The Mysterious McCalls Mystery! ((And Give-Away!))

Yesterday I emailed Diane at Quiltmaker Magazine letting them know that I still hadn’t received my copies of the July/Aug 2014 issue ---and my quilt is on the cover!

An email came from June saying:

“there was a mix-up at the printers and they sent McCall's issues to the Quiltmaker contributor list. My understanding is that they are correcting that, so let's wait a bit to see if you get the correct issues from them.”

AHA!  So THAT explains why I got those two random McCall’s Quilting issues that we gave away last week instead of my Quiltmaker issues!

But Never Fear – June said they would mail out TWO issues to two lucky winners if I wanted to go ahead and have a giveaway for them while they are gone on their Quiltmaker Cruise to Alaska!  ((Are you going? Are you excited!??!))

 

I’m drawing for TWO copies of the July/Aug issue!

You’ll find the pattern for Wanderlust inside!

And along with Wanderlust and the other great patterns, you will find my Addicted to Scraps column!

And I had to go to Quiltmaker.com to find out just WHAT block they are featuring in my column this issue!  

I send in a year’s worth of blocks and they get to decide which one is published when, so often it is a complete surprise to me which one they are featuring.  This month it is Outside In!

Turn little blocks into a table runner!

The Outside In blocks are made from 2.5” squares and finish at just over 4”, and the magazine shows you how easy it is with a cool little trick, so you’ll want to get it.  

Even though the blocks may finish at an odd size, they start with a size of square that we all have readily available on hand so the variety you need is all right there….this makes a GREAT leader & Ender project!

Visit my Addicted to Scraps tab at the top of the blog for more info on this project.

I will be drawing for our Lucky winners from Portland Oregon on the evening of June 11th.

You know the drill, leave your comment in the comments section of the blog only, not in email, not in the guestbook, not on facebook, etc – I need to use the random number generator for drawing, and if your comment doesn’t have a number, you can’t be drawn.

You can’t comment by clicking a link in facebook or some blog reader services – you need top open the link in a new browser or safari window first.  If you still see the blue facebook bar at the top of your mobile device, you are NOT out of facebook and commenting won’t work with your facebook id. 

Better yet, put down the phone and come to a REAL computer to enter, it’s just easier!

If you are commenting as anonymous or if your email address is not visible in your profile, you must leave your name and email address so I can contact you.  If I can’t contact you, I’ll have to draw someone else, so don’t forget!

Good Luck, everyone!

PIECE from Randy and me in Sunriver, Oregon!

And this is how I’ll be spending my day ---sewing up a storm!  BLISS!
