Giveaway Day!

***giveaway is closed now, check back soon for a winner!***

Hello friends! Today is the beginning of Giveaway Week at Sew, Mama, Sew, and I have a little Christmas mini quilt for one lucky commenter.
mini quilt for SMS giveaway day

It's about 10" x 11" and the appliqued tree and presents and the binding are from Moda's Merry and Bright line from a few years ago. 

And quickly, before you leave to go enter more giveaways, I wanted to let you know I will be hosting Focus on Free Motion Quilting next month! We will talk about getting started with free motion quilting (non-beginner quilters are welcome too!), and I have some great guest bloggers lined up to talk about their experiences with it as well. At the end of the month we'll have a link-up for participants to share projects with their new free motion quilting skills and there will be a few prizes as well. There's a button in the sidebar if you want to spread the word--and please check back on January 3 if you're interested in participating!


To enter to win the Christmas mini quilt, just leave a comment (one per person) telling me about your favorite thing you made this year. Make sure that you're *not* a no-reply blogger, or put your email address in the comment if you're not sure. The giveaway will be open until 12/16 (that's Friday) at 5 pm PST, and I'm willing to ship anywhere in the world this time. :)

Don't forget to head over to Sew, Mama, Sew for tons of other giveaways!

What an adorable mini!

This is an adorable mini quilt! I hope to one day add applique to my list of skills. This year was my first year quilting. I made my first quilt and I am QUITE proud! I cannot wait to make more, but it's not likely to happen until after Christmas is long gone. :)

I love the christmas dresden pillow I made the best!

Kylie Carlson said...

Thank you for the wonderful giveaway and the FMQ heads up, my goal for 2012 is to learn FMQ. My favorite finish this year is actually crochet rather than quilting- I made two sweaters for my new nephew and they turned out wonderfully. It was my first time crocheting clothing and I was amazed at how simple it was- plus baby clothes make up so fast! kcarlson1152[at]hotmail.com

Niina said...

Favourite thing I made this year was a blouse. It was the first time I finished an item made from a flimsy material and let me tell you, rotary cutter made all the difference.

Oso said...

My favourite thing I made this year was a baby quilt for my godson. Maybe not very professional, but I made it with all my love.

My Favorite project I finished this year was my Southwestern Inspiration quilt that I started nearly two years ago for a gentleman at my work. :) It took finishing 4 other quilts in order to have the confidence up to quilt for a commisioned quilt. :)

Finally finished my Beach Quilt this year and love how it came out. It was all paper pieced and I embellished with buttons, fusible accessories & my friend quilted in pink flamingos!!! It hangs in a place of honor in our beach-themed family room.
Love your little Christmas mini!!!

Tylynn said...

My favorite things I have made this year are some darling little girl skirts. Having 4 boys, the need to sew pink, ruffles or skirts doesn't come around very often! I made one for the little girl I babysit, and then for a friends 3 daughters. They asked for and are getting their daddy home from Army training just in time for Christmas. That was all this family could afford this year so I will be secretly dropping these tiny skirts, matching shirts and bows off for the kids to open for Christmas from Santa. Wish I could do more, but I hope this will make them happy.

My favorite thing I made this year was probably a Memorial Tree pendant for a woman I know. Our best friend (her son) passed away suddenly and about ten years ago, her other son passed away. I made her a Tree pendant with both of their birthstones in it together. I wanted to her to have a way to keep them both together close to her heart.

Ahhh, gorgeous! I love it!

My favorite things might be a tie. I made a quilt for my son out of his favorite (yet too small now) graphic tees which he adores, and just recently I knitted a sweater and hat in preemie baby sized that was too cute for words b/c it was so itty bitty! :)

Thanks for the giveaway - I'll be back to learn more about free motion quilting! Right now I stick with stitch in the ditch b/c I can't get the hang of free motion. :)

Anonymous said...

I have mostly been making fabric postcards this year for the Yahoo group TradingFabricPostcards. We decided to do an Alphabet theme and make a postcard to swap with each letter of the alphabet. We finished the last two this month. It was a great swap and I loved it because I was really inspired to think up something completely unexpected so I could surprise my swap partner. For example for the letter "I" I used the word Incognito and made a postcard of the glasses with the fake eyebrows, nose & mustache!!

Your quiltie is ever so cute. Thanks for the great giveaway!

My favorite thing is the mug rug that I made for my Mom. Just seeing the smile that it brought to her face was priceless.

Love that mini-quilt. I know next to nada about quilting but pretty blocks like that make me want to try it. Perhaps I will!

The most fun thing I've made all year is a Rapunzel crown/braid for my 3 year old granddaughter. It's a Christmas gift so she hasn't seen it yet. It wasn't difficult at all but the pleasure it will bring her (I hope!) is priceless.

I am most proud of a bridesmaids dress I made to wear at my friends wedding a few months ago. I am new to sewing.

I knitted a mini elephant. The pattern is called elephante on Ravelry and it is the cutest thing I have made this year.

Your mini quilt is so amazing!! What a great giveaway!! Thanks so much for the chance!!

I participated in my first swap this year--the modern christmas tablerunner swap run by Susan at Canadian Abroad--and I think the tablerunner I did with wonky trees and houses is my big accomplishment for the year. It's the first tablerunner I've done and really the first big project.

Hmm... well that's funny. I'm not sure I've actually finished much recently... I did make some new ornaments for the tree and since they are finished I guess they must count as my favorites.

My favorite was a vintage cowboy baby quilt. Loved how it turned out.

The favorite thing I made this year was my son's Vroom-Vroom PJ's from an Ottobre pattern. All the pieces made it a labor of love and it warms my heart every time he wears them.

I really need those free motion lessons. I'm going to be following!
