Wow, thanks for all the comments on the last two giveaways. I have closed the comments and will draw a winner shortly. I sold most of the fabric I listed on Ebay, and listed a little more — including some vintage sheets and my old sewing machine.
Sew Mama Sew is hosting a Giveaway Day today, so I thought I’d hold one more giveaway, and then I’ll draw winners for all of them tomorrow.
For this giveaway, I’m giving away vintage sheet scraps below. These are pieces from the sheets I collected for the blue and yellow quilts I’m working on, and the leftovers I sent in from the vintage sheet fat quarter swap. There are all sizes, shapes and patterns.
To enter, leave me a comment describing what you would do with vintage sheet pieces – I’m looking for inspiration. :) Due to shipping costs, this giveaway is open to US addresses only.
Be sure to check out all the other blogs participating in the Giveaway Day at Sew Mama Sew.
Edit: Comments are closed. A winner will be posted soon.

love, love, love vintage sheets, scraps are even better!
I’ve already got some blue, green, and yellow vintage sheets from my grandma that I’ve been wanting to use in a project, but I haven’t gotten any coordinating fabric yet. I’d like to use them to make extended-length pajama pants for myself, my mom, and her three very-tall sisters, with whom I’ve had so many conversations about how hard it is to find long pajamas! The coordinating fabric will be used to make trim and patchy-bits to cover holes and stains. Thanks!!
holy smokes!! I guess people really do love fabric. As do I. Please count me in.

I like to use vintage sheets to make drawstring bags. I’ve also used them to make pillow cases. They seem especially soft when they’ve been used a bunch.
I would love to make a little patchwork dress from these scraps. The colors are really bright and fun.

Tote bags, with the scraps pieced together in a asymetrical way.
I would make a few stuffed animals for the little nieces and nephews… & a patchwork quilt for my mom. =) thanks.
I’d use them for a pieced apron, quilted potholders and decorated teatowels, since kitchen stuff is sort of my obsession.
