You may recall a post we made last year about the return of Timtex. We’re now selling bolts of Timtex to quilt and fabric stores and just recently created a craft pack which contains a 13.5 inch x 22 inch cut of Timtex.
Up next for our weekly product giveaway is our new Timtex Craft Pack. We’ve seen some great bags and postcards made with it, and we’re curious to hear what you are making with Timtex.
Post a comment below and describe what you have made or are planning to make with our new Timtex.
One lucky winner will receive a free Timtex Craft Pack. On Monday morning, May 4, we’ll pick one commenter at random and announce the winner later that day. Good luck!
Comments will be closed at 9am on Monday, May 4, 2009.

I have been painting timtex and free-motion stitchin on it to make postcards/birthday cards and ATC’s. Lots of fun to do, fast and creates a different look.
I would love to make a tote bag for my vacation travels, there are so many wonderful patterns right now and most need something like Timtex to stiffen the bottom.
Thanks for the chance to win some!
oh my gosh Timtex is a staple in my studio! I use it to make journals and books with, postcards and ATC’s and I use it as a base for making textured tissue paper surfaces that I turn into boxes and vases. I can’t live without the stuff and was very happy when you brought it back on the market.
I’ll be making lightswitch plate covers using art quilting techniques. I hope to see them on Etsy! :D
Oh, so glad to hear that Timtex is back. I would love to win your giveaway and make some bags using the Timtex.
I use it to make bags, of course and those cute fabric bowls. We just bought a shelf at ikea that has 8 cubby sections to it for my son’s room. I thought I would use the Timtex to make custom storage cubes for it.
Timtex is an absolute must for bag-making, as you know :-) Love the stuff!
Love this stuff! I keep some handy all the time. You never know when you will need some for that next project.
I will definitely be make lots more bags – they are so fun and so quick to make.
I love making tote bags and purses. I’d love to use your product on my new bag pattern. Many thanks!
I have made postcards and fabric bowls…thanks for the chance…
I would love to try making some fabric boxes with timtex. thanks!
I love Timtex. Makes great fabric boxes & bowls, along with delightful postcards. But I’ve never tried it with a purse and would like to see how that works.

I always use Timtex, from fabric postcards, vases and book covers. GREAT product!!!
I’m using Timtex on the back of canvas placemats that I am using as the backgrounds for a series of art quilts with a goddess theme. This way they’re stiff enough so I don’t have to frame them but they hang nicely on the wall.
OH I have been wanting to make tote bags using timtex.
so glad your going to be selling it.
Thanks

I use Timtex for all of my fabric postcards and mixed media boxes.
I’ve never used the product before, but have seen crafts made with it. I would use it to make myself some fabric storage baskets for my newly painted sewing room. I’m trying to organize as I bring stuff back in so this would be a very timely win! I’d like to try my hand at fabric postcards too…that at a later date.
I use Timex as the bottom of the reversible tote bags I am making (20 on the cutting table right now). I just picked up a pattern for some fabric bowls, and I like the idea of using it to make storage bins. I also have a pattern for storing sewing tools that could use some rigidity. So the next one will have a layer of Timex sandwiched in.
Thanks for the opportunity to add more to my stash!
I need a new fabric basket for my kitchen counter. We have outgrown the small one I made and timtex works great to keep it standing upright and sturdy…
I’d love a bolt of Timtex!
I’d love to use it to make some bags. I just bought the fabric. Now I just need a pattern and the interfacing.

I actually have some of it to make a purse. Going to use Laurel Burch fabrics and embellish with stuff.
I’m going to try making purses and bowls…
I would love to win this pack so I can make some bags.
Please add me to your drawing. I like making postcards, and would like to try making bowls.
I haven’t actually tried Timtex, though I have seen some wonderful products made using it. I have an idea for a new bird project that I bet it would work wonders in!
Smiles, Karen
I’d use this to make totes, bags, placemats, and those cute postcards. I would like to try and make boxes and bowls, too. thanks for hosting.
oooh I do so hope I win!! I would love to make some art journals and bags with this..keeping my fingers crossed and looking for a star to go wish on…best of luck to everyone!!
wow I didn’t know this product before…it looks great, I think I would start making some ATCs with it and as soon as I get familiar with it I should try t make a bag
I’m glad Timtex is back – so many patterns call for it. I’m hoping to make some fabric boxes and postcards soon. I also have a great pattern (Amy Butler, I think) for placemats.
Oh I love this stuff –hope I’m not too late!
