Laurenhttp://www.etsy.com/listing/62582101/japanese-fabric-lilo-and-stitch-pink
to make something for my sister-in-law, who is expecting twins. Stitch is her fave Disney character, and the Japanese fabrics are way cuter than anything I’ve seen in US shops.

BryannaWow, This and That From Japan has been a favorite shop on mine on Etsy for so long now! If I won I would definitely spend it all on fabric! First in the cart would be the Bags and Umbrellas print in Pink! Adorable!! Oooo my fingers are crossed!
BryannaOh wow — I totally agree — this is one of the best giveaways ever! Love the Japanese fabrics and trims. Not sure what I would make, although my mind goes first to cute messenger bag. Love the huge selection of books in the store — I’ve always wanted to pick up some Japanese books for inspiration, so maybe I would get that along with some of the linen prints!
The Hungry CrafterI would make a little blankie for my baby boy and perhaps a skirt for my girl…
CatherineI have been subscribed for quite a while through RSS, but this is the first time I have entered a give-away. I just couldn’t resist, since I am in the market for some cute fabric to make the double-duty dry erase board you provided a tutorial on months ago! I can’t wait to see it decorate my new office at the first “grown-up” job after finally finishing studying, and think one of the Matryoshka doll prints would be just perfect for the project! Of course, the fabribs are such a bargain I could also score some cute ribbons for my hair and some stamps to make some fabulous custom stationary – ooh, so many possibilities!
KatI love the stamps and stickers! I would use them to dress up packages, especially with Christmas coming!
Emilyi also subscribe to your blog. thank you!
