I just couldn't resist..and a giveaway

I was itching to make another applecore quilt since I made my first project with the Go! cutter.
So I prepared a FQ stack of 1930's prints and cut a strip about 11" X 22" ( Fat eighth ) and folded it accordian style and away I went.

50 some FQ's later I had quite a stack of 'waste'. However, I processed the 'waste' and and turned it into scrap strips that I may use on the back of the quilt. And a few other interesting pieces that I plan of making into a pillow or something. I have many grandious ideas....not sure I have the time.
 I am really happy to have just cut into this bundle though.

 

This is the quilt top in progress. 
 I decided on 9 cores by 11 cores.
 It will be a good sized baby quilt.
Now here's the fun.
Have you ever wanted to try the applecore but just haven't made the leap??

Well you're in luck! I have 99 extra applecores.

If you'd like to win a set of die cut cores...
please leave me a comment about what your favorite fabric line is right now...
could be one not released yet....
seriously...I'm curious what other bloggers are drooling over!
I'll chose a winner at random on Monday, September 6th.

I love your apple core! Looks so great! This go! looks really like a very useful thing! Would love to win those pieces as I always wanted to do an applecore but always hesitated because of all that cutting! My favourite line at the moment is from french general: lumières de noel!
Have a great day!

Nancy said...

I would love to win the apple cores. I think I have a ruler for this, somewhere. It looks so cool when they are together and I would love to win. Even if I don't, I think I'm inspired to dig it out and give it a try!

Beehave said...

That is so cute. We went through 3 bushels of apples here last year ... I think it would be great to make one for my daughter.
I am really into mods right now especially frolic.
Thanks

rachandcarl said...

i cant wait for its a hoot by momo it looks great! and urban circus!

Unknown said...

Love your project!! I have the applecore die for my studio cutter and have a stack of them that needs to be pieced... so don't enter my name in the drawing. I just wanted to say how much I love them.

Robin (RsIslandCrafts) said...

Your apple core quilt is beautiful! I love all the new Halloween fabrics that are out this year. When I first came across 30's prints I didn't think I would like them. Now that I have seen more projects made using them, I have fallen in love with the colors.

Jenny said...

yes, would love to do apple core quilt...hesitation because of all the manual cutting it would mean to me!!
i am loving all things erin mcmorris right now...fell in love with her new line Weekends, which has caused me to revisit Park Slope and Wildwood and seriously lusting.

Christina D said...

My favorite right now is Prayer Flag by April Cornell. Your apple cores are so cheerful! 30's prints always make me smile.

Julie Bagamary said...

I love batik fabrics but these precut apple core ones would make a wonderful preemie quilt for the Neonatal Unit.

Lee said...

Apple Cores - what a lovely giveaway! I would love to win some and make something for my mother in law who has apple trees!

Your apple core is fantastic.At the moment I'm sewing my second hexie quilt, and afterfwards I plan to make apple core.I'm in love with 30'
prints but here in Croatia it is very hard to get any.

Amanda Naomi said...

Vickie, this quilt is amazing!I have always wanted to try apple cores, but am yet to bite the bullet, so i would love a chance to win these, it would mean no more excuses!!
My favourite line at the moment would have to be Domestic Diva by Riley Blake Designs, and Confections by Robert Kaufman - i have a thing for cupcakes! However i am also very partial to Happy by Me and My Sister Desings - oh i just cant decide :)

Anonymous said...

Oh, I would love your apple cores! I have wanted to make one of these for quite some time!

Retrogirl said...

Hey Vickie!! Love the GO cutter---especially for those tough to cut shapes that took FOREVER with shears. Now I need to buy the apple core one...THANKS. LOL

I'm flipping over Fandango. I want the whole line (which never happens since I'm such a scrap fanatic).

Michele said...

Grea giveaway!

Fuitcake or Fandango, I can't decid..

Debbie said...

I love the 30's apple cores. Would love,love,love them. I am leaning toward mod fabrics right now. I am also in love with anything Kaffe.

Mary Grace McNamara said...

Love your apple cores! And your pile of scraps! Great idea to process them into strips for the back!

I love Pure and French General, but I think Sandy Gervais' Frolic is still my current favorite...just love the colors she uses.

MGM

Sarah Craig said...

That is going to make a great baby quilt! I wouldn't mind making one of my own, with your lovely leftovers!! My favorite line right now is Urban Circus by Laurie Wisbrun....

Unknown said...

Pure is my favorite right now! Though the sneak peek of Sweetwater's upcoming Sunshine is just incredible too!

Linda said...

as i'm learning to type with my left hand, quilting has been put on the shelf. i broke my wrist on tuesday. i love all 30's and would love to win the applecores. this could be my first challenge back maybe in eight weeks or so...

Cherie said...

I am loving Fandango right now :)

SarDee said...

Fruitcake! I have started my Christmas list and I love the Fruitcake line... I have never worked with the 30s fabrics and would love to do an apple core with them.

Terry said...

I've always wanted to try apple cores! Thanks for the chance! My favorite fabric at the moment is Awesome by Sandy Gervais. I love fall colors! :0)

I have always wanted to make an apple core quilt but can't see past the cutting out stage. I would love to win your leftover apple cores! My current favorite fabric line is Dream On by Urban Chiks for Moda. I love the freshness and lightness.

Rebecca Merry said...

It's a Hoot by momo has me drooling right now! I would LOVE to try the apple core. I've been admiring them from afar but haven't had the courage as of yet!

Cheri C. said...

I LOVE BLISS!! And, I'm curious to know if the curve adapter that Julie mentions on her blog would work with these apple cores...??

Judy C said...

Would love to try an apple core quilt. My favourites right now are the kona solids and moda bliss.

cabesh said...

I really, really want to try Apple Cores (and I love that fabric). Right now I'm completely obsessed with Bliss by Bonnie and Camille. I just like to look at it.

Jody said...

I'm really loving the upcoming Dr. Seuss line. I've tried to come up with something to make with it, but so far, no luck.

Weatherbee ;) said...

What a GREAT giveaway! And I LOVE the fabric you've used. But...I have to admit I'm not good at keeping up with the latest fabric lines. Honestly my absolute FAVORITE way to find fabric is bargain shopping. Last night I scored at a local thrift store I'd never been to before and got like 8 different vintage prints for a couple dollars each! That's the kind of fabric I drool over!!! :) Thanks for an amazing giveaway!

cakegirl said...

I can not wait for the Dr. Seuss line to become available. Would love to win your apple cores. They make a greatlooking quilt.

Nancy said...

Would love to do an apple core quilt especially one cut on a Go. Thirties fabrics have alway been one of my favorites.
At the moment I am into Kaffe Fassett fabric.
Have a great day and I love to read your blog.

Yankee Valley Stitcher said...

Apple Cores are my FAVORITE pattern! I have made a small topper using "Paper Pieces", pre cut shapes. My favorite lines are reproduction fabrics...Jo Morton, Barbara Brackman.....love the old look!

Amy R said...

Congrats on the apple core. Favorite fabric line: Annandale by Jo Morton in pink. (actually like all the color ways, but LOVE the pink). It isn't out yet, but I can't wait!

Kathryn said...

Apple cores would be a great 'sit and watch TV' project this winter. I currently like Jo Morton's Crimson and Clover since I am working on a Christmas quilt. Kathie L in ALlentown

Tricia said...

I think Innocent Crush by Anna Marie Horner is really pretty! I also love your apple cores!

I'd love to enter to win the extra apple cores! Your quilt is wonderful. My favorite fabric that is on its way to me right now is FANDANGO by Kate Spain.

Heather said...

That apple core quilt looks AMAZING!! I would love to try my hand at sewing one up myself!! And already precut?!? Even better :-)
My favorite line right now is the MODA Pure. I just had a baby boy, so I think thats why I am loving it so much! Just waiting for a sale. The downside of living in Canada is that fabric up here is so freakin expensive! Ugh!

Oh, I want the apple cores but I don't have a favorite fabric line right now. Hmmmm, maybe Kona solids for the VERY PRESENT moment.

Fun Apple Cores... my favorite line right now is Fandango from Moda... Kate is brilliant and some of the fabrics are rxtremely drool worthy.

Cascade Quilts said...

right now I am in love with Moda's ''Dream On'' collection that is not yet released! It reminds me so much of my grandparents (who are both gone now). I cannot WAIT to get my hands on some!!! My second favorite are 30's prints! Love love love them! I have always oogled at the applecore quilts, but I am just not that good with scissors! I would love to be considered for your applecore parts! There is a blank wall at my grandparents cabin that my mom inherited - above the bed - that would be a great spot for an applecore 'headboard' quilt!

scrappy buttons said...

Those are so cute...what a wonderful pillow they would make...a very nice give a way....we have an Apple Harvest fest in our town in Oct.

Sherri said...

I seriously need to get a set of the apple core dies...they're so cute! I'm thinking Bliss is my favorite right now...because it's available in yardage...yay!

I love your apple cores and have never tried one but looks fun. I don't have a fabric like I am interested in right now but am anxious to try Superior's Silk Thread.

♥Duff said...

You "accidentally" cut too many or were just having too much fun?! Either way, thanks for "peeling" out the goods! I love Michael Miller's Vintage Trailers and Vintage Lawn Chairs. Can't get enough retro some days!

Anonymous said...

LOVE, love your apple cores! This is another pattern that I have been putting on my "wish list". It seems so old-fashioned to me. Would be so excited to win these....
My newest fav fabric is a line called "Domestic Divas" by Riley Blake. So retro & cool!
Thanks for the opportunity to win.

I've always wanted to make an apple core quilt. Winning those precut pieces would help a lot. Right now I'm seriously into Japanese prints.

Four dogs and one quilter said...

Love the apple core, to have them pre-cut would be a dream. So many great fabrics out now it is hard to pick a favorite..... Happy by Me and My Sister.

VickiT said...

Oh how fun. I love that fabric. I am not sure if I can name just one fabric as being my favorite. That 'favorite' title changes with each turn in a fabric store or each page online. LOL I can say that if it's purple, it's my favorite. lol

bobbie23nc said...

Today I'm loving Fandango and can't wait until Modern Affair comes out next month. I'd love to try my hand at putting your apple cores together.

nrnoodle said...

I think the accu cut is great. I had a friend at my last quilt guild that cut for me and I did longarm work for her. I have not tried making anything with apple core blocks yet. It would be fun to try. I have two favorite fabric lines right now. PS I love you and Frolic by moda.

Lisa said...

Apple cores, what a great giveaway! I'm currently in love with Fandango, so fun!

carmel said...

i love far far away 2!

Unknown said...

I wish I had the Go! Cutter because I have been drooling over your applecores since the first one. My favorite line right now is Punctuation right now by American Jane. I think it's the teacher in me but I love those letters. Love your quilt! Happy long weekend!

annemarie said...

Robert Kaufmans confections is a favorite of mine right now - love those cupcakes.

free indeed said...

I'm one of those that hasn't made that first leap of faith into curves. I did get an apple core template for Christmas from one of my girls because it is one I want to make; but I dread cutting around all those curves and I don't have the 28mm cutter yet anyway. Would love your precut ones to start me off! Love the colors of Neptune and Pure..aquas and greens with just a hint of brown or coral.

Cyn said...

Love the apple cores!

The two lines that I'm really, really interested in right now are;

Clermont Farms by Minick and Simpson

and

Wild Rose by Blackbird Designs.

I've never pieced an apple core quilt. It would be exciting to do so if I win. I really like the Bliss Petite by Bonnie & Camille right now....

Heather A said...

I would love to try applecores! I would also like to get my hands on some more Recess by American Jane for Moda.

If anyone out there has any (even scraps) of Recess, I would be very interested. Particularly in the orange, yellow and green colorways. And in the navy mini-dot.

I really really want the Nottingham Village by Judie Rothermel for Marcus Fabrics. They are such pretty blue and brown repros!

I have an apple core quilt on my list, but the templates are hard to find, and I don't have a Go!. Cute 30's fabrics :)

Teresa said...

Love the apple cores! My favorite fabric is the 12 Days of Christmas. I am making tablerunners for all the teachers for Xmas and am getting started this weekend.

Leah Spencer said...

I think my most treasured fabrics are the ones that I hand dyed with my mom. I'm afraid I just don't keep up with the fabric trends these days, especially since nobody in town carries Moda!

Anonymous said...

The applecores look like they would be fun to make up.

My all-time favourite fabric line is Park Slope By Erin McMorris.

My favorite line at the moment is Bliss - the colors are fabulous and I could easily hoard lots of it. LOL

MoeWest said...

I love Fandango by Kate Spain for Moda. Your apple core quilt looks good. I've never made one, love to try it. Thanks for giving away your extras.

Patty said...

Your apple core quilt is so cute. It would be a great baby quilt. I've wanted to make an apple core for quite awhile, but don't want to do all the cutting by hand. One of my favorite lines of fabric is fandango. Such wonderful colors.

Quilter Mom of 3 said...

My favorite fabric line right now would probably have to be Debbie Mumm's, especially her Halloween line.

I just finished making my husband an anniversary quilt out of four different fabrics from that line.

Our anniversary is on Halloween.

Wendy said...

Apple core - Baltimore .... Chip and Dale? Showing my age? Great job using your GO! Would love to use your left overs :) :) My favorite "drool" fabric is anything made by Sweetwater ... right now its Pure. I just purchased some yardage to make an Amy Butler purse. Enjoy your trip to the Fabric Shack and your visiting with friends. Thanks for the giveaway!!

Amy said...

I'm currently in love with Bliss! Doesn't everyone need a little bliss in their lives?! Thanks for the chance!

Unknown said...

i don't have a favorite "line" per se ... I tend to go by how they feel in person. sure cotton is cotton .. sure ... but every cotton "feels" different ... you know?

The apple cores are darling. My favorite fabric line for the last couple of years has been anything French General. But I do like repo and civil war, and 30's too :-) Thanks for entering me!

It's funny how history repeats itself. Being a child in the late sixties and seventies, I was a Cat in the Hat nut! Now it's back, just in time for PBS to carry Cat in the Hat programming on Tuesday here in the Washington DC area. My 3 year old will be thrilled. And I'm thrilled over Cat in the Hat fabric. Yep, definately my fav (at the moment, subject to change without notice).
