March/April 2015 Quiltmaker! Give-Away!

20150203_080531
I am still unearthing myself out from under the huge stack of mail that has come in over the past couple weeks!

But this envelope I knew right away!

It’s the March/April 2015 issue of Quiltmaker Magazine – the issue that has my Twirl Around blocks for my Addicted to Scraps column!

I’ve been working on these blocks over the past couple of weeks – I have a plan for them!

And while there are things I can’t show online because they are going in as a future magazine project, or book project, or video project – THESE I CAN!!

 20150203_075941

My stack is growing!


I worked on these while at retreat at Quilt Villa this past week!

And now you can work on them too!

Each issue of Quiltmaker also includes a link to my Addicted to Scraps page on Quiltmaker.com

You can also access the page for each block by clicking the block title under the Addicted to Scraps tab at the top of the blog!  Clicking the title under the photo for the March/April Twirl Around block will take you HERE.

You will find sample layouts for quilts, or choose your own setting!  The Quiltmaker Staff chose this one:


Great big spaces, perfect for quilting designs!

I have my own plans for this quilt –and you won’t see it until it is done.  But nothing can stop you from stock piling blocks back in anticipation of a quilt I know you are going to want to make with me!  This way it’s a half-mystery and you are going to love the reveal!

20150203_080044

Pick up a copy of Quiltmaker and get started on your own Twirl Around blocks today!

I’m feeling in the mood for a Give-Away!  Leave me a comment below telling me what colors you would choose for your own set of blocks!

I’ll be drawing for THREE lucky winners by random number generator on Sunday Evening.

Small print: 

No, you can’t email your comment in, you can’t comment in the guest book, you can’t comment on facebook or instagram…it has to be HERE. On this post.  So I can use the random number generator to choose our lucky winners.  It’s only fair that way!
 
If you are a blogger or google user, PLEASE check your profile to make sure your email address is visible and I can reach you.  If there is no email address on your profile I have to choose someone else.  If you are commenting as anonymous you must leave your name and your email address so I can reach you.
 
When in doubt, just please leave your email address!  It’s that simple!
 
If you are reading us on an iphone or ipad after clicking a link in facebook you must open this page in a new browser or safari window before you can comment.  Your device still thinks you are in facebook even though you do not think you are.  If you still see the blue bar at the top of your screen…trust me. You are still in facebook!
 
Same goes for Blog-lovin.  Get OUT of blog-lovin and view our page directly. The URL is HERE.  You can’t always comment while reading in a blog reader service.  Make sure our address starts with http://quiltville.blogspot.com  No bloglovin in the address!

Good Luck Everyone!
 
I’m looking forward to Quilt-Cam at 9pm EST tonight!  I hope you will join me!  We missed it for all of January.  I was just GONE with no time to do it.
 
Make it an awesome Tuesday, everyone and I’ll see you tonight!

    I have always wanted a Christmas quilt, I think reds and those beautiful lime greens...those greens are the new Christmas green, I believe. Thanks Bonnie for all you do! kay.hord@att.net

  153. Yours is a very pretty color combination but I would probably use pink and blue. Those are colors that makes me feel good when I sew with them!
    Thanks for the chance to win!

  160. Coral and black with neutral backgrounds. I have been working with those colors for 4 years and have a ton of scraps to move out of the stash! (Every time I make a quilt intending for it to be mine... Someone claims it, which explains the 4 years of the same colors- I have a plan for my bedroom and I am determined to see it through!

  170. I would use bright yellow where you have pink, and blue where you have green, and my neutrals would lean a bit more white.

  175. I purchased some really cute patriotic pinwheels & poked them in the grass for the entertainment of the Grandbabies a couple of years ago. In honor of those pinwheel posies, transplanted many times by little hands, I think I'd dive into my big box of red white and blue prints!

  177. For years I would not have yellow fabric in my house. Buit has been creeping in, so I think yellow and blue will be my choice.

  182. I saw your blocks growing on Instagram, they are so beautiful. I never sew with pink, as my only girl doesn't like pink, neither do my 3 man, so hardly any pink scraps, or I would use pink and green. Maybe orange and green?

  186. Since I've just finished Grand Illusion and have lots of scraps leftover, plus extra 1/2 sq triangles I made by mistake in pink and white, I'll choose pink and white. Thanks Bonnie! You are too much fun! I subscribe to the magazine but would donate to my guild if I win. Thanks. Norma Holland
