As I was cleaning and organizing my sewing room, I realized that I have more fabric scraps than I will EVER use! Scraps are great for so many projects, but I continue to accumulate more all the time and I am running out of closet space for them.
Want to take some off of my hands? Do I need to twist your arm?
I'll stuff a Priority Mail envelope full of scraps and mail it out to the winner of this giveaway!
Some of the pieces are designer (Amy Butler, Alexander Henry), others are vintage, and some are from fabrics I picked up at Joann's or Hobby Lobby. There are a few 5 inch squares, but most of the scraps are larger (think fat quarter size).In order to enter:

Love fabric.
I love your GAM idea! I currently have so many resolutions that one a month sounds perfect for accomplishing them--kind of like Benjamin Franklin's 13 virtues, right? I think, to start off, it would be to go to bed at a decent hour so that I can wake up before the baby and get some quality time in by reading the Bible!
I'd like to lose some weight...a typical New Year resolution. But I would really really like to do it!
I'd love to win the fabric scraps. My daughter just bought a new sewing machine and is giving me her old one! Yay! I have a machine that I can use to sew the scraps (if I win)!!
My resolution: quit making solutions! :) too much pressure, i prefer to just look forward to the new year as a goal to make as many of my hopes come true as possible.
Those pieces would be perfect for my art! I'd love to win :)
Thank you and happy new year!

I use to love to write when I was younger and many of my teachers all told me I should consider becoming a journalist. Once while I was in nursing school I remember telling one of them, "There isn't any money in Journalism." Oh the foolish things we say when we are young.
