Count Down to Christmas with Quiltmaker! ((Give-Away!))

The other day I was asked by my friend Diane Harris at Quiltmaker Magazine if they could do a little write up and shout out on their blog, Quilty Pleasures, and include me in it.

Sure!  Great!  Let’s do it!

And then yesterday I get another email from Diane asking if she could pull picutres and stuff from my blog to use, because what she was writing for today wasn’t just going to INCLUDE me – but be ABOUT me ---oh wow!  AND --- they are having a Give-Away!

So head on over to Quiltmaker and find out what’s going over there by clicking HERE!

They are giving away TWO COPIES of String Fling!

And to deepen the deal, I’m doing a little Give-Away here myself --

quiltmaker 050


Leave me a comment below and I’ll draw one lucky winner for Quiltmaker Magazine’s Jan/Feb 2013 issue, a Summer Breeze charm pack by Moda, and one of my new Sewing Machine Seam Guides!

This is the issue that includes my "Ceiling Fan" blocks in my Addicted to Scraps column!

Winner will be drawn Sunday, and announced on Sunday afternoon’s Quilt-Cam which will start at 2pm Eastern.

Speaking of Quilt-Cam ---I’m feeling pretty chipper and back to normal today, so how about we gather to sew at 9pm Eastern tonight?

And while I’m at it…HOLY MOLY!  You have to see all the progress people have shared in our Link-Up from Monday – and the links keep coming in!  Click HERE to view them.  I’m so proud of all of you!  We are at 197 participants as I post this.  Remember--- Monday's link up closes at 11:59pm Eastern TONIGHT because Part 5 of Easy Street goes live TOMORROW!

And speaking of proud….I’ve always been proud of my son Jason, but never MORE PROUD of him --- last night he let us know that he passed all his finals and is graduating with his associates degree in application programming.  Way to go, Son!  We love you so much!

I have so much to be thankful for…..my heart can’t contain it all!

Happy Thursday, Everyone!

It does sound like you have a lot to celebrate... as do we all. A clean bill of health, achievements by your son, a newly refurbished sewing studio. What more could a gal want?

  24. Bonnie, You inspire me every day. I got out my old sewing machine after watching quilt-cam the other night. I had forgotten how nice and smooth it sews. I put my computer machine away and now I only want to use my old trusty work-horse Janome.
    Congrats to your son.

  37. Bonnie, I love your energy and love for scrappy quilts. When you announce Quiltcam I can't wait to watch. It's like having one of my quilt buddies sewing with me. Thanks for the flying geese instructions from your antique quilt of which I am working on right now plus Easy Street. It's all your fault that I am becoming addicted to scraps. LOL Throughout the years I have paid for those scraps, so why not use them. Thanks Bonnie. I entered the drawing at Quiltmaker and would love to have the book and seam maker ruler.

    ReplyDelete
  38. I'll be there at QuiltCam with you tonight. Finishing up Holiday gifts. I've been using Step 1 of Easy Street as my leaders and enders for my projects.

  51. So glad you are back in the swing of things and looking forward to Quilt Cam tonight! Will have to miss Sunday's edition as I have to work. Thankful everything came out okay on your exam and Jason passed all his exams, also. Great Christmas presents! Waiting for Step 5 on Easy Street-but won't be able to work on it until Christmas day as I have a 4 day weekend of working (gotta get what I can when I can!) Thanks for the give-away-one of these days I am making a quilt from all the Addicted to Scraps blocks!

  53. I really look forward to Sundays when you do your quiltcam because I can pick it up here in England at 7pm, although I do catch you occasionally if I'm having a sleepless night. You have taught this newbie quilter an awful lot with your chatter, so many thanks for that. I haven't joined in with Easy Street, but am following everyone's progress, because, being new, I don't have a stash to draw from, but I'm avidly saving all my scdraps to make a really scrappy quilt one day.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Lots of great news for the Hunter clan. Congrats to all! Thanks for the giveaway.

  147. Bonnie so glad to hear you are feeling better from your sniffles I was a bit worried your colonoscopy would be delayed.
    Of course I'd like to be the comment you choose to win your give away but not holding my breath.
    You must be Bonnie Bunny to get done all that you do ....it seems you are so hop to it or maybe you have learned how to wiggle your nose to get things done
    I am in the San Francisco bay area of calif and we are very lucky to have many wonderful quilters..... but we would love to have you come out here to teach or lecture I guess I'll have to join our guild to ask them to invite you ... Having only been an attendee I don't know how a group gets a special person to show their ways of doing things
    Thank you and I'll try to see you on the quilt cam to see what your current project is
    Glad you feel able to do it already

  170. Bonnie,

    Thank you for teaching me so much! YOU are the quilter who has influenced me the most.

    As soon as I saw the picture of your give-away, I thought of a song. Do you remember the Seals and Croft song, "Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind." I love those lyrics. :-) Laura
