Island Batik Ambassador Box #2 Unboxing ~ Second Look

Did you see my Island Batik Ambassador unboxing video yesterday?  Today I'm showing photos of everything so you can get a second look.  This is the Fancy Feathers Collection, plus two coordinating fabrics.  I'll be using this fabric in my August blog hop project.  You can see my project soon, on August 12th.  Be sure to mark your calendar.  I'll be giving away some of this gorgeous fabric as part of the hop.

Disclosure:  The items in this post were given to me by Island Batik and industry partners at no cost to me.
This bundle coordinates with the above fabrics, part of Island Batik's Spring Collection.

This bundle coordinates with the upcoming Summer collections.  

I received two rolls of stash builders.  Look at these amazing colors.  So yummy!

Six yards of Almond.  So generous.  This is a beautiful fabric that will work with any collection.

Four yards each of solid gray, white, and black.  

Surprise fabric for the November blog hop.  I can't show you this until later....

Aurifil sent this gorgeous purple thread set.  It's the Cross River Gorilla collection, meant to bring attention to endangered species.  I'll be making a quilt based on the Cross River Gorilla for one of my challenges.

I received the Split Recs ruler from Deb Tucker's Studio 180 designs. This will be used on the August blog hop project. 

And batting, batting, batting!  Hobbs is so generous to the Ambassadors.  I received Cotton 80/20 Bleached, and Fusible, and Thermore, and

Tuscany Collection Cotton Wool Blend (I've already used this for my Christmas Tree Skirt project),

and a package of Fusible Batting Strips.  Wonderful.  I'm planning on making another rug to use in front of my quilting frame.  I hope I can find the time to fit it into my busy schedule. 

We're doing another ByAnnie.com bag challenge this year.  This is my kit for Divide and Conquer.  I'm so excited.  I can't wait to get started on these.  Have you tried her bag patterns?  They're fabulous!
 
Thanks so much for reading my blog today.  I hope you will check back soon to see what I'm making for the second half of the year with Island Batik, Aurifil, Hobbs, Studio180, ByAnnie.com, Schmetz Needles, and Accuquilt.
