Have you started your Christmas crafting yet? I’ve been planning some projects for a while and find November is the perfect month to start sewing. Overdale Fabrics recently got in touch and asked if I would like to try some of their Christmas range. They sell some lovely festive Fat Quarter bundles, so of course I said yes please!
I’ve always enjoyed the Scandi influence. I have no idea why the colours red and white are known as Scandi but they go so well together, especially at this time of year. We honeymooned across Denmark, Sweden and Norway so we’re big fans of Scandinavian style. Unfortunately I can’t claim to have a beautiful minimalist interior like you see across Scandinavian countries. I would love wooden floorboards, white walls and big windows but instead make do with our cluttered family home. Thankfully Overdale Fabrics sent me their Scandi Christmas Red bundle of 4 Fat Quarters so I could bring a little colour into our home this Christmas.
This bundle of 4 Fat Quarters contains 100% cotton fabrics that co-ordinate perfectly. The patterns have a Scandi Christmas feel and are printed on unbleached cotton. The fabrics are perfect for many different festive craft projects from stockings to quilts, bunting to Christmas ornaments, festive place mats and quilts.
Win a bundle of Christmas fabrics
Today I have teamed up with Overdale Fabrics to offer one bundle of 4 Fat Quarters to one of my readers. There are 4 fabrics featuring deer, polar bears, gingerbread men and a pretty Scandi pattern. These are perfect for your Christmas crafting needs!
For your chance to win please answer the question and leave a blog comment via the Rafflecopter widget below. The competition ends on Sunday 27th November and the winners name will appear on this post. Find more competitions at The Prize Finder.

November 11, 2016 at 11:33 pmI had a big declutter last weekend and found a stash of really nice fabric – one cream from shortening curtains by half and one a claret red left over from making curtains so I’m sitting looking at them thinking I may run up some simple drawstring gift bags that can be reused (and will probably be quicker than wrapping for me because I get so hung up on making it perfect!).
