Giveaway

Let’s Celebrate

So I hit a milestone this week on Twitter, I now have over 500 followers! WOW! I can’t believe that even 5 people care what I have to say, let alone 500. I am also 4 fans away from 800 on my Facebook Page!  Holy Buckets Batman!  So I thought I would have a fun and random giveaway.

This is a nice sized pile of selvages. I started collecting them last year when I was seeing all kinds of awesome projects on pinterest made with selvages. Well since I am trying to finish projects instead of start new ones, I thought I would give these to someone who would use them and enjoy them! What do you think?

Entry will be super simple! Tell me what your favorite dish is at Thanksgiving (mine is homemade creamed corn)!

Happy Friday! This giveaway will be open until 9 pm on Thursday, November 15, I will announce the winner on Friday!

Sponsor Highlight & Giveaway – Fat Quarter Shop

Happy Friday Everyone! Today I have Fat Quarter Shop here and I’m going to talk about “the most beautiful time of the year”.  I love Christmas, not because of presents and toys but because it is when I get to see my family.  Fat Quarter Shop has one of the largest collections of holiday fabrics that you will find anywhere.  In fact they have a separate site for it all, The Christmas Cloth Store.  I have spent the last 2 years working with fabrics in my stash to make my Vintage Christmas Sampler quilt, now that I have finished the top, I can now start fantasizing about some new lines because I have used what I had on hand! Woohoo!

Here are a few of the Christmas lines that are on my list for Santa:

Holiday by Michael Miller

Joy by Kate Spain

Freshly Winterkist by Monica Solorio-Snow

These lines couldn’t be more different than the vintage fabrics I’ve been working with and I just LOVE them. What I love most about Fat Quarter Shop’s Christmas Cloth Store is that you can find ALL types of lines there. Vintage inspired, traditional and modern. There is something to be said for a one-stop shopping experience!

One of my favorite lines right now is Cherry Christmas by Aneela Hoey.  It is fun and modern. Fat Quarter Shop recently sent me a layer cake and I’ve been tossing around the idea of making Anne an Advent Calendar…hopefully that will happen before December 1st rolls around!  They also have a layer cake for you too!!!

Follow the instructions on the Rafflectopter below to enter. You will have until 9 pm PST on Thursday, October 25, 2012 to enter. Good luck!!!

4th of July Giveaway from Contemporary Cloth

Happy 4th of July! This day is of special significance to my family. My husband is currently serving overseas to protect our freedoms and our independence, which is exactly what this day is about, celebrating those freedoms.  In honor of my husband and with the help of Sondra from Contemporary Cloth, I have put together my first ever fat quarter bundle. It is called BitterSweet Bundle #1 – it is a combination of Kaufman Fly Away and Kona Solids.  It is currently available for purchase AND 2 lucky winners will each receive their own bundle!

I know what you are thinking…this is the most unpatriotic bundle you’ve ever seen. Let me explain.  When I think of freedom, I think of birds, flying high in the sky without a care in the world. They have absolute freedom. The kind of freedom I hope my husband and his fellow soldiers are fighting for.  It represents the kind of freedom I see in my daughter when she is dancing in her playroom with her arms thrown up and her eyes closed tight.  This is what I will be celebrating today, that type of freedom and the strength it took 200+ years ago to fight for it.

This bundle is the first of many that Contemporary Cloth and I will be putting together for you.  Sondra carries prints and fabrics that I haven’t seen anywhere else and I am going to try and put together a bundle a week – time permitting. Each of these bundles will be unique to Contemporary Cloth and will be a mix of solids and prints.  I am really excited about this new adventure with Sondra and I hope you all will be excited to see what we come up with.

Please use the Rafflecopter below to enter the giveaway and I hope you all have a happy and safe Fourth of July.
