Stitch Organic Give-away!

Since February is the month of *LOVE* I plan on spending the month sharing the love shown for Stitch! Stitch Organic is my first print collection with Robert Kaufman. Over the last year you've heard the news, seen the sneak peek, the big reveal, and followed me to Quilt Market. Finally at the end of 2011, Stitch shipped!

In honor of my "baby" being out in the world, I am hosting a give-away of this big stack of Stitch Organic Fat Quarters! That's 22 prints in all!


Over yonder in the sidebar-----> you'll see a new "Stitching for Stitch" Flickr photo pool. It would make my little heart sing to see projects that you've sewn using Stitch. I've gotten the ball rolling with some of my projects and a few new members have already joined me. Check it out for inspiration!

Also, for your clicking pleasure in the sidebar, is a button that will take you to a Stitch Info page. You'll see a slide show of the full collection plus links to shops that carry the fabric. I'm slowly building my stockist list, so if you are a shop (online or neighborhood) that carries Stitch, email me and I will add your shop to the list!


All right already...on with the give-away! (Since this is a big fat heavy stack, I'm limiting the give-away to US mailing address only!)

To enter, leave a comment before midnight EST, Friday February 10th, 2012. In your comment I would love to know: What kinds of prints do you gravitate towards? Florals? Geometrics? Modern? Traditional? Large scale? Ditsy prints? Bold colors? Muted palettes? Do tell!

Winner will be chosen randomly and notified via email, so be sure to leave contact info. Special thanks to Robert Kaufman for donating the fabric!

***Comments now closed! Winner will be notified via email. Thank you!***

  1. what a great give-away! I definitely gravitate toward large scale bold floral and geometric patterns. Ha, and I agree with Under the Willow above: a fabric store is like a candy shop!

  2. Love all the different fabric! How fabulous!

    I tend to gravitate towards more traditional fabric!

  3. I have a stack of yardage of Stitch next to me waiting to be whole-cloth free motion quilted! I am a lover of folk art inspired prints. Polish, Scandinavian, South American are some of my favorites. COLOR is a must! I search for prints that are coherent in a 7 inch square, that are easy to trace as I quilt. Some extra negative space is a big plus for sneaking in micro-stippling. I am excited to be using Stitch to launch my organic line this year.

  4. Let's see, I love traditional prints, florals and geometrics both bold and more subtle colors as well!

  5. I like prints that I can mix so that they look like a genuine scrap quilt.

    ReplyDelete
  6. I gravitate toward bold colors and prints. Sometimes, I have to restrain myself (yeah, right) and buy a solid here or there. I can't wait to buy Stitch!

    ReplyDelete
  7. I love any print that looks like it belongs in a Swedish fairytale. How's that for specific?

    ReplyDelete
  8. I love this collection! Thanks for offering a give-away. I find myself returning to large florals over and over again... in any and all color schemes, but usually cabbage roses and the like.

    ReplyDelete
  9. I'm a big fan of modern prints, but love a good mix!

  11. I love Modern Geometrics in bold colors

    ReplyDelete
  12. Geeezzz, I thought I had entered this giveaway, and then my daughter in Sweden told me about it, and I looked and cannot find my name. I love large-scale prints, bright bold colors, and geometrics such as dots and stripes to go with the large prints.

    ReplyDelete
  13. This is amazing and incredibly generous!
    When I choose fabric it really depends on my mood and the project I am preparing to make but I do tend to choose bold and funky over any other.
    I have been on the search for some nice organic fabric to start something I haven't tried yet which is sewing clothes for my toddler and her dolls and these fabrics would be perfect! Not only because of the designs but because my daughter has been an organic/green baby since birth :)

    ReplyDelete
  14. I own an earth friendly brand - Dandelion! We're looking for new opportunities using organic fabrics for children's toys! LOVE your prints!

    ReplyDelete
  15. Love natural hues and natural patterns with occasional splashes of bright colors.

  16. i love fabrics with a vintage feel. i am crazy about fabric in general though!

    ReplyDelete
  17. Recently I have really been enjoying bright fabrics and bolder prints, thanks for a wonderful giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  18. I love florals, polka dots, and vintage inspired prints. I like both muted and bold colors, depending on my mood and the season. :)

    ReplyDelete
  19. First of all I love all the patterns...the generosity & the fact that you go organic!
    I love the florals with big prints and your vintage styling. I so appreciate your designs. Thank you for continuing to push forward.
    Be well.. Sunshine & happiness. Kimm

    ReplyDelete
  20. I like me some nature inspired prints... with muted backgrounds that have variations in color to create depth.

    ReplyDelete
  21. I think it really comes down to an issue of color to me - it's the first thing I see. If the pattern showcases the colors well, chances are, it will be going home with me.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I love old timey patterns, like old florals, cute whimsical designs like old fashioned children (the kind with big heads and poofy diapers), and gingham!

    ReplyDelete
  23. I really just walk up and down the fabric isles and see what grabs my eye and holds my attention! So i guess its probably colors and combinations of colors that first grab me then the print. That being said i suppose florals and modern patterns in the right colors are my fav!
    Thanks for the giveaway!

  26. I love bright, bold colors, florals, and modern fabrics- large or small scale. Your Stitch collection is beautiful! Congrats!

    ReplyDelete
  27. I love the vintage look and color and so much more. The look of the color combos in this bundle are just the thing I love. In fact it would be the perfect birthday gift for my 60th birthday on February 10. Thank for all your inspirations, Betz! valiegal

    ReplyDelete
  28. I love florals and I am a sucker for paisley. Seems so old school, but I love the look. I like deep colors. If I want some something differentI have to take my daughter fabric shopping with me, she helps me step out of the box and choose fun fabrics!

    ReplyDelete
  29. I think it really depends on the project. Although have recently made some purchases just because I loved the prints (Catkin, and some deco-style dragonflies) and don't have the slightest clue what I'll do with them. I love batiks, subtle textured "solids", and almost anything with stars, moons, or other celestial objects.

    Thanks for the chance to win. Stitch looks awesome!

    ReplyDelete
  30. Your line is beautiful!! I love modern prints, usually in bright bold colors, and I have a special place in my heart for stripes. Anything that reminds me of candy makes me happy. :)

    I'm a "take no prisoners" kinda woman so I like bold prints.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Thanks so much for the lovely giveaway and good luck with this new project.

    I gravitate more towards the cool spectrum, and I love modern color combinations such as grey/mustard or aqua/orange

  33. Large graphic florals or small ditsy prints are usually my favorites. I'm always trying to expand my horizons, but I'm a bit traditional at heart!

    ReplyDelete
  34. I love to work with small scale classic prints. Throw in some large scale florals for fun!

    ReplyDelete
  35. wow how great is this... i tend to love prints in bold colors.

    What isn't to love about beautiful
    fabric. I love them all. Bright,
    bold, soft and all for me to treasure.
    Jody

    ReplyDelete
  38. At the moment, I like brighter colors and geometric patterns, but I'll admit that I'm fickle--it's often whatever beautiful fabric or print I've seen last.

    Thanks so much for the giveaway! Your fabric is gorgeous!

    ReplyDelete
  39. I love toile in any color/pattern - not sure why but haven't met a toile I didn't like ; ) If I win this stack, can I make the stich along tote out of it or does that take larger bits of fabric? Congratulations! Jill

    ReplyDelete
  40. The fabrics are just beautiful! I tend to gravitate toward florals, but also love bold colors!

    ReplyDelete
  41. I love big bold prints but I also love medium size ones in moderate colors. I go back and forth depending on my mood.

    THe fabric line you show here is very swoon worthy.

    ReplyDelete
  42. I tend to go for bright, fun prints the most but I also like Little House on the Prairie-type prints.

    ReplyDelete
  43. I love geometrics and modern...but then I also love to add a little whimsy and fun into things too! You've created a beautiful fabric line!!

    ReplyDelete
  44. I see myself as a traditional girl. But I have been making myself buy outside of my comfort box. It makes it fun!!
    I love your new line! Thanks for the opportunity!

  45. Love modern smaller prints with geometric designs (LOVE circles) or adorable little animals. My husband makes fun of me for being a magnet to cute little fat animals with beady eyes...I just can't resist. I also love any fabric that is gray...I'm obsessed right now with gray fabrics and I think I see one in that bundle! Thanks for the chance.

    ReplyDelete
  46. i definitely migrate toward bold, modern, geometric prints with some great small scale, monochrome accent fabrics too. i love this collection!

    ReplyDelete
  47. Wow do I love this fabric! You picked my favorite colors! Or maybe just the brightness of the colors? Not sure, but I can't even say which one is my favorite!

    ReplyDelete
  48. Organic fabric is hard to find in my area. So glad to see some (& so pretty at that!). I love vintage mini florals in reds, pinks, and baby blues.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Hei!
    I love all kind of big and geomatric and colorful fabrics.

    I'm from Europa and I love to win that give away. So I would pay for the shipping - if I win *fingers crossed*

  50. I like medium hue with bright colors if that makes sence. Sort of why I never have lights or darks in my stash. The prints well ditsy as you put it to medium scale, geometric,traditional, modern, some floral. Thanks for the opportunity to win a fab stack!

    ReplyDelete
  51. It depends on my mood. I love all kinds of prints.

    ReplyDelete
  52. These are wonderful!

    I am still a novice sewer. I gravitate to interesting solids/tonals and more novelty prints: usually large scale and themed, animals, knitting, ocean, etc. But these look super awesome and will be definitely something I'll buy if it is available at my local shop.

    ReplyDelete
  53. I love bright colors! If it pops off the fabric in some way, I am IN!

  54. oh my goodness.... I saw your prints on fabrics.com yesterday (loved them!)

    ReplyDelete
  56. I like more modern, non-flowery prints. I got a couple yards of a few of the Stitch prints-can't wait to sew with them!

    ReplyDelete
  57. I initially was going to say I like muted colors, but I am so indecisive, I really think my fabric choices reflect my mood at the time I am buying.

    ReplyDelete
  58. What an awesome giveaway! I love all fabrics and the print/colors depend on what room I'm in. Here lately though, I've like muted, simple prints.

    kkrisdan28@aol.com

    ReplyDelete
  59. Very generous givaway! And such beautiful fabrics!

    I personally go for geometric prints and small florals.

    Thanks!

  62. I love bold, bright prints; they add a real pop of color to a room. But, I also like stripes and other patterned prints. It just depends on the mood, I guess! :)

    ReplyDelete
  63. I am mostly drawn to bright and rich colors, so this set of prints is intensely awesome for me! Super excited to know it's out there!

    ReplyDelete
  64. Hello Betz,
    I like the muted traditional fabrics and the bold bright moderns, go figure! LOVE your line :)
    Suzanne

    ReplyDelete
  65. Truly I think I gravitate toward them all for different purposes. For myself I prefer blues and greens. For my kiddos bright bold colors. For my house a more muted palette. I didn't make it easy for you now did I.

    ReplyDelete
  66. What a beautiful collection! I love traditional prints, polka dots and stripes, and bold florals.

    ReplyDelete
  67. I just love fabric of any kind! Seriously, traditional and modern seem to be my most often chosen for my stash.

    ReplyDelete
  68. A peek at my stash reveals a love for deep or bright colors, tone-on-tone, large floral or abstract prints, birds and flowers, and a preference for off-white backgrounds.
    The stitchery references in your fabrics are charming! i love them!

    ReplyDelete
  69. I gravitate towards black and white fabrics and primary colors! Since I end up making a lot of baby quilts, the primary colors are always a hit!

    ReplyDelete
  77. I like more contemporary fabrics with medium to small scale florals and geometrics in almost any color. However, I'm not a fan of pink - more into blues, greens, browns, and jewel tones as in your stack.

    ReplyDelete
  78. I love these prints. I have lately been gravitating to the florals.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  87. I definitely gravitate toward blenders, single color pallets, and anything GREEN!

    ReplyDelete
  88. What a fantastic giveaway! My taste sort of waver but right now I lean more towards geometric and floral.

    ReplyDelete
  89. I like prints that are small and fun.. I am starting to like small florals which is quite odd for me! Congratulations on your line!

    ReplyDelete
  90. Of late, I've been leaning toward whimsical japanese prints - just made a purse from older echino viewmaster reel fabric. I really like bolder colors, geometrics.

    ReplyDelete
  91. I am such a traditional purist but am trying so hard to evolve into loving more then my regular go to/make a quilt fabric. I am really liking the bold color combinations and the big florals are calling me more and more. I have several large paisleys in my stash and feel I will have an epiphany soon on what I want to make with them. Thanks for a nice giveaway. Your fabric rocks

    ReplyDelete
  92. I love all kinds of fabrics...dainty florals, bold colors, monocromatic, muted colors... I buy what what my eye is drawn to.

    ReplyDelete
  99. I really like modern prints, but ones that still harken back to a traditional style--less Marimekko, more Josef Frank. And I LOVE these prints you've created! I hope I win, but even if I don't, they still need to become a quilt in my house!

    ReplyDelete
  100. Woot! This is fabulous, lady! I am lovin' these colors and, of course, the content. I tend to gravitate towards bright colors and large scale geometric prints. The choice also depends a bit on the project. I often lean towards muted pastels and primaries for baby items. I am quickly learning I need more small scale, though, to use as complements and fillers. Thanks for the fabulous giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  101. small prints, funky prints (anything with campers) or vintage-y art nouveau.

    ReplyDelete
  102. I love modern, vintage, and everything in between! I love your new fabric line, I just saw it at the fabric store the other day, they only had three prints, but it's beautiful! And I especially love that it's organic!

    ReplyDelete
  103. I graviate towards florals of all sizes. I bought some Liberty in LA about 20 years ago for about 9$ a yard. I made a dress and gave it away. I didn't know what I had! Yikes. I could wear it now and I wish I had kept it!

    ReplyDelete
  104. I love large scale but hate to cut into it. I like bright,small, geometric prints and don't forget solids. *LOVE* your latest!

    ReplyDelete
  105. I love all the modern prints, especially when paired with muted colors. This combo leaves more visual space for the shape of the finished project or embellishment.

    ReplyDelete
  106. Geometrics and bold colors, definitely! So exciting!

    ReplyDelete
  107. These are beautiful! Thanks for the chance to win them.

    ReplyDelete
  127. My eyes are attracted to the combination of colors more than the size of the print or the style of the print. I tend to gravitate to cool colors.

    ReplyDelete
  128. I think I would have said geometrics or florals before looking at your collection, and truthfully there is not one piece of fabric there that I don't like! I like the stitched look ones a lot, they remind me of some of my favorite scrapbook papers. Thanks for offering this giveaway.

    ReplyDelete
  129. Those are so lovely! Right now I'm realizing that my tastes are now skewing more modern, such a change from the way I usually approach patterns. I was a floral girl for so long.............

    ReplyDelete
  130. I tried posting earlier, but I don't think it went through. I love these fabrics - so cute! I tend to prefer bright, vintage-inspired fabrics. When making clothes for my little boy, I like to use some menswear fabrics as well as bold and colorful prints. My contact email is abbey.franklin @ yahoo dot com. Hope I win!

    ReplyDelete
  131. Love the fabrics, love to win!

    I like the cool colors...or maybe the warm ones. How about those brilliant pinks to make that project bag? yes! Those!

  133. I am not kidding when I say that I've been eyeing this collection since its debut, and have the perfect fat quarter quilt pattern in mind to put these to good use. The stitched flowers and patchwork prints are my favorites. This is an amazing giveaway - thank you, and Robert Kaufman too! If my name is chosen (I hope! I hope!) please contact me through my blog. :)

  136. Congrats on your beautiful new collection of fabric! Love the bright, clear colors and modern prints! kewilson7@hotmail.com

    ReplyDelete
  137. Beautiful colors/combinations & patterns! I usually gravitate towards retro 50s & 60s prints, leaf patterns, modern florals, batiks, tonal groupings. I have recently been attracted to bolder color groupings - after too many years of muted color combos. I'd love to use your fabrics to make something for my 4 yo daughter, perhaps a comforter cover/quilt or some fun dolls/stuffed animals.
