Holiday Giveaway
This is a short one- just running 11 days. I'll draw the winner on New Years' Day, so be sure to get your name in by New Years' Eve.
The draw is for Jennifer Chiaverini's book, "The Runaway Quilt", and 5 VERY colorful fat quarters. I had to take a second picture of the FQ's spread apart because they all blended together in the first picture! Pair these with some "quieter" fabrics for a striking project!
If you're not familiar with Jennifer's books, they are novels about the very gripping lives of a fictional group of quilters. Very popular!
For one entry, comment on this post and just tell me you want to be entered. If you don't like to comment on blogs, just send me an email.
You will receive a second entry if you are a follower of this blog.
You will receive a third entry if you have a blog of your own and tell your readers about this giveaway.
And a 4th entry if you blog about my Strips n' Curves templates that are on special.
Want a 5th entry? Send me a picture of a Strips n' Curves quilt (no-- you can't copy one out of the book- but you can talk someone else into letting you take a picture of theirs!)
AND... speaking of wonderful giveaways, I read Micki's blog, called Irish Muses. Micki and I have an email conversation going-- we both grew up in Philadelphia, both lived in Texas, and now she is in Ireland and I am in Oregon... both very green places! I am of Irish heritage and Micki now lives very close to my family in Ireland. The internet certainly makes this a small world! She is having a wonderful Christmas giveaway. Check it out.

I've heard much about this author, but never have read any of her books..our library doesn't carry them. I'd like to have a nice read for the winter days ahead. I'm a follower too!
What a wonderful giveaway! Thanks for the chance!
I could go crazy with the fat quarters you have posted today. I have taken the strips and curves class with Wanda as my teacher. Lucky me.
I have used the templates to make 3 or 4 strips and curves. And the fabric is waiting for the next strips and curves. I'll start it Christmas evening!
Please enter me into your wonderful give away!
Well, Gene said NOT to come check out your giveaway 'cause he thought he'd win but I had to come check out what you had and lemme tell you...I just had to post here and tell you how wonderful those fabrics are!!!
