Fabric Giveaway!
Please tell me Pam wasn't the only person who noticed that darling retro fabric that was the backdrop of the gravy bowl in my last post!
It's from a new line called "Momma's Apron Strings" by RJR Fabrics. I just finished a few projects using the fabric and happen to have some leftover pieces...and I thought there might be a few of you out there who would enjoy having fun with some fat quarters! Actually, it's a half yard of the windowpane check with the fruit and fat quarters of the other pieces.
There are 3 colorways:
Classic blue
Reddish pink (my favorite!)
Green and orange
The fabric won't be in stores until July, so I can pretty much guarantee you'll be the first in your neighborhood to play with it!
You know the drill, leave a comment, blah blah blah and someone, or something will draw a name next week sometime.
I can't guarantee you'd get the color of your choice, but if you have a strong preference, let me know in your comment.

I forgot how cute this stuff was. Sign me up!
The fabric is awesome. And no, I didn't notice the fabric behind the gravy bowl until you point it out. They look soo nice together. Thanks for a giveaway!
I never looked past the bowl. I think I have the same bowl my husband Aunt gave me a couple of years ago. The fabrics are gorgeous. I wouldn't be able to choose one color if I won anyway.
Will you believe me if I said I noticed? I really did--I thought it was sharp how nicely it complimented the fruit pattern on the bowl and for a second I thought it was the identical pattern. They're all lovely fabrics and I can't wait to see them on the bolt.
Pink, please.
Didn't notice the fabric either. I'd take any color. The fabrics are all lovely.
They are cute... I wondered why the fabric kept changing while you told your story. It sure does match your bowl!
Please sign me up too! It's all wonderful! My "choice"... do I have to make one? LoL... I guess I would say I like it all!
So sweet of you to share with us.
Jean
oh boy, oh boy....this is TOOOOO cute. Love it ALL!!!! Hoping I am one lucky girl (G)!!!! XXX Annelies
Love the fabric - any color will do! Please add me to the draw.
know what???
i DID notice the fabric, but i was too caught up in the story.
tehehe.
i'll take which ever one you wanna give me.
:D
thanks for giving these away!!!
i really have to get my hands on this line when it comes out.
These are so cute! Thanks for your generosity!
i did notice the fabric in that the one photo shows the piece that almost matches your bowl. i thought it was real cute. i wouldn't mind being entered for a chance to win in your giveaway. it's lovely fabric, no matter which color. have a great day.
Such fun prints! Thanks for sharing :)
I loved your bowl, but honestly didn't notice the fabric. I really like the green and would love to be a winner!
Thanks!
Oh my gosh! Darling fabric! LOVE the different colorways!
Oh I noticed it alright but I thought it was like a tea towel or something kitcheny already made up. I haven't seen this fabric yet. I love it, of course. The window pane one I had a piece of in vintage years ago that I used in a kitchen quilt. I had forgotten about it. It was slightly different but very similar. Fun fun. Love it all. The green with the orangy red flowers is my favorite of the bunch though, the solid green with the flowers makes a statement and I love the colors. How did I miss this line of fabric in my "radar to be releasted" hunts? I've got to step up my game, obviously.
hello please add me to the picings for the lovely green shades
and woo hoo on finding the wonderful
bowl to fill in for the one that will always be on the shelf
thankyou for sharing
all of the new fabrics look delis
ter
oh, any colorway would be fine with me!
doki
Oh, these are just the prettiest things EVER! Thanks for the giveaway...
Just gorgeous - such a 'fresh' feel! Can't decide if I like the pink or the green/orange colour way best - oh heck, I like it all! I look forward to seeing the range when it hits the stores.
Kind regards - Dawn
I did notice it, but I assumed it was vintage. It is darling.

What a great giveaway! I guess I was so entranced in your gravy bowl story and the magic of the bowl that I missed the background! It reminded me of a certain pie dish my grandma used that I so wished I could have had. I am glad you found a close second on that. The fabric is soooo cute. Thank you for the chance to win.
Yes, sign me up! I love all the colorways. My huge cat decided to take a nap in my Grandma's spongeware bowl, fell out of it and broke it. The things we put up with. Thanks!
They are all gorgeous...I won't even say which is my favorite since I'd be sooo happy to win any colorway!
I noticed it, but just thought of it as a pretty backdrop. But I am definitely up for a giveaway. Those fabrics are calling my name... I can hear them now "you who, oh you who"... pink or green want a new home here. Oh by they way, they were the perfect backdrop for that fabulous bowl.
Ohhhhh I LOVE the blue and the red set. I would make them up into something just lovely - I don't know what yet - but I will figure it out.
i love it all!! I'd be thrilled with any of them! thanks!
Love the pink the best-est. Love to have the chance to play with it.
I didn't notice the fabric behind the bowl but seeing it on its own I will be looking forward to seeing it in the stores. Cann't wait to see what you've done with it.
how cute this line is...
hard to chose a favorite..
ok will go with the pink then the green...
hard to chose, what a great FRESH line!
thanks
Kathie
Love it! I really like the green/orange.
What gorgeous fabric ... I just want to stare at the blue!
Love this fabric and I especially love the green and orange but would be thrilled to get any one of them.
I love 30's fabrics and I would love a chance to win.
Oh wow my eyes did not see the fabric.........you told us to look at the bowl and that's what my well trained eye looked at!!! The fabric is beautiful and I would be forever grateful :) Thanks for the chance. Kathie k.bugbee@att.net
Elizabeth, can you tie a little apron on Melvin and have him do the drawing...it would be toooo cute! Any color is terrific!
Cheers!
What great fabrc. I loved the story of your gravy bowl too. I'm so glad you found another one.
Sign me up for the drawing, any color would please me immensely.
Thanks
I eyed that adorable fabric too. Put my name in the hat!
I noticed the fabric right away -- reminds me of a vintage tablecloth I have. It's all beautiful! Please enter me -- I'd even look on ebay for a matching bowl! Florence
I saw the fabric but assumed it was vintage cuteness...silly me! I would love to be considered for your little drawing!
Love to be a winner! Beautiful fabrics and nice of you to share...
I am usually a red person, but I like all three of these colorways! Please enter me for a chance to win some.
Love the blue colorway in this fabric! Would love to win your giveaway.
libertythreads@charter.net
Hi -- I'm not trying to cheat for two comments -- I just read on another blog that without my email, I would probably not be considered for the giveaway -- so, Florence, a few comments up, --
pnf1965@warwick.net. Sorry!
Love, love, love all the colors and all the prints. I could sooooo make some lovely things and feel sooooo special because not everyone has this beautiful fabric yet!
Oh MY! How cool would it be if I got fabric before it's available in the stores! Please enter my name in your drawing!
I'm telling the truth - I wished I could have some of that fabric when I saw it in the picture. That is great news that it will be available soon!
This fabric is so cute - and I normally don't prefer retro fabrics. Love this line.
Andrea
Love all the fabrics! It would be hard to choose if I did win!
Donna
Wow, that fabric is absolutely the cutest, that is something to definitely add to the look out list for its arrival.
This is beautiful fabrics and I would love to use them in one of my projects.
What an adorable line!!! I am rather partial to the pink set, followed by the green/orange set. So cute and kitcheny! Yes I know there is no such word as kitcheny lol!!
This is just to cute. I want some hehe
For some reason, I can hear Jeff Probst from Survivor saying before a reward challenge - "Worth playing for?" Well heck yeah, it's worth playing for! Sign me up!
What great fabric!!! Please sign me up for a chance..and no I didn't notice the fabric. Love all the colors, I'm not particular. Thanks for the chance.
How funny, I did notice the fabric in the "bowl post", but only because the colors seemed to match the bowl perfectly. I thought, she's so clever for putting those two together. I assumed it was a vintage fabric! Sign me up for the giveaway -- I'd love to do something with these cute fabrics!
Ooh, that is pretty fabric. I did notice how nicely it matched your cute bowl. All the colorways look beautiful to me!! --Jen
Oh, my, that green and orange would be perfect for a birthday present for a certain friend of mine who has a HUGE collection of vintage laces. You know the one!!
Man, this is just what I have a hankering to work with. I just made a doll quilt for a friend with a strawberry them. I think I'd like the blue as first, choice, then the red. Please, please, please pick me! Thanks.
I love it all. I am sure anyone would be happy to win any of them.
What beautiful fabrics. Count me in-I love to play with fat quarters. Thanks.
I'll come and play with your fabrics!! Please enter me.
ooooooo. I love it I love it I love it. Please enter me too. I can't wait to get my hands on it.
I love all that fabric! Seriously, I did notice the fabric under your cute little bowl. I loved it then and now. Thanks for the chance. I just love your blog and check it daily.
I'm making a pinwheel quilt with fabrics from husband's grandma and all of these fabrics would work great with it, especially the blue or reddish/pink.
Thanks!

That fabric is right up my alley...I have a fruit theme in my kitchen. How cool that you found an identical bowl to your grandmothers - it sure is sweet. Thanks, Elizabeth for the chance to win some of the great fabric (p.s. I like the green or pink colorway). :)
I have never seen this fabric line..I know it's so new you can't buy it yet...but usually pics pop up on the internet! Color wise I love all 3. I am totally a 1930's fabric collector....I have hundreds of different prints. They are on my list now...
This fabric reminds me of a table cloth from my childhood...I love it...Toni

I hope I am not too late - I love the green and orange, but I love the other, too.
Hi Elizabeth. Thanks for stopping by my Blog "LadyJaneVintage"! Yes, I am very sad about my current situation with Ebay and even sadder that they would side with the type of person that they did.:( BUT we'll see what happens, I may or may not be back on Ebay again soon, BUT in the meantime, I will be selling on Etsy under the name of LadyJaneVintage.:) My blog has the link to my Etsy auctions. I only have a couple things listed right now, but will have tons more tomorrow and to come.:) Thanks for your kind words though - It makes things seem less gloomy!:) Jen
I like this fabric too. How sweet it is.
Love it! I can never find stuff like this when I'm looking for it!
Count me in . . . I love the green and orange - but they are all wonderful! - Marlene
They are so pretty! But the classic blue is still my favorite! Can you count me in? I hope I'm not too late!
The fabrics are all soooo beautiful. Reminds me of my grandmother. I love all the colorways. Add my name, too, please.

I love that fabric! It makes you happy just to look at it. I am not picky about the colors, I love them all. Please add me to the pot.
please add me to the drawing...Love, love those fabrics and your blog.
definitely noticed the fabric! So funny that the bowl brings memories of your grans gravy and for me, the fabric reminded me of my grans aprons! I have often said, that when Gran donned her apron and headed to the stove, she could make a meal out of almost nothing...and the amazing thing was, that it was always delicious! I feel so sad for people who say they never knew their grandparents, because some of the fondest memories I have include my Gran! You can add me to your list of names, but even if I don't win, it was a nice walk down memory lane...Thanks!
Wendy
How sweet is that fabric!! I, too, like the reddish pink, but all three are to die for. Please sign me up too!
OMGosh...is it too late to enter? I love the bowl and the fabric! The 2 colorways I like best are the pinks & the greens. Thanks for the offer...good luck to everyone!

I love the fabric. It is so summery. It would be cute as a little picnic quilt. If I could have a preference it would be blue, green, pink. Please put me in for the drawing.
Thanks, Tina (tlpmcn@yahoo.com)
I just love your patterns. You have a real knack with designing. I hope that my patterns will have as much success as your patterns. Mindy from Kansas
Love the fabric! Such a fun giveaway! I like the authentic vintage look that it has. I liked the previous post too about the gravy bowl too.
They all look yummy but the green and orange is my favorite. Great photos!
I just love the fun giveaways and the blue fabric is my favorite, but any color is fine. I just love vintage fabrics. My grandma was a sewer and I used to love going into her little sewing corner and looking at her fabrics. This reminds me of her, and because of her I sew to.
Thanks for the chance to win fabric.
its all so pretty, I love the vintage look. Thanks for the fun!
LOVE the fabric.. and I always thought I just liked the more modern prints. Thanks for the giveaway...

Love the new design. And I can
relate to items being broken, and
then replaced. My wonderful
Pyrex bowls. One has to go to
an Antique Store now to find them.
Your new fabric designs are
beautiful...very Retro! And yes,
I would love to win any color.
Terry
I don't remember if I said that I love things VINTAGE!!! Well, not all, but some things!
That fabric is amazing. I love all of it!! I have a great idea for a little project for those materials as well. Heather
All three colorways are wonderful. And I am really glad that you were able to replace your bowl. I have some of my grandmother's things that I cherish and use. There sre so many memories tied to them.
Yes please! Sign me up, the fabrics are adorable and the pink would be great for a little girls quilt ( and I have the girl!)
What delicious fabrics! Could not choose a favorite if I had too.
Your guinea pig is just adorable. My guinea pig, Rocks, passed away a couple of months ago. I had her for more then 5 years and I knew she was getting to be an old lady but I wasn't prepared for her to leave me. I still miss her "weeking" at me when I opened the fridge door and all the snuggles. She was such a lover.
When I first saw the pictures of yours it warmed my heart so much. thank you for the best part of my day!
These fabrics are darling! I love them all! Thanks for the give away.
I like the green.
amaryllis_wings(at)yahoo(dot)ca
I've seen that bowl somewhere before!!! But it may be because I like all that fabric. Lord, love a duck, send it my way! I have just the pie in mind!
I like the pink.
