Some charm in your quilts? Giveaway #2

COMMENTS CLOSED and WINNER chosen! Thanks


Here is the second cool book I have to show you this week.

Put Some Charm in your Quilts

by Connie Kauffman.

This book is lovely.

There's is a trend toward pre-cut fabrics as you all know.

 This book's designs call for charms and they work perfectly in these quilts.

This one is my favorite.

I have a bundle of this Moda fabric that I haven't used much of...

so I could make this...wow my list of quilts is growing.

Book Review and Giveaway

COMMENTS CLOSED winner chosen!!
THANKS

Have you seen this new book?

I was asked by DRG to review a few quilt books for them this week.

I've done this once before and I was really interested in these.

I will be giving away a couple of the books this week.

The first one up this week is Bed Runners &More.

It includes 9 patterns for bed runners and six pillow sham styles.

Overall there are projects for a beginner all the way to advanced.

There are step-by-step instructions and color photos of each design. 

My favorite project is the patriotic runner.

I can totally see myself making this....

I'm always searching for seasonal or holiday patterns that can be used year round.

You know IF I forget to put that season away LOL.

About the giveaway,

A little Irish Blessing pillow for the "season".

My daughter's birthday is March 16th and so she considers St. Patrick's Day her holiday.

She's 50% East Indian....

no true Irish blood in her....

so I have a laugh about that each year,

 still... I make her these "decorations".

I don't think I will make this pattern again, it's a quick pattern but once is enough.

So, I decided to give it away.

Here is the pattern photo....

Heart Felt Finds is the designer plus the link to the original pattern in case you'd like to buy it.

It's only $3 and frankly,

 I am tempted to buy a few more of their designs.

Back to the giveaway....

if you'd like to win my copy,

Leave me a comment on this post and I will choose a winner on February 24th.

That way you still have time to stitch it up before St. Patty's Day.
