Design and *WIN* Your Own Car Seat Canopy!!


As I gear up to get the shop going in full swing again (after enjoying the summer relaxing with my babes), I am looking for fresh and new ideas for car seat canopies in the shop.

I need your help picking out new fabric combos!  

Simply visit an online fabric store and come back to leave a comment with the links to your favorite fabric swatches.  The reader that picks out a combo that I absolutely love the most will win a car seat canopy in those fabrics. **Keep in mind that you need at least two different (yet coordinating) fabrics for your canopy.**

So.  A few details.

1.  Fabrics can be picked from ANY online source.  A few suggestions?  Fabric.com, Fabricworm, Raspeberry Creek Fabrics, or Fashionable Fabrics.  Again, these are just suggestions.  As long as I can follow a link back to your fabric choices, they can really come from anywhere!

2.  It's best to keep to cotton, corduroy, flannel and/or minky.

3.  You have 2 weeks to pick fabrics and share!  I will announce a winner on July 20.

4.  And, so sorry, but this little contest is only open to readers in the US.

Any questions?  Leave them below and I'll respond to you asap.  I cannot wait to see what you all come up with!  

Good luck and have fun!!
