Hello!
It is a beautiful vintage inspired floral collection with some wonderful bold stripes and motifs as well....
and this will be the first time fabric from Cabbages and Roses
will be available in America.
The fabric is expected to ship today to fine quilting and fabric stores nationwide
and internationally.
Cabbages and Roses recently sent me three different designs from their new Northcote Range collection....
I was asked to come up with a project using the fabric they sent me....
We are also giving away the projects we created with their fabric today.....
Details at the bottom of the post....
I thought it would be fun to put a Cabbages and Roses inspired party together and use the fabric to make decorations....
We used three yards of Cabbages and Roses fabric to make the two banners and
eight lavender pillows.
I wanted to come up with easy decorating ideas that could be used for a baby shower and or a little girls birthday party...
We (Bethany and I) also made two different kinds of cupcakes,
raspberry cupcakes....
and
red velvet cupcakes.
I will be sure and share the recipes and the cookbooks I got the recipes from in my next post...
My daughter Bethany made the flags from the leftover Cabbages and Roses scraps...
Bethany used lollipop sticks from Walmart and then glued the flags onto the stick.
I think the flags turned out so cute...
We made a total of 8 lavender pillows from the fabric.....
I thought these would make great party favors....
I filled my french pie safe with the lavender pillows and used the pie safe as a drink station.
I strung a banner of nine flags, made from the Cabbages and Roses fabric, above the drink station....
My sister Liz, came up with the idea to make the banners with the Cabbages and Roses material.
Liz also made the banners for me, thanks Liz! : )
Nicole made vanilla flavored Italian Cream Soda.
(I will share the recipe in the next post)
We added blackberries and raspberries to the drink, the berries help add a splash of color...
I tried to keep everything very simple....
I used an antique french compote to hold a few of the cupcakes...
We used simple white ironstone dishes.....
I like the simple lines of these two cake stands....
Liz was able to make two banners with the fabric, each banner contains a total of nine flags.
I strung the second banner along one side of the table....
We added raspberries to some of the cupcakes for extra color.
This line of fabric from Cabbages and Roses costs between $10.00 and $11.00 a yard in fabric stores.
To make the two banners and the 8 lavender pillows you need only three yards of fabric.
The total cost of fabric would be approximately $30.00.
Now for the Giveaway Details.....
One winner will receive a total of eight lavender pillows made from the Cabbages and Roses Fabric.
There will be three 12" x 12" lavender pillows and five 8" x 8" lavender pillows.
The backs of the 8" x 8" lavender pillows are made with antique french linen.
The winner will also receive two banners made from the Cabbages and Roses fabric.
Each banner has 9 flags...

Maria,
Please enter me in the getaway. I have adored Cabbages and Roses fabrics as well as Christina Strutt for many years. I had the chance of visiting Bath 2 years ago but unfortunately arrived too late at her shop and it was closed! If I were lucky enough to win, I would make pillows for my white bed and little lavender filled cushions for my family. I visit your blog and your facebook page a few times a week and your photos are such a source of inspiration. Thank you!

Lavender is the most lovely scent and the fabric you used to make the lavender pillows is sweet. I love your festive banners and wish I could reach inside my computer and help myself to one of your yummy cupcakes. The little flags are adorable.
Thanks for the inspiration.
Hi i would love to be part of your great giveaway. I have to confess that i am a big cabbages and roses fan and my daughter's bedroom is decorated in their fabrics. It would just be lovely to have the pillows to scatter in my bedroom so that when i go to sleep at night i can also enjoy!
Hi Maria! I love the simple way you've decorated the table with the C&R fabric! So bright and pure! I don't know if the giveaway is open worldwide, if so, please count me in. But I really would just say hello to you, 'cause it's a while I don't post a comment on you wonderful blog! pregnancy is quite at the end and I have always a lot of things to do!
Hugs from Italy!
