Pretty Giveaway

I'm going to launch this beautiful summer weekend with a giveaway. 

Just because. 

And with something really pretty too.

I found just the thing over at Fat Quarter Shop and they are very kindly letting me give one of these away to one of you ...

This oh-so-pretty "Twice the Charm" fabric roll of Robyn Pandolph's Love and Liberty collection includes 22 - 5 1/2" x 21" pieces ... plenty enough to make something fresh, summery and ... pretty!

If you'd like a chance to win, just leave me a comment telling me what your summer sewing project is.  If you don't have anything on the go you can mention either the last thing you finished or what is on the top of your crafting to-do list.  Comments close Tuesday July 16 and the winner will be announced Wednesday 17th.

Good luck and have a lovely weekend!

Update:  Comments closed.

I have been working on a lone star quilt and the dr who stich a long at fandom in stiches. I live is seattle and we are having a wonderful summer.

Over 4th of July weekend my 5 yr old grandson said that he needed a new "cold" quilt because the one he has now his toes are peeking out. (crib size) So I started doing a jelly roll race quilt with the help of you tube and my husband. I had enough of Alphabet Soup from South Seas to use for it so now my stash could be considered "low". ha ha! This pretty fabric would be just the thing to make my remaining stash "not so lonely". I do not have a blog but have included my email address if that is okay. Thanks

[Lori Ginsberg]

July and August are birthday months for me, so I have been hooked on making needlebooks. They are so fun and I am happy I have a few to make. I love the fabric you are giving away! Just my style :)

[Heidi]

I'm almost done with four holiday table toppers!! It's a good think that they're almost done because they're a gift for a wedding next weekend!

[Ashton Bynum]

I'm finishing up a baby quilt for a friend and about to start another! I have so many sweet friends that are getting pregnant, so lot's of baby quilts in store for this summer.

Love looking at your lovelies! I have three things going on right now. I'm doing some on each every day. Not my usual technique, but I'm trying to mix in things I REALLY like doing with things that I SHOULD be doing.

I'm FMG in QAYG style some blocks from Block Lotto. I'm making a Circle of Squares quilt, lots of white and brights. Maybe that seems dated to some but I love using white and my leftovers and leftovers from friends and the white ties them all together nicely. These two projects are ones I could spend hours on each day,

And I'm finishing my Row A Long quilt. I love the block patterns that Lori Holt provided. I'm not so happy with my workmanship. This is probably the least flat quilt top I've ever made. It would be so easy to just let it go to the UFO pile!

Cheers!

[Tanyia]

This is my first time at your blog, I am glad I found it, thanks for the chance. My project right now is actually a table topper for Christmas lol

[Quilting Tangent]

I'm trying to finish my first quilt. Right now working out where to baste it. It is queen to king size. Looks like my Dining Room floor will have to do. Then what design to sew it with.

[Marianne Gallatin]

Love the fabric in the giveaway! It looks like something that you would pick out for yourself for a project! I'm working on a few UFOs', plus a few items of baby clothing for my three grandchildren! Thank you for the opportunity to participate in this giveaway! (I start my day with checking out your blog!)

[Glynette]

You are correct---the fabric is oh-so-pretty!!!!!
Hoping to finish a quilt for my daughter & her first home!

[Margaret]

Gorgeous, lovely fabric!! My main sewing project this summer is creating a signature quilt for an aunt and uncle. We are having a family reunion next month honoring their 60th anniversary, so I am asking all the relatives to write a note to them, which I am putting into a quilt. I hope they love it.

[Ann]

My summer project is to finish up a baby quilt for my niece. After that catch up on my block of the months. Thanks for the giveaway.

[Anita]

I don't get to sew much during the summer, my 9 daughter being home slows things down. Currently I'm trying to finish the binding on a quilt that I'll hang in my sewing room.

I'm finishing up some projects this summer - my Bee In My Bonnet row along, my Fat Quarter Shop BOM, and my scrappy trip made out of Paris Flea Market and all of my 3 Sisters scraps. Quite the list! I would love to start a new project with that yummy fabric! Thanks!

[mamamousie]

This summer my top priority project is to finish my hand pieced, full-size bed quilt. I WILL finish this, even if I have to re-watch every BBC costume drama on Amazon ( oh, the hardship!). This fabric would be a perfect addition to my quilt as it is all soft summery florals. After that--either a low volume hexagon or a hand pieced low volume Farmer's Wife.

[Lily]

What a great fabric selection, thank you very much for this give-away!
I'm currently working on a green linen summer dress :-) looking forward to get it done!

[Jeanice Shelley]

Hi! I am currently in the process of making a table runner for our kitchen table using a charm pack from the "Happy-Go-Lucky" fabric line by Moda. I just completed a little vinyl pouch from a tutorial I foind on "Crazy Mom Quilts". I am very new to quilting and even stopped sewing for years due to raising 5 adorable kids and working full time :) Now that all of those adorable kids have their own families, I am taking up sewing again and loving it! Your blog is one of my FAVORITES! I love the beautiful fabrics you choose and all your designs! Someday, I want to make that little hexie purse you designed. Have a wonderful weekend! Thanks again for such a lovely, emjoyable and helpful blog!

[Cheryl]

Working on quilts for all beds at our cabin. I think I took on too much!

Love the cute fabric. Thank you for a chance to win.

[Robyn]

I just started a ST. Louis 16 patch the other day. I've been seeing them pop up all over Instagram so I thought it would be a nice quick quilt to sew up! Love your blog!!

[Renee]

What a lovely bundle of fabric! I am hoping to complete a king size postage stamp quilt that I've been dragging my feet in doing. It's all in cottage/shabby colors and speaks of summer to me.

[Dora Dis]

I am currently working on "The Star of India", pattern by The Quilted Fish, and then I am going to start on "Starwberry Social" from the Pattern Basket. It has been raining a lot in my part of the world this summer, so I plenty of time is spent inside !
Greetings from Reykjavik, Iceland,

[Anne Beier]

I have 2 king size quilts and 2 single bed quilts in progress. And a baby quilt. Busy!! Thanks for the opportunity for a give-a-way.

[Robbin]

I just this week pieced a really pretty lap sized and table runner for my family room. I used Seascapes fabric and the colors just scream summer beach house. If I can't make it to the beach I can at least create an atmosphere! Love Robyn Pandolph by the way! Thanks for the inspiration.

[Jan S]

I'm currently working through Edyta Sitar's Seasonal Silhouettes and looking for a new project that challenges me with applique. I've done June, July and almost through with August. Hope to finish that this weekend.
Thanks for the chance to win that pretty fabric!

[Mary d]

I am still in the process of making my first quilt.i started the hand sewn centre,with the dresden plate,with embroidery, after seeing the beautiful one that you done,. Then I decided to add a panel of hexagons,(again I was inspired by your work) i am so glad that I found your blog.and I would love the chance of winning those fat quarters. I love the combination

[Lisa Botts]

I'm working on a cowboy quilt for a little boy's October birthday and making aprons for all the girls, big and small alike, for Christmas. (14 in all!)

[Bunny]

One of the projects I'm working on is a baby quilt for a new grandson expected to arrive in October. The hardest part is choosing the pattern--there are so many options!

[Jana]

I would love to win some pretty fabric. I just finished making Miss Maggie Rabbit from Posy Gets Cozy. Now I'm on to finish 12 cloth diaper covers.

[Kathy J]

We have just moved so my main project is getting unpacked! But once I find my sewing machine I have a sweet quilt for my 3 year old daughter that I will be working on again. Just borders to go...
Thanks for the chance to win!

[Hildy]

Oh, yummy giveaway! We both know there're way too many thigs on my summer sewing list. You wanna have some examples? Okay, here you go: quilt-along from Camille's Simple Retro quilt (I'm pretty good at that ... so far;-), July Schnibble, Green Tea and Sweet Beans quilt (not started yet!), actually quilt a few quilttops (and NOT collect them in a evergrowing pile), make a flower wallet for my mum's birthday in august (still time, right?), and so on and so on. I think my summer need to be a year long.
Have a wonderful weekened, Hildy

[Tami]

Oh my, the fabric giveaway is so pretty.....I would love to be making that into a quilt. It has been SO hot here in Nevada that I have not been quilting lately but the next thing on my list is to make my girlfriend (who is turning 50) a quilt. I made one for her when she turned 40 also!
Have a wonderful weekend.....

[ange @heartofcharnwood]

Oh, those are beautiful! I have lots of current sewing projects, from a Weekender bag, to 2 baby quilts for little girls due to friends in August, eek! :o)

[Jane Cisneros]

I have a list -- growing longer by the minute -- of gifts to make but it seems I have been primarily working on aprons so far this summer. I am drafting a pattern for a smock-style apron inspired by my great-grandmother. And I have a quilt at the free motion stage that I have been stalling on completing ... fear of FMQ!

[Linda]

I am working on Carpenter's Square table toppers. On my third one---just love this pattern. Thanks for the chance to win this beautiful fabric.

[Kim]

Love love the fabric . I have been making 3 baby quilts and hand quilting them for 3 of my children who are expecting!

[Cheryl]

This summer I'm hoping to finish my second grandson's quilt and cut the fabric for my oldest granddaughter's quilt. I'm also hoping to make a handful of pretty needle books, and these fabrics would be lovely for that purpose (and a hundred more that come to mind!) Thanks for the giveaway!

[Esther F.]

Project 1: get both (!) my sewing machines repaired. They broke down yesterday ( yes, really!!!) when I was actually in a hurry to finish two pillows.
Project 2: finish two pillows ! ;-)
Project 3: finish more FMQ on "Growing Blocks" quilt
Project 4: bind " Cloud Nine" quilt
And so on and so on and so on......
Busy this summer! :-)

[Widya Sari]

I am going to sew alot of pouches and totes, start with across the pond pouch from your tutorials... thanks alot Kristyne

[Barbara]

Ohhh! This fabric is sooo pretty! I`m dedicating my summer to finishing up projects - binding, etc. and learning new skills - English Paper Piecing and hand quilting!

[Anita]

I have several summer sewing projects:
I am making two Swoon pillows and a quilt for a wedding. My travel project is hexagons that will be made into a table runner. I am also trying do get some progress on a Sue Daley table runner, and I will do some hand sewing on the July block of the 2013 Aurifil Designer of the Month.
In addition to all of that, I also joined a sewing project while on vacation in the US: I have made a Tornado Disaster Relief Quilt for the victims of the Oklahoma tornadoes in May. The quilt top came together in one day, it is now basted, and hopefully it will be quilted this weekend.

[Pam Register]

I have been working on Farmer's Wife Sampler blocks as well as Bee in My Bonnet Row-Along. I am having so much fun with both of these. Yesterday I completed a Schnibbles quilt top as well. My Daughter, Tanya has been an inspiration to me. She teaches and uses the Summertime for quilting, and has so many projects that she does, and I want to try to do some of the same projects too! I love the new happy fabrics out. We live in a small town and the quilters here as well as our quilt shop do little to inspire me, so I love these quilting blogs for additional inspiration!

[Cindy]

Thanks for the chance to win that beautiful fabric. I'm working on an embroidered baby quilt. Now I just have to get a new grandbaby:)

[Beth Metcalf]

My summer project is my first quilting project ever! I am paper piecing a diamond quilt. I figure that is the best way to learn to quilt...by taking piece by piece and stitch by stitch.

[Tammy mc]

I love these colors! I follow your blog and your do such GREAT work. I am making quilts my grandsons. I also want to start the daisy chain sampler. Yours is beautiful.

[Jenny]

lots of things i want to sew this summer...must get cracking on the picnic blanket before its too late...and my son needs a quilt to start kindergarten with!! thanks for a chance, these fabrics are amazing
