2009 CONTEST!

okay people, I'm a little disappointed (sniff, sniff). I didn't get as many comments as I thought I would.

But did get a few contest ideas. I also got several other ideas from local friends of mine. But I have to say, Kelli's last minute comment made me laugh and got me thinking of all my crazy sewing ideas.

So, with that,

Kelli is our contest-contest winner!

(Please email me with your contact info.)

Now for the REAL contest rules:

Leave a comment telling us the craziest thing you've ever sewn/quilted etc. The contest ends on Jan. 31. The prize is one of our not-yet-released patterns and kit to go with.

All right you crazy quilter's let me hear it!

CONTEST?

Ok. Christmas is right around the corner.

January is coming up quick.

The economy... let's not talk about it.

All of these are reasons why we, the quilter's of the world, have begun to scale back our trips to the quilt shop, and deprive ourselves of one of the most glorious things in life:

NEW stuff!

So, since we're all trying to be sensible and "prioritize" our needs and our wants,

I'm going to do my part and GIVE someone some

NEW STUFF!

I have to be honest though. I have no idea what kind of contest to do. I've read a ton of blogs, and there are lots of great ones. But none that I feel "crazy" enough for us.

Therefore, this contest is going to have 2 parts and 2 winners!

Winner #1 will be the person who gives me the best idea for a contest.

Winner #2 will be the person who actually wins the contest.

What is the prize you may ask?

The winners will each recieve hand picked quilt kit and a not-yet-released "CrazyOldLadies" pattern.

Ok, so you're going to have to trust me

that it's going to be worth it.

C'mon, look at our stuff. Cute, right!?

Leave your ideas in the comment section of this post through the end of the year (12/31/08). The the real contest will run through the month of Jan.

I'll post the winner of the "idea" portion when I post the "constest" rules the first week of Jan.

Can't wait to hear your ideas!

Baby Boom

Okay, these little beauties are part of our "Two Hour, Tops!" line. A group of quilt tops that take roughly 2 hours to make. Can I just tell you how fast these whip up, but they still look like a million bucks. Plus, who doesn't know someone expecting a new little baby. These precious bundles make the perfect (and easiest) gift. Besides, who doesn't like a 2-in-1!

Heart Attack!

I found these beautiful reds and pinks at Village Dry Goods in Brigham City, UT (thanks ladies!) and knew I had to design a new quilt for lovey dovey day! Since valentine fabrics are on their way to quilt shops this month (can you believe it!?) I thought I'd better get this posted for all to see!

A little late!

We love our "Which Witch?" pattern so much, we just want to use it all year long! So, we changed the pattern to include the added template for this cute Christmas Elf. I should have posted this a month ago when we did it, but I didn't have a good picture on my computer. Anyhow, here it is! Hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
