Last week, I launched my Pushme Pullme block pattern. Thank you so much for all that left comments of support and who liked my pattern. It is so wonderful to have that kind of response.
Randomly chosen, the winners are as follows:
Jess (One English Teacher) who won a copy of the pattern and two fat quarters.
Allison C who one the Improv Quilt book for visiting all sites.
An email is on its way to get your addresses etc. Hope everyone is having a great weekend.
In my first of year of quilting, I have discovered two things I enjoy buying – Fabric + Quilting and Design Books. I will admit, I have a little addiction to both….who doesn’t, right :-).
I would love the opportunity to share the quilting books I have been reading and trying out. So, every two weeks, on Tuesday, I am going to do a book review and share projects, blocks or ideas from the book. I am going to try this out for one year, and if you all enjoy it, we can keep it going.
Oh, and the BIG NEWS….In conjunction with the review, I will have a give-away for that particular book each week.
What do you think? Do you like the idea? What would you like to see first?
I have so many ideas, we can try through-out the year, to make this fun all round. For example:
I am starting the event next week. I hope you will come back, participate and enjoy the experience as much as I do.
A disclaimer, all reviews and opinions of the books reviewed will be mine, unless otherwise stated.
I am so excited to make available my Pushme Pullme Block Pattern. The final block measures 15″. It is a quick, easy and versatile pattern.
The overall design came about originally with a quilt in mind, that I am currently making for a friend’s little boy.
My testers have done an amazing job, using the pattern in many ways, highlighting the versatility of the block. Check out their finishes!!
Ashley @ Wasn’t Quilt in a Day created an amazing pillow with teal and pink arrows, with a popping yellow edging.
Kristel @ Work-in-Progress Girl created a mini quilt and played around with the colors represented in the sashing to make it truly unique.
Mara @ Secretly Stitching used it as the front of a very cute play mat tote for her nephew. Extremely adorable.
Sarah @ Sarah Quilts made some great pillows for Christmas gifts for a male friend. I love the use of black and reds.
The pattern can be found on Craftsy and Etsy. I have also added it to my right-hand side menu for easy access.
