Precut Quilt Patterns

The Book is in the House! And a giveaway.

April 2, 2015July 28, 2020 50 comments

quilt book, precut book, smash your precut stash

So exciting! Our book is here: Smash Your Precut Stash! Elizabeth and I received our advance copies this week. We are authors.

Our publisher also sent us flowers- isn’t that sweet?

 

smash your precut stash, quilt book

 

 

 

April is both Elizabeth’s and my birthday month. What a great birthday present! You will notice I said birthday month- I think a month of celebrating is in order!

We have a bunch of great giveaways scheduled for this month, including a book blog hop at the end of the month.

Party time!

McCalls Quilting magazine

So, to get the party started, today I have 2 copies of the newest McCall’s Quilting magazine to give away.

 

The magazine will be out on newsstands next week.

 

 

 

Asian quilt, blue quilt, Imperial Garden fabric
Moonlit Reflections

My quilt, Moonlit Reflections, is in the magazine. The quilt uses fabric from a Timeless Treasures collection called Imperial Garden. The fabric is just  gorgeous and lovely to work with.

 

 

 

 

To enter for a chance to win one of 2 magazines, leave a comment. Any old comment will do! Extra entries for peeps who sign up or already receive the newsletter- just leave a second comment telling me you are signed up.

I will pull a name on Sunday night- sometime after 9pm my time (Colorado time!). Giveaway is closed!

Have a lovely weekend- for many, it is a holiday weekend, so if it is for you, Happy Easter or Passover.

happy quilting,

Kate

p.s. If you are interested in ordering an autographed copy of the book, we are working on a preorder button for the website. The book won’t be available until sometime in May- it was supposed to be April, but it is delayed in the shipping process. We were lucky to get our copy!

p.p.s. If you really love Moonlit Reflections, McCall’s Quilting has kits on their website. Click here and then go to quilt kits.
