Cheryl said...: My sweet mom deserves a shopping spree at the FQS! She makes quilts for all 5 of us kids, her 9 grandkids, donates quilts to the senior center, and never takes the time to make one for herself. When she looks over my shoulder at the huge selection of fabrics at your shop, she's just in awe that so many other fabrics exist outside of her local quilt shop. I can't wait to have her sit down and order all kinds of loveliness at your shop! Thanks.; February 14, 2013 at 9:56 AM

He has bought me quilt design software, a cutting machine to help make appliques and his latest wonderful gesture is to buy me a new storage press for my growing stash. I have sewn for my boys, for friends, for family but not yet for him. I would love to make him something special so I would love hm to have this so he could choose exactly what he would like me to sew for him.; February 14, 2013 at 10:26 AM

KRubin said...: I would love to send this wonderful gift to my friend Carolyn! We were great friends in college, but lost touch when we moved to different states. In October, I began learning how to sew/quilt. I immediately called Carolyn because I knew that sewing/quilting is her passion. She not only gave me wonderful advice, but encouraged me to continue. I have called Carolyn numerous times for help with a pattern, buying fabric, selecting particular colors, and more. She is always so willing to help! About three weeks ago, an unexpected package came in the mail for me from Carolyn. The package was filled with beautiful fabrics with a note that said she was so happy that I was quilting and that she wanted to share her love of quilting with me! This was the perfect surprise for someone with a very tiny stash. Now, I would love to surprise Carolyn with this wonderful gift that I know she would love!
Thank you for this opportunity!; February 14, 2013 at 11:01 AM

JoAnne said...: I would love to give the gift certificate to my good friend, Michelle Chance. She is an avid quilter but recently her family has suffered some health and financial issues, and I know this would brighten her day! She quilts when she gets a chance but the opportunity for some new things would be so welcome.; February 14, 2013 at 11:04 AM

Jen said...: I would send it to my aunt. She was thrown off a horse last week and has to rest her back and bruised ribs, so a fabric deliver to start a new hand sewing project might be just the pick-me-up she needs.; February 14, 2013 at 11:09 AM
Samantha said...: I would give this to my online quilty friend Jamie. My job went away in February of last year. Basically my job was our 'extra' money for getting things we want (vs. need) and eating out, that sort of thing. Needless to say, when my job went away (business sold, all employees downsized) so did my fabric spending for the most part. Jamie and I have been in a couple of swaps together in the last couple of years and she knew I had shortages of certain colors in my stash. She filled a flat rate postage box with fat quarters in those colors and sent them to me as a surprise! She's a wonderful friend and I'd love for her to have $50 to spend on some of your gorgeous fabric! Thanks for a chance to give her a little something sweet. :D; February 14, 2013 at 11:09 AM
Lexilooo said...: I'd love to send this to my Mum, as she's the reason I am now a quilter! She's been quilting for many years now, and it never interested me until just a few years ago. Now, we are always swapping fabrics and patterns (I sent her several mini charms from FQS for Christmas!), and it is so much fun to share this with her!; February 14, 2013 at 11:10 AM

Jackie M said...: I would love to send this to my "bestie." She and I met while taking a quilting class and have been besties ever since. Like true besties, we always think of each other when we are out shopping for fabric, books, patterns. Usually it ends up one for her and one for me. She's always complimentary of my quilting projects and provides me excellent feedback and ideas. She's also there for me as a true friend. Thank you for the opportunity to do something sweet for my bestie!; February 14, 2013 at 11:21 AM
John Meier said...: I would send this to my wife, Mary. She is always quilting for others and giving and giving and giving. She is a loyal fan of Fat Quarter Shop and this would be my chance to give her a gift that can allow her to keep giving. johnmeier1@gmail.com; February 14, 2013 at 11:22 AM

Shishypat said...: I would definitely like to send this certificate to my daughter, a newbie quilter. She began quilting 3 months ago after hearing me say how much I wish that I had started quilting while my mom was still alive. She was an avid quilter and would have loved to share the hobby. My daughter is now officially obsessed with fabric and quilting and we have so much fun together. I'm sure my mom is smiling down at us.; February 14, 2013 at 11:33 AM

Kristi Reed said...: I have a dear friend Jeanne who has been having tough time lately as both she and her husband are currently unemployed and this obviously makes other things than purchasing beautiful fabric a priority. I would love for her to be able to have a special treat for Valentine's Day.

Thanks for the giveaway!; February 14, 2013 at 12:02 PM
Debbie B Sam said...: I would pick my friend Rachel. She is ALWAYS doing stuff for everyone else. She NEVER tells me know when I ask for something from here, heck I don't even have to ask, I mention something and it's done! Her son is on the autism spectrum and I honestly don't know how she does all that she does for everyone. I love her to pieces!; February 14, 2013 at 12:05 PM
Kristen said...: My big sister Danielle would be my choice. For Christmas she just wanted time this year for the two of us and our mom to work on a quilt together. We're a bunch of garment sewers, and way to easily distracted by all the possibilities in quilting and thus we are still in the process of picking out the pattern. To be able to give her something more with our time would be fantastic!

My email is kmtisdale@gmail.com; February 14, 2013 at 12:08 PM
Linda said...: HI! I'd send it to my dear granddaughter,Emily, who is beginning to show an interest in quilting/sewing! This would be such a treat for a beginning quilter!
Thanks to you+FQS for a sweet giveaway! HAPPY VALENTINES TO YOU!

Lisa Marie said...: I would love this gift certificate to go to my MIL who helped and encouraged me when I started quilting. She used to do a lot of quilting herself, but lately seems to have lost interest somewhat. Some minor health problems related to aging are getting her down and making it hard to get motivated. She does plan to make a baby quilt for a shower gift and I'm hoping that will get her excited again. Some gorgeous fabric from FQS could really help too!

Lisas Mom said...: I would luv to surprise my quilter friend Kimberly. Even though she lost her job and home during this recession, Kimberly continues to be the driving force behind our local guild's charity quilting. She cuts kits to hand out to members. Once the tops are returned Kimberly quilts them on borrowed long arms throughout the area. Her once envied stash is rapidly depleting as she donates fabric to complete the 250 quilts that go out into our community each year. She deserves this gift.; February 14, 2013 at 12:45 PM
Johanna said...: I'd give it to my Mom, she would love to have some Kansas Troubles fabric! She doesn't treat herself to goodies like that.; February 14, 2013 at 12:49 PM
Mom on the Move! said...: I would send it to my battle buddy and quilting buddy Megan. Our husbands were in the same Army unit in Germany and we got though a deployment (or two) learning how to quilt... among other things ;-). We are now living in different places but still talk and often text pictures of our latest projects to each other for advice or just to show off. We even talk about opening a shop together one day. BUT the main reason she needs this is that she just gave up her job and moved in with her parents to help out her mom who is recovering from breaking her hip. 50 "free" dollars would give her something to play with while she's away from her own house and helping her parents. Thanks for the chance!; February 14, 2013 at 12:51 PM
nettie said...: Oh, yes, I have a quilting buddy who is really struggling financially right now. A GC from FQS would really cheer her up.

abengel said...: I would give it to my 12-year-old daughter. She's really getting good at sewing, even has her own sewing maching, and has already made her first quilt. She'd like to make more, but it's been a long time since I worked, and I can't afford to spend much on fabric for either of us. This year she's doing her 4-H project on sewing, so she will need some supplies. She's said she can use some fabric from my stash, but I know she'd rather choose her own fabrics. I feel bad that I can't afford to get her what she needs.

She had surgery in the latter part of 2012 and wasn't able to sew at all for months.It was the kind of nightmare that only another quilter could truly understand.

Thanks so much for the chance :); February 14, 2013 at 1:22 PM
