Laura,
700 posts is remarkable. I think we started around the same time, but I'm no where near that number...AND I'm the gal who supposedly does a lot of talking!
Congratulations for being an inspiration to all. Btw...I'd probably just sit and pet it.

P.S. I've been following since Hector was a pup.

Ricki Treleaven said...

I would use the fabrics to cover notebooks and journals.

Low Tide High Style said...

Congratulations on your 700th post, wow! And what a great giveaway! I think I would have a good friend of mine sew some napkins from that gorgeous fabric, seeing as how I can't sew a lick!

And who knew I wasn't already a follower?! I really thought I was but thought I better double check just in case! I am now though! Thanks for the chance to win and enjoy your weekend!

I love the colors and would make a new valence for my bedroom!

I really enjoy reading your blog as well. I feel like I have a personal
shopper! Great ideas.

Miss Kim said...

I'm late to your party but I do have ideas!
In less than 2 weeks we'll be moving into a big beautiful Victorian home (our own B&B!) and I'll have about 20 pieces of lovely white wicker furniture on the veranda. The pillows are looking rather faded and worn out and I need to recover them. This fabric would look perfect!

Aprons for my special friends!

Pamela Jane said...

Congrats on 700 posts! Since decorating my enclosed deck room is a work in progress, these cheery fabrics would fit right in with my summery palette ... or in my studio with its tomato red walls. :) And the book looks fabulous, too.

Cyndi said...

Wow! What gorgeous fabric! I'd love to make pillows! Thanks for the giveaway and congrats on 700 posts! mishkasmom92atyahoodotcom

I was thrilled when I saw quilt market pics a few months ago and saw that Cabbages and Roses fabrics would be available through Moda and can hardly wait until they are in the stores! I love the look of their fabrics, everything they do. As far as what I would make ... well pillows are good, I would also want to make some kind of quilted throw for summer, a lightweight one, or use it as a curtain in my sewing room or maybe just stare at it! The book looks equally as wonderful. Congrats on your 700th post. I have been reading you for a long time now and greatly enjoy your photos and all the items you find out vintage saling!

Congratulations! I have been your follower few weeks. I love to read about your life and collectibles. I met my husband in States and we loved to travel in Adirondack mountain, Catskill mountain and Lake Geroge :)I am from Finland and now we have lived 6 years in Chile.

I would make patchwork curtains for our guestroom if I win those fabrics.

Wow, 700th post. That is amazing! I am drooling over this give-away. I am a quilting addict. Would love to create a quilt with this lovely fabric. Cabbage and roses, what's not to love? The book looks like something I would love to curl up with. I am in the process of making something to give-away on my blog. Mine is for 100 followers. Small compared to yours, but I am loving getting to know them. Love your blog!

Congratulations on 700 posts, well done. I would love to browse the new book and use the fabric to make something from there.

diedre@littlesaintsimons.com said...

oh, i think pillows for my bedroom. we're painting everything white in our old 1949 house. something crisp, new, clean, with vintage-like fabric would be wonderful. i love to sew and need something in my hands besides a paint brush. love your blog. 700 posts is quite an investment. we've been lucky to have been the beneficiaries of your creativity and energy. thank you so much!

Congratulations on your 700th post. I am a new reader that recently discovered your blog. I would use the fabric and make beautiful pillowcases that would be on the bed of my guests. In the pillow cases, I would include clean smelling sacheets, clean towels, soaps, shampoos, etc. Everything to make their stay pleasant at our house. Thanks!

penny nelson said...

I am not sure. Probably just look at for awhile, taking in its lovliness. Then maybe a bag of some sort that I could use every day and enjoy. Thanks for the chance.

Congrats, I would just love to have to fabric, just to bury my face in it, breather deeply, and catch a whiff of those beautiful cottage roses.
