Little Quilts has been out there in the world for a few weeks now, and thank you to everyone for all the love it has been receiving!We thought it was time we threw it a little launch party, so here it goes.
(Thanks Amy I have shamelessly pinched your extremely cute pic.)
Owing to the fact that the Little Quilts journey began with Amy and I sending each other little quilts in the post, we thought that rather than ye olde blog touring around to hear what everyone has to say, we would have a little Swap of our own! So we got together some of our favourite quilty peeps to play along.
Each stop on the tour will have a copy of the book courtesy of Cico Books to give away, starting with Amy and I. To enter my giveaway you can leave a comment on this post telling me some of your favourite quilty peeps. Please leave a comment with information I can contact you with - if there are no contact details I will redraw. My contest is open until September 8 at 5pm Sydney time, and then Miss Pam Kitty's contest will open so don't despair if you don't win! There's always another chance.
If you just cant wait to win I have the book and some associated templates for sale on my website so there's always that option!
Now the peeps will be posting and chatting as they go along about what quilt they are making for their Mystery Someone, their colour choices, the pattern they picked and so on and so forth so make sure you check in and see what they're all up to! I've added everyone's Instagram tags to the blog post details below so you can have a peek at their IG feeds and see what they're doing there should you be so inclined.
And no i just have to decide which quilt to make for my secret squirrel partner!! Hmmm..... tempting to make one of mine because I already know how to make them all :D How about What a Star, I love that one...
Or this could be an opportinity to remake my favourite quilt, Honeycomb.
But it would be so much fun to make one of Amy's!! Hmmmm.... I just LOVE Coctail Shakers but I'm not sure if it's right for my partner....
Maybe Polka Dot Baskets is more their style? Who knows!
Here's a list of where to go and who to see. Have fun and don't forget to comment here to enter, and on Amy's blog too!
