It has been so fun to see pieces of my quilts gracing the covers of recent quilt magazines. Usually the quilt is in a pile with other quilts and you can see just a small section of my quilt. But this month- I am the cover quilt! Woo hoo!
I love this quilt. The fabrics I used were from the line Hazel by Allison Harris of Cluck Cluck Sew for Windham Fabrics. I wanted to use the fabrics but at first, I could not get them. But then a quilting miracle occurred and I had a FQ of most of the line. So this quilt will work with FQs!
It is a fun, quick quilt and best of all, you could make it bigger or small very easily.
I was lucky enough to get a couple of extra magazines this month, so I am going to share with you. If you would like a chance to win a copy of the magazine, leave a comment below.
Maybe you could tell me if you want to make the quilt using theses fabrics (McCalls has kits!) or if you have a pile of FQs that you have been saving that might be perfect for this.
Or just leave any old comment you want.
For a second chance to win, leave a second comment if you already get my newsletter or if you signed up for my newsletter. You have to leave a second comment to get the extra chance!
I will pull 2 names on Sunday Jan 3rd after 9pm my time.
Giveaway is now closed- thank you to all who entered!
Please be sure I can reach you- I will be emailing you if you win and twice lately the winners have not gotten back to me so I had to pull new names. I am not sure if my email goes into spam, but check back here on the blog to make sure you know if you are the winner. I will now give winners 7 days to respond and then I will pull a new name.
I hope you have a safe and happy New Year; thank you for visiting with me this year. I am truly grateful for all of you who pop over here and spend a little time with me.
OH- and tomorrow on Jan 1 (at least I think it is posting tomorrow!), come back because I am the guest designer for Susan Emory’s Little Lovely free mini quilt series! A free mini quilt pattern, a free mini, MINI extra pattern and a giveaway on that post as well! What a great way to say HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
happy quilting,
Kate

Thank you for a chance to win. Your quilt looks great on the cover of the magazine. I would use fabric that I own to make the quilt in an attempt to reduce my stash.
I love your choice of fabric colors, but my husband thinks I need to use some of my stash.

A great quilt to start the year with. Thanks.

Love the colors in this quilt. I think that I would use fat quarters fro my stash. I need to start using them. I just seem to add to my stash too often.
I already get your newsletter and enjoy reading.
Congrats on your publication. Love the colours, but I’d use fabric from my “collection”.
Hi Kate! I wanted to get a kit from McCalls of your cover quilt/SpringForth & couldn’t locate the kit on their website? Help!☺️ Thanks!!
No kits for me! I have a huge stash and this is a year for using what I have. I think this would be really pretty in reds, yellows, and blues, and I have a ton of those.
I am signed up for you newsletter.
Nice quilt to use some stash! Definitely on the to do list.
Kate: I signed up for your newsletter! I will plan to make a baby quilt or maybe a couple of them in the SpringForth colors! So bright & cheery!!? Thanks for sharing your talent!
I love the fresh, bright-‘ready for Spring’ colors on your cover SpringForth quilt!!
Beautiful colors. I would enjoy making this quilt. My goal this year is to learn to quilt!
Refreshing and gorgeous quilt with my favorite background white. I am a beginner quilter and I am willing to give it a try. I have enjoyed your newsletter. Thanks
This is a nice pattern to use up scraps. We all need scrap buster patterns every once in a while.
I receive your newsletter and read every one!
Your post really caught my eye when you mentioned “Hazel” as that was my dear mom’s name. She always said she’d never have any grandchildren named after her since it was such an old, ugly (in her words) name. I am happy there is a fabric collection named with Hazel! I would use a selection of my current fat quarters to make this quilt. I think it would look great as a baby quilt!
I’d like to make this quilt using these fabrics — love it! Congrats!
I already get your newsletter — love it!
Lovely not lowly!!!!
Really lowly quilt. Would love to try it.
I get your newsletter.
I’m sure I have enough fabric for this quilt. Love that it’s so cheerful.
Heard it through the newsletter, twice as nice.
I receive your emails…thank you for the chance to win a copy of the magazine.
Nice way to start 2016.
Congratulations on getting your quilt published on the cover of the magazine. I love the colors you used, however I have a quite a few fabrics that I have been gathering for quilts for my granddaughters and I think they will be lovely used for your quilt pattern.
Happy New Year! I love the magazine and congrats on the cover!
This would be a fantastic quilt for my collection of fat quarters! Congratulations on being a cover girl!
I need some new inspirations for baby quilts with a new granddaughter on the way mid January!
I do get your emails-thanks for the chance to win!
Love your “Cover Girl”-I have a set of Oh Clementine fat quarters that would be fabulous in this pattern.
Lovely quick pattern that would be great for a Project Linus quilt. I have fabric donated to me by a friend at Fabric Traditions, and this would work great.
Best of the new year to you. I look forward to your 2016 work.
HI, I’D LOVE TO MAKE ONE LIKE YOURS! THANKS FOR SHARING!
