I’m so pleased that my bacon and eggs chevron apron is in the Spring 2014 issue of Modern Patchwork. I had so much fun creating this apron for Lily Gonzales-Creed’s Fall Market booth and I am so excited that it gets to live on in print. When I came up with the bacon and eggs apron, I knew that it would add a fun touch of whimsy to my modern country kitchen. Not too country, not too modern, but just right.
To share in my excitement and join in the spirit of Sew Mama Sew’s Giveaway Days, I’m giving away a copy of Modern Patchwork’s Spring 2014 issue along with five fat quarters of select prints from Lily’s Farm to Fork line with Windham Fabrics (including the infamous bacon print). Please comment below and tell me what your favorite thing is in your kitchen and what you’d like to make with Lily’s Farm to Fork fabric. I’ll pick one comment at random and send this fun little bundle your way. And yes, I will ship internationally. Giveaway ends Friday, May 16 at 5 pm PST. Thanks to Sew Mama Sew for hosting Giveaway Day. This is fun!
That is so creative! Love it!
What fun fabrics, I would make a picnic blanket with those.
My favourite thing in my kitchen is my iron, it’s on my kitchen work top and it’s where I iron all my fabrics.. does that count or is that cheating? :o)
Failing that, it would have to be my kettle – got to have my coffee to start the day.
Thanks for the opportunity to win.
My favourite thing in the kitchen…the kettle. One can never have too many cups of tea to get you through a day of sewing!
I have been meaning to make myself an apron for ages and these fabrics would be perfect.
I love my Ninja Blender Maybe I should make a cover for it
My favorite thing in my kitchen is my dessert! I don’t know what I’d make yet as that bacon fabric is giving me all sorts of ideas.
My favorite things in my kitchen are the valances I made… like my gas stove too. I would probably make an apron with the fabric. Love the eggs on your apron.
hah this is too cute! I’m not positive how I would use the fabric, but definitely something for my husband/kitchen – he LOVES bacon! and I love my food processor…
My favorite thing in my kitchen is… my husband!! I love that he loves to cook and we love cooking together! I’ve been wanting to make “his” and “hers” apron and this fabric is perfect for my bacon-loving hubby!
This is followed closely by my coffee maker and hazelnut creamer– yum!
So fun! I need to make some new potholders so these would be perfect. And perhaps a little apron for my daughter as well! Thanks for the opportunity.
I would love to make one of those hanging “old lady” towels for the front of my stove. How fun and cute it would be to have BACON and EGGS in the kitchen and on display all the time. Again, CONGRATS KIM AND LILY!
Beautiful day here. I love my kitchenaid mixer and I would probably make some placemats
My coffee maker.
I really like the cabinets and farm sink in my kitchen. I do not like the appliances and I am saving to buy new ones. I am in the process of making table linens and these farm to fork fabrics would be a perfect addition to the project.
My favorite thing in my kitchen is a framed cross stitch with a rooster, a chicken, and a chick on it, that says “This is an equal opportunity kitchen”. I love it because it serves as a reminder that I am not the only one capable of making dinner or doing dishes, and they can feel free to help out
I would definitely make an apron with the fabrics. That bacon print is so so so great! On a related note: I once made bacon chocolate chip cookies, and they were awesome, and we often make pancakes with bacon pieces in them!
Love the apron. Congratulation on your magazine submission! Just adore the zigzag edge. I think breakfast placemats would be fun, with a matching apron would be even more fun. Thank you for the give away.
My favorite thing in my kitchen is the windows! I love being able to look outside while I cook! I would love to make some new pot holders or an apron!
I love my Keurig coffee maker. That cup of cappuchino in the morning gets me started. The fabric would make cute lunch bags.
thanks for the chance
cute!
I LOVE Lilly’s designs.
Favorite thing in my kitchen: My beautiful wondering industrial sized fire engine red kitcenaide mixer, and my colorful assortment of fiestaware!
What I would make with her line: A cover for my mixer, that AWESOME chevron apron, Some place mats for my breakfast bar, and a casserole dish cover.
I love my new keurig. That great fabric would make cute placemats and accents on kitchen towels.
My favorite thing in the kitchen (besides the food!) would have to be my mircowave! I use it all the time!
I would like to use this fabric in a I spy quilt.
That apron is just plain awesome! Love how you used the print to make that chevron and that you left the edge zig-zag. As for my favorite thing my kitchen, I think it’s gotta be my random vintage pyrex & Indiana glass pieces. They rarely make a showing outside of my cabinets, but that’s okay. I know where each one of those treasures are hidden. As for what I’d make with Lily’s fabric, I’ve always wanted a casserole carrier – so maybe that and some potholders & apron.
ah! i love the farm to fork collection! i already made a dress out of the bacon fabric. i bought the first four yards off the bolt the second they arrived at my local fabric shop. (they had literally JUST been unloaded from the truck, not even out of the plastic yet!)
my favorite thing in my kitchen is the big barn door hanging on the wall where we hang our pots, pans, spatulas, etc. it helps make up for the fact that we have literally zero cabinets.
I love that magazine – I have been eyeing it at the local store. I would love to make a wall hanging for my breakfast nook. I have so many ideas – the fabric is very inspirational! Thanks for your generous spirit!
My favorite thing in the kitchen is my dishwasher
I’d love to make a tote bag with the pretty fabrics. Thanks for the Giveaway!
Let me just say if I were wearing a bacon apron I’d be followed around by my son, husband and collie. I’d be sooo popular! ;-> I love my new kitchen and would use the fabric to edge dish towels to hang! not use and maybe some pretty pot holders. My favorite thing in my kitchen is my 27 yr. old Osterizer blending that was a wedding shower gift from my Godparents. Congratulations on being published. Thank you for the generous giveaway! ;-> Toni Anne

That magazine looks like alot fun.I live in small town and miss out on alot of the cool modern quilt magazines. I love your bacon and eggs apron. I am kind of known for adding as much bacon as I can to any recipe I make, so that bacon fabric is just awesome, and since we live on a farm, the whole lne of Farm to Fork fabrics would be appropriate. Thanks for a fun giveway.
Cute fabric. I like the mix of modern and homespun. We just changed from electric to gas and got a new range. Love cooking with it. I would love to make some pot holders/hot mats and trim some dishtowels! I have a modern/retro lime green kitchen.

I love my red kitchenaid mixer! Those fabrics would make a cute patchwork hot pad or mug rug
