I began surfing, and leaving comments, and my excitement grew at the opportunity to WIN! Then I remembered the joy of GIVING & I decided I must head on over to Sew Mama Sew and CRASH THIS PARTY!
If you are new to my blog, welcome and thank you for the visit! I use this space to post about progress on projects once or twice a week. I blog to share with family and friends, and because I love meeting other quilter's online, especially funny quilter's (funny funny I mean, although funny odd is OK too). I enjoy being a part of the online community of quilting that has allowed quilter's to collaborate internationally. My part may be small, but I somehow feel we are contributing to history, a sort of New Age of quilting. I also find blogging helps me to accomplish more quilting!
My giveaway today is a kit I put together made of fabrics from my stash. I made these kits for my new Etsy Fabric Shop. I haven't finished quilting mine to show you, but here is a pieced square with the exact fabrics included...
The kit includes pre-cut fabric and a pattern to complete two Carpenter's Wheel blocks. I also did a tutorial for this block here.
Here is a photo of the first pillow kits I made, these with all vintage fabrics and finished quilting.
Anyone (with contact info) is eligible to win by commenting on this post prior to 5PM PST Friday, December 13th!
THANK YOU & GOOD LUCK!

ReplyDeleteWow, Heidi - this is fun! Totally with you about your feeling of Blog Land bringing on a sort of New Age for quilting. I really wanted to do my thesis on recent quilting history in this connection, but my advisors shot it down - said it was too young, still, and would make a great sociology or anthropology thesis, but not yet for history. ::sigh:: ;D
ReplyDeletevery pretty, thank you for the chance to win. happy sewing to all
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! I haven't done much quilting, but this kit would help me tremendously!
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of kits, don't have to cut all those pieces. They would make beautiful pillows.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful, I would so love to make this. Merry Christmas. crystalbluern at onlineok dot com
ReplyDeleteI LOVE LOVE LOVE the colors you picked! That's the hardest part of quilting, coordinating/matching. Purple, teal, pink and lime, when I put them together it never looks nice. I even took a color class to make a quilt, just looking at it makes me nauseous. Great idea! Thanks for the generous giveaway! ;-> Toni Anne
