A Visit to Hoffman Fabrics and A Giveaway

UPDATED 4/11/14 Due to Rafflecopter Hiccup....I have fixed the Rafflecopter gizmo and it should start working.  No worries if you have already left a comment, I can go back and manually add them to Rafflecopter.  I have also extended the time because of the mistake :)  I might even add more fabrics....stay tuned!!! Thank you for your patience :)

I've been traveling so much that I'm thousands of photos deep in preparing for blog posts.  When I was in California a few weeks ago I had the opportunity to go back to Hoffman Fabrics.

 

I instantly fell in love with this quilt and the fabrics.  I think this is the "Royal Surfer" line ....makes me want to jump in the water.  Check out Hoffman's 2014 Tropicals & Conversational Catalog" to see more fun fabrics.

Seeing all the mouth watering Hoffman Fabrics my creative energies began to run wild.  After seeing the Route 66 fabric I thought of home, the Motor City and the Woodward Dream Cruise.  Classic cars are driven up and down Woodward Avenue for three straight days and people come by the thousands.  I suggested Hoffman consider making some Dream Cruise fabrics so those classic car enthusiasts could be sporting  Hot Rod Shirts, Skirts and Shorts.   I also thought of the pattern I have for making boxer shorts....classic car boxer shorts would really be fun.   Just so you know....I AM holding my breath Hoffman Fabric Designers :)....and I'm begging too!  

Another recommendation I have for Hoffman Fabrics is to put defibrillators within arms reach when giving tours....I felt my heart racing several times during my visit.  You may need one just to view the remaining photos...you've been warned!! 

 Pallet after pallet of beautiful Hoffman Fabrics.......

"Route 66"

 "Royal Surfer"

 "Sunset Fighters"

 "Parrots"

 Hoffman  Batiks

Jamie Fingal's Home is Where Your Story Begins  is so much fun.  Can you see those travel trailers....this fabric makes me smile in my heart.

 This is a piece Jamie made and instead of using batting, she used felt on the back. "Coffee Break" is a free pattern offered by Hoffman Fabrics and you can find it HERE.

Very playful.  I was  thinking  making prayer flags with her fabric and using the felt would be a fun idea....I may have to try this.
