MoreQuilt Kits for Giveaway!!!!


I found a few more quilt kits today to be given away next Friday, Dec. 14th. Just leave a comment saying which ones you like. I don't have many followers so it's likely that anyone that leaves a post will receive at least one (most likely a few) kits. So go through these and then go down a couple of posts and look at those and leave comments on the ones you would like. Tell me if you want a few or just one. Doesn't matter to me. You are not being greedy. I am giving them away. Even my old friend from along time ago, Barbara Corbitt, is invited to comment on them. Good luck.

Here's the first new one I found today:
This is a pretty fancy get up. I've never seen one like this. It's felt with embroidery floss and other items with it.

Next:
This is a really big (my husband is holding this up above his head and it goes below his knees) panel and comes with coordinating fabric. There is no pattern. I guess you just figure it out yourself. I am not that gifted. Here is some of the coordinating fabric:
I should have spread it out more. There is quite a bit there. I guess we can call this the "Summery House" panel, if you want it. It would be so cute when it's done!

This next one is so pretty and delicate. The fabric is lovely! Here is the pattern. It's kind of light and hard to see, but it's very pretty and the fabric below is so so pretty.

This is called "Garden Arbor".

And this last one I bought at my local quilt shop. She had a boy's quilt and a girl's quilt. I knew my niece was going to have a boy because she took a home pregnancy test that was 80% correct and told her she was going to have a boy. Wrong! It was a girl and she lost it when she was 4 1/2 months pregnant. So sad. Anyway, this brings up painful memories for me and it was very expensive, but I don't think I could ever bring myself to make it, so I am giving it away. It's a big quilt. Not a baby blanket, at all.
And, I swear to you, I took it straight on, not sideways! Every once in a while, my cell phone camera will have a mind of its own and turn the picture sideways. Well, It's brown and blue, I think, and has bunnies appliqued along the top. It's called Bunny Hugs.

Okay, you can leave comments here or down below where I have photos of the other quilt kits I'm giving away. Remember, I usually get 3 people write in only and I would like to give these all away, so name the ones you like. If you like them all, say so. Because when Friday runs around and no one likes a few of these, I don't know what to do with them. I guess I could have another giveaway, but I'd rather not. If I found a giveaway and they said I could ask for all of them, and I wanted all of them, I'd ask for all of them, really! Because they said it was A-okay! And it is.

So there you have it. I might do a little more cleaning and run into another couple of kits and if I do, I post them and you can comment on them also. Christmas is coming and I'm in the spirit.

It use to be that I had one quilt I was working on and when that one was done, I'd go out and buy myself fabric and a pattern or a quilt kit. Only had one at a time. Then I started aquiring them and now I am so overwhelmed with them that I can't decide which quilt to do next, so I usually turn off the light and leave the room. Too much for me. I can't decide. I want to get back to having less. Less is more to me. I mean, I love having a stack of Kona solids and some fabric lines and some quilt kits, but this is ridiculous when there are quilters out here that could use some of these kits and they've just been sitting on my shelves for a long time. I have quilt guilt!!! It feels bad!!

So, help me feel good again! I gave a box of kits away to a gal and the day I did, I found out that I won a homemade table runner!!  What goes around comes around! I received it in the mail today. It is so darn cute! I will take a picture of it tomorrow after I iron it. It's 8 pm and I'm too tired to plug in the iron and take everything off the old ironing board.

But I'm hoping something nice happens to someone close to me by giving all this away. Someone close to me is having a big problem and I'm trying to make that "goes around comes around" go around to that person by doing this!

Good night!! Leave a comment, please!

  3. Just curious-why are you giving away all of your kits? I would love to win garden arbor or bunny hugs. I like the romantic nature of garden arbor and bunny hugs would be great for a kid.
    Thanks for the chance to win one of these awesome prizes!

  6. I don't know if you are willing to mail internationaly (in a case a win), but have to say that there are not many so generous people like you are. It is really very hard, almost impossible to choose anything from all the beauties you are giving away, but perheps this lovely Santa is so cute, and so is Summery House too.
    Thank you for opportunity to win and make someone very merry Christmas.

    1. I'm so so sorry but I don't do international shipping. I did that before and it cost me too much money. I am truly sorry.
