I have to admit, since the SUMMER SALE, I have been doing few trips of quilting fabric haul. I just have very little resistance when it comes to fabric.
But it’s all worth it.
Why do I buy fabric?
Fabric makes me HAPPY in a lot of different phases of their lifetime with me.
I am HAPPY WHEN:
- …I buy and shop for them – browsing for fabrics online or in store, is such a pleasure. Seeing all the colours, the possibilities. Such a fun thing to do for sure.
- …I get them in the mail. Who doesn’t love happy mail?
- …I have to keep them in place. I love organising fabrics, petting the fabric, and bundle of fabrics in a collection is so beautiful to look at.
- …I look at them on display in my sewing space. They keep me inspired and gets me giddy to get things going in my sewing room so I can start making with them and just so I can buy more. Haha. The cycle goes on.
- …I start working with them!
- …they’re in my quilts or items I used. And I keep loving them until they are all worn out and used out full of love.
So isn’t that worth it?
LOL
I know I don’t have to justify my purchases, and we totally can buy fabrics or anything we love for as long as we are in our budget and means. And for as long as we are HAPPY. I like to say that I am also supporting small businesses and designers.
Fabric SALE and quilting fabric haul
Recently, I grabbed a few things from the SALE section HERE and some from the monthly BASICS sale for background fabrics.
I always buy BASIC backgrounds only when they’re on sale. This is one way to keep the cost down aside many more ways to budget and save when making a quilt. –> you can read about how to quilt on a budget HERE for more ideas.
So here’s my recent quilting fabric Haul and my plans for them.
The new Tula Pink Tiny Beast Collection!
After the 100days 100 blocks quilt, I have to replenish my Tula Pink stash right??? I absolutely love this collection. I love the tiny dots and stripes that goes along with it too. Maybe I am going to make another 100 days 100 blocks with these?
By the way, the Kinship 100 days 100 block sew-a-long is coming again this August! If you want to join along, the quilt-along is going to use the Kinship Sampler Quilt Pattern. You can get the pattern for 10% off with code AMIRA here.
These are the two bundle, Glimmer and Glow all in its glory.
I am having difficulty in removing the plastic wrap. I feel like I want to keep them pristine in their wraps for a while longer before I am ready to work with them.
I pre-ordered these, so they were not exactly in the SALE section just yet.
Whimsical Romance Fat Quarter Bundle
I don’t do all of the Sew Sampler Box project, but this one we received in October 2021 was a lovely one that I wanted to sew someday! When there was a sale on the same fabric collection Whimsical Romance by Keera Job, I grabbed it so that I can make a bigger quilt – so I’ll be making a king size or a queen size quilt with these following the pattern.
I’ll be using Bella Solid Mauve and Bella Solid Flax
Another Sew Sampler Project, this time I just bought the Solid, Confetti Cotton Stargazer (still on SALE) to go with the fabric we received in our March 2022 box and the Snail Trail Foundation Paper pad.
Tasha Noel Quilt Fair
Another fun bundle I could not resist. I love Tasha Noel’s fabric, and have used her collection in fun projects like this apron here.
When I bought this, it was on the SUMMER SALE. At the moment it is no longer on sale where I bought it, but you can check out other fat quarter bundles on SALE HERE>
I have not any plans for these yet, but I also got some Blossom Basic as the background.
Sweetwater SnowKissed for the ChristmasTime Sew-a-Long!
In addition to the recent quilting fabric haul, I was also sent some fabric bundles to work with in the next few projects!
ChristmasTime Quilt-A-Long is coming soon and I’ll be using the fabric line from Sweetwater called Snow Kissed sent to me from MODA and Fat Quarter Shop for this sew-a-along! Since I have picked only several fabrics to use for that, I have some more fat eights left to share! Hence I would love to give it away to one lucky reader!
Fabric, Quilt Pattern and Notion Giveaway:
Here is up for grab for the giveaway,

I am working on two items for an upcoming birthday for my 5yovhrand daughter:. A London dress from Violet Field Threads, and a Pop Stars quilt. Should be fun!
What a nice little bundle. I love your Tula Pink fabric. I can’t wait to see what you do with it.
My current project…. organizing EVERYTHING after a move. Can’t wait to reload my cabinets! The give-away pack would be a lovely addition 🙂
I am working on baby quilts. I have a couple more coming this year. I am also working on a epp quilt. Thank you for all the time you put into this site.
I’m going to start my Nebula, hopefully next week. I’ve pulled for the diamonds, now just need to find a good background.
I have just moved, so most of my quilts are still packed away. I do have two that need binding and a table topper that needs some threads hidden that I hope to finish soon.
I finally got the courage to start a double wedding ring quilt for my granddaughter’s wedding! I am doing the free motion quilting on it now only because I got the confidence from taking your mini-course. It made me realize I can attempt anything even though I am 85 years old! It is really coming along nicely but slowly. I am really feeling good about it
Hats off to you. I am 75 years and started quilting when I was 69. I love it.
This is my scrappy year. Working on a bunch of scrappy quilts backed with kinky to make them cuddly soft and warm.

I am working on table runners, placemats, and many other projects. I’m trying to fill my time with busy work since I just lost my husband four months ago. I just don’t know what to do with myself but sewing helps me keep my mind on what I’m doing.

I finish my first ever quilt last week! Finish the top in February but only manage to quilt – straight stitch quilting this week and bind it. A great feeling when it finish.

I am working on the Banana quilt from the Perfect 10 book from It’s Sew Emma and FQS. It will be a gift for my dear sister for Christmas/Wedding! I work on small cross stitch projects to keep me going when I am away from my sewing room. I can do them on my lunch break at my jobs – if I have time to eat. I loved the drone shot you got of your quilt – it really allowed us to see the beauty of it that we cannot see as well with still close up pictures. Thanks Amira!

Thanks for the contest opportunity.
I’m putting the binding on a Pointy Strip Star quilt and getting ready to start a Five Star quilt. I love seeing all the quilt designs and figuring out which ones I might be able to make. I consider myself to be an intermediate sewer but I’m not a perfectionist so they don’t always turn out picture perfect. Still, I try.
