Saffron Craig Fabrics ~ Giveaway!

Today I would like to introduce to you Sydney based 
fabric designer and RPQ sponsor Saffron Craig. 

Saffron's unique and contemporary style fabrics are printed in distinctive color palettes and inspired by the places in Australia that she loves.  I am fortunate to have worked with Saffron's fabrics on several occasions, and was equally pleased to receive a bundle of prints from the recently released Magical Lands collection.


I have created a simple and fun design as well as made a feature of the two large scale border prints.  I have also added several prints from my stash to compliment the already beautiful range of colors, and have super quilted this quilt with closely spaced straight lines to echo the major seam lines of the design.


The finished quilt is framed with an orange/white striped binding fabric and backed with Kona Cotton Solid in Ash. 


The great news is that Saffron is kindly giving away a Fat Quarter Bundle of Magical Lands fabric to one lucky RPQ reader!

GIVEAWAY DETAILS:


To be in the draw all you have to do is leave a comment on this post  (please ensure that an email address is available on your profile or is included in your comment - NO EMAIL ADDRESS = NO VALID ENTRY).  International visitors are very welcome to enter!  Only one comment per person/email address will be eligible to enter the draw.
