Let The Party Begin....


Tomorrow starts the Quilters Gallery Blog Hop Party with Give-Aways.  I'm starting today as I'm going to be busy this weekend and didn't want to forget.


Here is my offering....An Omnigrid Mini-Foldaway and a Charm Pack (Collections for a Cause-COMFORT) by Moda. 

You have until Saturday, December 17th at Noon.  I will pick a winner that night.  All you need to do is leave a comment letting me know what your favorite quilt block is that you can make using 5" charm squares.  You don't need to be a follower but I would be honored for you to be a follower.  Good Luck.  Can't wait to see what your favorite block is.

Be sure I have a way of contacting you to let you know you won!

PS If you are a follower you will get 2 chances to win.

Hugs, Cathy

    Hmmm...my favorite block is the Pineapple Log Cabin, but the block would have to be really tiny to use charms. I guess you could make a Friendship Star block using the charms.

    Well, I've got to be honest and say I've never made anything from a charm square. I'm thinking half square triangles sewn together in a zigzag pattern would be a fun way to use one though. Thanks for hosting the giveaway!

    My favorite block....well, I've been following Barbara Brackman's Civil War quilt blocks and I'd have to say right now that I like best the one I'm working on. Every one of them is so lovely and some I want to use in quilts by themselves. Can't choose!
    Hope you are enjoying the blog hop.

    Disappearing 9-patch or 1/2 square triangles intermingled with Black Kona Cotton...it helps to make the quilts pop!

    I spend a lot of time at doctor's offices waiting on 2 sets of parents. I love to hand piece so I carry a baggie with me everywhere. It's helped to start up some rather interesting conversations. Lately, I've been into sewing yo-yo's. We made a yo-yo chain for one of my guild members recouperating after extensive back surgery in a nursing home We hung the chain over her window and when she received cards, we pin them to the chain.
    Merry Christmas!

    Love it. I would use the charm squares to make my economy squares that I have been working on little by little. Or my triangles for my 1000 pyramid quilt. But I think that may be near to completion. Either way I know it would be used well. Thanks for the opportunity.
