Twirl Giveaway

361 Comments / By / January 23, 2012

Did you like to Twirl when you were younger? Spin in a circle until you couldn’t spin anymore and you just crashed to the ground in a heap. Or maybe…just maybe you were a chair twirler, and you spun in an office chair until you just slumped out of it. Anne is a little of both! She loves to spin in circles and even cries “Wee” or “Spin Circles” when she does it! I love watching her!

I think Barb and Mary from Me & My Sister Designs must have been twirler’s too! After all they designed the most gorgeous line – Twirl! I fell in love with this design the second I saw it and I immediately asked if I could host a giveaway for my wonderful readers on my blog. Barb and Mary oh so graciously sent two, count em TWO, layer cakes over. One for me and one for YOU!

Oh wait, that’s not all…they decided to sweeten the deal by hosting a giveaway this week on their blog in conjunction with my giveaway! Two chances to win a wonderful prize from two amazing designers.

    I love the Spring Fling. I follow you on facebook. (also on google too, but facebook is how I saw the Twirl giveaway) I couldn’t find the giveaway on their blog either…but I totally love Twirl! I have a jelly roll of it being delivered tomorrow. I want as much of it as I can get! I was on a waiting list for when it was available since December. lol Thanks for letting me know Me & My Sister had a blog…I didn’t know….I had to subscribe to it 😉

    Thanks for the awesome giveaway!

  12. Becky Greene

    I, too, LOVE the Sweet Treats bag!! It is going on my shortlist of projects to make. Thanks for the introduction – love a bunch of their patterns!

  18. Rosanne Derrett

    My favourite pattern on there is the Triangle Challenge
    I follow on Twitter, RSS and Facebook so I think I count as a stalker 😉

  19. Karen Turner

    I am new to quilting and very excited. I love the Table Runner. I can’t wait to get started.

  23. robin

    I follow with GFC. May I ask why you won’t be using GFC any more? I also now follow on FB, but GFC is so much handier for keeping track of my favorite blogs.

    My favorite pattern is Forever Clementine. Thanks for an awesome giveaway! 🙂

  33. Lisa L.

    I LOVE “Spring Fling” and “Warm and Happy” and “Butterfly Fling!” But I would love to make all of those patterns!Thanks for the great giveaway! 🙂

  46. Jennifer Dancy

    I love “Frog Patch”! Such a darling froggy! I’ve lost count of how many I’ve made!

  49. debm

    I like spring fling, and although it uses a panel, simple hand drawn flower appliques would work well too. Thanks for the chance to own that layer cake. My great niece twirls like a tornado…not physically but mentally. She is always thinking and asking questions. I Love It!!! She would love a quilt using this fabric!

  51. Joan Moore

    I am a new follower. My favourite pattern is the cute, little frog. Thank you for the opportunity.

  52. Nicole B.

    Me & My Sister Designs are my favorite! They have a super cute pillowcase design that I want to try!

  54. Nicole B.

    I entered Me & My Sister’s giveaway! Thanks for the opportunity to win such an awesome layer cake! 😀

  59. Vicki

    Cute, cute, cute patterns! It’s almost imossible to pick a favorite! I really like their new Tipsy Quilt pattern. Nice giveaway! 🙂

  64. Dolores

    I follow Me and My Sister and that’s how I got here. Thanks for the link. I went to take a look at all the downloads and since I just found out that my little grandson is going to be a big brother, I plan on making the Butterfly Fling Throw. It is so bright and cheery and this way big brother doesn’t have to share his quilt.

  67. Polly B

    I love them all but downloaded the Forever Clementine. It is so sweet. Just love it.
    Thanks for the giveaway!

  69. Marguerite Guinn

    I like the Butterfly Barcode pattern from Me & My Sister! It looks simple and fast – always good things in my busy schedule! I also love their twirl fabric – just looks like fun! I enetered at their blog, too.

  70. Polly B

  141. Heather

    I entered at Me & My Sister Designs. Who doesn’t like to twirl?! I remember winding up the swing as far as I could and then letting go … twirling away as the swing unwound. I also had to twirl for my Dad in every new dress my Mom made me.

  143. Jodi G.

    I went and looked at all the great free patterns at Me & My Sister Designs. Two of my favorites are Twitter and the Sweet Treats Bag.

    Thank you and Me & My Sisters Design for a super giveaway. Loving the colors, like a fresh breath of spring. Also just a fyi, I switched over to BlogLovin’ (so I wouldn’t lose you) and I really like it. They have an app for the iPhone and it is so easy.

    Hey there from a fan (follower) of yours! Just visited Me and My Sister and absolutely fell in love with the frog! Thanks for the chance to win!

  231. lisa conant

    I went over there, and told them this:

    I like to twirl in a clockwise motion, very quickly, with my hands out to the sides so all the blood runs into them and they feel numb and floaty

  239. Rhonda aka Quilter in The Gap

    I like the triangle challenge quilt the best………..tho that frog splash mat is adorable too (it was a close second)

  253. Kate

    I like Forever Clementine 🙂 Oh, and Butterfly Barcode – I think that’s a great way to show off prints that you like 🙂

  263. Staci

    Never realized there was free patterns on their blog! Love Spring Daisy and Forever Clementine. Thank you all!

  267. Jan Richards

    I entered the contest at the sisters blog. My favorite free pattern is the sweet treat
    bag on their blog. I too love the Twirl collection and would love to win a layer cake
    of it. Thanks for a chance to win some.

  268. Michele

    Of course I love Twirl! I was a baton twirler from young girlhood all the way through college. It is really tough to choose just one favorite from their patterns but I if I had to pick just one, it would be Happy Dance.

  275. Linda F

    I love so many of the patterns, but if I had to make a choice, I guess I would say jelly sandwich!

  278. Judith

    I did go to their blog to enter…I love their fabric designs. I might make the Strawberry Lemonade Pincushion. I actually have some of their strawberry fabric stored away. I am a “strawberry” lover! Your layer cake quilt is great! Love layer cakes too because they can also become charm squares! Thanks for the chance to win.

  281. Sheila M/FL

    I’m very happy that I found you from Me and My Sister Designs. I love all their items but I think that the thing that I have used and made the most from their sight it the pillow case. I volunteer at our local Ronald McDonald House and I love to help make the kids feel more at home and then get to take a little bit of sunshine with them. Twirl is going to be a great addition to my stash. Love their bright and fun fabrics.

  294. Annmarie

    I am a follower of your blog and my fav orite pattern over at Me & My Sister is the Butterfly Fling. Ihave had my eye on Twirl for a long time & would love a layer cake. Thanks for the chance.

  298. Annmarie

  331. Shelley C

    I liked the Sweet Treat Bag…that is my new interest lately..purses and totes. I need t get one made for a birthday in March. I follow via pinterest as Mickey. What is up with the losing google followers…I’ll have to see if I can find what that is all about…am I going to lose all the blogs I follow? What ever am I going to read every day!?

  348. Kira

    I like forever clementine in the free patterns. In the not so free patterns I like Orange Slices and Flipping Out.

  349. Binks

    I think the Forever Clementine quilt patterns is so cute. And the color on that thing is amazing! LOVE.

  351. Mhairi

    I love Butterfly Barcode and Warm and Happy.
    I missed out on the other giveaway 🙁 but I thought I would tell you about my twirling.
    I used to hold a broom and spin around while looking at the top, then you put it on the ground and try to jump over it. Lots of fun for older kids.

  352. Sandyb

    I went over to Me and My Sister and yes they have wonderful patterns and the Spring Fling is my favorite but it was very hard to choose. Thank you!

  357. Shirley in Canada
