Welcome, Sew Biased Fabrics + Giveaway!

 *The giveaway is now closed, and the winner, Linda has been emailed! Congrats!*

Today I'm welcoming Sew Biased Fabrics as a new sponsor of Quilty Habit! Dixie lives in Texas and has been the proud owner of the shop since 2014. Sew Biased Fabrics specializes in apparel/garment fabric, and quilting cotton is coming soon, too!

This is the perfect time to use apparel fabric because it's Me Made May (#mmmay16), the month when sewists celebrate and wear their handmade clothes. I just wrote all about Me Made May in this weekend's issue of The Wonky Press - take a look!

At Sew Biased Fabrics, you can choose from a wide array of chambray, double gauze, voile, linen, lawn, denim, eyelet, flannel, and knits. Remember, all of these fabrics can also made into quilts, if you are strictly a quilter! I sewed an all-voile quilt (except for binding) a couple of years ago and it's easily my favorite quilt to cuddle with (see below).

 Fat quarter bundles of double gauze - perfect for a quilt. I am in love with those new Birch Fabrics pluses!

Read more about my all-voile quilt here. It's amazingly soft!

My three favorite parts about Sew Biased:
1. You can pick up any one (or several) garment patterns from independent sewing companies, books, and notions. I really want to try Cashmerette's Appleton Dress!
2. Shipping is free for U.S. orders at or over $65! That's super convenient.
3. Dixie features a Flash Sale daily right here! Today, it's coloring books (like Cotton and Steel)!

So many great Top patterns to choose from! Plus, patterns are available for all ages and sizes.

To celebrate our new partnership, Dixie is offering a giveaway to a Quilty Habit reader.

Note: Dixie is willing to split the 3 yards into 1/4 yard increments for the winner, if they would like to choose several prints. Again, perfect for a quilt!

I wore my voile Socialite dress (pattern by Anna Maria Horner) to a lecture I gave at a quilt show this weekend - more about that soon! Yay handmade clothing!
