Giveaway Day!

12 May 2014
**GIVEAWAY NOW CLOSED**


That cornucopia of fabric is a lot to take in. It is a slightly mad and eclectic mix. Fifteen different fabrics and they are all approx 1/8 yard cuts (some more, some slightly less) taken from my ongoing English paper pieced quilt project.


Since I am still working on the borders but have finished using all the main fabrics for the rose stars I thought I could share some of what I have left!

Let's break it down shall we?


{despite my best efforts I have no idea what that colour is! It could be Mint by Bella Solids}; Chinese Lanterns, Lark by Amy Butler; Kasbah, Lark by Amy Butler; Jewels by Lizzy House; Mallow and Bee, Misaki by Melissa White.


School Bus by Kona; Triflora, Loulouthi by Anna Maria Horner; Lovesme Lovesmenot, Innocent Crush by Anna Maria Horner; City Planting, Habitat by Jay McCarroll; Raise The Roof, Habitat by Jay McCarroll.


{Again not sure but I think it's Popsicle by Bella Solids}; Souvenir, Lark by Amy Butler; Dot N' Square, Mini Mikes by Michael Miller; Farmhouse Birds, Farmhouse Retreat by Renee Nanneman of Need'l Love for Andover; Floral Drop, Deer Valley by Joel Dewberry.

GIVEAWAY CLOSED - THANKS FOR ENTERING!
To win the entire 1/8 yard bundle of fifteen fabrics just leave a comment telling me what your favourite band or song was when you were fifteen. (I suspect mine was something from Crazy, Sexy, Cool by TLC or Gangsta's Paradise!)
For a second chance to win follow Charm About You by Bloglovin, GFC or email and leave another comment.

I like to reply to comments but since giveaways are usually busy I won't reply to comments on this post. That doesn't mean that no-reply bloggers will be able to win though! If I can't reach you then you can't win, so please leave your email (myemail at soandso dot com) in the comment.

The giveaway is open internationally, the winner will be chosen by random.org and announced on 17th May.
Once you've entered head over to Sew Mama Sew to see more great giveaways!

baby bear paw quilt

12 July 2013

I got a bear in my bonnet last night and decided I wanted to finish the bear paw quilt.

I had a play around with the layout, I didn't like it all random so I just played with moving the colours:


keeping it real, there were toys all over the floor!


I'm super happy with the end result, I love it.



I used prints from the Stash Stack Club bundles and low volume prints from a swap organised by the lovely Rebecca


The backing is from Winter Wonderland by Jay McCarroll and the binding is McKenzie stripe by Dena Designs.


I can't even remember where I got it and I wish I'd bought tonnes of it because it is so awesome and adds a fun element to the quilt. I like that it sort of looks like a zip too!


**This quilt is listed for sale in my Etsy shop!**

It is the first finish off my FAL list for this quarter!

So with the baby bear done I'm going to move on to grown up bear paw blocks, if you want to make some along with me then join the Flickr group. There's lots of great modern inspiration there too!
