This giveaway is courtesy of Craft de Ville. This shop hails from Montreal, one of only a few that I know are located in Eastern Canada. They have an easy-to-shop website. Lots of quilting cottons plus notions and patterns, along with lots of things for crafting like beads and embroidery hoops. They even have a vintage section with gorgeous buttons and vintage bobbins for sale. I’m looking forward to spending more time in their shop soon!
“Craft de Ville was started by Stacy Pomerleau and Betsy Lipes in 2012 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. We are an online shop stocking a variety of supplies for a variety of crafts from beading to sewing. We try to stock items that are not found in other shops. We have a buyer who travels to India and Thailand for unique beads. We also support our local modern quilt guild as well as being inspired by them! We offer a local shipping option for Montreal customers (in person pick up) and are open to special orders for our customers too. We like being craft enablers.” ~ Craft de Ville
Stacy’s Favorite Sewing Tool

“It may be silly to love a needle case, but the Needle Twister is a great thing! I love having a variety of hand sewing needles in my sewing kit. Well designed (it won an award!) it is easy to use and keeps my needles safe.” ~ Stacy |


Craft de Ville is generously giving away 4 True Colours charm packs to one lucky winner! One pack each of True Colours from Heather Bailey, Amy Butler, Joel Dewberry and Jenean Morrison. These colours match so well – I’d love to see a simple quilt made with a mix all of them! (The prints are pictured together above – aren’t they pretty?!)

Thanks to YOU Week – Giveaway No. 11! Thank YOU for coming #alongforthreadride. Be sure you enter each of the 14 giveaways. (Find out more, link to the giveaways and follow along so you don’t miss anything!)
This giveaway is courtesy of Flare Fabrics. This shop stocks contemporary fabrics and is a huge source for batiks – plus notions and supplies! They have so much more, though. I just took a peek at their Denim/Canvas selection and I want #allthethings! I first worked with them to make an Ella top for last year’s Indiesew Spring Collection, and it’s been in rotation in my closet ever since.
“At Flare Fabrics we offer premium quality batiks and contemporary fabrics for quilting and today’s sewists. Each fabric is hand picked for quality and design. Whether you’re a professional quilter or beginner exploring the wonderful world of quilting and sewing, you’re sure to find a fabric to suit your tastes. We specialize in batiks from Indonesia and bold, contemporary fabrics from top designers. We’re sure you’ll find a fabric to spark your imagination so you can create one-of-a-kind sewing projects.” ~ Flare Fabrics

Lately I’ve been doing more of my own quilting but I’m still a beginner – so I like to mark my quilt tops with my quilt design. I tried a few different products – and then found the Collins Air Erase Vanishing Purple Fabric Marker! It truly does work – it totally disappears from the quilt top without leaving any residue or trace. Just watch the time – it can start to fade within 30 minutes, depending on the fabric! |

Flare Fabrics is giving away this gorgeous jelly roll (40 2 1/2″ strips!) – Cool L’s Modern Collection from Lecien Fabrics of Japan. This amazing blend of cool colours would be amazing pieced into a quick strip quilt. Or a quilt-as-you-go herringbone, or (let’s be honest) like a million other projects!

Alanna’s Favorite Sewing Tool
I don’t have a lot of time to sew anymore, but the one tool I can’t live without right now would be my Olfa rotary cutter! This tool gets a lot of mileage as I use it to cut all my orders and monthly subscriptions. I would highly recommend investing in a rotary cutter if you don’t own one.


Fridays Off Fabric Shop is giving away the August Full Stash bundle. This is 12 piece fat quarter bundle curated for Le Club – Fridays Off’s monthly subscription.The bundle fabrics are a surprise – so much fun to get in your mailbox!

This giveaway is courtesy of Fabric Spot. This is one of the first online shops I found and it has possibly become the largest in Canada! Fabric Spot tends to carry full lines of gorgeous fabrics – and they have solids to match from their wide-ranging stock.

We still use them, since they make amazing tote bags – the quality fabric has held up for almost 6 years now!
