New Giveaway- Pansy Faced Pooch Pattern



It's been a LOOOOOOOONG time since we did a giveaway.  Time to start up the monthly fun again!

Pansy Faced Pooch is one of the Flower Dog pattern series designed by Helene Knott.  Helene also designed the popular Garden Patch Cat Series of patterns.  (You'll be seeing a lot more of the cats on this blog in coming months!).  It's an easy applique pattern.  You can do hand or machine applique.  Helene has included instructions for several methods in the pattern.

 It's super easy to enter.  For a chance to win, just comment to THIS POST.  That's it!  Easy peasy.

Want a second chance?  Do a SECOND COMMENT to THIS POST and tell me that you are a follower of this blog.  You can be a long-time follower or brand new.  Just remind me that you are a follower.

Two chances not enough?  For a third chance, spread the word. It doesn't matter how- tweet, do a facebook post, take out a full page add in a magazine :-)  You get ONE extra chance for spreading the word.  No multiple chances for tweeting and doing a facebook post.  Spread the word as much as you like and do a THIRD COMMENT to THIS POST and  tell me you shared the news and you'll get ONE extra chance.  FYI, we do have an Alderwood Quilts facebook page and we LOVE Pinterest!

And for a FOURTH chance (YEA!) tell me what you'd like to see more of on this blog.  I haven't been active for a while and want to get started again.  I'd love to hear what you want to see.  New products?  Tutorials?  What kind?  Techniques?  Quilt-alongs?  I have lots of ideas but I'd like to hear yours first.

I'll do a random drawing on June first to select the winner.  Be sure to do a comment for each chance.  That's how I count to see how many numbers to put in the random number generator.

Good luck!

That is such a cute dog-flower. I've never seen this pattern, I can't wait to see the others. Thanks for the generous giveaway. ;-> Toni Anne

I'd love to see more tutorials. I like to pickup tips of all kinds, you can never learn too much. I even like to hand bind my quilts, now that I've learned so many tricks. Thanks again, Toni Anne ;->

Adorable. I had not seen any of the Flower Pooch designs. Love how you really see a flower and at the same time a pooch. Too cute. I have got to make one (probably more) of these.

Fun pattern, Sue! My MIL used to call pansies dog-faces, so your post made me think of her.

Tutorials are always wonderful. You never know what you need to learn. The other day I was teaching someone parallelograms and couldn't find a good tutorial.

Reminds me of a dog looking at a treat! How cute!
