May Giveaway winners

Thank you so much to everyone who visited my blog for the May Giveaway. I hope you return!
Congrats to my 2 winners. I have emailed you to send me your address so I may forward your prize!

I haven't just been reading all the fabulous comments you have left me. I have a new quilt top in the works on my design wall. Here it is:

It started as a nine patch from the Moda Bake Shop. I got tired of just making nine-patches and did some half-square triangles (that turned into quarter-square triangles). I played with them and moved them around. I like this arrangement. It is small, either a baby quilt or a wall-quilt. I am going to start sewing the strips together tomorrow. This quilt was made from 6 FQs and 1.5 yds of the solid. It has been fun to piece.

Give away!

My May giveaway is open until 9pm, EST May 31! Don't hesitate to comment and leave your email addy! I will also post the user name of the winners on June 1.
Thanks for visiting, please check back.

May Giveaway fun!

Wow! It is great to have so many visitors! I am glad I spruced the blog up for my guests. I do hope you will return and see what I am making. Remember I am leaving the giveaway sign up open until May 31st. I will then select 2 random numbers for the winners. While your here, check out the older posts (a good tutorial on making quilt labels) and my Flickr link to see some of my older works.

Here is a detail of my king-sized quilt. I did a rail fence with batiks and prints in soft taupes, blues and greys. I will quilt it on my mom's long-arm later this summer.

May Giveaway!

Ok, so I got the day wrong, at least I got the date right! The May Giveaway is Wednesday, May 27, on sites all across the blogesphere! I am giving these prizes:

1. This lovely hand-made table runner. I call it "Cuppa Joe" and it features a cute coffee-cup print highlighted by lovely a lovely batik and coordinating dots. I free-motion quilted it as well.

2. This lovely set of 5 (five) fat quarters . All are nice quilt shop fabrics, in coordinating pinks and greens. A great addition to your stack, or perhaps the start of your next project!

How to win ? Well, please leave a comment including your email address. I will be using Random.org's random number generator to select 2 winners. I will then email the winners for their addresses, then I will ship the prizes. Pretty simple. And I will not select the winners until May 31, so you have plenty of time to comment. Tomorrow morning, visit SewMamaSew to see all the sites participating, register/comment to win and find lots of great ideas! Enjoy May Giveaway Day 2009!

Thanks!

New project

Inspired by Amandajean's Quilt A Long and this fun tutorial on Moda Bake Shop, I am making a 9 patch quilt.
I wasn't in love with any of the prints (they were given to me), but they are nice quality fabrics. I have wanted to use my solid Kona black as an accent AND I need a simple fun project to sit and work on when I have a few minutes to unwind and this fits the bill. I am not sure how large I will make it and I am not putting myself on a deadline with this. Just some mindless sewing!

This Tuesday, May 27, is the
sponsored by SewMamaSew. On this day, many of us Crafty bloggers are giving away neat stuff to our readers. I am participating. So remember, on Tuesday, May 27, visit SewMamaSew for the complete list of giveaway sites, then visit all the crafters, and try to win neat stuff!
