Giveaway: New Waverly Modern Essentials Fabric (CLOSED)
This is a first! I'm hosting a giveaway. I've been reluctant for a number of reasons, but most importantly, I've wanted to be sure that brands I feature on Aesthetic Nest are those I genuinely care about and believe that my readers will too. When Waverly contacted me about this I just thought: "yes!"
It's a great coincidence too because I am about to pull out a bolt of Waverly fabric I bought at Joann about three years ago, when I was working on Scarlett's crib bedding, to start her "big girl" bedding! So I've been thinking fondly about Waverly. I didn't know they have a new line of home dec fabrics called Waverly Modern Essentials. It's available exclusively at Joann. It seems to combine all the tradition and quality of Waverly with a fresh modern vibe.
I love what I've seen of their new Fall collection: a bit graphic, a bit pop, some organic imagery thrown in there and even some ethnic motifs. A very fun, contemporary, combination. A little preppy, a little funky. Somehow I'm a sucker for the red, white and blue Americana mix. But I also love the Coral Citrus and Sterling Chartreuse (in the picture below)--I've always loved chartreuse and how often do you see it in fabric? I don't anyway--and with a touch of lilac!? And I really love that there are solids. I can't tell you how many times I've gone hunting, often unsuccessfully, to find a solid to coordinate with a print.
Waverly is offering a generous 10 yards of fabric from their new Modern Essentials line to one Aesthetic Nest reader! That's a $200 value. That's enough to start a room makeover or create a space for a new addition, or remodel an Airstream, or create a stash for some fun new apparel! I've often used home decorator fabric for clothing. Wouldn't a simple shift dress be cute in one of these prints?
You have the week to enter! Just leave me ONE comment and let me know which are your favorite prints (the "Tail Spin" mini blooms? the "Network" graphic, wrought iron motif?) or colorways in this new modern Essentials collection. I'll pick a random number and announce the winner on Monday, October 10th. Then the hard part: you'll have to decide how to compose your free ten yards. It's up to you as long as the minimum cut is 1 yard. So many possibilities!
I'm told the fabric collection is arriving in stores now. You can also take a look at the swatches:
And, for another chance to win, visit the Waverly Facebook page, and enter their giveaway! (You'll need to "Like" the page first.)
Good luck!
UPDATE: I realize I wasn't clear enough in my original post about the comments. Please just leave one comment here and if you'd like another chance at the giveaway you can enter via Waverly's Facebook page. I've deleted the duplicate, FB-oriented, comments below to keep it fair. One entry per person here. Thanks.

1 – 200 of 278 Newer› Newest»I love them all and fortunately I could use either collection in my home. It would be so exciting to win, I have been wanting to update my living space and these fabrics would surely help.
Ohhhhh such nice fabrics!!! My heart is torn! Since we're buying a house in the next few months (our first), I think any collection would be a blessing for us.
Thank you for the blog and the giveaway!
I am having a hard time choosing between Summerscape, Network, and Shine On. Love them all and could put them all to good use! Thanks for the chance to win.

Ohhhh. I love the "Shine On" in Sterling. Loving the whole sterling and chartreuse colorway.
I honestly didn't know that Waverly sold any fabrics other than home deco. I would love to win the Coral Citrus because I need to make a big girl quilt for my Liv.
Thanks for the giveaway!
I love all of the Coral Citrus colorway - especially A little loopy!
I Love the Americana, but since I sew for grangirls and def want them to be HIP and in-style I would choose the chartruese..no wait the Americana- I need something for me.. wow it would be hard to choose. :) thanks for the chance!! LOVVE your site, gives me tons of ideas for my little ones.
I absolutely love the Navy Americana collection. I am so excited that Waverly has come out with new collections. I love their quality!
I love Summerscape, A Little Loopy, and the Network in Plum. Very fun fabrics! I'm pregnant and I'm moving into a bigger place and starting to nest and well our decor leaves a lot to be desired at the moment! I would be so giddy if I got this!
I think Waverly is an awesome pair up for you! I've loved their fabrics for as long as I can remember ~ they compliment your work fabulously ~ a little bit retro, a little bit vintage and a whole lot of nostalgia (for me!), all wrapped up in something that's very current! Torn between Mint Plum A Little Loopy and Famers Market and the Sterling Chartreuse Shine On and Tailspin. Awesome colors and patterns!
They are all gorgeous! But I love the Sterling Chartreuse, especially the Shine On print! Thanks so much for the chance!
How fun! All of the fabrics are wonderful, but I think my faves are tailspin and shine on. We're a military family, so the Americana collection would be SO fun to use! Thanks for the giveaway! =)
It's realy hard to pick just a few, because they all look great. I love the Blue Jay Sunshine colorway - especially Farmer's Market and A Little Loopy along with Glamour and Network. Thanks for highlighting these fabrics on your blog.
I love the Sterling Chartreuse line... all of it! I can't pick just one! What an awesome giveaway, thank you :)

I'm crazy about the sterling chartreuse, shine on! Goodness me.
Tough choice, I'm running to Joanne right now to check them out! Lovin' the Shine On in sterling!
Super giveaway!
The Spring Blue Jay line is beautiful!
Love, love love the Sterling Charteuse!
I like all the color ways! And since I don't have a specific redecorating project in mind at the moment that doesn't make choosing one any easier! The print that most appeals to me is the Tail Spin - Americana, but I see it in a cute little dress with a peter pan collar.
Wow, what a great giveaway!
I really like the Shine On print in any color.
My favorite print is the Wheels N Motion. My girls could definitely find a project for that fabric!
This is so hard becuase I really do love them all but it is pretty amazing how the mint plum and the sterling chartruese just grabbed me right away. i have so many ideas that would work with these fabrics. wow, what an exciting thing to win!!!
I like the summerscape and network prints. What a fantastic collection! Sarah skubinski at mac dot com
oh i love the Blue jay Sunshine and the mint Plum, mix them up for redecorating the family room and kitchen! Thanks!
I love the Wheels in Motion Sterling and the Network Sunshine...so pretty! Thanks for the opportunity!
They are all so lovely :)
But the Tail Spin and the Shine On I like most...or perhaps the Wheel's n Motion?
Aggghhhh, so difficult....
Greetings from Scotland

Oh my goodness...so much to love! What an awesome giveaway...if I had to choose I guess it would be the network-sunshine.
Oh My Goodieness!!! I love ALL of them. I guess if I'm forced to choose just one it would be "Tail Spin".
I love the coral citrus and the navy americana! I love them all really!
I love the little loopy and shine on! Thanks for the giveaway!
The spring ivory collection is my favorite! I could make many a cute thing for our 1 year old girlie's room!
I like the Americana colorway - Shine On being my fave!
The Sterling Chartreuse prints are great! I would get all 10 yards in one fabric and reupholster my couch.
I'm more of a modern girl, so the A Little Loopy in citrus really caught my eye! Lovely collection. :)
I love the summerscape and the little loopy. Especially the little loopy plum.
Oh heavens... I love everything in the Sterling Chartreuse colorway. That combination of muted lovelies NEEDS to be purchased (or won!) Thanks for the gorgeous giveaway!
I love it all! But I think I like shine on from the spring ivory line the most!
Bradysmom17@gmail.com
Oh my....who knew??? I love them all so much ( thanks Waverly), but maybe my fav might be Shine On. Oh, I SEW want to win!!!!
Oh, the fabulousness of it all! The farmer's market plum is oh so dreamy, but the loops...
I love the sterling and chartreuse..I'd so make a couple dresses!
The Americana and the Chartreuse are my favorites, either would be great to have! Thanks for the giveaway!
I am IN LOVE with all the mint plum prints, especially with Farmer's Market and A Little Loopy! I've been meaning to redo my daughters bedroom to give her a new "big girl" room. Thanks for the opportunity to win such beautiful fabrics :)
Wow, what a great way to build up a stash!!! I am loving ALL the "A Little Loopy" colors, plum "Farmer's Market", "Shine On" in sterling, and "Summerscape" in Graphite. I don't usually go for purple fabrics, but I LOVE these ones!

I'm in love with summerscape in graphite... so pretty. Ten yards would definitely kick start that bedroom makeover that I've been trying to start for ages.
They are all beautiful......I love the spring ivory colorway and the chartruese colorway....any of it would be a blessing to win......(if this doubles my comment I apologize. I wasn't sure if it went through the first time.)
Oh wow! I think my favorite is the Wheels in Motion in Sterling, but it is a hard decision!
I love the Farmer's Market Bluejay print. I'd love to use it in my guest bedroom makeover!
Beautiful fabric! I especially like the wrought iron motif in sunshine and plum. Thanks for running the giveaway!
I love them all and wouldn't be picky. I'd just be thankful to win.
They're such gorgeous prints - I am especially fond of the Spring Ivory and the Sterling Chartreuse collections. Beautiful!
I love the whole Sterling Chartreuse line. I can imagine my bedroom decorated with these lovely fabrics.
I love all of the Summerscape prints! I would love to redo my daughter's room; and about time too! She's 4 now and outgrowing her infant decorations. Thanks for the fab giveaway!!!
hstorm799{at}gmail{dot}com
I'm having such an awful time deciding between Loopy in Plum and Shine On in Sterling! Loving these fabrics! j-j-s AT juno DOT com
Tough to choose, BUT...I think Summerscape Spice might be my favorite. It's begging to be made into a pillow for my living room couch!
Mmmmm, I am loving the Sterling chartreuse collection, but the Wheels n' Motion in Spring would be perfect for a curtain to hide my hideous and giant water heater in my mudroom. Nice collections, Waverly!
I like the Wheels n motion print, esp in sterling! They're all great!
Wow, the Coral Citrus and the Spring Ivory are calling out my name! What a great collection!
They're all so pretty, but I'm crazy about the Wheels n' Motion in Spring! So happy and fun.
Spring ivory would do it for me! A new window seat cover would sure be lovely in this fabric
Network, I think...now to dream about using it up!
Fun giveaway, thanks Waverly!
I think the Sterling line would be perfect for my house of Sterlings. Beautiful material!
I can't wait to see the new bedding you create.
Wow! How to choose? They are all beautiful. I would choose the Mint Plum for myself. It would make a wonderful new color slate for the bedroom I've been wanting to redecorate. But the Coral Citrus would be fun for the grandgirls I've been sewing for lately.
I love the "A Little Loopy" print ... thanks for this giveaway, Anneliese & Waverly!! :)
mddoutel@yahoo.com
I like the little loopeys but also the navy americanas. All so pretty!!
Beautiful! I love the Coral Citrus personally!
So hard to choose but I'd have to go with the Navy Americana. Love the classic colors!
anything that's "a little loopy" would go with MY sewing style! Wow what fun fabrics!
I love these new designs. I want Shine-on Sterling for a pillow for my bed, Network Sunshine for my kitchen curtains and Wheels in Motion Americana for my boy's room.
The navy americana would look fantastic in the library/office/den at my new house!

I love the spring ivory
What an amazing first giveaway! The Wheels 'N Motion motif is my favorite, probably in Spring.
I love all the fabrics but my favorite is probably the "Shine On" print from the spring ivory collection. I love the vines and flowers!
I love the luminary indigo print! It would look great in my living room. They are really coming out with some beauties lately :)
I like Network and Farmer's Market in Plum and Glamour in Chocolate. These are so pretty. I love your site. You are so talented.
Love the Spring Ivory with all the colors!! would have to use the Americana in my bedroom though ;)
Oh my! I love the network in plum or the Shine On in sterling. So many good prints to choose!
I'm re-doing my bedroom right now and wheels in motion in sterling would be perfect! webduck27(at)gmail(dot)com
I love Farmers Market Blue Jay.
I love the summerscape- Graphite, we just moved into our new home and I have yet to decoate my little girls room this would be so amazing.
Thank you,
Sally
I'm totally loving the Americana! I just started my first quilt and these prints would make a lovely addition to my patchwork : )
Oh, I just love the mint plum and sterling chartreuse! Our master bedroom has grey walls and that's it... it definitely could use some color. Thanks for the giveaway!

How fun! I love the Tailspin Americana. Thanks so much,

What a gorgeous line of fabrics! The Shine On - Spring (blue paisley looking one) is a favorite. :) Love it!
Lindsey

Ahh! I can't choose! I'm loving the shades of solid colors like Berry. I'm also loving the button blooms & groovy grills too!
Shine on in Sterling Chartreuse....that's my favorite right now, for I am redecorating my bathroom and that could help me in that project!!! PICK ME!
LOVE a little loopy and Wheels in motion. NO problem finding something to sew with it!
Love the mint plums!
I love the summerscape graphite. What great patterns and color pallets!
Summerscape in spice is just lovely but I'd find it hard to pick just one - what a gorgeous collection
I really love the Plum Little Loopy fabric paired with the Chocolate! Thanks for sharing... :)
I love the shine on and summerscape.
I love the tailspin in sterling & chartreuse! They're all very cute, though!
I am ALL about "network" in sunshine and "shine on" in sterling! Beautiful!
Oh wow - what beautiful fabrics!! I love them all but the Shine On Spring is stunning!
The fabrics are beautiful! I love the Sterling Chartreuse collection - especially the Shine On - Sterling. Love!
I love them all and with a new baby girl would love a yard of each of the Farmer's Market, Shine on and Tail Spin, as well as a yard of the Tail Spin Sterling/Chartreuse.
I am hard pressed to pick just one print or colour way, for that matter - but if I have to, I'll say Wheels in Motion. They're all lovely!
The sterling chartreuse color line is my absolute fave!! That would look so pretty in a little girls room.
There are so many possibilities! My favorite of the colorways is mint plum followed by spring ivory, but my favorite print is summerscape in graphite! If I won it would be super difficult to figure out what prints to choose, but somehow I think I'd manage =^)
My wheels are spinning for "Wheels in Motion-Sterling" perhaps a dress for my daughter? She would also love some floor cushions in Glamour Pink and Sunshine! I can't forget my son's sitting window in Glamour Navy.
Then again, I could see myself carrying some reusable shopping bags in Shine On-Sterling or Summerscape Graphite. They're all fabulous!
Pam
Wow, what a great 1st giveaway!!!! I love the "Shine On" in Sterling. I like it in all 3 colors actually, hard to pick just one:) Thanks for the giveaway!
I love the shine on, wheels in motion, and summer scape! They are all beautiful prints
Oh, I just love the modern designs! I think my favorite is the Fun Floret and Grovy Grill!
i love the green and blue fabrics
I love a little loopy in citrus!
I love them all, but think Sterling Charteuse is just divine! Thank you for the giveaway opportunity!
I love this material! I think that my favorite is Farmer's Market: Citrus. I would love to have some to make little dresses for our little girls in our orphanage in Haiti.

lisadpope@yahoo.com
Thanks for the chance!!
Shine on - Spring! . . . although there are several "favorites" I can see! Thanks for the post!
Tough decision! I really like Tail Spin and Farmer's Market. Gotta make a run to Joann's!
The Shine On Americana is my favorite, but there are many more that would tie for second in my opinion. They all look beautiful! Thanks for hosting this give-away! ;-)
Wow! It's too hard to decide! I love to sew bags, so home dec fabric is perfect for that. I think I love the Summerscape for that. Spice is my favorite, but I love the other colors too. The Navy Americana would go so nicely in my living room, though. I see lots of pillows and curtains! Thanks for the giveaway.
I really like all of the chartreuse collection, so it's hard to pick a favorite. I think, though, that the Shine On- Sterling is my fav.
I love the Navy Americana SHINE ON!!!
I adore the navy americana!
I love them all. I would want some of each!
coral citrus collection!
I LOVE the Shine On- Sterling chartreuse! Gorgeous! I'll be shopping for these fabrics soon!
Nice! I like them all, but my favorite is Wheels 'n Motion in Spring.
I love the Blue Jay Sunshine colorway and designs!
Ooooh! I love it! Probably Blue Jay? Or Sterling? all are gorgeous!
I think the "shine on" Americana gets my vote although it is a very difficult decision!
I love the Shine On in Spring.
Wow! Love this fabric:) I love all of it, but partial to coral citrus:) And thank you for your blog!
The Shine On Sterling would make a lovely addition to my home!
I love the Spring Ivory collection! I would love to win!
The mint plum colourway is just gorgeous. I love these colours and I've also fallen in love with the summerscape print. Too pretty!
What an awesome giveaway - 10 yards of fabric! I love the sterling chartreuse colorway and the summerscape - spice print.
Ooooh! I love these! I'd love to do a quilt for my sister as a wedding gift with these. I think the Shine On- Spring is my favorite.
Wheels in motion is my fav.
I like the network!

I love the Navy Americana fabrics! I just redecorated my girls' room with this theme and would definitely make some extra throw pillows for their beds or maybe a bed skirt to cover storage. Hmm...
I love the coral citrus line and the navy americana. They're beautiful prints!
The Tailspin mini fabric is my first choice!
i think i like the tailspin best!
I love "Sweet Spot" in Avocado/Chocolate. I would love to win for my friend who is renovating an adorable little rv she just bought.
We are moving into our first home at the end of the year, so a stash of Waverly fabrics would be perfect! I have to agree, the Sterling Chartreuse is gorgeous!
I like the mint Summerscape, but I have no idea what I would do with it, lol.
The Spring Ivory color way is definitely my favorite! Love!
I love the Summerscape Graphite and the Farmer's Market in plum. Though all the patterns are so lovely! What a great giveaway.
I love the entire spring Ivory collection... many thanks for this give away!
Thank you for the wonderful giveaway! I hope to win!
I love the entire spring ivory collection!
oooohhhhh...this aussie girl is in love! we can't get this fabric here! I am stuck on the Shine on! goes with the warm weather approaching here!
Shine On - in all three colours; Love it!
oohh what a fab giveaway, I think shine on spring is lovely but they are all very nice indeed!
It's so hard to choose! I've really been wanting to incorporate more yellows into our home, so I think the Network print in sunshine would be fantastic! But really...I don't think I could choose just one print, it's too hard!
Wheels 'N motion in sterling. Oh so pretty!
I love them all, but if I have to pick it would be the mint plum! Thanks for the fun giveaway!
I love their gray fabric collection, it is amazing!

Just made a cosmetic bag out of the farmer's market citrus fabric and I loved working with it!
As an aside, I used your tutorial to make my own faux chenille blanket and I couldn't be more pleased with how it turned out!
I just love Waverly fabric. I remember going to the fabric store with my mother and loving all the bolts of fabric and chooses they had to pick from.
I am working on my little ones room and I love them all if I had to pick I would love to have blue jay sunshine... thanks for the chance to win
Summerscape spice is my favorite. My little girls would love some fabric for some new clothes. Thanks for the chance to win.
rrhooker88@yahoo.com
I love the spring ivory colorway. Especially the Shine On print. It would be soo cute in my girls' room.
I love the farmers market in Blue Jay. I love the whole collection
they are all great. but i think i like the mint and the sterling the best. thanks for the opportunity!
I love them all but, I think "tailspin" is my favorite. I just want to hang them somewhere ( if I were lucky enough to win) like the pictures. I am ready for a decor makeover maybe this would get me motivated
Thank you for offering such a generous give away...I was drawn to the Spring/Ivory. The ideas dancing in my head are amazing.
Have a blessed day :)
I like them all, but coral citrus stands out! I think I would mix it with some fabric from blue jay sunshine! Thanks for hosting a give away! :)
What a talent you are, what beautiful appearal you sew. I am the BlueJay Sunshine print girl!
Lovely, lovely fabrics! I could make use of any of them! Thanks for such a nice give-away!
I love them all, but the sterling chartreuse is definitely speaking to me! Thanks for the chance to win!
I heart Waverly! Always have :) I think the "Pom Pon Play/Spa" would be perfect for my bathroom redo!
I love every one of them. You choose. Fabric is an obsession for me. It is daily a "promise of happiness."
YUM! I love "Farmers MArket" and "Shine on" but they are all gorgeous! Heres to hoping for a win! :D
Ooh, I think that my husband may agree to decorating our room with the Bluejay Sunshine line. Since we move pretty often, our room has never been "done," so 10 yards!! would be a really nice starting point.
I have used Waverly prints for most of the curtains in my house, and the dinning room is the next one in need. I am loving the network prints or the summerscape graphite.
I love the farmers market and network ones! Lovely!
elliezaccone@yahoo.com
oh fabric lust... how you rear your ugly head when my pocketbook can least afford it :)
I love the sterling chartreuse. all are goregous.
I love the network sunshine! this is so close to the exact fabric I've been eyeing to make a beanbag cover. Gorgeous!
I love the sterling chartreuse-gorgeous!!!

I would have to say the print that caught my eye was the Mint Plum. The colors are stunning plus purple and green are my favorite colors!
