Isn't it lovely? There is a tutorial here.
So, why am I in Cleveland, you ask? My husband's basketball team is playing in a tournament at Case Western Reserve University this weekend. We lost last night's game quite badly, but still, I found reason to smile. Jason dressed up so he could help out the trainer with water bottles for the players and sit on the bench. Doesn't he look tiny next to these guys?
Anyway, losing depresses me, so I came online to see if there were any giveaways I could try to win. Here's what I have found:
a $25 gift certificate for FABRIC here
five patterns here
2 fat quarters here
A beautiful shadow trapunto mini quilt here
The pattern for this beautiful quilt which includes embroidery (which those who follow me know is my latest craze!) here
Oh, and I am supposed to share a quote about my beautiful life. I chose a quote by John Burroughs: 'I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see." Of course, I would amend it to add "all the quilts I want to make"!
Coordinating fabrics OR a Christmas table topper here
a 2010 Artbra calendar here
Hand dyed fabric here
And a conglomeration of stuff - fabric, books, patterns, etc. here
OK, that's enough, right. No need to be greedy. Now, to catch up up what you all have been doing.

I totally agree with the quote and your addition to it! There are not enough hours in the day and working full time just interferes with my quilting time!
Love the quote. Have fun in Cleveland and thanks for sharing all the give-a-ways.
Good luck on the other games but have a great time there anyway. Thanks for all the giveaway sites. Take care

I'm just finishing up that scrappy strip quilt. Its a good pattern. And turned into such fun colorful quilt.
I entered some of those giveaways and also order the "life is beautiful" pattern, journal and iron on transfers from Australia. I'm really impressed by the patterns and work I see online from the Aussie's aren't you?
Haven't had a visit from you to my blog lately.......come on by have a cup of tea :0).
Happy Sewing and have a blessed Thanksgiving,
Kim
