A Little Giveaway

I'm so excited to have so many visitors.  I feel like the song "if I knew you were comin', I'da baked a cake".  Well, no cakes, but how about a kit for the pattern Sue made for Yellow Bird Art?  In fact, three kits, including Sue's pattern "Yellow Bird Needle and Pin Keeper", the cotton and hand-dyed wool fabrics (I dye wool from time to time), the lining and batting, and the embellishments.  While I don't have the wonderful heshi beads that Sue does, I've substituted some glam vintage sequins I got from Tinsel Trading.  If you'd like the heshi beads, you can purchase them from Sue.


Here's how you can enter to win one of the three kits ~ each of these will count as one entry - so the more you do, the more entries you will have.  BE SURE to let me know how many of these you're doing in your comment so that I can enter you in the drawing the correct number of times!  *Include your blog addy in your comment so we can all come visit you!

  • Leave a blog comment about what you want to find in a quilting blog.  I want this blog to be a place you want to visit!
  • Make a Facebook comment with a link to Summer Kitchen Quilts.
  • Post about the giveaway on your blog with a link back to Summer Kitchen Quilts.
Enter until midnight on Monday, January 23, 2012!  I'll use a random number generator (any suggestions as to which to use?) to select the 3 winners and will announce them on Tuesday morning. 

Be sure to stop back this week!  On Friday, I'll be introducing my first pattern ~ a quick and easy little tote bag.  It's simple enough for a young seamstress (I had an 11yr old in a class) to successfully sew, and fast enough for you to whip the totes out for gifts in about an hour.  I'll have a short tutorial and a kit to give away!

If you're looking for the post I wrote about Sue, it's a post down!  Please consider following Summer Kitchen Quilts.  You'll learn about the design process from finding inspiration to drafting patterns to marketing!   A little bit of daily life will get thrown in and hopefully you'll learn a bit, have a laugh or two, and meet other interesting women.

Blessings ~ Angela

P.S.  I'll ship overseas!
