This giveaway  is courtesy of Flare FabricsThis 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

Marlene’s Favorite Sewing Tool

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!
