Leap Year Traveling Stash Giveaway!

Hello!  :)

This is Leap Year box! It's a fairly new Traveling Stash box that started this year. It only travels on the 29th of each month. I won it from Miss Mary @ Lillian's Stitches. Here's the box . . . 

Here's a closer view of what I found inside . . . 

Books and a pattern!

Larger pieces of fabric! Some charm square sets! A charm pack of Moda "Rooftop Garden"!

Lots of fat quarters + larger pieces of fabric!

More fat quarters + larger pieces of fabric!

And even more fat quarters + larger pieces of fabric!

And yes even more fat quarters + larger pieces of fabric! This box has lots of fabric!  :)

This is what I decided to keep for myself . . . 

Mainly fat quarters and a couple of pieces that are a little larger.

This is what I'm adding to the box . . . 

A 12-piece fat quarter set of "Christmas Traditions" by Windham Fabrics! Some cuts (all fat quarters or larger) of 3 Christmas prints, Ghastlies and a fall print! 3 spools of Sulky thread! And a 4-1/2" square ruler!

Traveling Stash Giveaway!

The giveaway is now closed!  :)

Hello!  :)

I finally got around to taking pictures of the Traveling Stash box I won from Ella @ Throw a Wench in the Works. I'm so sorry that it took me so long! Here's the box . . . 

I've included lots of pictures of what I found inside.

These are some decor weight fabrics, seersucker that would be cute for a little boys jumpsuit, and some vinyl coated or laminated fabric (I'm not sure what it's called). The laminated pieces aren't very big but I'm keeping them in as I always wondered what they were like and now that I've seen them I know. Also because they would be perfect for lining some zipped pouches.

These are all larger pieces. Some older, some newer.

Still more larger pieces. Lots of variety.

More fabric in fat quarter size or larger.

Some blocks and a charm pack of "Prayer Flag" by April Cornell for Moda.

These are the misc. items in the box. Some button kits, blanket binding, turning sticks, pins, etc.

Then there are the books and patterns. There is one larger book in great condition. It wasn't my cup of tea but maybe it's yours.

Now here's what I decided to keep for myself . . . 

Some fabrics and one apron/pot holder pattern.

This is what I'm adding to the box . . .

A "Santa's Helper" pattern by Cleo and Me, a "Cape Ann" charm pack by Liesl Gibson for Oliver + S for Moda, a charm pack of Vintage Sheets, and some fat quarters of fabrics by Henry Glass, Clothworks and Michael Miller.

Rules:

1. Be an active blogger. Post about receiving the box and the giveaway on your blog in a timely manner.

2. There's a note in the box that logs where the box has been. Please add your info and place the note back in the box.

3. There's a list of Rules and Guidelines in the box. Please read and follow these and return the list to the box.

4. You may take anything you like from the box. Just replace every item with comparable quilt shop quality items equal to the amount taken.

5. Ship the box to the next person in a reasonable amount of time.

6. Due to the amount of postage shipping is only within the USA.
