Grandma's Lawn Chair Pattern and Blog Hop

Hi Everyone and Welcome to my stop on the Grandma's Lawn Chair Pattern Blog Hop!

This pattern is from the lovely and talented Diane Bohn who blogs over at fromblankpages    This is her first quilt pattern and I was lucky enough to be able to test the pattern for her - and Wow! I am so excited to share my results with you! And offer you a great giveaway!

 

Welcome to September with a New Pattern and Blog Hop!

Welcome to September! Wow the summer sure seemed to fly by! I hope it was a good one for you and your family - it was here in Indiana!

September is National Sewing Month and what better way to celebrate than with a new pattern?

Diane Bohn who blogs over at from blank pages has written and published her first quilt pattern titled Grandma's Lawn Chair. I was lucky enough to be one of her pattern testers! And so glad that I was- this is a great pattern! It is easy, fun and fast! I am so happy with the results - although I must say - I don't think my Grandma ever had a lawn chair like this! Just sayin'......

To celebrate and introduce her new pattern, she is having a blog hop! There are some amazing people on this blog hop and I'm so excited to be included and see all the wonderful quilts made from this great pattern! It begins on Monday September 9th.

Here's the line up:

So make plans to stop back on my day - Wednesday, September 11th for a chance to win and be sure and visit each blog and take a look at the gorgeous quilts and enter for additional chances to win the pattern!

Today is Labor Day in the US - so if you are home for the holiday, enjoy a few hours of stitching, or an old movie, or a great book, or laughs and giggles with the family - you've earned it!

Happy Stitching!

U R Priceless Blog Hop!

Hello everyone! How's your Friday? Or Saturday morning for our international friends  :)

Mine--so very glad the weekend is here! Rain is rolling in and it is chilly, fall is definitely in the air. But you know tonight I don't care, it has been a busy week and all I want to do is curl up at home and work on my projects! It has been sew long!

Have you stopped by Sew WE Quilt? It is a blog all about blog hops! All kinds of quilting styles participate.  

I stopped by to check out all the blog hops and fell in love! I just had to join in on this one! I have been wanting to make one of these little coin purses so bad and what great Christmas/Birthday/Just Because Gift :)

I have already ordered and received my fabric and frame! Really..bet you could figure that one out already :)
I am thinking that my stash probably has some fabric just waiting to be made into one of these cute little purses too!  I hear there are a few more spots open on the hop if you would like to get in on the action!

Stop over and see Katherine at Sew Me Something Good, here. She will be the cheerleader for this blog hop, or stop by and see Madame Samm of SewWEQuilt here.

Can't wait! Jingle, jingle, I can hear them quarters and dimes, nickles and pennies now ;)

See you soon!
Ginny
