If you read regularly then you will know that I am a fan of Fabric Inspirations - a brill UK-based fabric shop. I like their choice of fabrics (there always seems to be good new stuff coming through into stock) and their customer service is just excellent (I recently had an extremely rapid replacement of a parcel fabrics that went missing in the post, no questions asked). Another huge bonus is their £1.95 flat delivery charge for orders up to £20 – the only drawback for me is that they don’t do smaller cuts than 1/2 metre, but even then they do have some gorgeous Fat Quarter bundles.
So recently when Aneta from Fabric Inspirations asked me if I’d like to give away some fabrics on Very Berry, I was really happy to say yes and give them a huge recommendation.
So here are the fabrics – aren’t they gorgeous? These gorgeous owls were designed for Annika Wester for Kokka of Japan and the fabric is a lovely textured cotton (85%) linen (15%) mix – it’s a sort of lightweight canvas feel.
You can see some cute pics of the fabrics in use over on Annika Wester’s blog - they look fab as bags and pouches, and I think would make great cushions or fun table mats too.
Aneta sent me a fabulous bundle of 1/2 metre of each of these fun fabrics, plus a lovely co-ordinating solid (so that’s 2m in total!), so there’s plenty for you to work with.
All you need to do to win is leave me a comment saying anything you like! No theme this time… my brain is too tired to think of one..! You don’t have to do *anything* else (it’s the summer holidays after all…), but I’m sure Aneta would be delighted if you checked out Fabric Inspirations and followed them on Facebook if that’s your thing. The giveaway is open to all and I will do the draw and announce the winner a week today, on Monday 13 August. Good luck!
By the way, Fabric Inspirations are on their summer break until 14 August, but any orders placed between now and then will get free UK delivery, so it’s well worth doing a bit of shopping and saving yourself £2.
Right… back to the sport!

I love the owls! They are even right on trend atm.
These are just delightful! I would love to make a bag or *something* with them! Or maybe just pet them for a while….
Gotta check this shop out! Thanks!
These are such beautiful fabrics! Would love to win them, but if I did, I would have to share them with a dear twitter friend who adores owls and is going through a huge upheaval in her life at the moment. Her need is far greater than mine! Might just have to take a sneaky peak at the website…..you are going to cost me money again, I can tell!!!

I am not usually into owls – however these are ‘absolutely fabulous’ – i would have to pet them for some time before cutting into them for any number of things – i hadn’t seen them before – especially love the green.
My daughter is about to go back to college. She loves owls and these gorgeous creatures would make something fabulous for her dorm room. Thanks for the chance to win!

Lovely fabric! I seem to be building quite a list of fabric stores in my bookmarks!
they are gorgeous and would make brilliant stool cover or large cushions for the teengoths very black (and a little white cos I wont let her use blackboard paint on the doors) room.

Quirky fabrics. I love them.

i like owls too
What gorgeous fabrics. Ideal to make some matching gifts for my owl-mad friend!
Oh I do like these owls! Thanks for this nice giveaway!
Oh aren’t the green ones lovely – think Aneta should be putting out a gold range to go with the current GB luck xxx
oh oh oh, I’ve been looking at (and coveting!) these fabrics for ages! I’ve just spent too much recently on fabric and so have been stopping myself from buying them!
Twoo irresistable! Table napkins and runner…journal covers…cushions…just twoo many ideas…
love them, I need a cheery fabric fix after they day out from hell with children running off, dog misbehaving and husband moaning because he’s not used to them…..I thought days out were idyllic sun filled picnic-ing bliss (or is that just some kind of Boden advert myth?!) feeling very much like a useless mum at the moment and in need of me time to recover lol!
Aren’t they cute? Thanks for the chance to win.
Gorgeous fabric
Beautiful fabrics – would be perfect for that bread basket we are hoping you’ll make for us at some point (when we let you have the pattern!)
Love, twit twoo!
Oh what lovely fabrics! I love owls, so I’d love to win this.

Hope your enjoying the fabulous Olympics! And that you get some help for your crochet problem- sorry I can’t help but my skills don’t stretch to that x
Great fabrics! I’ve used Fabric Inspirations before and had great service too! Thanks for the heads up on the free postage offer!
