It’s taken 3 years and 341 days, but we got here and this is the 500th post I’ve written for Thread Riding Hood! I figured I should make a big deal about it since I’m feeling like it’s kind of a big milestone. Crazy things have happened over the past almost-four years. I started this blog as a place to write about my sewing and it has turned into a real job. I’ve met amazing people, made great friends and worked with people I never thought I’d meet!
It’s been an amazing ride, thank you so much for coming along with me! #alongforthreadride

I’m giving away a scrappy fabric bundle of some of my favorite blues. The winner will also receive a copy of each of my PDF patterns! That includes the Forest Glen Satchel, Reusable Lunch Bag, Fabric Gift Bag patterns, Super Hero Cape and Cat-Eye Zipper Pouch pdf’s. Whew!
It was so hard to choose the bundle! I wanted to share some of my favorite fabrics, but didn’t have full fat quarters of all of them. Plus they didn’t all make a nice matchy bundle! So I started with a scrappy cut of my long-hoarded Tula Pink Octo Garden and chose some other favorite blues from there. Lots of them are fat quarter or 1/4 yard cuts. Also, being truly scrappy, some are pre-washed – but wanting to share my favorites, that’s the way they come! I also added a set of fabric quilt labels for good measure. I hope you like it!

CONGRATS TO YOU !!!
THANKS FOR YOUR NEAT BLOG!
Congratulations, let’s see imagine 500 quilt blocks. That’s one big quilt!
Congrats on your 500th post!! That superman cap is so stinking cute 🙂 🙂 :). It always makes me smile to see which posts do well, and which ones hear crickets. It’s never the ones we think 🙂
Congrats on your 500th post! I love your blog, so I’d say: Up to the next 500 😉
Yes, congrats. That cat eye pouch is a real winner.
I love the Cat-Eye Pouch! I made mine after I first saw your post on it and use it as my “pencil case” for work. It makes me smile every time I look at it on my desk.
I also refer back to your list of Canadian On-Line Fabric Shops whenever I am looking for something particular. I may have to admit that post was what started my online fabric shopping frenzy once I discovered the quality of the designer fabrics out there. Up until then I was only shopping for fabric at my local Fabricland. Now I am a “Designer Fabric-oholic” .
Congrats! I have been wanting to make that cat eye zipper pouch for a long time but still haven’t gotten to it.
Congrats in the 500! And that you have been able to make it your job! Always great do have a job one really likes and is able to work with and meet great people!
I’ll have to try the super hero cape and cat-eye zipper pouch!
Congratulations Sherri on your 500th post!
