| Posy Quilt 40 x 52 in. |
How about that Lotta Jansdotter for the backing?! It spoke to me from the bolt and I just had to bring it home - I love how it has both the bright and white of the quilt front.
Favourite block.
And now for my Sew,Mama,Sew Giveaway! This is my first time participating in this giveaway and I post this on the morning of the day I am flying across the continent to go on a great adventure. I am meeting 3 friends in New York City and I am super, bursting with excitement. Sooooo, I thought that a really fun thing to giveaway would be some fabric straight from the Big Apple.
Some time ago, Chrissie, of Made by Chrissie D, emailed me a fabulous list of fabric stores in NYC to visit (thanks, Chrissie!!!) and while I perused one of the store websites I found this undeniably amazing fabric....

| Fabric photos from The City Quilter website |
...and this amazing fabric is from the 'City Collection', made by The City Quilter in, you guessed it - New York City. I am going to bring home 3 fat quarters (depending on which ones they have in stock, of course) of this fabric to share with one of you, international entries welcome !
All you have to do is:
1. Comment on this post. I would love it if you left me a comment telling me about a great adventure that you have been on or would like to go on.
2. Followers get 2 entries. Leave me a second comment telling me you are a follower. New followers welcome!

Wow what a great giveaway! My greatest adventure was when I traveled to Belgium with my hubby a few years ago. BUT I would LOVE to have some of this NYC fabrics, because I grew up in the Big Apple, but have not been back there in ___ years. Thanks for this fabulous giveaway.

ReplyDeleteMy biggest adventure was working in Vietnam for the summer... Amazing!

ReplyDeleteI've been looking forward to seeing the finished Posy Quilt. It's so lovely and fresh. As for my greatest adventure, my sister and I went to Australia to visit our family (we live in Poland). It was more than 10 years ago and it was the first time we ever travelled by plane - started big, haven't we?
ReplyDeleteI'm a follower of your blog :)
ReplyDeleteThose are fantastic fabrics! The travel adventure I'd most like to go on would be to visit Italy. I'm also really interested in photography and I suspect I'd just get lost. Enjoy your trip! :)

ReplyDeleteI am a new follower
ReplyDeleteA trip to New York City with a really great friend was my favorite. It rained pretty much the whole time, but it was still an amazing trip.
ReplyDeleteGoing to Italy with my extended family a couple summers ago was definitely an adventure. My brother and I pulled older family members off the wrong subway train a few too many times for my comfort. Thanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteTaking my daughter to London for a whirlwind 5 day breeze through London for Junior year in High School- we barely slept- and had a glorious time:)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the lovely giveaway opp- beautiful fabrics!
Now following your blog!
ReplyDeleteYou will love this shop and they have many NY and NYC fabrics. I would love to spend a month in Hawaii!
ReplyDeleteMy trip of all time was going alone to a top notch spa called Miraval in Tucson, Arizona. It was fun and had lots of group activities, both during the day and at night. I remember the hot rock massage and prickly pear creams. Using all my frequent flyer miles was well worth it. We still use my "Life in Balance" tea cup they gave guests. alternate email mlwright29(at)hotmail(dot)com
ReplyDeleteI went to New York City a few years ago for the first time - it was great! I loved getting up to Long Island to go canoeing and eating a picnic lunch from this great Italian grocery store. This year I'm headed to Chicago, Cleveland (home!), Washington D.C. and Gettysburg for the 150th anniversary of the battle. Quite a road trip!

ReplyDeleteSpent a month in Australia many years ago. Went to a sheep farm and snorkelling at the Great Barrier Reef. A great adventure.
ReplyDeleteMy great adventure was driving from MN to Alaska and then living there for 17 years!

ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win. Pretty fabric!!
I have been to Hawaii with my sister, when we were both in our early 20s. We got up in the middle of the night to be toted to the top of a dormant volcano and then bicycle down the mountainside for the rest of the day. I'm ready to try some adventure with my DH.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm a new follower.
ReplyDeleteMy greatest adventure was to Maui! It was way more than I ever expected and dream of it often!
ReplyDeleteI have sailed on the tallship Hawaiian Chieftain for weeks at a time. They have a two week trainee program that anyone can try! historicalseaport.org
ReplyDeletemy best adventure so far was 10 days in London last summer with my hubby celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary!
ReplyDeleteI have worked on some excellent archaeological sites in Bolivia and Ecuador. I am sure you can imagine the adventures of living in rural South America working in the summers! I am always going on odd adventures for work these days too, although less exotic locales.

My favorite adventure was last year my husband and I took a week through Kentucky with a couple stops in mind. We did not get on any expressways nor did we eat at any chain restaurants. Really got to know the territory!
ReplyDeletean adventure I would like to go on: I would like to hike Mt. Washington, the highest mountain in my little corner of the world :)
ReplyDeleteI've been to Italy and it was so wonderful, I'd love to go back. Beautiful quilt and fun fabric giveaway!

ReplyDeleteI would love to go hawaii..still haven't been! I want to go hiking there!
ReplyDeletedazzlingshorty(at)yahoo(dot)com
Your Posy quilt is so pretty! I love that each background is a different fabric.....adds to the colourful 'scrappy' look! Now as to my favourite holiday destination.....spending a lifetime road tripping to various towns, cities, states in Australia has been a delight! But.....I am soooooo jealous that your next holiday destination is The Big Apple. I have always wanted to go there......to visit all those quirky shops, the garment district, perhaps find a treasure or two at the flea markets, drink in all the sights, sounds and bustle of 'the city that never sleeps".......perhaps one day.....if I am a very good girl!!
ReplyDeleteI follow you on BL
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance! I was in Chile and Argentina a few years back - GREAT time and I can't wait to go back!
ReplyDeleteI randomly decided to go and live and work in Austria almost on a whim. I found a job in just two weeks and was off. best six months of my life! :D
ReplyDeletejust got back from peurto rico and got caught in torrential rains in the rain forest. was well worth the experience
ReplyDeleteI lived in New Delhi last year with my fiance who was going to graduate school there. It was definitely an adventure and I loved it. Thanks for the chance to win some gorgeous fabric! cherney.b(at)gmail

Wow, reading all these comments make me realise how boring and un-adventurous my life is. My biggest adventure has been hiking around Dove Lake in Tasmania (and I promise it was a well worn track and very level. Officially rated as a beginner trail :-/) lol.

I feel a little weird saying that I have never been on a great adventure. Unless you count motherhood :) I am a homebody and don't transition well. I would like to travel SOMEWHERE when my kids are a little more grown, but we'll see, ha.
ReplyDeleteMy great adventure came when I won a Caribbean cruise, my sister had to back out at last minute so I ended up going alone. Alone on a gorgeous ship and stopping at a few ports and exploring new places. It was great, I made some friends, tried foods that I have never tried before and had experiences that I never had before. I ice-skated and surfed for the first time on a ship in the middle of the ocean.

ReplyDeleteOh those are wonderful! My favorite adventure? Probably climbing a pyramid in Mexico, which is now no longer open to the public. It was a scary climb I'll tell you!
ReplyDeleteMy family and I visited Japan a few years ago. It was amazing.
ReplyDeleteLast year we wnet on an epic road trip and visited dozens of National Parks, Historic Sites, and Monuments! Super fun.

My husband and I are planning a trip to Munich for Oktoberfest this year... just a guess but I am pretty sure this will turn into quite the adventure!
ReplyDeleteMy biggest travelling adventure has to be my trip to India. The driver on our safari was CRAZY. When he told you to sit down, he meant it! We saw wild tigers and watched the sun rise over the hills, so it was worth the heart racing jeep ride.
ReplyDeleteNew GFC follower.
ReplyDeleteGreat fabric!! We had a wonderful family vacation in Germany where we travelled all over the country seeing the most amzing things - I would love to take another European vacation someday. Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteAs a military family, we've lived in Europe & Asia and travelled all over (London/Paris/Tokyo/Rome/Madrid/Beijing...). But my 11 year old is more excited about our upcoming summer trip to New York City than anywhere else we've ever been. Who knows why??? This fabric would be perfect - and if you have time to share the names of the stores, I would be most grateful. Thanks! Hope the travel was great.
ReplyDeleteMy great adventure would be to go back to Europe and see it on my own, not with a tour group (was with my church choir). We literally jogged through the Louvre to see the Mona Lisa, and missed everything else.
ReplyDeleteCant wait to go to the beach this summer!
ReplyDeletei haven't traveled too much, but i loved camping in the adirondacks. we stayed on an island only accessible by canoe. that was an adventure for me!

ReplyDeleteA favorite adventure of mine was going to the Winter Olympics in Vancouver, BC a couple years ago! Took the train to Canada, then took light rail into the city, then other light rail and buses to the various venues (Women's Curling and Women's Hockey, great fun!) and then spent a day walking around town, being part of the GIGANTIC crowds, seeing the Olympic Flame, eating new foods, talking with so many strangers, experiencing Vancouver at its best ... oh I have such memories! And of course I bought a Tim Horton's Olympic special donut. Maple leaf sprinkles! :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is when my husband and I went to europe for 3 weeks. I can't wait to go back
ReplyDeletewhat fun fabrics! have a great trip. id love to back pack thru europe when our kids are a little older. ha! i say that like it would be 'easy' but im well aware of what a chore it would be...im up for the challenge though!
ReplyDeleteNot too adventurous but we are going on our first cruise this fall. First time for the kids to leave the country though.
ReplyDeleteWe're going to wait a couple of years until everyone is well and truly potty trained, then we're going to rent an RV and drive from Toronto to PEI. I want my girls to see the ocean. :)
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a little kid I used to dream about going camping all over the country by myself, but I thought it would be too scary and I would never really be able to do it... then I got older, and braver, and I traveled the country by myself! I camped in Big Sur and up and down the west coast and I stayed with family and friends all over the country. It was the best adventure, crammed into just 3 months, ever!
ReplyDeleteYes, I want a grand adventure! Does that count as an entry? ;) No big travel escapes recently, but I always love visiting new places and exploring. Hope you have lots of fun.
ReplyDeleteNew fan! Thanks for the giveaway... and the quilt is awesome. ~ Carey
ReplyDeleteOh these are so great - and I love your quilt you finished!
ReplyDeleteI like to think that each day is an adventure - and it is, as a parent - haha! I also think of the time while I was in grad school in Chicago as an adventure. I would love to go back there and have more adventures!

ReplyDeleteI have to say, a trip to New York was one of my favourite adventures! Regular trips to Banff, Jasper and then on To Vancouver and Vancouver Island are all wonderful adventure trips, too. Since we live in that area, they're the usual adventures for us but if I lived far from here, I would have it high on my list of things to do.
ReplyDeleteI would love to go to Japan! My old roommate moved back there so I could visit her and I think I would bring an extra suitcase for fabric. I love Japanese fabric!
ReplyDeleteI like driving around without a map just to see where I'll end up!
ReplyDeleteMy great adventure is o go to Walt Disney World. Have always wanted to go there, my boys promised that one day they will ake me even if they have to push me in a wheelchair.
ReplyDeleteOh goodness! I LOVE this fabric!! I went to NYC for the first time over new years and completely fell in love with the city! Have fun!
ReplyDeleteI went to Victoria BC without booking ahead and had an amazing time!
ReplyDeleteI have been to that shop and love the NYC fabrics as it is one of my favorite cities. We are about to go to Istanbul and I am so excited!
ReplyDeleteLisa, you know I've loved watching you make that quilt and the way you've quilted it is just perfect, it's simply gorgeous. Thanks so much for the shout out, I hope you're enjoying every minute of your time here in the city and that you've still left some fabric in The City Quilter for me! You know I'm a follower, I think your blog and quilting are fab but please don't add me to the giveaway, I'd feel a bit silly if I went and won it!!!
ReplyDeleteI have had Yosemite National Park on my Bucket List for many years...hope to make it there before I "Kick" the Bucket!

ReplyDeleteI had a great adventure visiting and exploring Chicago. It was great architecture and cold weather.
ReplyDeleteonce in my younger years my two friends and i just "showed up" in ireland to surprise out friend in a pub. She was surprised and it was a FUN two weeks
ReplyDeleteMy biggest adventure was going to Israel about 35 years ago....yes, I've had adventures like Grand Canyon and Prince Edward Island since then...but that was the farthest I'd traveled.
ReplyDeleteMy greatest adventure - 16 women on motorbikes, raising money for a breast cancer charity riding the length of Britain, majority of whom had had breast cancer - we took 10 days and made the most of it - we visited loads of touristy places and made some great friends, some of whom have since passed, but not one will ever be forgotten - an adventure is definiately something that stays in your heart for ever. And to boot - we raised £26,000 for other young women with the horrible, nasty, selfish disease.
ReplyDeleteMy other two best adventures were spent in Alberta, seeing bears, horse riding, hiking - with some great friends.
Hope you have a fab time on your adventure, soak up everthing :o)
I've had two wonderful adventures to Paris... one with my sister and two cousins and the second with my sister, Mom and daughter for her 16th birthday! LOVE my memories of both trips.

ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!
Before becoming a classroom teacher, I was a professional tall ship sailor and we had quite a few adventures due to weather, length of trip, or crazy crew mates. In Honduras, a local fisherman came to the boat to say hello. The captain invited him on board and as he was taking a tour the fisherman told us that every day as a boy he used to climb up the hill with his Grandfather to see if the boat was in town. When he found out that the boat was being sold and may not be back, he was agitated and said he had to leave. We thought he was upset, but he returned a short time later with a boatload of red snapper and insisted on cooking dinner for the crew to thank the boat for the memories he had. It was an amazing thing. (And the snapper was delicious!)
ReplyDeleteItaly is on my bucket list. Right now I'm enjoying it vicariously on the travel channel. Thanks for the fun giveaway! I went to New York once and loved it!
