OK, I see a lot of bloggers doing this so I thought I'd jump on the giveaway bandwagon. This is actually my 101st post but I noticed Friday's was number 100!
Just remember one woman's (or man's) junk is another one's treasure. I'm not saying it is all junk, but it is something I no longer want in my closet.
With the help of my brother and sister we just moved my mom from a 3 bd home that she has been in for 18 years to a 1 bd apartment. It reminded me to clean the clutter from my house so nobody will have to roll their eyes at my collections of stuff!
Several years ago I ordered a BOM pattern from The Quilted Garden. (can't find them online any longer) It was Botanika by Robyn Pandolph- very beautiful. It could be elegant or you could make it more loose and primitive. I did 2 blocks, prepped a 3rd and now I would like it gone.
If you do a google search for Robyn Pandolph Botanika quilt you will see the whole quilt as she did it. I also see a few shops still offering it as a BOM.
The only thing I ask is that the winner do something with the 2 blocks that are already made. Use them as a medallion then donate them to a charity,or whatever, but don't just chuck them in the thrift store bin and keep the patterns. I want to see what you do with the 2 blocks. The other thing is don't look too closely at my hand applique:)
What you will win: 2 completed appliqued blocks, 1 blocked pinned and pieces cut out, 12 patterns by Robyn Pandolph. These blocks finish at 20".
Feel free to comment even if you don't want the patterns or blocks, just let me know.
Cut off time will be Tuesday night 9PM Pacific time. I'll post the winner on Wednesday.
what a great giveaway someone will enjoy finishing your project. As much as I would love to take one of your applique blocks and make a medallion quilt from it, would be a fun challenge I will pass
ReplyDeleteI know I won't use all the patterns and someone else will

I enjoy reading your blog and Love your quilts!

ReplyDelete100th post, amazing how they do add up. I have a wedding late summer and your blocks would make great pillows, or like Kathie suggested a round robin. Count me in and thanks for sharing, I'm sure your applique will be in place for years to come.
ReplyDeleteWow! I can't believe that you'd give away those beautiful blocks after all the work you put in to them. But I guess I can understand wanting to clear out some stuff. I'd love to be the lucky winner of your giveaway!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your 101th post!
ReplyDeleteYour quilts are very lovely.
Please put my name in for your drawing.

ReplyDeleteCongartulations on over 100 posts. Someone will be thrilled to win the blocks and patterns, I'll pass for the same reason you're giving them away probably.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on 100 posts! What a wonderful giveaway. I would love to finish the block you started and make something from the three finished blocks or even continue on with the rest of the blocks to finish the quilt.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your 101 post! It's amazing how fast the time goes by isn't it?
ReplyDeleteThe applique blocks that you have completed are very pretty - wouldn't they all look nice put together or even they could stand alone as pillows. I would love to be entered into your drawer! Thank you for the chance to win :)
