I’m soaking up the sun in Mexico….with four layers of sunscreen on mind you. If the sun touches my bare skin I turn into a giant walking freckle within 2 seconds flat…no exaggeration.
We are being super duper lazy…. I’m a master at being super duper lazy. My poor husband has been in the churro truck line pretty much the whole time we’ve been here fetching chocolate filled churros for his lazy wife and his kids sleeping on the beach. He loves us.
Before we left I got these fun charm packs….this fabric line is so bright and summery…it reminds me of Mexico. The fabric is Treasures and Tidbits by Piece O’ Cake Designs for Robert Kaufman.
And since I’m pretty sure I’m going to be stuck on the beach in a churro induced coma for the next week…I’m going to give them away. Leave a comment on this post to enter….I’ll choose a random winner sometime in a few days.
P.S. If you never hear from me again…its because I’m the proud new owner of a churro truck and I’m staying here forever.

Sounds like you are having a great time! If you invest in the Churro truck and live there forever, let me know...I've never had a chocolate filled churro so I would definitely have to swing by for a visit:o)
I love your idea of a vacation! Please, please eat an extra chocolate-filled churro for me :-)
Thanks for the fun giveaway!
How fun!!! Hope you have a great time. Thanks for the giveaway.
What a great vacation! Hope you come back some day with some churro induced creative inspirations!
Mexico sounds heavenly - enjoy! And those fabrics are fabulous, thanks so much!!
Have fun and cute charm packs or what???
Yay! How fun! I think I would be ordering the platanos fritos...I had those in the Dominican Republic...so good!! But churros are delicious too :)
Sounds like a lot of fun! I know I would love to be soaking up the sun on a beach too. Hope your family has a great time!!
SO jealous!!!! That picture of the baby just makes me smile. So do all those fabrics! :0
Have a great time!
Lucky you. I love Mexico too. I have to wait until Sept for my trip there. Would love to win a charm pack. The colors are great! Enjoy your family time.
So jealous!!! Sitting up here in Alaska wishing I could jump into your pics.
Have a fabulous time! Eat hardy! ;)
So jealous of the Mexico trip. Have fun!
Oh oh I tasted one of those late last year north of Australia... yummo - even asked hubby if we could sell them in Tasmania. We looked into it!! I wish I was on that beach. WOuld be oh so nice.
Thank you for the give away. My son still loves your raw edge circle quilt. He and I 'share' it most evenings : o )
I'm so jealous!! Your baby looks so comfy... I wish I could be taking a nap on the beach right now!! :)
Jealous! Especially of the chocolate churros.
I love Mexico!!!...have a nice week!!
Lovely - i can't decide what to do for our Spring break - so many projects I can't relax...Enjoy Mexico!
I'm not much of a beach girl myself...but that babe has the right idea. And I wouldn't say no to a chocolate-filled churro!
Lucky you1 I hope you are snoozing some right along with your little one! Enjoy the churros and the sun! I agree the fabrics put me into a summertime frame of mind...
I love the color way of that collection. And if I can't have sun here in crappy weather central (Utah), I will take some consolation in bright colors!
P.S. Best wishes with your new churro biz. :)
Mmmmm... chocolate curros...
Mmmm... cute charm packs...
Sun? I think I've seen that sometime in my lifetime. I am ready for some brightness!
Hope you are having a lovely vacation -- churros are delish aren't they? What a fun post this was! Love that fabric -- thanks for picking one of us lucky ones. Be safe!
Sunscreen and churros :) ENJOY!
Mmmm churros sound nice (and fattening!!). What a lovely photo of your baby sleeping. Thanks for the great giveaway.
Lucky you! Enjoy the churros! They taste so much better when someone else is making (and even fetching) them! That fabric is fabulous :)
Ah... napping on the beach- a slice of heaven! Enjoy
Sounds like a wonderful heavenly vacation. I could sure use some sun...right now it is snowing. And here I thought it was supposed to be Spring!
Mexico sounds great! I can't wait to be at the beach this weekend!
I've never had a filled churro but it sounds delightful. And since it again is snowing here, please send some warmth north. Thank you for the fun sprocket pillow tutorial. Not quite finished with them but it sure has been fun selecting fabrics to bring some spring to my brown family room.
mmmm churros... I am pretty jealous. But I would probably feel better if I won. :)
Have a great restful vacay! Enter
Me please.
Looks like fun! I haven't been to Mexico since I was a kid. Chocolate filled churros sound delish!
Cute fabric! It does look rather beachy.
I could go for a chocolate filled churro... sign me up for the goodness. Oh wait you're giving away fabric... I could go for that too. Thanks for sharing and have fun.
FUN!! I wish I were there with you!! :)
I wouldn't mind a beach to sit on. Have fun!
Also, see if you can get a recipe and blog it!
Have a great time! I would love to join you in sleeping on the beach :)
Lovely fabrics, thanks for the giveaway.
Churros filled with chocolate? Ummm, yes please!
Oh, and the fabric is yummy too!
Looks like you're having a wonderful vacation! Enjoy yourself! Thanks for the giveaway, those fabrics are simply darling!
Jealous of your vacation time - enjoy the rest of it. Thanks for the chance to win some sunny fabrics!
What a fun vacation for your family. I think the picture of your little guy sleeping should be on your Christmas card next year....it's adorable.

Churros are so YUMMY! Thanks for the opportunity to win some fabric!
Lovely give-away! Enjoy the beach. I've never been to Mexico, but churros, I know. Yum!
Hmmm, a churros van - sounds like a plan! Your kids look pretty happy on the beach and I'm with you about turning into one huge freckle if I get too much sun.
And that fabric is gorgeous - would love to win (if the random generator is on my side)!
Have fun! Your little guy is adorable.

That looks amazing! I have never heard of a chocolate filled churro, that is worth the trip right there! Thanks for sharing your vacation with us.
So fun! The trip and the charm pack. I'd like one of each!
Hee hee... looks like fun! And, I'd probably buy a truck too!!
Choccie filled churro yummo! You lucky thing. How precious does your sleepy baby look... I will get to Mexico one day (first pay off the new Bernina). Love these fabrics, I'm crossing my fingers and toes. :)
Love the fabrics, and jealous of your relaxing in the sunshine! Enjoy!
I have always been to nervous to enter, but Friday the 15th is my birthday, if that gets me anywhere. I enjoy your blog, have a great vacation.
I've never had a chocolate filled churro, they sound delicious. The fabrics look delicious too!
Didnt know you could fill a churro with chocolate. Costco needs to get on that! Love the fabric

Ha! I can totally understand your churro addiction! And what a lovely husband you have. I have one of these fabulous versions of men at home and can´t appreciate him enough. :)
Have you tried the leche filled churro...yum yum! Enjoy the sun and warmth.
The charm pack reminds me of happy sunny days! Thanks for brightening our days, since it's raining here in Seattle.

If you cant be bothered sending those fabrics all the way here I would LOVE to have them! :-) Have a fantastico holiday!! :-)
YAY for relaxing, Mexico, and churros!
What I wouldn't do to be napping on a beach right now!!
Just a teensy bit jealous here, but not sure if it's for the churros or the beach. Congratulations on getting some lovely family time in a tropical locale!
I love your website and love your work! Love this fabric as well!
I so want to be where you are! It is still so cold here!!! I'd love to win those fabrics. They are definitely me! Thanks for being so generous!
Hooray for the giveaway! And for churros, and beaches, and vacation time, and freckles (yes, I also turn into a giant walking freckle jst the way you do).
What a great post :) It's good to see that you and the family can relax, you always seem so busy! Love the baby picture! Enjoy!
What bright happy fabrics! Enjoy the sun in Mexico. Not too many things better than beautiful fabric, but Mexico is one!
I'd love to get either the charm pack or a churro. Gracias!
mmm churros and platanos fritos... i'd weigh so much when I got back!
Thanks for the giveaway! have a great vacation!
Hooray for the churro truck (and the hubby that fetches!) and thanks for the giveaway opportunity!
They look gorgeous! Would love to use them in my sewing!
I am ever so jealous of your location. I hope you are all having a great time.
What a great hubby you have! Looks like you are having a fun and relaxing time away! Enjoy!
I would love a holiday in Mexico! Oh well, I will suffice to hitting the beach an hour and a half away - we apparently have some of the nicest in Australia so i will have to believe it. But no Churio truck!! Such gorgeous fabrics - giving away?? Too much sun! Would love to help you out with them?
Big simple flowery patterns are always my favorite! Have a wonderful time in Mexico!
Warmth? Whats that? Here in NY Spring isn't here yet.:( I'm green with envy, have a great time it looks wonderful. Chocolate churros who new? Sounds tasty, enjoy. Thanks for thinking of the not as fortunate, who are still wearing flannel pj's. Have a great time! ;>
Those are beautiful and I can totally see how those bright golds and reds remind you of Mexico. I'd love to turn them into a quilt.
Lucky you! It was 77 here yesterday until a cold front moved through, now it's supposed to be 47 today. Where is spring? Thanks
You are so sweet. I have a ton of projects just for charm packs. Pick me :)
So fun! I'm trying to talk the hubby into a beach vacation after summer's over! I can see some HST out of those beauties!
Enjoy the beach for all of us...LOL! If you are able to see some of the preparations for the easter celebrations, your kids will love it! I used to live an hour from the border and I do miss it some days! Thank you for a beautiful giveaway!
Sounds (and looks!) like you're having a blast! That's great! Thanks for the chance to win!
Too FUN! Would love to be a beach bum, right about now! Enjoy!!!

I love this fabric line! I have always loved Piece O' Cake, they have the best patterns/books.
I lived in Mexico for two years and had a few too many churros :) the best was the birthday parties that we went to that had the churro maker there--and you could have as many as you wanted--bad! Enjoy yourself! Thanks for the giveaway!

OMG What a great post! I love Churro's Never had one filled with Chocolate. How nice it is to have a vacation and some time as a family.. Enjoy! PS Love the fabric!
Enjoy your vacation and don't turn into a giant freckle!
I would love a vaca like that! My trips are usually traveling with my son to visit my family while my husband stays home and works. Not complaining, just saying a little bit of what you are experiencing would be a nice change. Have fun and thanks for the giveaway!
Wow. I love the colors of the fabric. And I LOVE churros!
Enjoy the time in the sun & the sand in your toes...heaven! And, those fabrics are beautiful :)
Thanks for sharing -- I feel calm just looking at the pics :-) Until the charms popped up, love those! Salsa time!
Churros Yum! Love the fabric too. :)
I have reached the time in my life that I get to travel and a churro sounds good. I am a little chicken about traveling to Mexico though. The charm packs are fantastic.
If I win, I'll name the quilt I make Churro in your honor. ;0)
thanks for a chance! i really need to gift this charm pack to a friend, so would be great to win!
Those colors are amazing! And I'm so jealous of your trip to Mexico. I could go for some sun right now...
That sounds delightful! Those charm packs are beautiful, too!
Wow, Mexico! Maybe this could be my first quilting project :) Love the colors!
Enjoy your vacation.... and please post a picture of the churros.... :)
Thanks for thinking of us while you are relaxing in Mexico. Have a fabulous vacation. Gorgeous fabrics.
Precious baby pic. Thanks for the generous giveaway! Eve
Enjoy Mexico ! I've never worked with a charm pack before but I'm sure I would figure something out if I won it.
sounds like a nice relaxing vacation...I can't remember what it's like to see babies sleeping, since mine don't. LOVE LOVE LOVE the charm packs.
Kristen
Love the babe picture! If only we could all just fall asleep wherever we wanted. And hurray for the chuurio, can you mail be back a few?
I have always thought that a lazy vacation is the best kind of vacation! Enjoy the rest of your time in Mexico, and good job using that sunscreen!
My husband would stand in that line for me, too! Gotta love men like that!
Looks like you are having an awesome get-away, so lather on the lotion and eat those chuurios while you can:)
Now that's my kind of vacation. I'll have to google churro but if it has chocolate how can it be anything but yummy. Have fun.
uschbear at gmail dot com
Man, I could do with a chocolate covered churro right now, not to mention some sunshine! I hope you're having a fantastic vacation!
ooh fun, thanks for sharing your vacation (and vacation fabric) with us!!
I love your post, I am the same way with the sunscreen and being a freckle:) I hope you have a super vacation!
mmm churros sound so good. I love piece o 'cake! please enter me in the giveaway! enjoy the rest of your vacation!
Very cute fabrics. Thanks for a chance to win. Enjoy your vacation.
Came in from My Sewing Circle - led by Disappearing Nine Patch. I'm a new quilter so thanks for sharing the pattern - it looks easy and fun (especially with a charm pack).
Enjoy your holiday in Mexico.
I hope you're getting the churros that are filled with evaporated milk and not just poured over it. Cause really, you haven't had a proper sugar coma 'til you've had a few of those.
Hasta Luego mi amiga!!
Churros are so yummy! Enjoy your vacation!
Oh, the fabric looks just as delicious as the churros sound. Yum on both accounts. Thanks for the giveaway!!
We used to have a Mexican restaurant in town that made the best churros! I always say I'm going to make them at home, but I don't...
Ps. The fabrics are gorgeous! So sunny! Perfect for my sunny Florida sewing room, don't you think?! ;)
The fabric is wonderful! I am wishing I was on a beach in Mexico right now. Snow last night where we are!!
Enjoy your vaction and lazy time!
That sounds yummy!! Nothing like sugar sweetness. Cute fabrics!! They do shout mexican vacation.
Oh, napping on the beach sounds so good right about now!
ooohhh, churros, yum! The fabric is beautiful, thanks for the giveaway! Have a fun and safe trip!
Love the bright fabrics, jealous of your beach time!
So glad you are getting a vacation after all the work you did on the Japan disaster quilt. Enjoy your trip and relax. Thanks for a chance to win those charm packs.
the fabric is amazing and you left that fabric to go get freckled!?!?
My husband and I are going to Mexico in a few short weeks (first vacation in seven years!) and your post made me even more excited about our trip! I can't wait to be super lazy and stuff myself with churros, too!!
Have a fun trip and please do come back...and do post lovely tutorials....like the sprocket Pillows..We love ur blog :)
what a sweet hubby! Sounds like a great trip.
Enjoy your vacation--everyone needs to be lazy sometimes--it recharges our batteries!
Sounds like a good vacation!

What lovely fabric. fmoore11589@comcast.net
Churro heaven, have a lovely time being lazy!
thanks for the chance to win some really lovely fabric too!
Chocolate, the beach, and a man to wait on you. What could be better? I would never go home.
Love those bright colors, my mind is full of so many possibilities! (jealous of the beach, we got more snow today in Utah!)
soak up that sunshine! hope i win :) thanks for the chance
What an awesome vacation! Eat a churro for me!
A vacation - I'm not sure I know what that is. Have Fun! wkpanter at yahoo dot com
so much fun!
That sounds wonderful...I could use a warm beach now as opposed to wet and snow Utah. Could use those cute fabrics too!! Pick Me!!!
Have a great time in Mexico!
Never had a churro but they must be good from all the comments. But I would be leary about going anywhere in Mexico. Fabrics are great. I love anything from those POC gals!
What a wonderful vacation! I wish I was on a beach, soaking up the sun. Thanks for the chance to win!
My first brand new sewing machine and I would love you forever if you sent us those lovely fabrics!
