200th Post

Since this is my 200th post, I thought a give away would be in order. While I have been cleaning and reorganizing my sewing space, I have discovered kits, projects, and LOTS of scraps. I have included in this give away one (or two) boxes of scraps, one BOM kit, and one quilt kit that is fabric and pattern (nothing sewn yet). If you are interested in any of these items, please leave a comment, or email me. If you leave me an email, please make sure to leave your name. Also, please do not advertise this give away in any other blogs. This give away is for my loyal readers (all 10 of you!), those who have stuck with me through thick and thin (posts, that is).
This is a BOM that I have not finished. I have some of the blocks sewn. The picture above is the finishing kit with a picture of the finished quilt. The fabrics are from Fig Tree Designs. The colors are beautiful, but not my color palette. I ordered this BOM after I saw a black and white picture of the quilt. I did not know the color palette, but I really liked the quilt design.
In this box/s of scraps there will be strips, strings and some chunks and hunks. Pictured above is just a FEW of the scraps that will be sent out. If you are a scrappy quilter, this is the box for YOU.
Americana Rose is from Shabby Fabrics. I purchased it a couple of years ago. I saw it advertised in a quilt magazine and I thought it was so cheerful and pretty. The fabric and pattern for this quilt is included. It is pictured as a table cover, but I think it would look just as pretty as a wall hanging.
I realize many folks may be on vacation at this time of the year so I will keep this give away open until the end of the month, August 31. Be sure to indicate in your comment or email which item/s you want. Names will be drawn on September 1, 2011, and the winners' names will be posted on that date. Until then.....
Happy Quilting

You do have more than ten followers, some of us are just quiet. (and have to say, no one would call me quiet, ever). Love seeing your quilts, that grandbaby and keeping up with what you are up too. (you need to do the FB thing).

Pam I have to say I love both the quilts, especially the last one, but I don't need more scraps. :) I'm about ready to start looking at our applique pattern (My Whimsical Quilt Garden)and hopefully will have the first block prepared to stitch on the 1st. That's my goal - want to join me? We'll plan to have one prepared to stitch on the 1st of each month until we finish. blessings, marlene

Congrats on your 200! I would consider any of your prizes, even the scraps! I enjoy keeping up with your "doings."

Pokey said...

You do have people who check in! I enjoy your 101 ways with purple (and other colors, too). Congrats on 200 posts. I really like the Americana Rose, but scraps from other peopls's collections always seem better than you own somehow. Thank you for sharing!

Congratulations on 200 posts. You give away is very generous and I would love to win either the BOM or the Americana Rose.

So how is the reorganization coming? It must be making you feel great to be moving right along.

Hi! I just discovered your blog today from A Passion for Applique. Every couple of weeks, I go through the blogs of a blog I follow, and click on their links. If I find one I like it goes in my favorites. You made my favorites. I love your houses quilt and snowbound. I wish I could already quilt like that, but I'm a beginner yet and haven't made it that far. I'll get there! If you want to consider me for your giveaway, I would like just about all of them, so you choose something good for a beginner. I love applique too, but I only do the fusable way as of now. I don't have much time. Do you know where you got your snowbound and houses patterns so I could maybe do them? Thanks for your time reading this long comment, you just fill me with enthusiasm! Thanks again!

Hi Pam,
Wow, you have reached 200 posts- what nice prizes you are giving away- it is so hard to choose- I like them all- the last kit is particularly pretty but I would be thrilled to receive any one of your gifts.
Blogging is lots of fun isn't it- Even when I am not posting as regular as I should it is always nice to read other posts. I hope to get a new post up this evening before I head to bed.
Thanks for the chance to win a nice prize but more importantly, thanks for sharing your life and your friendship. It is valued and appreciated.
Warmest regards,
Anna

I too love purple. I do follow you just am one of the quiet ones like Norma said.
I love scraps and would love to win. My friends laugh at me at our quilt group because I save the smallest scraps. I'm having a give-a-way also. Check it out.

Happy 200th post. I need to see how many I have. Congrats.
Great giveaway. If I was to win one, I would like the first or the last.
Thanks for a chance.

Congratulations on 200 posts!! Who would've thought that we'd make it that far when we started? (I'm almost to 200 too) Good for you!

Don't count me for the giveaway, please. You're offering some great gifts, but I am totally swamped with too many projects AND scraps. I need to deal with my own, instead of adding more! :(
