some kind of nature theme, be it butterflies or seahorses, or maybe leaves…doesn’t matter, I just love playing with ’em all!
Reproduction prints, I just love sewing them together and seeing a beautiful quilt emerge.
Debbie
Batiks in most shades especially yellows, blues and purples.
Love the quilts on show this week, I have a very long short list to work thru before I vote.
Jenny
I love batiks!
What absolutely phenomenal entries this week – oh gosh, so hard to choose only 4!
Perhaps the question should be what fabric makes me NOT want to run and hide in my workroom and play? That would be so much easier to answer…but ok…I’ll go with batiks..they make me tingle!
I love any fabrics that are for my crafts but not so keen to get on my machine when hubby needs alterations to hems on jeans or my daughter wants curtains made.
Love to open drawers and just handle material too.
Have a fabric fetish I must admit but I really, really like anything primitive 🙂
So many wonderful quilts…hard to pick just four! I love the beautiful rich colors of hand dyes and batiks. Just can’t get enough of them.
hard to pick favs … like them all! love my batiks most of all!
Wow… Great quilts and great contest 🙂
Great quilts…. Hard to pick 4 🙂
I love batiks….. I love working with them. So elegant and gracious 🙂
Great quilts!
I love batiks and the 1930s
Thanks for the give away
I’m mad for blue fabrics, particularly ones with lush detail and rich, strong shades of blue.
I love blue, it’s my favorite color, I have loads of blue, but recently when I went to pull fabrics for a project I discovered I have no pink. That just won’t do, with one baby grand daughter and another on the way. What has me running to my sewing room, batiks…I just love them. I don’t own hand dies, I’ve been afraid of dye stability and ruining projects – nearly everything I make will be washed. I need to get past that, because I do love the look of them, and I do a lot of applique and know they would enhance the projects.
Any fabric inspires me… it doesn’t take much. However, at the moment, I’m working on Quilts for Kids, so really cute juvenile prints call to me.
bright sunny colors, fabrics that make me feel happy – and that is usually batiks or hand dyes.
I find beauty in most fabrics but have never had an opportunity to use the hand-dyed so I’d love to win that. Thank you.
Big modern prints and solids! It’s difficult to not start a new quilt every weekend. 🙂
I love hand-died fabrics, especially blues. Thanks for the giveaway!
I had a load of hand dyes that I cut immediately after ironing. Probably the fastest I’ve ever done that. Usually it takes me a lot of time to marinate a quilt.
Very difficult to decide on which to vote for. All the entries are wonderful and makes winter more desirable.
The fabric that makes me want to drop everything and quilt depends on my mood. There isn’t a fabric that I don’t like in the right place in the right quilt.
I love 1800 reproductions fabrics but also love batiks, country, hand dyed etc, etc. I just love fabrics and love to look at quilts. Also love to make them!
It was very hard to decide this time because there were so many beautiful ones!
Stark Winter Trees represent this month’s theme IMHO
‘A Lone Winter Tree’ gets my vote.
Perhaps batiks will be incorporated into an upcoming theme.
Batiks and hand-dyed fabrics are the ones that make want to drop everything and quilt! This was a stunning collection this week.
Homespuns and soft florals always entice me. I guess they reflect that I’m a country girl at heart!
Batiks are absolutely the fabric that makes me run to my sewing room! But I love ALL fabric!
Modern fabrics and fabrics that look like they’re from the 70’s & 80’s make me want to sew!
A lot of new entries this week. Hard to vote.
Batiks are just sooo beautiful and offer so much inspiration. Beautiful no matter how they are used.
I love Reproduction and Vintage fabrics.
Batiks and hand dyes in earthy colors and once in awhile I will see a perfect sky sunset and have to make it into something
Batik fabrics really get my creative juices flowing.
This is a fabulous collection of Winter Themed quilts, very hard to pick just four!
I love flannels first and then batiks.
I’m a batik girl…
I love quilting cottons in Christmas colors – beautiful greens, reds, whites. I can’t wait to start sewing when I come home with some new pieces of fabric in these colors.
Sew hard to narrow it down to just one type of fabric. I guess I’d have to say ‘brights’. That includes lots of options.
Loved The one titles Three Trees. I like moderns, especially those that are bright and fun!
Modern florals
Batiks and brights make me want to rush to the sewing machine
Just can’t resist those beautiful batiks.
all new fabric makes me want to sew some thing new
When I see fabrics and a pattern that just click I want to start sewing! Batiks and ombres are really special to me though so I look for patterns that make sure of their special qualities.
I’m loving all the new shabby chic fabrics that are coming out now.
Batiks are my favorite and I love to use them as blenders! Everytime there is a fat quarter sale, I go crazy picking up combinations of colors for my stash.
I love most cotton fabrics. Lately though I’ve been adding more batiks to my stash.
Oh my, which 4 do I choose to vote for. Too hard to choose.
All are to pretty. The hand dyed fabrics are beautiful and are perfect for a new project.
I was so inspired by the quilts this week, normally my pallet of choice is bright spring and summer colors. These gals worked wonders with the darker shades of winter! A box of hand me down scraps will get me at the sewing machine quicker than anything!
I have to say Hand Dyed & Batiks are my go to fabrics. They are so versatile…and it’s like 2 fabrics for the price of one because you can use both side of the fabrics! In my world, you can’t have too many of either type…and I have the stash to prove it. Thanks for the nice giveaway!
I just love Batiks..They are my new obsession. They look so good with any project you are working with…Would love to add some to my stash..Thanks for the chance to enter this giveaway.
I just love working with batiks. Every project comes out with a surprise. Thanks for having this chance for this giveaway!
I’ve been into batiks and solids for the past few years.
I adore the batiks!!! I find myself going from traditional to modern images and I have an obsession with all fabric..Quilting is my personal therapist and the fabrics are my addiction 🙂 I love seeing other quilters work, there is certainly a lot of very talented people out there!!
Recently I’ve developed an obsession with gradated fabric where one color goes from light to dark or where the colors change from warm to cool. These are great for borders and to give movement over the quilt surface. Vicki’s hand dyes have wonderful gradations and I’m glad to have a chance to win some.
I’m just beginning to work with batiks and am learning to love them. But give me almost any fabric in shades of green or blue, and I’m happy.
Once again, there were so many beauties this week it was hard to narrow it down to just four choices.
Just about any batik makes me RUN to my studio to create. I’m current making an all-batik quilt called “Sea Glass” with teals, blues, and sand-colored fabrics. Something about working with batiks just inspires me so!
I love to be inspired by stripes and polka-dots. I love a quilt finished with a stripe binding.
BATIKS! Hands down! Tami In Denver
I love batiks! thank you! Wonderful quilts to vote for!
Jewel toned batiks always call to me!
Si que fue difícil votar esta vez.
Me quedaron afuera 3 o 4 talentos.
Vicki una bolsa de RILEY me espera sera con batiks?
Cariños.
I love most fabrics. I’m always on the look out for ones to make into a dress for my granddaughter.
Hand Dyes, Batiks, Reproductions – I love them all!
I love bright and bold fabric. Something with catchy patterns or colors! <3
I love batiks and fabrics with à gradient of colours.
A pretty landscape fabric sends me running to the sewing room, especially a pretty sky fabric.
I love ALL fabrics! But you put Civil War reproductive
prints in front of me and I definitely get sewing fever!!
Thanks for the chance to win!
Tonya in Wisconsin
Hand-dyes are FANTASTIC!! Oh, what I could to with such beautiful fabrics! Thank you for the chance to win.
I love batiks!
I was never one for most prints, but have developed a fondness for civil war prints. Tone on tones and batiks really get the mind running rampant
I like the Owl in Winter by Cynthia Zoller!
Owl in the winter gets my vote
I like soft country prints!
I find batiks fasinating and will fit in to many blocks.
Modern and 1930 for sure 🙂 Anything bright and bold!
