Saturday we say goodbye to SPOOL – the physical store (do look for another week online very soon, at KICK ASS PRICES!) and we thought it would be fun to giveaway some fabric as a way of saying thank you for all of your support over the last three years.
We are so very excited about the expanded direction we will be taking BAQS and we will have more on that later. For now, just know that there is some really cool stuff coming including weekly giveaways, livecasts, video interviews with the people you want to know and more. Until then… let’s have some fun and give away two boxes stuffed with fabric!
One box is filled with amazing “SPOOL- Style” Â batiks… bright, colorful, embodying everything SPOOL was about.
The other is filled with a variety of quilting cottons that I am sure will make you smile for days after opening it.
Each box is 15 yards of fabric plus some fun BAQS swag!
Leave a comment  letting us know which box makes your heart beat faster and tell us what YOU would like to see BAQS doing… I want to come visit you and party!
We will draw for the winner on SUNDAY the 16th! Â Â Comments are now closed … winners were picked and notified! Â Watch for our next giveaway very soon!!


I love both stacks but the bright batiks really call my name! Sorry to hear about the store closing but I am excited to hear about what is coming up next!

Batiks have my heart on this one but….. if you’re stuck with the other lot I would gladly take them off your hands!
You SHOULD come to Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada! Winter is on it’s way so you might freeze your bad ass off!

I am drawn to the batiks and when I sought out your store while in Chattanooga for a conf in 2014…you pointed out I should sew what I’m drawn to. So now I do…and look for baq wherever I go…thank you!

Batiks! and Hell yeah after 4 trips to the store I’m putting my name in the hat for them. I think you and Flaun should use Les’ frequent flyer miles and take your show on the road.

I would choose the prints because I see so many of the fun fabrics that were always plentiful at Spool. Bicycles, houses, people and fun flowers. Visiting Chattanooga will no longer be as much fun. So sad to see your shop close.

Love the batiks. I would love to see you have an old fashioned quilting bee where we all hand sew on the same quilt. {smh}

I like both collections, but one of the things I most enjoyed when I was able to stop by your shop was your personally curated prints, so those would be my choice.
As for the future, I would like to see the BAQS hit the road (and I don’t just mean the sticker on my car!). It would be fun to see travel king trunk shows or to see you vend at some of the major shows (just out of spite!). Whatever you end up doing, though, I look forward to reading about it or watching your videos. I’m sad that Spool is closing, but happy that you are making the choice that works best for you!

The bright and very bold fabric on the right.
How did you come up with your name and the story of it.

I love the rich, intense colors in the stack on the right. I’d love to see you teach, lecture (on Badass values) tell us about yourownbadass-self. How did you come to be such a badass?

I would love to win the quilting cottons with the 2 “pearl bracelet” fabrics. I am curious what the next BAQS adventures are and hope to see your speak at a local quilt guild in Georgia

Both of them truly make my heart sing. That’s why I love quilting so much is you can do whatever you’re in the mood to do and you don’t have to be pigeonholed into one type of fabric. I would love to see BAQS travel and do some tops at quilt Guild’s. Come to Wisconsin! I’m pretty sure Trish could book you at the Lodi quilt Guild

Both boxes of fabric are wonderful and would make great quotes. Probably would use which ever one I received to make charity quilts for the Ronald McDonald house in Coumbia, SC and the NICU unit. Would love any tutorials and a visit from you!

Oh my, choices? They are both beautiful. You know I’m a bit partial to batiks….. But, I think I would be best to say the Smiley Pack! That one has fillers for some of the gaps in my stash! Will miss seeing you all and look forward to watching for your next adventures!

Two fabulous collections, hard to choose one!! I’m leaning towards he bright cottons because I need more of color hose cheery fabrics in my stash for some projects I have in mind. I will look forward to your next venture. I Would love to see some unusual home accessory patterns! Thanks and Good luck.
