a little giveaway


To my dearest readers, I've decided to do a giveaway....a little something from Japan :). There are 2 sets to be won...

The first set is the one on the left:
1. A piece of approx. 60 cm of Japanese blue fabric
2. A piece of approx. 50 cm of pink flowery cotton/linen blend fabric
3. A frog mobile phone chain
4. A piece of Japanese washcloth

The second set is the one on the right:
1. A piece of approx. 60 cm red/off-white Echino fabric
2. A piece of furoshiki rabbit wrap
3. A piece of iron on embroidery
4. A fish mobile phone chain

To get a chance to win any of the above, comment on this original post, telling me where is your favorite place to buy fabrics (preferably with links) and let me know your winning set of preference and PLEASE make sure you leave your EMAIL address. I will draw 2 random winners. The first one I draw will get first priority, the second one I draw will get the other set :). Good luck!! This competition is open internationally and will be closed on Monday, February 8th 2010 at Midnight.  I'm going to have to change the deadline to Friday, February 5th 2010 Midnight so I can send these gifts by the 8th, since I will be leaving to Singapore then :).

  1. Woohoo! I get to leave the first comment! First, let me just say that you're so lucky to get to travel to such fabulous places. I adore the bunnies, so I'd choose that set if I was lucky enough to win. I'm glad you're home safely and that you had fun...I've been following your Tokyo diary posts, living vicariously I guess!

  3. I just loved following your trip to Japan. When I visited Osaka and Kyoto 5 years ago my love for fabrics had not yet started and now I just want to go back. Until then I buy a lot of knitted fabrics from JNYdesign - unfortunately the webshop is in swedish but the link is http://jnydesign.blogspot.com/ or from my other favorite webshop Mjukatyger -http://www.mjukatyger.se/
    I sew clothes for my little princess

  4. Maybe it sounds lame, but my favourite place for fabric shopping is IKEA. They have the cutest motives with many variety of colors.
    For traditional fabric such as batik and ikat, I bought them each time I went 'mudik' to Indonesia :D no particular place though.. you can easily find them almost everywhere in Indonesia.

  5. Hello Lia :)
    I like to follow your blog, and your trip to Japan must have been so great, with all these super findings you did!!
    One of my favourite shops was the one I found in Berlin, Germany. The link is "www.frautulpe.de". Unfortunately the site is in german, but the fabrics are sooo great!!
    I would go for set 2.
    My email: carineza@gmx.ch

    I wish you a good day from Germany,
    take care

  19. Hrm...favorite place to buy fabrics? Well...quite honestly, ALL of my fabrics have come from four sources: JoAnn's (our megamart fabric store here...I haven't figured out yet if you're from North America, so forgive me if that's an obvious store. ;-)), Freecycle (love me some free!), Goodwill (also love me some thrifted sheets *grin*) and winning them on giveaways or swaps!

    However, if there's a place full of DROOLWORTHY fabrics...it'd have to be sewmamsew.com.

    And as for preference...I can't pick! If I win, let the other girl have first choice. ;-) I mean...on the one hand MORE FABRIC! and on th e other hand...COOL FUROSHIKI WRAP!

    See? I can't choose. ;-)

  20. hi Lia,

    when in S'pore, i like to hunt around the fabric stores in chinatown, Pearl centre 2nd floor. In Palembang, there's only one shop i go to whenever fabric shopping bug bites.

    i love vintage/retro and its reproductions so recently i made my first purchase here:
    http://www.reprodepotfabrics.com/
    and i'm still waiting for its arrival.

    i adore set B then again, 1st set is nice too!

    thanks for your generosity!

  22. Hi Lia,
    I love your blog, it's really nice one. I purchare fabrics mostly in a shop called Sukno in Novi Sad, Serbia, unfortunately they don't have a site or online shop so I can't leave you a link for that. I also do a lot of origami and I usually order my papers from this site http://supplies.britishorigami.info/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=1

    I'd love set #1 :)

  23. I love to buy fabric in Frau Tulip.

    http://www.frautulpe.de/

    Frau Tulip in Berlin offers sewing courses (where I gave myself a kick start course!) and has really the most beautiful selection of fabrics and accessories as well as lots of help and advice... I find it hard to choose between your two lovely offers but the one on the right appeals to me the most!

    Thank you so much for the chance at your giveaway; I especially like the bundle on the right!

  32. I usually buy my fabric from a nearby marketplace. They have a large collection, so I love spending time there looking at different prints. But when I have time, I visit Divisoria. There's a building there dedicated to all things fabric/cloth.Its like the motherlode of all kinds of cloth available here in the Philippines.

  33. I'm loving reading about all these sources for fabrics! Some of I've heard of already, but many I have not. I can't wait to start browsing!

    Both bundles are delicious, but if I had to choose I'd go for Bundle #1.

    Right now my favorite sources of fabric are Etsy and my sister. On Etsy, I search by "fabric and bundle" to see what's new. And my sweet sister works for an estate sale company here in town. Every week or so she's got another bag of vintage fabrics or notions for me. I'm always amazed at the treasures that she finds for me.

  40. The group on the left is my favorite, but I'd definitely love either! I most often shop at fabric.com. They have a large inventory, carry quite a few designer prints, and I can often find a coupon code to make the prices very good.

  41. Recently, I have purchased a lot of my quilting fabric from Etsy, especially Fresh Squeezed Fabrics (http://www.etsy.com/shop/freshsqueezedfabrics) and Fabricworm (http://www.etsy.com/shop/fabricworm). But my all-time favorite place to buy fabric and sewing notions is at School-House Fabrics in Floyd, Virginia...this is an old fabric store which I used to go to as a little girl when my mother was sewing...they have the best deals and sometimes you can find really great quality fabrics. I absolutely adore the pink bunny print in your collection - I would love to make some sweet thing from that for my little niece!

  46. Hi, I'm new to your blog. I've been buying fabrics at www.fabric.com for the last 8 or 9 years. Or local fabric stores such as Jo-Ann, Hancocks fabric, or a quilt shop when I need higher quality fabrics.

    I would love the second set! I never win this type of contest but decided to take a chance. Thanks for this fun giveaway!

  48. CUUUUUTE!!!!!!!!

    I must admit that I cannot give a link to my favorite fabric shopping place... Because it's my local thrift store :D Between the clearance rack of $0.27 skirts and the big round rack of vintage fabrics from estates, Park Avenue Thrift is a paradise for me :D

    I love both packages equally... but I have a pattern in my 101 1 yard wonders book that specifically calls for a Japanese print... So I'm gonna say I'd like to have the second set if I win please :D

    you should be able to contact me via my Blogger profile since I reallly don't like putting my e-mail address out there. KWIM?

    I buy almost all my fabrics from the local "fabric chain" here in Canada called Fabricland. The prices are great and the selection is even better so when I need a bunch of things that's always where I head.

    For smaller more specific peices I always head to etsy.com!

    I'm a newbie to crafting with fabric and the only place I have purchased (so far) has been Ikea which I loved... or charity (thrift) shops.

  69. Actually, my favorite place to buy fabric is a/the thrift store(s). I often purchase beautiful silk garments for just a little cost, then de-construct them for plenty of useable yardage. Wool garments are purchased and used as well. You can find some quite unique fabrics this way, as well as wonderful buttons, too. I would prefer the first bundle(because of the frog item LOL). volmom@gmail.com

  77. I'd love to buy more thrift store fabric, but I never seem to find anything that calls to me. My favorite place IRL to buy fabric is M & L Fabric in Anaheim, CA. It mostly has cottons which is what I mostly use. It's HUGE has a great selection and has a lot of discount stuff, too. I just spent a bundle there last week. My favorite place online is various etsy sellers.

    The fabrics you've chosen are beautiful. Would love to see what the winner makes with them.

  82. Hi! My favorite place to buy fabric is Britex in San Francisco. Each floor specializes in different things and it's an adventure. They have a terrible website (www.britexfabrics.com) which does it no justice.
    ReplyDelete
  83. Oh, I love the blue fabric set (the frog mobile phone accessory would be for my mother, who collects frogs!)!
    Since I'm just starting sewing, I've mainly bought fabric at my local fabric store (I'm in France)& at a kind of thrift store, but unfortunately, no Japanese imports there... Maybe some day!

  90. I live among a group of very small towns & we don't have much of a selection, but our local JoAnn's has a fairly decent sized collection. My choice would be the first set. It would be very nice for my next fabric project. Thank you for the opportunity.

  91. Hi, what cute sets, and thank you for the giveaway!!! I like to troll the local thrift shops (I am in Rochester, NY) for old sheets and yardages of fabric! Sometimes I find the best stuff!
    Also, Ruby Jane's retro fabric is great when I want to find that special something: http://www.rubyjane.com/index.html


    I love set # 2, and my email it lxp3478@rit.edu.

  96. Wow! Great giveaway! It's a hard choice, but I'd go with set #2. Now, for places I order fabric from: first I go to www.Fabricpalooza.etsy.com because of the fabulous customer service. I also really like www.SewLoveFabric.etsy.com for the same reason. Both shops are great!

    Thanks for the chance to enter!

  108. Hi there! What an exciting giveaway! I love fabric :)

    My favorite place to buy fabric is at our local Mill End Fabrics. They get all kinds of things and have older and newer items, all at great prices most of the time. i.e. their regular patterned cotton for quilting and such is usually $3-5! Too bad they don't have a website, or I'd be more than happy to share it :)

    I like the first set. That blue fabric is just beautiful! I hope I win! :)

  115. I am in love with set #2 - All the cute animals! At the moment, I get all my fabric from my local op-shop. Freecycle.org is another great place to pick up unwanted fabric to repurpose into something exciting... like Morsbags! (see morsbags.com)

    I love your collection, u know I do....especially when I always ask you to help make me pouches for my beloved mobile phone....

    I adore the fabrics....I buy fabric from mayestic but my favorite collection will be at Apt. Gandaria...^.^ the owner of the house is very generous, she would let me choose & cut me a teeny tiny piece of fabric from her collections...love the frog fabric...sometimes I even stayed for lunch & dinner.

  117. So beautiful fabrics! I can´t decide ... mmmh, perhaps the first set? Or the second? If I have to choose I would like to have the second set. I really like them both!

    I buy my fabric local. We have a few nice shops here. Sorry no link! :-(

  122. I buy a lot of my fabrics at op shops (second hand shops). You can find such a fantastic variety of fabrics and I often don't just look in the haberdashery section. I also look at scarves, knitted sweaters and anywhere else in the store where they may be some hidden treasure troves!

    I love what you're offering in this giveaway, but my first preference would be the second bundle.

  126. Hi Lia ... welcome back, pasti seneng banget jalan-jalan ke Jepangnya .. Karena aku tinggal di Jakarta my fav place to buy fabric adalah di Pasar Mayestik, karena deket sama kantor dan pilihannya lumayan banyak dan lucu-lucu.

    Hhhmm .. pilihan yang sulit, dua-duanya lucu .. but I like the second set best.

  128. Hi Lia,

    I leave a comment on a blog...but your blog deserves it!
    I find your posts very interesting and I loved the images you added from Japan-

    I buy my fabrics locally, but I found great fabrcs online at http://www.hartsfabric.com; http://www.noeks.eu; http://volksfaden.de
    my e-mail is michela.zagonel@katamail.com

  129. Hi Lia and all your fans! I would be honored to win either of your bundles, each has it's own charm! I would choose Pkg 1 if I would happen to be a winner because my Mom collects frogs and I would give that to her. I am fascinated with fabrics and buy mine online from fabric.com mostly. Whenever anyone travels and asks me what I would like them to bring bag, my answer is always, "fabric."
