Traveling Stash Box Ready To Move



I just received this wonderful overflowing Stash Box from Joanne of  Splitting Sstitches.  Since I will be tied up with quilt shows and vending - I want to get this box right out for comments, give away , and mailing on.  This was STUFFED!

 
 
These are the items I chose:  Two panels, a FQ bundle of solids, several FQs, thread, machine needles, and those lovely fan-shaped shell buttons.

 
 
 
This is what I am adding:  zippers, some Batik FQs, hand dyed charms, a Moda charm pack, Alexander Henry yardage, Connecting Thread Quilter's Candy yardage in the teal, and yardage of Urban Odysey in Lime Green.
 
What is a Traveling Stash Box? It's a box that's filled with a collection of fabrics, patterns, thread and other quilty fun! When you receive a box you take out what you like, replace it with items from your own stash, hold a giveaway, and then send it to the next lucky person. You can find all the rules and guidelines here.
 
Most importantly, be an Active Blogger and pass the box on quickly.  Due to postage costs, shipping only within the USA.  Comments will be open until Monday October 15th - midnight (EST) and I will announce the winner the next morning.  All attempts will be made to contact the winner, so be sure you are not a 'no-reply' commentor (see side button to see how you can check your settings)
 
Sewingly Yours,
Sharon
