$100 Hart's Fabric Giveaway!


Great news, readers! Hart's Fabric is offering one lucky reader a $100 gift card (with shipping included, no less). They have a lovely selection of garment fabrics online. All you need to do to enter is leave a comment saying which fabric you'd like to use for your next apparel project.

Here, I'll go first!

How about some floral silk knit for a drapey bow-neck top?



Or maybe a 50s-style suit in some iris-colored Shetland wool?



Ooh, or even a cute little dress or pajamas in this tea-cup print linen.


Isn't this fun? Okay, it's your turn! All countries are eligible. Please just make sure I'm somehow able to find your e-mail address (either by linking to your profile or by leaving it in your comment). I'll choose a winner at the end of the day on Wednesday.

Good luck, my dears!

    It's so cold here, I would buy a nice wool bouclé. But I'm tempted by their lovely silks, too. So many choices!

    What a great giveaway!

    Ooh! What a fabulous giveaway! I've been wanting to stitch a suit with vintage flair, so I'm crushing on the Grey Fashion and Apparel Fabric Wool and Silk Blend . It's incredibly yummy-looking. I can envision a fitted suit paired with stilettos. ☺ Happy Friday!

    I've been hooked on geometric prints for everything from home dec to fashion fabric... So it'd probably be the Digital Printed Geometric Silk Satin or Geometric Abstract Sheer Fabric Magenta and Cream!

    I've been bookmarking fabrics on Hart's all week, what a timely give away!

    Hello!
    I actually made a big Harts fabric order a few weeks back and got some lovely skils and rayons, but now I've realized I need lining fabric! So I'd love to be able to stock up on some rayon lining, or maybe even silk...http://www.hartsfabric.com/habutai-silk-fabric61025.html.
    Happy Friday, everyone!

    what lovelies to choose from! I think I could probably get enough for 2 small projects with a gift of that size! The first I found was the "Yarn-Dyed Cotton Shirting Fabric Plaid Purple" which would make a nice new shirt for my husband. As for me I couldn't decide between a new little black dress made of the "Black Cotton Dotted Swiss" or some of the "Designer Maroon Plaid Fashion and Apparel Fabric Cotton Blend" for a shirtwaist dress.

    Oooh! Just the perfect giveaway. I have a really hard time choosing with such a huge selection - I'm so jealous of you americans with so many great fabrics to choose from.
    The voiles would be lovely for a blouse, I'm tempted by the red virgin wool for a nice coat, but with a new job in a nice office I have to go with the solid red interlock (http://www.hartsfabric.com/red-cotton-interlock-64591.html) which would turn into a hot-hot wiggle office dress a'la Joan from Mad Men.

    I've been wanting to make a winter coat that I can proudly wear to work. At the same time, I saw and fell in love with their "Blue Chevron Silk Chiffon Fabric". It would make a lovely 70's tunic.

    How exciting!
    I love Harts and have had my eye on the Tree People Silk Georgette for some time now. It's strangely beautiful!

    I don't even have to shop the whole website--I want that Shetland wool!! I'm starting a new job, and could use the mojo of a new suit I've made myself. I work in the arts, so no one would even blink at a vivid purple suit.

    Wow, what an incredibly tough choice! I'm tempted by all of those lovely cotton prints, although they may have to wait for spring... same goes for the bamboo rayon striped jersey... I'd have to go with the black&white polka dot corduroy. Or the grey&white pin dot flannel for a pair of jammies? I hate decisions...

    I can NOT decide...I might makd a pretty summer dress out of double gauze, or slim pants from ponte knot, or a cute skirt from ruffle fabric. Lovely giveaway!

    I would make Violette Field Threads Vivienne Skirt with Hart's Hemp Organic Cotton Denim Wave Fabric and the Off White Cotton Pearl Eyelet Fashion Fabric for the inset ruffles. I just recently discovered hart' and think they have a fabulous selection, but haven't ordered anything from them as yet.

    Oh my goodness. I would love to give a cute little vintage dress pattern the Green Forest Hills Cotton Voile Fabric by Anna Maria Horner or even the Retro Cotton Lawn Fabric Yellow Floral. That might be nice for the Bombshell dress from your class! Oh! The ideas are just rolling in now! Fun!

    OOh, lots to tempt a fabricoholic!

    I think the red/navy rayon floral is cool, but i can't tell from the description if it's a knit or a woven. If a woven, I'd get it and make a 30s-style dress.

    Or a shift-style blouse from the black/white polka dot silk cotton lawn....

    and what about the pleated Burda sew-along pleated skirt in the Echino viewfinder linen print!

    Also love the vintage tablecloths!
