TRAVELING STASH BOX #2 DO YOU LOVE DENYSE SCHMIDT?

I was lucky enough to win Traveling Stash Box #2 from Tricia at Ramblings of a Quilter recently! I haven't had a stash box in quite a while so it was fun opening this one! Lots of magazines, patterns and fabric! I decided to "freshen" up the box a bit. Hope you all like what I have added!

First I have to show you what I selected to keep! (Click on pictures to enlarge)
 
Mostly fat quarters with a few larger pieces
Now what I have added to the box : six(6) half yards of DS Quilting in blue. I bought loads of it when I had a 60% off coupon at Joann's....you would not believe how many trips I made to get all of the fabric! I thought I would share some of the goodies to the winner of the box!

I am also adding a six(6)piece fat quarter bundle from Connecting Threads. I really love the combination of the reds and yellow.

Next on my list is a bundle of black and white fabric. The two pieces on top are approximately fat quarters and the bottom four pieces are half yards. Aren't they gorgeous?

 Finally I am also adding a Quilter's Quarters by DS Quilts Collection. Isn't that a great idea...putting four fat quarters together?

Just a note: You do not have to take the complete bundles  if you only want one or two pieces. I just bundled them because they looked so good together!

Do you want to win this box?(It is all stuffed into a medium flat rate box) Easy! Just leave a comment on this post and you have a chance! You have until 8 o'clock Thursday evening April 10th to make a comment. For a second chance, follow me!  Oh wait, there are a few rules...aren't there always? Here they are:

Important Things to Remember
