How lovely are you. This is such a generous giveaway. Ok, so it probably won't come as any surprise but I adore the fretwork fabric. It reminds me so much of my Grandmother's old Queenslander and the beautiful breezeways that were above the doors.

Thanks for the opp Thea and good luck everyone

What a great shop, and giveaway! I love all of the fabrics you carry, but would love to see more with some abstract designs (more along the lines of the iron flowers) for use around the house. I love the cute pineapples, etc but something more neutral would be fun too!
Also, love love love the fish towel!

You have such gorgeous things in your shop. I really love love love your mushroom print. It's gorgeous!
Thank you for the chance to win in your drawing. I visited your shop and I love the Marguerite Desert Rose Hemp Organic Cotton. It is really pretty!
The pets & bones design is adorable, I would love to win either of them!
My favourite things in the shop are the fabrics (as I have a bit of a fabric addiction). My favourite print is the marguerite.
Thanks for having such a lovely giveaway!
I love all the organic fabrics! But my fave are all the tea towels!
Thanks for paying in the Giveaway!
I love the Printed Organic fabric on your website. The Marguerite (SP?) print is fabulous. Would love to win some of your special fabrics. Thanks for your generous give-away. I enjoyed looking at your fabrics on your website.
There are so many things I like but the Fretwork fabric would possibly be my #1 fave. I also love the fishes tea towel, it's gorgeous!
My favourites are the cupcakes, mushrooms and pineapples both as fabrics and sold as teatowels/tablecloths. I also love your new fish teatowel design!
Lovely store. My favourite item would have to be the Chai Latte dress, gorgeous (just a little out of my price range unfortunately!!). I also love the fabric particularly the red mushrooms and Marguerite prints.
Love your giveaways, my girls would love the pink cats and bones, but simply could not pass up that tea towel it is gorgeous!!
love love love those prints! so much fun :)
to be quite honest i love the whole idea of it - the organic fabrics, eco-friendly and/or vintage... perfect!
if i were to pick one thing, i would probably get the lavender eye sachet-pad thing, not bacause it is neater than anything else in the store, but more because i feel like a little lavender indulgence right about now...
My favorite in your store are both colors of the cupcake tea towels. You have unique items and that is so refreshing to see.
I love the Chai Latte dress! More fashions, please.
The first fabric is my fave.
mom0ja at yahoo dot com
I love your Glamour Mice (and so would my three kitties:). Nice shop, too!
Your fabrics are lovely.
Linda
I just love that tea towel! I like all the eco-friendly goodies in your shop. I noticed that you cannot click on the photo icons to enter sections on your homepage (but you can on the others)--that would make clicking along a bit easier.
Cheers,
What a great giveaway. I think my two favorites are the "pets and bones" fabric that is being given away or the mushroom fabric you have on your site.
I love the hand towels, they are super cute. I like the balck and white Pets and Bones best.
I love all of it, but my favourite product has to be the Navy Marguerite fabric. What a great giveaway as well.

I love the tea towel. My favorite in your shop would be the mushroom fabrics. I'd love to see the fish design on yardage!
There is so much to choose from in your store! My favourite is the Red Mushroom Print on Eco White Cotton Jersey, I love mushroom themed fabric and cute jersey is so hard to find. I would love to make myself undies out of this fabric.
As for the contest my love of tea towels makes me choose prize #3.

Thank you for the great giveaway and the chance to win!
I am completely smitten with that tea towel!
More fabric patterns! I love the designs - would you like someone to contribute more?
Putting my web site producer hat on - the clothes should all be grouped together not 2 separate groups. maybe "Organic Clothing" as the header and 2 sub sorts one listed as "basics" and the other as "designer"
Ah! So cute!
I love the Mushrooms and the Marguerite designs, in any color. Your fabrics and colors are simply amazing. They would be great for so many different projects, from clothing to home decor!
Ohhh I love your black and white pets and bones fabric! The things that I could do with that fabric!
In your store - I adore the white marguerite print, I don't think I've ever seen anything quite like it at my local quilting shops. The fretwork is my second fave. I'd be interested to see more white prints on that linen coloured fabric.
Oh, I would absolutely love to see more tea towels! That linen looks so nice and your work is STUNNING! Thank you so much for the giveaway opportunity!
