The first person to correctly comment on the designer and name of the fabric line that was inspired by this feedsack will win a Moda Bella Solids color card and a custom FQ bundle from my stash.
I will also draw a random winner from everyone who comments for a charm and scrap pack from my stash.
DRAWING WILL BE HELD SUNDAY, JUNE 13, 2010.
Good luck!
WINNER UPDATE!!
Megan of Lucy and Norman correctly guessed Summer in the City Birds from the Urban Chiks line! Congratulations Megan. Please email me your address and I will get your loot ready to go!
Here is a photo showing the Brids print with the vine background that matches the feedsack print exactly! Neat, huh? Another feedsack comparison found and shown right here on I'm Just a Guy Who Quilts!
Everyone who comments from now till Sunday still has a chance to win a charm and scrap pack from my stash!
Thanks for playing!

Is it Stencil Flower in Turquoise and White by Rosemarie Lavin?
Love it, regardless!
Kaffe Fassett silhouette rose?
Summer in the City birds!
DARN! Megan beat me! SITC!!!!Darn, darn, darn! (blowing a raspberry at the screen). I love this idea for a giveaway though! I may have to steal it!
I knew it was the Summer In The City birds!! I already have a color card, though, so I thought I'd let someone else win. Wouldn't say no to a charm pack, though!!
Congrats, Megan :)

Summer in the City, by Urban Chicks
It is Summer in the City Birds.
Wow Megan, you were fast! Congrats! Thanks for another great giveaway Ryan
The big prize was won, but I'll throw my comment in the hat for the secondary prize. I'm not proud. Kathie L in Allentown
Well I didn't have the right answer anyway, but I can always use a charm pack! I hate cutting & I'm beginning to think I'm the only one in the worls who hasn't won a GO cutter!
Man, I wish I had known! I'd love a Bella solids color card (and a bundle). I really like bella soilds over Kona. Neat giveaway idea. :)
Well, I'm so new to designer fabrics and lines, that I was at a loss! But, I'm up for the random drawing!
Wow that was fast... But I don't think I would have guessed anyway. Good job Megan!
Wish I was faster to post the answer..., oh well, maybe I'd get the scraps and charm packs!
Wow - you guys are FAST! But scrap packs and charms are always awesome too!
I knew it before I saw the answer. LOVE the Summer in the City line so I was wondering where the birds were. ;)
Wow Megan was quick! Congratulations Megan! That line of fabric is so nice, love the birds and the blue. Sharonj.
That was quick! great line!
Bummer, I recognized it right away, too late to the game as usual!
I am always amazed at people who can name fabric names and designers at the drop of a hat - one day, I'd like to be able to do that!!!
So, how do we feel about designers being heavily "inspired" by vintage fabric? This jury is out.
Well, man......Megan was just too darned fast.
I'd still like the other prizes tho. *S*
what an awesome feedsack! did you win the fabric on ebay or just see it there? its lovely! what a great blue!! congrats to megan! thanks for my chance at runner's up prize!
Great giveaway and the fabric is lovely. I am too late to guess what it is but would like to be in the draw for a charm and scrap pack from your stash.
Great fabrics. Great giveaway! I did not recognize the fabric line, but it sure is pretty.
Is it weird that I kind of like the original better? I need to start researching vintage feedsacks so I can spend even MORE money on quilting fabric...ha ha.
Wow. I think I am going to have to look up summer in the city. It looks like a great line.
i totally love the original!! Where do you find this stuff??
Cute fabric! Thanks!
Wow, I'm super slow I guess!! Anyhoo, beautiful fabric. Love
-Love-Love the colors!!!
Wow, to be able to recognize it so fast - great
Please add my name for the secondary drawing
I love both fabrics. The original is just as stunning as the inspired fabric.
I like the fabrics, red & blue are a couple of my favorites.
I guess I'm too late for the first giveaway, but please include me for the second. ;)
Congrats to Megan for winning! I would never have come up with the right answer! lol
HBugs,
Kerry
I sure didn't know what that fabric was similar to, but good for you Megan!
I'd love to enter to win your contest Ryan.
You always use such beautiful fabrics so a scrap pack would be a lot of fun. I'd love to be entered!
I had no idea but it is very cool, I love the new version with the birds!
A charm and a scrap pack! I'm so there! Thanks for the second chance for those of us slow on the uptake.
I don't have a hope of knowing the fabric (and I won't cheat and write someone else's answer down) but I'd love to be in the running for something from your stash.
Thanks for sharing.
Well, though I joined too late to enter the feedsack look-a-like drawing, please enter me for your other drawing of a charm pack and scraps from your stash. I KNOW it will be pretty pretty. Thank you for your blog. I really enjoy your quilting perspective. mlwright29 (at) hotmail (dot) com
That is one sharp eye you have there! I remember in school they used to tell us that fashion repeated itself every 25 years, so maybe fabric is the same!
Sandy A
That's so cool! Loved that line :)
Thanks for this great giveaway!
Great contest, and thanks for the runner up give away :)
SheilaC
I'd love a chance to win a "runner up" prize!
These are so pretty!
There's really nothing new under the sun, is there? Thanks for the chance to win a runner-up prize!!
I love how you show the fabrics that are inspiring todays designers. You are like a detective!
Thanks for the generous giveaway!!
woo! I did not recognize that fabric at all!! Congrats Megan!
Great giveaway...thanks Ryan!
Thanks for your generosity!!
Wow I love that print!!!! Congrats Megan, nice giveaway Ryan...Thanks!
Well I was beaten to it on the answer (and I confess I didn't know it anyway) but a charm pack and a scrap pack can never be ignored so I'm IN! Yeah baby!
I had no clue. I'm new to quilting but I'm learning and loving! Thanks for a chance to win! Love your blog, too!
What a neat challenge, and congrats to Megan. Thanks for the chance to win a great giveaway from your stash.

Very fun idea.....I love the colors in both fabrics and how they compliment one another. Thanks for the chance to win.
I'm coming late to the party, but I was never gonna guess correctly anyway. I do love those vintage feedsacks, though.
I've always liked that print, and it's cool to know what inspired it!

I love that fabric. Congrats to Megan for getting it right. Thanks for the great giveaway.
Very neat about the feedsacks. Thanks for the giveaway!
Would like to be included in the giveaway.
So...what you're really saying is find a vintage print, slap a few birds on it, and you have a hit? LOL :) This is a fun game you're playing!
I have to agree with Michelle...I think I just need to find some vintage stuff out of copyright and just rip it off! I love how you are finding the vintage stuff and then showing the new "knocked off version" that is cool...I would just prefer for the designers to be a little more "original!"
Congrats Megan!
Love that City Birds fabric.
Thanks for concidering me in the give away :-0
What's old is new again! I just love fabric and seeing vintage come into vogue is so fun.
While searching yesterday I went online and happened upon a beautiful feedsack I had to buy... so thank you for what may be another fabric addiction! ;) I love the inspiration and the new design. Both are magnificent.
I totally love how you've been showing the vintage feedsack inspiration - it's just so neat!
Wish I was better at this kind of stuff. But I'm good at working with charms!
The fun begins huh?! Yeay!!!
Congratulations to Megan! I never would have guessed that, and I actually have a charm pack of Summer in the City in my stash!
joan
I love your vintage/modern comparisons. It'a fun to guess and cool to see vintage designs renewed.
You have such an eye for these!
Keep 'em comin'!
Jaclyn
wooooo!
i love charm packs!
of corse!
thanks!
real feedsack envy here.
I really like this fabric, love all the bird fabric that's out now.
Congratulations to Megan!
I have no idea what it is, but I do love it, gorgeous print.
Debbie
What's not to like about birdies?? Keeping fingers crossed! Great blog, BTW!!!
Such an eagle eye to spot that... fun contest idea!
Love to see where designers get their "inspiration"... and hope to win "second prize"!
I was wondering along the same lines as KerryQ and a few others -- to me, the modern "interpretation" looks like an out-n-out copy of the original with birds added for good measure.
Way to go Megan!
