little folks anyone??

What is a girl to do when she cuts to much of her favorite fabric? I have been so indecisive with my little folks voile quilt that I cut a bunch of 4x4 inch squares and then changed the layout of my quilt. So now I have an abundance of squares. I thought about planning a second quilt to use them all up....but have been looking at this fabric on my design wall for so long now, that I just don't have it in me. So what is my resolution? Whenever I don't know what to do with something, my first thought is "someone else will know exactly what to do with it"....and that led to....give-away.


I have two 4x4 charm packs up for grabs. The first charm pack has 10 of each pattern (14 voile and 6 dobby) and the second has 5 of each pattern. I know that someone out there will love this fabric and have the enthusiasm to make something incredible with it.
To enter all you need to do is leave a comment (with a way for me to contact you if you win). I will be using my own personal random generator, Isabella! She will pick 2 lucky numbers out of a hat on Monday, June 14. Sorry so long, but we are going to my nephews graduation in Northern Cali and won't be back until then. Oh, and everyone is welcome to enter, including all my fellow bloggers over seas!
