BLOG GIVEAWAY: 160 yards fabric rag yarn!


You could win this assortment of 160 yards of fabric rag yarn!
A value of $15.00 plus shipping and handling!

What is fabric rag yarn?
Fabric yarn is meant to compliment ANY of my RAG BAG patterns you see listed in my shop. OR, they are just perfect for any of your rag craft projects!
Approx 18-20 strips are in each bag.
Each of the strips is 1" wide.
Total yardage is approx. 160 yards!
There is enough fabric here to make any of the rag bags. The feedback I receive from knitters and crocheters with the yardage is that they have about enough to make 1-1.5 bags with each "bag of fabric"...Of course, it depends on how tightly you knit/crochet and what size pattern/bag you are making!

How can I win, you ask? It's easy...here's how!
Visit my new online shop, heatherknitz and do the following 2 things:

1. Choose your favorite item in my shop and report it here in the comments thread!
2. You be the designer...look through my current listings and make me at least ONE SUGGESTION on what I should add to my line of products:)

*Anyone in the U.S. 18 years of age or older can join!
*The winner will receive the fabric rag yarn seen above via US mail!
*ONE winner will be selected using random.org!
*Do all of this by Friday, February 27th, 2009!
Contest ends at 11:50 e.s.t on the 27th!
Good Luck,
Heather

    I love the messenger rag bag. It is soo cute! I think that you should add some cute rugs or scarves made from these rags. It would be adorable.

    My favorite item is the pattern for the felted pompom bucket bag. I think it would also be nice if you had more solids and darker color choices in your fabric rag yarn. Thanks for the contest!

    This is a very nice site. My favorite are the ragbags. Since I like colorful whimsical items I think your fabric strips would be great in a weaved wall decoration.

    I really enjoyed your bookmarks. First time i have seen anything like them and lightbulbs went off in my head as to what a great idea for my daughter, who at 7, can blow through some bookmarks that we find occasionally around the house!
    loved your site. don't know if i have a suggestion for anything to add. i enjoyed my visit!

    I love the turtle hair clips...super cute. I think you should add (along with cool fabric strip braided rugs/coaster/trivets) patchwork skirt patterns for children. Kindof a different direction than what you have, but it'd be fun and exciting!

    I love the heart mini rag wreath. I am not a designer, but I would be thrilled if you made the pattern for making rag wreaths available on your site. Thank you for having this giveaway.

    Heather - you have a beautiful site! I simply LOVE the felted light green and pink handbag! I love felting - it always looks funny to me while I'm working on it, but they always turn out so wonderfully!

    I would like to suggest that you add a line of toddler/kids stuffed toys (frogs, bears, boats, cars, flowers, etc). My son who is 2, and my niece who is 12 both love crochet'd stuffed animals, and I think if they could be felted, they would be amazing!

    Please enter me in your contest - I'm very crafty and would love the chance to put your fabric rag yarn to good use (and learn a thing or two at the same time!).

    Thanks, Wendi

    I think the #307 multi button headband hair wrap is great! Looking through your items, I noticed there weren't any St. Patrick's Day items, and I know that my daughter would love something like that. Thanks!
