It is so French.
Can’t you just see yourself in the south of France, eating cheese and drinking wine.
I know I can. I’m ready to go who’s with me, raise your hand?
This four step fat quarter gradation packet – Lavender LOVE- is your ticket to paradise. I’ll even tuck in a little lavender sprig from the garden to make you feel ready for the trip. .

To tell you the truth, Frieda, I don't tolerate scents well. So, I don't have any opinion on lavender. But, those purples are gorgeous and I don't even like purple, LOL!
I would love to be in the south of France at the moment! especially eating cheese and drinking wine! Instead I'm in the UK, it's cold and raining and I'm wondering what on earth I can rustle up for lunch!
I love the lavender fabrics by the way! I think they're my favourites so far!
Lavender reminds me of when I was in the south of France back when I was in high school. The lavender fields really do look like the photos you see.
I adore lavender. I think it smells so peaceful. LOL....I can't explain that but it is soft and comforting and I just love it. I love the lavender fabrics also. Mmmmm.
I always think of my dad, the gardener. I have always taken a little patch of his lavender plant with me wherever I move. So sentimental thoughts when I think of lavender and purple.
As always-beautiful irises and beautiful purple fabrics.
Lavender reminds me of my Aunt Mary. It was her favorite color and the fragrance was always present in her home. Thanks, Frieda!
I am always ready to return to France! And I love irises!
Lavender is such a fresh smell and the colour too is very inviting.
Soap! Clean.
Love that range of colors with the little chartruese accent.
Wow...A trip to France!!!!
Great giveaway...o the giveaway is for the fabric...well that's sweet too!! Thanks for all the chances this week.
BTW...I became a follower...but I have you on my blog list for forever...and that's more important for me.
I tried a lavender plant by the back door, but after a couple years my brown thumb did it in. Lavender in quilts last longer! I had thought I was a follower, but when I checked... anyway, now I really am. Thanks for the chance to win.
Lavender reminds me of sachets we made out of handkerchiefs when we were little girls. We would tuck them in our sock and underwear drawers. I think we had some that grew in our back yard.
Lavender is my favorite scent. It's smell is clean & dreamy! I have 3 lavender plants in my flower beds & can't resist plucking a piece every time I walk by just to smell it for a little while. Most of my lotions, etc are lavender too. So some lavender graded fabric would be a welcome addition! Great giveaway - thanks for the chance to win.
Well I have the same problem as Debbie, blogger #1, the Scent of lavender makes me sneeze and cough, but I do love the color, esp. lavender blue..remember the song, "Lavender blue, dilly dilly, lavender blue..."ok. i date myself. Hope i win.
Lavender is one of my favorite scents and reminds me of my Grandmother's flower garden. All those purple are so pretty! Thanks for the opportunity to enter another one of your great giveaways!!
The smell of lavendar, well I can't explain what it does to/for me. Awesome. LOVE purple/lavender/plum all of it.
I have to say that purples and chartreuse are my all time favorite colors together.
I love the scent of lavender. It reminds me of sachets and also a fabric origami bird I make sometimes that is filled with lavender.
Lavender has been my favorite scent since I discovered it as a teenager! I used to buy these English Lavender soaps that I found in a local shop and can't find anymore. They were an extravagance out of my little pittance I earned as a part-time sales girl at the local fabric shop, but well worth it. Now, whenever I smell lavender, I go all the way back to sixteen - heaven!!!!
Oh - and I'm a new follower too!!! Looking forward to getting to know you!
I love the smell of lavender, it is so relaxing. Love the beautiful fabrics too!
Lavender reminds me of my mother...who used to have little lavender sachet packets that she tucked into her dresser drawers!
I think Ahhhhh..and relax just a little.
Lavender is a beautiful scent, and being a Leap Year Baby, purple is a favorite of mine!!!
What a beautiful wall hanging! When I smell lavender I always thing of my grandmother, she loved it. Thanks for a wonderful giveaway!
Lavender is a peaceful scent...and I love all things purple.
I think of summer! The fabrics are gorgeous!
Oh, wow! Lavender makes me THINK of my mom - her favorite color! Love the name of your blog - didn't know that was a favorite thing of mine to do till I was an adult and didn't have woods around anymore to walk in! :-(
I would love to go to France and eat cheese and drink wine! Lavender has such a beautiful aroma, it reminds me of gardens and sachets and just softly screams femininity to me. The fabrics are gorgeous, as is the quilt. Please count me in!
I love using lavender essential oils in my iron for ironing clothes. Such a wonderful scent!
I love the smell of lavender so I planted 4 varieties in my flower gardens this year. At the end of the season I took cuttings and put them in a Christmas tin as a table decoration. Lavender is also a flattering color for blondes, and a blonde I am.
When I smell lavender I think of my friend Sherri, who loved essential oils. Beautiful lavenders you have there!

Purple - iris - is my all time favorite color. Your quilt is beautiful!
Lavender reminds me of my Dad who years ago went to Ireland and brought me back lavender cream. Gorgeous fabrics!
Lovely lavenders! I signed up, but I'm not here for a trip. I was reading Wanda's blog and saw the loveliness she got. I recognized you right away as someone I followed a while ago. I'm baaaack.
I lived in the south of France for three years, among the lavender and roses and yes, I look at your fabric gradation and could definitely picture myself back there ... I'd love to WIN this one.
Moi!!! lavender reminds me of my grandma - she had it planted outside the side door..... it would go with the yellow!!!

LOVELY FABRICS+LOVELY SCENTS!
BOTH SO BEAUTIFUL!
THANKS SO FOR SHARING!
I love lavender. I have some growing in my garden and stroke my hand through it each time I walk past to let the scent waft through the air. I dried the sprigs and shared them with my family and friends. It was my mother's favorite scent, so it evokes wonderful memories.
I love the lavender fabrics! Thanks for the opportunity to win.
I always think of sitting around with my sisters and my best friend making my wedding favors, little pouches of lavendar with lace and ribbons - can't get too much more sentimental than that!
Lavendar makes me think of my garden where I grow it and dry it for in my closets and in my bedrooms especially the guest room where I keep a bouquet to assure a good nights sleep.
Love this packet of this color!
Grandma's dresser drawer. She had these little sachets in there. It's also where she kept the dollar bills she gave us kids whenever we came to visit.
I love lavender. I place little packets of it into the folds of my quilts when I give them away or when I out them into the linen closet. I would love to go to France. Infact my Husband and I were dicussing going to Europe nect year for Christmas. Thank you for a great giveaway
By the number of comments, I would say that this set is quite popular! :-)
They are downright gorgeous.
I love the clean, fresh scent of lavender so much that I tried to grow it...without much luck unfortunately!
the purples are to die for........
lavender reminds me of a good friend that has an old fashioned garden and raises lavendar
I love lavender. I have it growing all around my rose garden. Beautiful fabric.
I love lavender. I have about 12 plants that I try to keep thriving. I use lavender spray on all my ironing and of course my soaps are lavender scented. I adore it.
