Well, I was thinking of making my 2 older boys a quilt each for their beds from recycled mens shirts ( you know, stripes and checks) but some of your delicious fabric would be welcomed most warmly into the projects!!!!

Well I'm thinking of making baby blankets for all the new babes that have come into my life this past year! (friends and family LOL) There must have been something in the water!
Is the giveaway open to international fans? I'm making underwear!
Fabulous giveaway! I love the prints!
I have a baby due for arrival just before Thanksgiving, so my gift-making this year is going to be limited. I am sticking to simple, quick gifts like pot holders and little zippered pouches. Possibly knitted hats for the kiddos.
This is the winter of making people scarves. Lots of old sweaters to felt and so many great fabrics to work with to make an endless array of glorious scarves!!!
I'm a newbie at sewing but really enjoying it and hoping to do more. I'm hoping to sew a dress for my neice, some pants for my 3 year old son, maybe make a quilt for my upcoming February baby...so many things!!
Also I LOVE that fabric so I hope i win ;)
Oh my goodness . . . I wish I knew!! Usually, the only gifts I end up making are for my kids' teachers. Well, this year, they both have male teachers and I'm completely at a loss!! Hoping inspiration strikes soon . . .
I have an "order" for some doll clothes from one of my granddaughters, but I have my thinking cap on for the rest of my gifts
Thought about quilted tote bags this year ..... (everyone loves them) ---- But I think I am going to make some small zipper bags in a variety of sizes to meet everyone's needs ---- from make up to pencils and art supplies, sewing supplies, and CD and DVDs .... so everyone in the family could use one!
i have been thinking of making a flower pillow i saw a tutorial for at cluck cluck sew.
i think i can crank a few out before the holidays! thanks for a chance at your gorgeous fabrics.
I usually make food items for the holidays. But some pretty bags to use as wrapping for bottles of wine are on my to do list too.
I'm really stressing about what to make for gifts this years, since I've already given pretty much everyone quilts and knitted items. I might go small this year and just do ornaments.
I am trying to make some small toys, pajama pants, and ornaments! Hopefully I'll get them all done!
Great giveaway!
Well our holiday (Eid Al-Adha) is in November, so I am already starting to make some toys for the kiddos, and a sweater for my husband - hope I can finish that on time!
I am in quilting mode right now and I'm just about finished with the current project. Those fabrics would be perfect for a new quilt.
This year, I plan on making lots of cute organic appliqued bodysuits, burp cloths, and cuddle blankets for all the little ones that have arrived among my friends and family. I absolutely love Cloud9 Fabrics!!
Hello there, thanks for the great giveaway. For holiday gifts I am thinking of making hats.
Thanks so much for the chance to win. I love this fabric line! For Christmas I'm thinking of making sets of cloth napkins to encourage people to be a little more green in 2011.
Thanks again!
