When I think of gingham, I think of tablecloths for homestyle meals and picnics. It's a warm, comfy feeling!
The first dress I made entirely by myself, with only sewing machine supervision, was a red and white gingham shift dress in 1964!
Gingham reminds me of picnics of course and then lumberjacks. Apurrenhage@gmail.com
Gingham reminds me of my childhood
My whole business is centred around gingham. I love it's classic and timeless nature which always reminds me of homeyness. It reminds me of how far we have come and how far we still have to go.
I think of my Grandma's "housedresses". I don't think people wear such things anymore.
Gingham is so fresh. Have loved it forever! You are so sweet to have these giveaways. My funds are tight and I hope and pray I win one time.
My bedroom as a teenager was pink and green gingham. I go right back to high school when I see those checks in pink and green!
Red and black buffalo checks always remind me of high school football games. Everybody trying to stay warm under a flannel blanket. Thanks for the giveaway. grinnie1961 at gmail dot com
Thanks for the giveaway! Gingham reminds me of picnic tablecloths and the fun of a picnic!
Well, gingham reminds me of some plastic tablecloth at my grand's home. Now I realize it was really ugly, but it was perfect for my child's eyes. Sweet memories.
I love gingham. I could do some cool embroidery or chicken scratch on these. It would make a cute quilt��
Summertime as a child
I adore gingham! It reminds me of picnics. Also if it's tiny navy gingham it reminds me of the little outfit each of my babies wore home from the hospital when they were born.
Grandma's table cloths!
I would LOVE these. Gingham reminds me of a lot of things, but these days it makes me think of my friend Jenny's amazing work!
Loooove gingham and they remind me of a country picnic!!

I think of my home in the 70’s. And my future quilt!

Gingham reminds me of years ago when my mom did smocking with it.
Gingham reminds me of Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz and her little dog Toto. I loved the movie and wanted to be Dorothy for Halloween, but it never worked out that I could get the costume together!

I would say Picnics but I made a baby quilt that I cross stitched Noan's Arc across the checks. The quilt took forever but I loved it.
Gingham always makes me think of my childhood. At one point, as a little girl, my room was green and yellow gingham. My favorite green gingham blanket even came with me to college. That blanket was incredibly soft and my first born son discovered it as well. He used it until it was in shreds. Such great memories and all that just from seeing gingham!! Thanks for the chance of the giveaway.
Gingham reminds me of the dress my mum made for the school play when I was about 9, so gorgeous, I think she still has it at her house! :)
And I'll regram on IG :)
Gingham reminds me of childhood picnics with a gingham tablecloth spread out on the grass.
Gingham...that is happiness all over, remembering grandmother, some sewing and picnics... Oh pure happiness. So much to love about this fabric!
Gingham reminds me of school summer dresses, cafe table cloths and for some reason Doris Day! What a lovely giveaway.
Gingham reminds me of Anne of Green Gables! I think she must have had dresses made of gingham (in a colour to suit her red hair)
It always reminds me of table cloth at home but I would love to use them for cloth making now.
Gingham has a real 60's vibe in my book! We had school uniforms and sun hats made from it when I was a little girl. And also I participated in a Gingham Blog Hop back in 2012, where I made a gingham table runner. I am admiring it while I type this! Thanks for the giveaway! I'd love to win it!
Gingham reminds me of my 1960's netball tunic,red and white check, very happy days!

Love that sweet, old fashioned (to me) bundle. Gingham always reminds me of an apron my grandmother wore. Thanks for the chance to win. momoftana at yahoo dot com
Gingham curtains always hung in our kitchen when I was growing up. My mom would change the color of the curtains instead of choosing a paint color. Haha
oh gingham is aprons and dresses and towels on the line... big open green spaces and farms! I grew up in the midwest of the US so to me it kind of feels like home, since it makes me think of farmland!
My sister's wedding. She had a picnic styled lunch with gingham table cloths and little bows on the Pimms stirrers. Was gorgeous!
Oops....charlotte.e.pike@gmail.com

Gingham always reminds me of school summers dresses and not being able to get them back on after swimming lessons!! (And the gingham altar in Bake Off!)

I remember growing up with gingham. In kindergarten, I had a deep green gingham dress, I had later had a black and brown blouse with embroidery and for my Christmas concerts in high school my mom sewed me a long dress in green gingham. I love gingham because I grew up with it and because it reminds me of my mom.
I really LOVE gingham, any size, any color! It brings back memories of Grandma's aprons, picnic cloths, and patchwork table cloths. I am so glad to see it returning in fabric, i.e. Lori Holt's vintage quilts and accessories.
Thank you.

Gingham reminds me of lumberjacks!
Gingham reminds me of summer...dresses, shorts, tops
It reminds me of the first thing I ever sewed, a pinny and a silly hat for home economics when I started in the senior school what seems like hundreds of years ago. We all had to make a pinny and hat in turquoise gingham and then embroider them before we were allowed to do any cookery lessons. I missed half of the cookery lessons because it took me so long to finish my pinny. (i have got a bit faster now)
I have retweeted and shared on facebook
