I enjoyed catching up with lots of people, some of whom told me they are lurkers on my blog, so WELCOME! I am happy for you to lurk, I am only unhappy that I cannot see YOUR show and tell! Sure blogging takes up a bit of my time, but so does cleaning, cooking and ironing! So if you decide to make 2012 the year to take up blogging, please leave me a comment with your blog address, I would love to come visit.
OK now the important stuff...New Year Resolutions?....No? Oh OK I will do that later, how about a give away?
One Moda Northcote charm pack and a Chook pot holder made by me!
All you have to do is leave me a comment on this post before midnight Sunday 8th January 2012, telling me what your first quilting project planned for 2012 is. It can be a UFO or something you just want to make.
PLEASE leave an email address in your comment if you don't have a blog (you don't have to be a follower) and I will draw the winner on Monday 9th January using Mr Random Generator. This give away is open to everyone, in the spirit of the festive season I am prepared to post overseas!
Happy quilting Sue SA.

Love the prize! I've just finished a zig zag quilt top - so I guess my first goal is to quilt it! Also I'm make my mum an improv. quilt, so that is high on the list too.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 100 posts!

ReplyDeleteMy first 3 projects for 2012 are UFOs:
1) handsewing hexies for a GFG quilt;
2) assemble Birdie Stitches quilt top.
AND, if win this prize then will have the charms to attempt this BOM http://www.elefantz.com/2012/01/new-free-bom-quilt-pattern-for-2012-and.html
Congrats on 100 posts! My first project for 2012 will be to actually get into the sewing room! Hasn't happened yet :(. But when it does I am going to finish three bags that are cut out ready to sew.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a creative year ahead.
I must be absolutely mad, but my first planned project is a Lone Star quilt!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your 100th post milestone too.

ReplyDeleteOh my!! LOVE that Chook-- it's adorable!! If I don't win, that is definitely going to be on my to-do list--- well, even if I *DO* win, it's going on my to-do list-- what a wonderful gift it would be for family and friends!!! Cute, cute, cute!! AND, such a coincidence that right after entering another giveaway where you had to go to an online shop and choose your favorite fabric-- and the one I chose was the Northcote Range Cabbages and Roses!! Coincidence or fate? Fate, I hope! :-) Thank you so much for the chance to win your fantastic prize!!! Crossing my fingers!
ReplyDeleteOops! Had to delete my first post-- I got so excited by the prize that I forgot to tell you what my first sewing project for 2012 is going to be! I am working on a quilt top-- pretty simple one-- it's a tumbler design and has a border with appliqued flowers on it. :-)
My first project is to finish up a wedding quilt. It is being machine quilted right now by a "longarm lady" :)
ReplyDeleteI'll need to sew the binding and add a label.
It is for my son who was married on 9.10.11
Words of Wisdom - I have 100 6" finished sqaure blocks with handwritten words of wisdom from Friends and Family. Some are very artful with pictures and such. All have an autograph from the wellwishers. I set it in with 1 inch sashing and corner stones. Can't wait to get it into the hands of the newlyweds... it may have some special powers too ... like - "baby-maker powers" - awh - I know - don't rush them :)

Congrats on the 100th. I have been busy so have completed a puppet and a new camera strap. I have a quilt half quilted so that will be my next project.
ReplyDeleteYay for 100 posts!
ReplyDeleteI don't quilt, but I do love many Moda fabrics! I wouldn't have a clue what to do with a charm pack, so please leave me out of the give-away. My first projects for this year, though, are to draft my own patterns for t-shirts (getting there, I'm still tweaking) and both make the pattern and a dress for a friend!
Congratulations on 100 posts! Looking forward to the next 100.
