So I think it's time to say thank you. It's time for my first giveaway! Two winners!
Winner No. 1 gets: A custom-designed/illustrated blog header by a professional graphic designer—me. : ) I'll work with the winner to choose colors, fonts, a subject matter for the illustration, etc. Then I'll create something that's uniquely yours and can be dropped into your blog template, along the lines of my header above. If you'd like to incorporate photos into the header (either in addition to or instead of the illustration), that's fine. And if you already have a blog header that you like, I can design a button for your swap/bee instead, or even a custom quilt label that you can have printed on Spoonflower. The choice is yours!
Winner No. 2 gets: These fabulous "Mod Charm" fat quarters from Anthology Fabrics.
So, you know the rules, ladies. You get up to three chances to win.
Chance 1: Leave any comment here. Tell me what you're working on, what you wish you were working on, whatever you want.
Chance 2: Comment that you're a follower. (Reader counts.)
Chance 3: Blog about my giveaway and shoot me a comment on that. I'm still not on the Twitter, so sorry, no chances there.
I'll announce the winners on Oct. 25. Good luck, and thanks for reading!
GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED.

Hey! I blogged your giveaway! So fun!
ReplyDeleteA.J.
And I already follow you.
ReplyDeleteAnd I am working on my Cherry quilt border which is driving me crazy. I WISH I was working on my 12 Days of Christmas tree skirt.
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog, and have added it to my favorites! loved your information on Spoonflowering, how great is that! Love your imagination too!! :)
ReplyDeleteI forgot to mention what I am working on...just started making "postcards" (so much fun), have several sets of placemats to finish for Christmas, love making fabric bowls/boxes, and of course a pile of quilt tops that still need to be quilted and binding added. (and somehow the pile never gets much smaller???!!)
ReplyDeleteWow - great giveaway! I'm currently working on a bunch of to-dos, including a rag quilt for my brother, placemats for my Mom, and a Christmas Tree skirt. Oh, and some ornaments for a Flickr swap.
ReplyDeleteI'm now a follower - great Spoonflower ideas. My daughter just started preschool this year, and my mind is swimming with ideas for teacher gifts, not to mention stuff for grandparents etc.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a blog, but it would be way cool to have my own custom made Spoonflower quilt label (or fabric)! What a great first giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI now follow on google reader. So glad I found your blog!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway--maybe I will finally win one of these blog header giveaways! I really like your header :) I am working on a few things, as usual! I am making two quilts for a pair of brothers who have a mom in prison and I am making a quilt for a sweet 13 year old who has had a very hard life-I run a non-profit organization called Margaret's Hope Chest--these three quilt projects are connected to my work there.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

Ok, I have to admit Lee, I saw this post first, before there were any comments, and purposely decided to come back later to hopefully win (when does the RNG ever pick #1????)!!! Ooooh oohh pick me!! :o) I already follow and love your stuff.
ReplyDeleteI am working on a baby quilt for a baby that arrived on Monday!! I just can't seem to get ahead....even though I have nine months to complete things things, they are NEVER done on time. I'm using Urban Circus. It makes me think of the elephants marching in the Jungle Book.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing prize! I felt much the same way about starting a blog - still do really. I am astonished that anybody wants to read my twaddle!
ReplyDeleteYour blog header is gorgeous! :-)
I'm already a follower. :-)
ReplyDeleteOh, what a wonderful idea for a giveaway!
ReplyDeleteRight now I'm working on: Tweetygigs for my daughter, and a spring sampler wall-hanging, and I'm waiting for my dad's Sawblades to come back from the longarmer's. I wish I were working on the Quilt of Valor quilt I've got an idea for--it'd be my first original-ish design...
And I'm already a follower. :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome giveaway!! I'm working on a bento box tutorial, using some charm packs I've had lying around for a while now. Tedious, but man, I love how these things look!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm already a follower :)
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed. I *need* a new blog header and yours is so good! : ) I'm working on a quilt for fall and finishing up another top that's been sitting around for months. Time to finish already.
ReplyDeleteI'm a happy follower. ; )

ReplyDeleteshannoncarman at yahoo dot com
What an awesome giveaway! I have a pretty drab blog so I'd love a custom header ... the fabric would do nicely too :)
ReplyDeleteRight now I'm making some star blocks and seeing what they turn into. I'm also staring at a completed quilt top to see if it will baste and quilt itself.
I just added you to my google reader.

ReplyDeleteI just found your blog though Flickr. I love your Chained quilt! Isn't Amy great? I am now a proud follower. Thanks for the giveaway!
