Newly retired, I am working on LOTS of fun projects this summer! These would be great tools for my craft room.

I have a few projects that I am working on this summer. 3 mini quilts with mixed media, some bags, about 3 bed quilts and 1 big wall quilts are among the things I want to finish this summer. I would love to have this amazing package and try out some fabric painting. Always wanted to do some portrait painting on fabric.

My goal is to get my christmas cards started early this year. These items open so many different options for this. Wonder how much progress I’ll actually make on it. Oh well, I’m sure it will be a charge to the finish again – my list of recipients seems to grow the closer I get to completion.
I have several projects planned for this summer but right now I’m sewing a Sleeping Beauty dress for my daughter to wear in Disneyland along with finishing the Cinderella dress for my niece.
I’m doing my first ever beading project this summer. It is a rather free form piece with thread stitching and now the beading begins.

My summer project is a Japanese Fans quilt and need to learn sashiko embroidery to finish the blocks before assemble. Boy is this quilt a challenge. Would love to work on a small fun project if win this kit! Then, go back to the quilt.

Great tools! I’m working on a lot of projects, but I love my fabric beads made with small fabric scraps, scrap or new thread, a plastic straw, and gel medium to stick and seal them. Check them out here: http://anitaheadyfiberarts.blogspot.com/2010/07/back-to-regular-life.html I also just made some cool fabric with Solvy, scraps (fabric, thread, metallics, etc) and tulle. It’s a big teaching summer for me, so I’m trying it all!
I would love to try TAP, and the other bits would be a welcome addition..I’m currently working on a piece for an embroidery exhibition in September.

My summer project is fixing up my mom’s 1890′s camel back, embossed tin trunk. My grandpa thought it would be a great idea to paint it pink for my grandma in the 60′s. O_o I’m sure it was fantastic at the time, haha.
I’m looking forward to finishing the outside so I can pick out some lovely fabric to line the inside. :)
I have been working on playing with painting dyes on fabric this summer. It’s been going a little slow since on the east coast we have only just yesterday broken a drought we’ve been having (even with the record snows we got this winter, we were 15″ below normal for the year until yesterday).

This would be a windfall for me! I have just purchased some Lutradur to replace the pages in my journal for The Sketchbook Project. I want to be able to embellish, stitch, and paint for my theme of In Flight.
I’m striving to get some almost-finished quilts finished in time for the Skye Quilter’s exhibition next month. And some fabric-painted squares ironed and heat set which may or may not get sewn together into a quilt in time.
I’m taking some white PFD cotton through multiple dye, discharge, stamp, stencil, etc., steps, and setting aside a piece at each step to sort of chronicle the process. Photographs sometimes aren’t enough!
What a great give-away; I would love to win it. My first attempts with Lutradur are not a great looking as yours, but I'm still having fun trying. Liquitex looks like so much fun and I haven't found it in my town yet. Keep showing us fun pro

Well, I’m trying to finish off 5 quilts, that will be submitted in our local quilt show, for judging.
First time I’ve ever submitted a quilt in a show… kinda feels like I’m getting ready to go in a Miss Canada pageant and I’ll have to wear a bikini… YIKES! At my age, that’s NOT a pretty image! LOL
Please add my name to your contest! I’m quickly getting tired of all these quilt bindings and hanging sleeves – I truly DO need a (creative) project!!! *grin*

Ooohhh!!! What a great giveaway! I am working on quilts for Breaking Traditions and theDream Rocket.
I’m mainly working on projects I can do with my 3 young boys.
I’d love to do some fabric painting with them – what a great keepsake that would make! Thanks for the chance!
looks like fun! put my name in the drawing
thanks,Rhonda
love TAP–would love to win prize–am thrilled now that the company is offering it
We’re all hectically finishing off quilts for our second group exhibition which happens next month! Our posters have been printed, the venue all organized, tea and cakes rota drawn up… now we just need to get all our stitching done!
Sadly, my most creative thing this summer is being creative with staying active. Normally I do all my quilting in the summer as I don’t enjoy the hot weather. Changing that and thus haven’t gotten to do much quilting! But I’m starting a couple challenges this month. Anyway, enter me!
The color and texture on that small quilt is awesome. I would love to try some of those techniques myself. Thanks for having this chance to win the supplies.
Wow, this would be wonderful to win. I am just getting into this craft and this would be a big help. I love what I see in the Quilting Arts magazine and it has tempted me.
Thanks for entering my name.

A really interesting concept – something new to try!
beautiful project!
I’d love to win this. My 13-yr old granddaughter just love to try new projects and processes!
I am making a quilt for my grand daughter and one side is cotton to be her cold side and one side is fleece to be her soft side.
Oh would this be a wonderful addition to my ambition in my new studio !

This would be such a fun package to win! I have done some experimenting with lutradur and have really enjoyed using the product. My mind is racing just thinking about the possibilities. I have used it in some fun jewelry too.
Oh how great it would be to win….I am new to fabric art….always sewn, but want to do more….
I really really want to win this giveaway. It looks like such fun. Bonnie
Love giveaways and thanks for giving us the chance to enter. I would love to use lutradur to make flowers like I saw Lisa do in a demo. I would love to use TAP also.
The new TAP would be awesome on my current project – I have taken digital photos to illustrate a haiku penned by a friend regarding Lake Superior. The photos with fabric college and metal charms will grace a wall hanging.
I’d love to win so I can try new techniques – I just figured out beading, and painting is high on my list!
It would be so much fun to have a summer play day with my friends to give these prize items a try.
I am working on my grand daughter’s Bat Mitzvah. I am making all her decorations and centerpieces for this event. I just finished the Mad Hatter’s hat and a red and white rose topiery being painted by the card men. The centerpieces will be tea cup filled with sweetheart roses and they will sit on a little wonky board that is painted in pastels with polka dots, there will be a cat, rabbit or caterpillar on the board as well.
I don’t know if my comment was accepted, but here goes again, I am working on a big event for my grand daughter, her event is Allison in wonderland and I am making all the decorations for this huge party.
Would love these …it is afterall, July and time to think of those Christmas cards and gifts.
What a cool idea. I think this would be great fun!
I’m working on jewelry made from photographs. Would love to win the Summer surface giveaway. Love to experiment with new products. BEV. E.

I have been experimenting some with painting fabric, this would be a fun set of supplies to have. Thanks for the entry! Denise L.
I love TAP and lutradur! My favorite technique is to inkjet print directly on lutradur, but I also am amazed by the great quality of the transfers using TAP. Both incredible products!
I am a newsletter subscriber also! Love getting your newsletters…Denise L.
I just love all the projects!
This summer I am working on a fabric book called Three Little Birds, based on Bob Marley’s song of the same name.

Great giveaway which I would LOVE to win! My current projects are all projects which will be donated to the National Inclusion Project (www.inclusionproject.org) for the silent auction table at the annual Gala on Oct 16th, 2010. These jewelry items cost me anywhere from $10-$50 to make….and often auction for 10 times their cost. I consider that a good use of my donation funds for a wonderful cause! I’ve just completed a memory necklace which would have been SO much easier with that TAP paper!
Hope I win!!

OH I so need this. My girlfriend, daughter and I are embarking on Art journalling this summer and that would be fabulous to use in it besides I am out of Lutradur and need a fresh fix of it.
My current project is painting Tyvek fabric; placing ontop of background fabric; sandwiching; free motion quilting then burning the heck out of the Tyvek to give it an old look!! that’s my story and I’m sticking to it!
A dream prize that would be perfect for my latest project. I’ve wanted to try Lutradur and the iridescent medium for a long time, but haven’t been able to find those products in the nearest city. I always purchase a small amount of a new medium to see if it’s something I enjoy working with. Can’t always do that online, and, since I live in the boonies, the nearest retailer of Lutrador is more than 150 miles from my home.
I have long been a surface design junkie. I’ve made so many bad projects, but I keep trying. The Lutrador and Liquitex will give me some new products to work with. Thanks for this opportunity.
Great giveaway! I’ve been wanting to try the TAP papers & Lutradur for some time. This summer I’ve been playing with supplies I haven’t used in a while, like LithoCoal & Rubberstamps on tiles
I am currently working on my sixth storybook quilt for my sixth grandchild born last Sept. And planning the seventh for the next one due this Sept. As well as planning her Christening gown. Wonderful!! But if I win this, I would finally get to work on something for me :) And learn a new technique!

As a watercolor artist, art quilter, outside of the box individual, yet another part of my craft to learn and broaden my knowledge base!
What a lovely way to be introduced to a new idea via a GiveAway. I would love to win, learn and share with others my new knowledge acquired by winning tools to accomplish this.
Thank you. GiGi
I’ve also added you to my newly created blog: catzilrein.blogspot.com. Hopefully I linked it correctly…I’m still learning! I just posted my one block wonder I’ve been working on. More pics of it and others to follow!
I am mostly working on artist’s books repurposing recyclables such as old ledger paper, six-pack holders, cereal boxes into new journals, or in the case of the six-pack holders, brew logs for the beer makers I know. I even made a craft journal out of a Kraft dinner box and kraft paper pages. I am also making shrines from wooden microscope slide holder boxes using quilted panels to form the hinges and for the front and back. I paint the quilted fabrics as well as the insides with regular and metallic color acrylics and Lumiere paints. Then copies of photos and random objects, papers, thread whatever inspires me go inside. I embellish and write inside. Four beads on the bottom edges form the feet.
Wow!! What I could do with this lovely prize. You will set my imagination free and inspire me to greater heights.

I would love to win this as I am currently studying web design and I also love to do different things with paper such as making book covers and book markers out of the different textures of paper. I have had people actually wanted to purchase my creations much to my surprise as I make them for fun!
I just subscribed to your You Tube channel.
I have always wanted to work with this product.. I am a quilter, and am starting a wall hanging that has large flowers as a diagonal design running from corner to corner, I would love to use this technique within each flower and then add some beading.. This is all new to me, but as I get older, I like stepping out of “the” box from time to time. This kit sounds perfect.. gosh, hope I win it.. Thanks for offering it to us..
I had to spend my summer in another state taking care of my MOM after she had surgery and finding a craft to do is keeping me sane, so I taught myself to crochet and am trying some of the fabric painting. Keeps my mind busy from thnking about home and wanting to go home.
I am journaling this summer. I am trying thread art, fused flowers, and printing photos on fabric. So far the thread art is the most successful.
I would love to give these goodies an excellent, loving home! :-)
I just finished a Birthday Card for my mom’s 83 rd Birthday. It had a 3D flower made from felted sweaters on the front, and inside, an embossed stamp image that I added watercolor markers to fill in. I am getting more confident as I experiment, and as everyone knows, Moms love whatever you make …
I would love having some different goodies to experiment with!
I belong to an art quilt group in my area…..a number of people like myself who want to venture into this type of quilting. Just took a fabric painting class and my current project incorporates a number of the techniques I learned there….
I’ve just started a kind of ‘sampler’ of our garden. We have many different fruit trees, as well as the usual vegs and flowers, and want to make a border of small embroideries; one for each kind of fruit tree like in old tapestries. Well, I can dream!!!
Thanks for a great giveaway!! I would love to try these products and so would my 8 year old granddaughter who is an amazing artist already,thanks again.
I would love to try the TAP in some of my new home dec projects.
Thanks for the opportunity to enter another fun contest to win new products to try-out! Cheers, Cathy

Surface design? Something I’m so curious about, but don’t know where to begin. This package would get me going! Following is a copy/paste header from your newsletter!
I have a guild challenge to do this year, and I’m making sketches for it, which is interesting. And challenging!
I’ve wanted to try my hand at fabric painting; this sure would be the way to start! I’ve been trying out redwork this summer, for the first time, working on a quilt for my grandson. I’ve also been reading up on crazy quilting, thinking about venturing there, too! :)
Wow! I’d love to have a play with this lot and see what I could make! I’m a newletter subscriber and I’m about to try to put a button on my blog- http://sheppeylass.wordpress.com.
My teenage daughter would love to have these. She is very talented and always looking for different things to do. This would be something that we could do together.
I’ve got me a blog badge! :D
I get the newsletter! :D
I think that surface design is one of my fave things to do with cloth! TAP is fabulous, as is Lutradur…I’ve used them both. They are extraordinary!!
This would be a great way to expand the creative juices that flow in all art quilters.
What a wonderful package of products this would be to win. I can see all the fun I would have creating with this if I won. Thanks for the chance to win it,.
Our surface design group met this week and talked about fabric painting and design along with fabric dying. This package would give me a fantastic way to begin this process, along with ideas for our 12″ x 12″ quilt challenge.
I am a subscriber to your newsletter and love it.
And I have your badge link on my blog.
I just finished a guild raffle quilt (for charity). It will be raffled off next May. I also completed the top of a paper pieced quilt with a million pieces of paper! (At least it seemed that way when removing the paper!) I’m now working on a stack n whack variation with too many pieces. I need something simpler for my next top!

What a fantastic prize package!! I would love to use these on the purses I make!
This would be great to win!! Keeping my fingers crossed!!
Am an e-newsletter subscriber, just venturing forth into the blogshere.
What a wonderful giveaway. I’ve been wanting to try the Lutradur since I first heard Heidi Rand talk about using it.
Have (3) quilts to complete with fabric scraps inherited from my mother. She began this project in 1971 with fabrics used 1953 to 1971 to sew all the family clothing. The pattern she used was sent to her by a great aunt who had made a similar quilt with my mother’s grandmother in early 20th century. I have that quilt and the letter containing the pattern template sent to my mother by her aunt. I would love to win this contest, “be modern”, and join the generations with a label created with the blog prize.
I love the surface design ideas shown. This is a wonderful opportunity. Thank you for offering this chance to win.
I would love to try this product. I have been dyeing some of my fabrics with vegetables, fruits and nuts.
This looks like THE package to win. Thanks for the opportunity to enter.

Thank you.
I’m working on a small silk piece that I’ve done a stitched resist on. The stitching is leaf shape, has been dyed and the resist stitching removed, and now it’s layered and I’m doing more stitching before I dye it again.
would love to win. enjoy your newsletter.
It is exciting to evolve from simply following a pattern or making traditional blocks to start dyeing and painting and embellishing! My latest experiments involve my own hand dyes and brushing up on embroidery stitches. Laura Wasilowski books are sooo fun. I have a bunch of little quilts waiting in the wings for practicing some free motion.
Looks fun to try! I would love to win this super prize to add some surface textures. Fingers crossed.
Thanks for letting me entering your giveaway. I have subscribed to your newsletters. This summer I have been working on my daughters scrapbook for her shower and upcomming wedding. Also doing primitive stencils designs and sewing. I love crafting and learning something new. Thanks again. Debbie

I’ve been designing a quilt full of vacation memories and would love to play with your products. I can’t wait to see what others have use these for too! Thanks!
Never too late to learn a new technique, or craft project! I have subscribed to the news letter, and to youtube.
I have to try the Lutradur and get busy with the TAP. I’ve just signed up for a booth at our local Holiday Faire and I want to do something new. Hope this is it!
What a wonderful giveaway – it would be such a pleasure to give all these wonderful products a try.
I’m just finishing up ( label) a piece that is all done with curved piecing. An artist in Tillamook, Oregon has taken 10 photos for a contest that will benefit the Latimer Textile Museum. Four of us could sign up for each photo to interpret the image in fabric. I did lots of free motion quilting to get the texture that I wanted to portray a field of wild grasses.
Thank you for the opportunity to try a new product!
I am working on a folk art project this summer. I would love to win this exciting prize and play with it.
Thanks for the opportunity to be in the drawing.

I sure would love to be enterd and win some of those prizes. I love to do all kinds of crafts
I would love to try these products. My mind is constantly on go! I seem to find beauty all around me and pull those golden threads of thought together to create sometimes, something quite wonderful.
I would like to have a go at it.
What a wonderful way to demonstrate surface design options by running this contest. I’m integrating paper and fabric in books and these products would be fun to try.
I just finished a project that I think would have been more interesting if I had been able to use the product giveaway. Hoping. BEV. E
This summer, I’m trying to draw and paint flowers freehand that aren’t 100 percent abstract.
Thank you for the opportunity to enter this contest. The artistic inspiration in the prize could be just the thing to motivate me to finish up a few of those UFP’s lurking in the corners of my sewing room!
I am experimenting this summer with all types of fabric and mixed media art!
TAP is amazing! So glad you are carrying it and Leslie invented it!
Can’t imagine a more fun package to start a new piece of art with. TAP is one of my favorite things.
This summer I’m helping my daughters make baby quilts for their friends.
I will be making 32 ATCs for a swap and some small hand stitched art quilts.
I am working on some quilt tops this summer and also trying to quilt a few other and bind them. Also trying to cover some notebooks and make postcards for the holidays.
I am Disabled so I have lots of time to craft. I have been knitting socks, mittens, gloves, hats(an annual process) and am now knitting a sweater for my daughter for her birthday. I also have been rubber stamping and cardmaking.
I also have continued my quiltmaking for Christmas and other special occasions for my family and friends and sometimes something for myself!
I also subscribe to your newsletter and love it.
I have been wanting to experiment with the TAP papers. They look way cool! I have so many projects in mind. Thanks for the chance to try something new. :)
Wonderful tools to add to my soon-to-be-retired studio
Sounds like fun
