Giveaway News

Hi, first I'd like to thank you all who participated and hopped during Michele's Giving Thanks Blog Hop. It was so much fun. I met a lot of wonderful new bloggers, now follow more blogs, won a giveaway! - just had a wonderful time. I hope you had a great time likewise. I was thrilled I had 146 comments to my post, 20 new followers and many new followers via email and Bloglovin'. Welcome!  Now for my giveaway. I use Random.org to pick the winners.



The winner of the Karen McTavish book is Valerie in OR: Valerie wrote: "Hi I'm from Oregon. Would love the quilting book...thanks for the chance to win it!"

Cathy in Canada won the pattern pack. Cathy said: "I'm A Canadian, living in Southern Ontario. I love Karen K. Buckley's work, so her book would be my choice. Also, I love applique, even if I don't seem to have the time for it, at the moment."

Congratulations to you both!  Emails have been sent...

And I won, too! Benita at Victoriana Quilters offered a lovely pattern for a hearts quilt and my name was picked.  Go here to see it.

Again, thanks so much, Michele at the Quilting Gallery for putting on this Blog Hop.

Applique Tuesday

I have done a bit of work on my LE - mainly working on the stems to Part 4.  That vase you see is one of 6 I am considering. I scanned the fabrics I'm thinking of using and then cut out paper vases to see how they would work.  To not use a ton of ink for these, I drew the shape on a white piece of paper, then cut it out.  Then I laid the paper on the copier and placed the fabric on top, so the printer only laid down color where the vase shape was.  Some of the stems will be embroidered. Oh, and all the elements you see aren't fused down yet.

How are you doing on your project?  Would love to see how it's going.  Linky below.
I'm linking to Esther's WOW and Connie's Linky Tuesday.  See you there.
