Fun Friday Giveaway - Hoffman Fabrics



Have you noticed that beautiful new Hoffman Fabrics are arriving in your local quilt shops and online stores? Late summer, SewCalGal had a chance to tour Hoffman Fabrics and see these fabrics before they were announced.  All of these fabrics were absolutely beautiful, so it was a challenge to keep quiet about them until they were officially introduced by Hoffman.  So, today, I'm delighted to share insights with you on some of their new fabrics, as well as hold a giveaway where you could win some Hoffman fabrics too!

You are probably familiar with Hoffman Bali Batiks.  They've introduced a wonderful  line of new batik fabrics in their Bali collection, which includes yardage, Bali Pops and new pre-cuts called Crackers and Snaps.

Hoffman Bali Crackers  are 10"x10" pre-cuts, 40 per package.



Hoffman Bali Snaps are 5"x5" pre-cuts, 40 per package.


Hoffman Bali Pops, of very popular 2.5" strips.

And, there are many new Bali Handprints too!


They have also introduced many new lines of print fabrics that are going to be fun to create with!

Their new print collection called Sayomi is a large collection of beautiful fabrics with Asian florals and motifs.  The Peacock print (K7126_136G) is also the focal fabric for the 2013 Hoffman Challenge.



K7126 136G-Peacock GoldK7127 136G-Peacock GoldK7129 47G-Gold GoldHC G8555 96G-Olive Gold



They have a new line of fun Yo Gabba Gabba! fabrics.

A fun new line called Paradise Blooms.


Picnic Social is a fun new line.

I hope you get a chance to find all of the new Hoffman Fabrics at your local quilt shop or favorite online store.  You can also take a look at them at HoffmanFabrics.com.    If you don't find what you want at these stores, remember you can let them know you'd like them to order the Hoffman Fabrics you are interested in.

And, for those attending Quilt Market, be sure to visit the Hoffman Fabrics' booth to be able to see all of their beautiful new fabrics.

Don't forget to check out their free patterns too.  This cute table runner pattern, called "Oh Pumpkin Table Runner" is a perfect Fall project.



You may also be interested in Quiltmakers Treasure Hunt where you could win Hoffman Fabric, as well as prizes from 27 of the sponsors. Visit Hoffman page for the 2013 Challenge and look for the button to enter.










Did I mention a giveaway?

Our giveaway today is for a bundle of Hoffman fabric, which SewCalGal calls a "Sushi Roll". This isn't a fabric bundle you can find in your quilt shops, but a special one that is made up of various Hoffman Fabric samples.  And, a great way to add beautiful fabric to your stash that can help you make a small project, or be incorporated with other fabrics to make a larger project.  Or, you may just want to enjoy the beauty of it and display it on your quilt wall while you decide what you want to create with it.   



  


If you would like to win this bundle of fabric, followers of SewCalGal simply leave a comment on this post.     I'll randomly select a winner next Friday.  

Want an extra entry? Go "like" Hoffman Fabrics on Facebook. And, let them know SewCalGal sent you, by leaving a comment on their Facebook page.  Afterwards, come back to this post and leave a comment to claim this extra entry.

Don't forget to keep an eye out, as there will be a few more giveaways for various Hoffman fabric bundles.   I have a few more Sushi bundles of beautiful Hoffman fabric for you, thanks for Hoffman's generosity and all they do to make quilting and sewing fun!

The giveaway last week  was for a six month membership to The Quilt Show. Congratulations to LeAnne!
