Oh my goodness! Three pounds of Loralie fabric would make a lot of cute & wonderful things for my four-year old granddaughter. A quilt would be the first thing, of course. Then, I can’t even begin to think of what I could do with it all. Hope I win.
I would love to make a quilt or a table runner!
What a fun giveaway–scraps are so fun!

I am going to attempt to start making a quilt and this would be perfect to get me started! Thank you for the generous giveaway!
This would be a true Blessing for me. We are raising our three grandchildren ages 7, 6, 4 they love it when I make them things. In September of 2007 I fell & broke my foot had to have surgery. I am just now getting out of a wheelchair because infection set in. I almost lost my leg. By the Grace of God it healed. Much to the surprise of my Doctor. Sorry to much information. LOL My husband is retired & I have tried to start Christmas. I am going to try to make lap Quilts for family that helped with the little ones & house work. My little ones have also asked for a quilt for their beds. I do tend to go on & on sorry. Anyway it would be wonderful to win.
God Bless,
Linda
Well a friend of mine is going through Chemo right now and a lap blanket, or a cute little quilted tote of Loralie would certainly cheer her up. Possibly both.

I would like to cover some cigar boxes I have been saving. I would fill them with candy and hand them out as stocking stuffers. Thanks for this fun giveaway!
I love the scrap giveaway idea so I would probably make some wall hangings or quilts for our church humanatarian projects to send to foreign countries or women’s shelters.
I would make some walker or wheel chair bags for my residents in a nursing home
I just thought of another great project, a quilt for a breast cancer patient or a child going through medical treatments.

I have a friend who showed me how to make cooling bands for the soldiers that they put around their heads or necks to keep cool. We could make lots of those and another idea would be to make a quilt for a cancer patient. Also our church group makes wall hangings and quilts for women’s shelters, orphanages, and the homeless. Those scraps could do a lot of good in lots of ways.
Thanks for sharing,
Sue
I would make a scrappy lap quilt for my little 93 yr old friend for whom I am a “friendly visitor” . I visit her in the nursing home once or twice a week and she loves nice bright colors. She also has a great sense of humor so I know she would enjoy this great fabric. I would use the flip and sew method so as much of the designs as possible would be visible. If I win there would be a very happy sweet little ladie who does not receive many treats………… Thank you for your consideration
OMG!!! Three pounds of fabric…I would make a patchwork jacket and matching totebag and purse to wear/carry. I could take all of these to my quilt guild/club meetings, quilt shows and Paducah. Then I would have to wear them into the American Sewing Machine store in St Charles to show Mike and his wonderful staff how much fun his contests are and what we can make with his Brother sewing machines!! Thanks for all of the fun
I have never entered a give away before. Maybe this will be lucky. I would make a baby quilt for a great-niece or nephew(we don’t know yet). After that, I’m sure I would get inspiration from the cloth and go from there
3 lbs. of Fabric scraps. Oh the dreaming has begun. What could’nt I make? Something for me this time. A really cool handbag that would make all my friends say Ohoooooo.
OMG – I would make a really cool lap quilt for me to use when I’m watching chick flicks on TV or DVDs!!! I’d be the envy of my quilt club!!!
I love free fabric and I would definitely make a quilt! Thanks for the nice giveaway.
:O] Sarah
I would make a scrappy wall hanging for my living room!
I could also make some unique cloth napkins. It’s been on my to-do list for a while now!
I will make a really pretty baby guilt.
A Loralie shower curtain would brighten up the bathroom! A curtain for the window and fabric trimmed towels would be cute, too!
Very good color mix. It catch eyes right away.
With these great fabrics I would make placemats for our Senior Center for them to use for their meals. The placemats would cheer-up the Seniors.
I would make quilts for the Prayers & Squares Ministry. And make myself a small quilt.
Think that great fabric would be great to make placemates for the Senior Center for their meals, to cheer-up the Seniors.
That fabric would be great to make quilts for the Prayers and Square Ministry.
Love her designs. In keeping with her off beat sense of style and humor, I would use the fabric to put together a totally wild jacket and matching purse. I would use some of her embroidery designs that coordinate with the fabric designs. I would also use some totally wild yarns and specialty threads to add some zing to the jacket. I would then make a one of a kind hat with feathers and fur to wear with the jacket and purse. In keeping with her style I would use bright and exciting colors (reds, purples, golds, magerntas and turquoise) to add punch to the whole ensemble. zaniness would prevail in my execution of my plan. If some of the cat fabrics were included in the mix, I would make a purse with a cat face embroidered on it and add a fake fur tail. the cat would have to have a bit of bling on his collar and fabulous chartreuse crystal eyes with glued on long fake eyelashes. The cat would be “A Cat with Pursonality and Style.” A cat Loralie would be proud of and a one of a kind ensemble I would wear with pride and strut my 64 year old stuff with style. Thank you for your consideration, Maureen
I’d make a baby blanket (or two)! Thanks for the chance.
Could use them for lots of patchwork items–handbag/room decor/and my daughter has been asking me for a blanket for her babies! thanks!
i would attempt to make a quilt for the first time ever!
I would make quilt and placemats for charity and a quilt for my family.
always crafting with fabric..love to win

I think I’d put together several baby quilts for friends. What a fun giveaway!
I could start by making tote bags or purses for my quilting friends or I could make a wall hanging for my niece or I could use some in a lap quilt for myself. The ideals are endless.
I have never made a quilt before, but I have always wanted to… this would really help me out!
I make wall-hanging type creations that I would love to use these scraps for. I create a design on graph paper…usually inspired by music…and then make it come alive with the fabric.
I’d make 4 doll quilts for my 4 girlies!
I need new placemats and napkins for my table! People think these are so interesting when they visit;)
