Quilter's Blog Hop Party With Giveaways!


I haven't hosted many giveaways on my blog but after blogging now for more than six years, I thought I would join in the fun and participate in the Quilter's Blog Hop Party!  There are many bloggers participating that are offering lovely goodies to win.  It's a chance to hop through and find some new blogs as well.

So, what do I have on offer?  I decided I would part with a small portion (fat quarters) of the new lovely Heather Ross fabrics I recently ordered from Spoonflower using her new book.  I would love to share with one of my readers (new or long time) my recent acquisition.  These are fabrics you will not find anywhere else as they have been personally colored by me.  They are printed on 100% cotton poplin and I have tested them in the wash and they are wash sturdy!

What do you need to do to enter?  Simple.  Just leave me a comment.  I would love to hear from you, tell me anything.  I love to check out who is reading me and I will likely click your profile, find you and follow you on your blog!  I will ship internationally so all are welcome.

If you would like a second chance to win, like my Facebook page or follow my blog and leave a comment that you have done so.  If you already follow my Facebook page or blog then leave me a comment that you do. 

I will announce the winner March 15th.  Good luck!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Cute! I bought Heather's book too but haven't played with the design cd yet. Seeing what you were able to make has inspired me to dig my book out. Because really...at this point printing Heather's prints via Spoonflower will probably be the only way I'll ever get my hands on her work.

    ReplyDelete

  46. What I'd love to hear is how you are able to quilt so much with little boys. I have two boys, 2.5 years old and almost 1 years old. Oh, and I'm 2 months pregnant too. Right now... I'm only able to do 1 quilt a year!! So what am I doing wrong? Where do you find the time to quilt? How do you do it with little hands around you?

    ReplyDelete
  47. I follow you on Facebook. And no, I don't waste a lot of time there... so I don't think it's stealing from my quilting time? :)
