I love hosting giveaways! They are fun, exciting and JOYFUL! When putting together this giveaway, I knew I had to include two things I had mentioned to make perfect piecing so much easier... Aurifil 50wt thread and The Clearly Perfect Angles mat by New Leaf Stitches. I then asked Pat Sloan if she would consider offering a charm pack of her NEW Moda line Hometown Girl and she sent TWO ( I LOVE PAT)! This is not an "official" The Splendid Sampler Giveaway but it seemed to fit ;o)
One winner will receive one Clearly Perfect Angles courtesy of Kari Carr from New Leaf Stitches (thank you Kari), two FAB charm packs of Hometown Girl by Pat Sloan for Moda Fabrics and three large spools for Aurifil 50wt thread in three stunning colors!!!!
You do not have to be participating in The Splendid Sampler Sew along to enter! You are not required to do all of the options to be entered. Choose one or all! Your chances will increase with the more options you choose :o) A random winner will be chosen by Rafflecopter and I will contact you by email on or about 16 March 2016.
Thank you everyone that participated in the FUN giveaway!
CONGRATULATIONS to AFTON WARRICK for winning the FUN prize package! Look for an email from me :o)

ReplyDeleteI like piecing and try for that perfect joining of squares that match on all corners,

ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI love both piecing & applique .
ReplyDeletecurrent favorite is English paper piecing and Hawaiian applique :-)
ReplyDeleteRight now I am enjoying wool applique, but I'm itching to get back to some EPP.
ReplyDeleteI love the zen of 1/4" seams and watching the blocks come together piece by piece. Also enjoy EPP. I have mixed feelings about applique as my eyes are not great for hand and I don't like the stiffness of fusible. However, I do incorporate applique as needed.
ReplyDeleteI am really enjoying the Splendid Sampler journey so far. Learning a lot of new techniques.
ReplyDeleteApplique is my favorite, I live the feel of fabric in my hand!
ReplyDeleteI love piecing; applique, eh. It's okay. But I do the applique, when I want the quilt.

ReplyDeleteI really like epp. I have made 3 quilts with some epp in them.

ReplyDeleteI like piecing! However, I have not tried all of the different methods yet, because I'm still new to quilting.

ReplyDeleteIt is difficult for me to choose! I enjoy all of them! I do more piecing, but I love EPP and am still learning/improving my applique. I started out as a handstitcher, so I enjoy all of the handwork, but do end up doing more piecing by machine. Honestly, I love it all! Seems there is something to do no matter what my mood is on a given day! LOL
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for doing this. I enjoy piecing and appliqué and need to brush up on my embroidery skills.

ReplyDeletelove to learn new techniques... paper piecing is new to me

ReplyDeleteThanks for the big Quilty Hugs! I follow you on Bloglovin and stand in awe at the beautifully pieced quilts you make.

I am learning sew much from participating in the Splendid Sampler...small pieces though...someday I wish to be a grown-up piecer, just like YOU! judieharron@yahoo.com
ReplyDeletePiecing~ including paper piecing. I like to do fusible applique, but needle turn really slows me down. LOL Thanks for the fun!

ReplyDeleteI love plain "pedal to the metal" machine piecing. My happy time!

ReplyDelete
