Our lady liberty winner for last week was Rie who said: The ribbon is awesome! It's so different from when I was a kid (a whole 25yrs ago) the fanciest ribbon back then was gingham ribbon! I still have a soft spot for gingham ribbon, Rie. I hope you enjoy the lady liberty and kokeshis headed your way. I'll send an email to get your details.
For week number 2, I've gathered some pink...
I've got a four pack of pink Farbenmix trims (2 meters of each), a Farbenmix birdy keychain and I've added in a fat quarter of Kokka pink & yellow pigs on linen. Balloons and cherries! The perfect little party.
Since there's a superhero or two on the ribbon, why don't you leave a comment answering this question:
If you could have just one crafty superpower what would it be? Would you be Super-Mega-French-Knot Girl who can twist and stab with ease? Or maybe Gluezilla, the greatest of all crafty binders?
I'd like to be Freehand Frieda who could cut straight lines and perfect shaped free handed!
ReplyDeleteI would be the amazing "time managing diva" with the miraculous ability to stop time to do a little crafting - kazam!
ReplyDeleteI think the pink child would love these
I think I would like to be amazing straight line cutting girl...able to cut straight lines without a single ruler!!
ReplyDeletethanks for a chance!
I would be time-management-wonder-me with skills that with the flick of my super hero (french seamed)cape I could get everything on my list done!
ReplyDeleteI think I would be some sort of free-motion quilting super hero...like the amazing quilt-shrinking woman who is able to shrink down huge king size quilts and quilt them with ease on her home machine.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could get all my points of squares and triangles to match perfectly every single time. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI'd have a sharpening stone as a finger, so I would ALWAYS have sharp scissors and rotary cutters. Sharpie-girl? I'd be pretty popular, I think!
ReplyDeletePretties!! I would love to be mega-finishing girl, who actually finishes some of the hundreds of things she starts or plans!!
ReplyDeleteI's have to be "Time-shift Girl", who finds extra hours in the day espcially for crafting!
ReplyDeleteI love those pink ribbons!
I think I have too many to choose but I think this one.
ReplyDeleteSuper stretch sewist - able to sew knits in a single bound
I would be the Quilting Queen who could hand quilt swirly designs without making my fingers numb.
ReplyDeleteOOoh such cool stuff....I would have to have the ability to go superfast - faster than the speed of light so I could finish everything in record time! Hugs Naomi
ReplyDeleteBeautiful goodies! You're so sweet to share!
ReplyDeleteIf I could be a crafty super power I would want to be Super-Binding-Woman! I always struggle with binding quilts, it would be nice to be super at it! :D
My super-craft hero ability would be to do all the other things I do, besides crafting, as fast as a super hero could do. Dishes in a dash, laundry at the speed of light, grading at ground breaking speed, etc. This would allow me super-craft hero time to craft! ~Kelly
ReplyDeleteunDeniably Domestic
I would like to be " Super Tidy Girl" so that I could find what I want ,when I need it, which would save me alot of time!!
ReplyDeleteBut if I joined forces with all the other super crafty girls here , I think we could take over the world. Yay us!!
So nice to meet you yesterday, Amy. As Naomi said above, my superhero power would be speed-crafting. To be able to do everything quickly, without sacrificing attention to detail!
ReplyDeletewhat a gorgeous giveaway ... the ribbon is so sweetly pink. i love them. now ... what superhero would i be? maybe the whips-it-up-in-no-time wonder woman ... LOL
ReplyDeleteI'd have the power to baste quilts by thought-control alone. I would baste the quilt in mid-air so the dog wouldn't sit on it while I was at work.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to be able to do a straighter satin stitch; my sofites always end up with angled eyes...
ReplyDeleteI would be Ziptastica, able to install zippers perfectly, first time, every time! Gorgeous ribbons!
ReplyDeleteCheers
Amy P
**Flash-Stitch**
ReplyDeleteI can hand stitch anything and everything at the blink of an eye! So Get ready, Get set, GOOO fingers!!!
That was fun to create---wheeee!!!
Super speedy-Sewer - whether on the sewing machine or doing the stitches by hand to mend a little or mega hole or to whip up a softie for a little darling and make them happy, speedy sewer to the rescue!
ReplyDeleteFun Question. I would be "Quilterella" and I would have a fairy godmother to make all the new fabric lines appear and the animal kingdom would help me with the chores so I could sew all day! I would definitely NOT have the stepmother and sisters in my fairy tale though.
ReplyDeleteI'd have to have some sort of meandering quilting super power since I cannot get that one down without any super powers yet. Please send a fairy to make it happen!
ReplyDeleteI think I would have to be Super Womon of the WIP. All I would need to do would be use the superpowers to get all the WIP's finished.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to be able to magically operate the sewing machine one handed while juggling a small child on my knee - and get the results from two handed non-"helped" sewing.
ReplyDeleteCecilia
My crafty super power would have to be to be able to not only knit properly, ahem, but to be able to knit without looking. I do love how lovely old ladies can just knit away with nary a peek.
ReplyDelete:)
I would have mad quilt corner matching skills. All my points and corners would line up and put even the pickiest of piecers to shame. AWESOME ribbon btw.

ReplyDeleteI would have the power to knit IN THE DARK!! Yes! I could knit while sitting beside my son's bed waiting for him to go to sleep. At the moment I just do pelvic floor exercises = B.O.R.I.N.G!
ReplyDeletep.s lovely to finally meet you yesterday lady! I was talking to my husband about your enormous pickles ;)
Introducing "Light-tracer", she has the ability to trace and cut patterns at the speed of light - so then she can get onto the fun part - the sewing!
ReplyDeleteI wish.
Thanks for sharing the Farb love!
I would have to be "The amazing non-prcastonator" This way I'm not ever leaving market prep till the last few days before and not sewing into the wee hours on the nights leading up.
ReplyDeleteOohh I would be super speedy girl with the abilty to whizz up clothes for me and the kids at super speed! That way I get to but fabby fabric more often!! Justine xxx
ReplyDeleteI would like spray adhesive to come out of my fingers. ha!
ReplyDeletei would like to be some kind of a mind controlled sewer? like looking at the fabric and it'll be sewn together the right way and edge finished.
ReplyDeletethanks for hosting the giveaway.
I would have super speed to get things done much faster! In my head I can make 3 quilt tops in an evening... ah yes, my poor delusional brain! wouldn't it be nice though! Even to just have that super power for 1 week :D
ReplyDeleteGinny
I 'd love to be Threaderizer - Where stray threads would magically collect in my pocket, instead of ending stuck to the carpet in each room of my house!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to be the Just Go For It hero!! No more procrastinating for me!!
ReplyDeleteGill
I would love to be "Time Freeze", with the ability to hult time for me or those in need of a little craft time. What I could do with those extra hours :)
ReplyDeleteha ha! great question!! i'd be insomnia - girl with super human ability to never have to sleep! i'd stay up all night crafting up crazy goodies whilst the world slept!
ReplyDeleteThink I would go for the ability to tidy up after my crafting - after all I'm not superhuman as it is ;o)
ReplyDeleteI would love to be the Hexa-girl and have my special power to cut and piece perfect hexagons in no time at all. Love the pink ribbon with the pig-tailed girl!
ReplyDeleteI would like the power to bind super fast.... perhaps my superhero name would be The Binding Bandit.
ReplyDeleteI would be Super Finisher Girl, faster than a speeding sewing machine, more powerful than stitch length number 1, able to leap huge piles of unfinished projects in a single bound, and able to finish all WIPs in a flash!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the ACE giveaway Amy!
I would be super quilter. My FMQ would be the envy of everyone.
ReplyDeleteI would have the super power of time. I could create extra time so I could get more crafting done. And I'd be able to work on multiple things at once!
ReplyDeleteI would love to be quick at cutting patterns and blocks so I could get down to the sewing! I want to win!!
ReplyDeleteI would be super-tiny-sewer! I like to sew softies, but I find some of the small sewing (curves) difficult. Anyway, thanks for the giveaway. Your work is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI would be "Pucker-free Freak"...my walking foot would perfectly handle the largest of quilts with never-a-pucker.
ReplyDeleteI would be the "Sewing Straight Quarter-inchey" cowgirl. My seams would be so perfect!
ReplyDeleteI would have the superpower of seeing into the craft future, so that before I purchase something I know that I am actually going to use it or finish it. For example I have had a basket of wool and a crochet hook sitting there for over a year with the promise of learning to crochet. Think of all the time and money we would save ! But..... I do like collecting projects to for my 'one day' list !
ReplyDeleteI would have to be:
ReplyDeleteGet-it-right-girl
I sadly seem to make one mistake (at least) EVERY time I sew :( no matter how much prep/research/practise, I always stuff something up.
if not that I'd be:
Super-Straight-Stuff
Even with a ruler I can' rule straight.
I have so much going against me I am surprised I keep going :P
What a great question!
ReplyDeleteCaptain Completion - I have so many UFOs/WIPs it's pathetic. I'm a process person so once I've figured out how something works I quickly loose interest and move onto something new. The result . . . huge stacks of half finished things all over the place.
Flash Stitch Girl - whiping up quilts in a flash. To think I could finish all the hand pieced, hand quilted projects in my head.
ReplyDeleteAngie Applique, so that I could do instant, speedy appliques on my basic machine.
ReplyDeleteI would be a sleevehero girl.
ReplyDeleteOh for me it would have to be Free-Stitch Flash!
ReplyDeleteI would love to be Super Kawaii Krafter, who can design and sew all things cute!
ReplyDelete:)
Lyn C
i'd have to be 'basic sewing master!' then i'd have all the basic sewing skills and know what stitchs to use for what!
ReplyDeleteOooh great giveaway! I would have superduperfast accurate cutting skills. Once all the pieces are cut, sewing is fun! But for some reason I get nervous when I am about to cut into some fabric I love (and life is too short to work with fabric you don't!).
ReplyDeleteI would love to have the power to multiply me - one to measure, one to cut, one to sew, one to iron and another to cook, clean and look after the kids. The Farbenmix trims are so cute.
ReplyDeleteMy superpower would be to have all the fabric just cut itself into the correct pieces needed for anything I am about to make.
ReplyDeletei would like to be a januma sewing machine with a walking foot.
ReplyDeletei would just sew on quilts for life time.
and i like the message above me, i would like to have lazers in my eye's and i would just look at the fabric and cut it by looking
thanks!
I would have lazer eyes for precisely cutting fabric and paper in intricate shapes
