Quilt Market - Giveaway
November 10, 2011 This was me at the airport waiting for the scale to tell me how much my suitcase weighed, "Oh pleeeeeease, please please please PLEASE be under 50 lbs!" Whew! Just barely made it. :)
I'm really happy with all the pretty fabric I brought home. My creative wheels are turning and I'm dying to start cutting & sewing.
"La Petite Mercerie" by Lecien - LOVE notion prints!
"Woodland" by Lecien. So adorable. I know I'll be making lots of gifts for my daughters' friends as birthday gifts & such.
Died and went to heaven with Lecien's "Durham Anew" line.
Moda's "California Girls". Couldn't resist those blues!
So yummy "Athill" by Moda
But my absolute favorite find was, of course, Yoko Saito's book. I'm considering putting it in a safety deposit box. ;)
Ok. Now for some fun for you.
I met one of the nicest people on the planet at Quilt Market - Anne Sutton of Bunny Hill Designs.
And she generously sent me home with some goodies to give away here to a few lovely Pretty by Hand readers. (Thank you Anne!) Not one, not two, but SIX patterns for her adorable little soft creatures.
1. Allie the Scottie Dog
2. Baby Bear
3. Henrietta the Squirrel
4. Lollipop the Lamb
5. Scooter Pie the Cat
6. Snickerdoodles the Bunny
7. AND an ACTUAL finished Henrietta made from Anne's fabric.
(And the limbs are hinged so they move!)
But wait.
There's MORE!
Just to sweeten the deal, I'm sure I can find a pretty fat quarter - or two - from my stash to go with each prize. (Need to make room for all the aforementioned bundles ...)
So. If you would like to enter this giveaway to win ONE of these 6 patterns + FQs or the sweet squirrel + FQs (so 7 winners in total), please go to Anne's shop, take a look at her patterns, come back here and leave a comment telling me which of her designs is your favorite.
Winners will be selected at random. The first name drawn will win the Allie pattern & a FQ, winner #2 will receive the Baby Bear pattern & a FQ, etc. following the list above.
Comments will close Sunday Nov 13th at 6:00 pm PST (West coast of North America). I will announce the winners on Monday Nov 14th. Please be sure to leave me your email (only I can read it) so I can reach you if you win.
Good luck everyone! :)

I jumped over here from Anne's blog. thanks for the chance to win one of her great patterns. I'm now a follower.
I love Autumn House. I am hoping to finish it someday! Thanks
My favorite pattern is "The Night Before Christmas". So glad Anne posted about your site. Thanks.
There are so many of Anne's patterns that I like, but if I had to choose one, it would be the bitty squirrel pincushion. I've been going a little pincushion crazy lately, and her entire line of bitty pincushions are so adorable. Thank you for the giveaway opportunity!
I love the little scottie dog pattern.
All of Anne's patterns are so lovely - I really love the Carrie Me Bag. Oh, your Market goodies are to die for. Thanks for this.
Oh my! It is hard to decide...since my nickname is Lamb you would think my favorite would be the itty-bitty lamb...However, I simply adore bunnies. So I have to say my most favorite pattern is Rabbits Prefer Chocolate. I must have a bite or two of chocolate while stiching and I am so in love with bunnies.
Thanks!

Kristyne!

I love Cape Cod Baby since I am having a baby boy March 2012.
This is really tough because I love it all!!!! But especially the pattern- B is for Baby!! So sweet and love the colors. Thanks for the chance to win!
It is so hard to choose...."uptown baby" is one of my favorites. Thank you for having this giveaway.
Our sewing group is planning on meeting once a month starting in January to work on A Vintage Christmas, although her new snowman pattern has me swaying!
Oh Boy! You certainly did pick up some beautiful fabrics.
I follow Anne's blog and have done several of her patterns. I love her style.
I went to her web site and saw a new pattern that I really like and it is the Peach On Earth Angel pillow. So sweet.
thanks for the giveaway.
So hard to choose. NOrmally I would choose kitties, but "Hoo's my Baby?" wins this time - so cute!!
I have done all of her free blocks and others of course. But my favorite is Snowbound. Because I collect snowmen. I did it in Redwork.Thank you so much for giving me a chance to win something.
I love Bunny Hill patterns and her blog...I have made most of the animals for my grandson, and I would love to make the squirrel...my favortie pattern is the scottie dog quilt wall hanging....
What's not to like with Anne Sutton designs and fabric. This is a hard choice. First choice is Merry Merry Snowmen since I am partial to them. Henrietta (in our back yard trying to get to the bird seed) fun to watch. Love the rabbits, dogs, cats and owls. Tiny Town is waiting in the wings to be built :)
Thank you for the Give-Away and for your lovely fabric and patterns-Lions and Tigers and Bears, Oh My! Love it.
I have tons of Bunny Hill patterns, but I need to get a copy of the new snowman pattern next--her designs are so charming!

LOVE, LOVE snowmen! It's a toss up between the celebration wool applique pillow or Merry Merry Snowmen. Decisions, decisions! Om my goodness, just too cute and I cant wait to start one of them for next year!
I have been a fan of Ann's for a long time and have several of her patterns in my line-up. Rabbit's Prefer Chocolate is probably my favorite. As for your haul from Houston, lucky you. You did some great selecting, I love them all.
I love Anne sutton...I've been following her for a long time...love her postcards rd cuties..summer! But I have a grandson on the way and would love to make one of her baby quilts for him! Her fabrics are so sweet. Thanks for the giveaway! Karen
I love Bunny Hill designs, and my favorite pattern is "Tiny Town." Thank you for doing a great give-away!
How do you pick a favorite "Bunny Hill' pattern ~ They are all wonderful ~ and I'm not just saying that. OK, here goes, "Allie the Scottie Dog" . Allie is a pincushion on my sewing table (and on my Mother's), she is also colored, cut out and hung in my sewing room (courtesy of Aly and Maddy); she is several times on my Christmas tree (and when she isn't , she is my clear glass candy jar, she's everywhere and she is adoreable ~ all of them. She is a fun and simple project for my little granddaughters and me. Love her! (Thanks Anne). Henrietta is also "too cute" ~ love the bow.
Your fabrics are wonderful, I'm anxious to see how you use them! I love the Merry Merry Snowmen pattern, I'm trying to decide if I can make the commitment to finishing it...it sure is pretty. Thank you for the contest. BTW, I really enjoy your blog.
So glad you met Anne, she is the best!
I just discovered your blog via Bunny Hill and I'm already a fan! My favorite Bunny Hill design is "Bunnies Love Chocolate". I made it for my friends baby and I still love it! Thanks for the giveaway.
Oh, so hard to narrow it down to a single favorite! I think I'll have to go with "Tiny Town". All the little buildings and cars... It's adorable! Thanks for the chance to win! :o)
Oh, this one is so adorable!
My favorite pattern from Anne Suton is: Henrietta Whiskers.
I do love the story behind it.
Would be so nice to win one of the give-aways.
Bye for now,
Els Lunenberg
What a darling site you have - I think I need to check it often, now that I have found it. I also love Bunny Hill designs and have made some of her patterns. I think my favorite at this time if Autumn Houses. It has been hanging in my house for a year and it just brightens everything. Keep up the good work and best wishes on your business.
I have been a long time follower of Bunny Hill and so happy that she has sent us to your blog site. It is truly lovely...I will be back for another visit. Thanks for the drawing.
Merry Merry Snowmen or Bitty Owl can't decide, I actually love them all!
I love the redwork embroidery in the Rabbits Prefer Embroidery pattern. I also love your designs. Thanks for sharing your creativity with the world.
Blessings!

My favorite is Dolley's Garden. The Durham Anew is beautiful! Love your blog! Thanks for the chance to win a giveaway!
Love the Snowball Pillow pattern - and really enjoy your creative blog. Thank You!
Thank you for the sweet giveaway. I love all of Ann's designs, fabric and patterns, but my favorite one is Snowbound. I did mine along with her and it turned out so cute. I love the fabric you brought back from market, can't wait for it to hit the stores.
My all time favorite is Rabbits Prefer Chocolate, but this may be because it was the first pattern of hers that I bought. I like so many others - it really depends on what day you ask me! (PS - I am so jealous of your Lecien notions fabric - I love notions fabric!!)
What wonderful gifts...I love the Merry Merry Snowman pattern. Thanks for the giveaways!
You have a beautiful website, I'm so glad Anne wrote about it. I like the Arnie pattern, I love cats.
I have had Rabbits Prefer Chocolate in 'my basket' more than once, then chicken out...so I would have to pick this one. That being said I would love to win one of the animal patterns especially the bear or bunny...one of my BFF's who is my age..and that is old, just found out she is prego with her first child....I am so excited for her and can't wait to start sewing some foo foo fun things for the baby!

My favorite Bunny Hill pattern has always been "Le Jardin" - but I love "Tiny Town" as well . . . thank you for the opportunity to enter!
I have loved Anne's work for a long time! My very favorite quilt pattern of all time is hers. I love Le Jardin. My husband was out of work for two years so the pattern wasn't in my budget so I admired from afar. Until the last Southern California quilters run that is. My husband finally had a job and I could get the pattern of my dreams! Coincidentally I also picked up two of her other patterns on the run as well! Thank you so much for the great giveaway.
I love the Jelly Bags pattern. You can never have enough bags! Thanks for the giveaway.
My favourite pattern from Anne is "Autumn House' because I'm crazy for crows! Thanks a lot for this giveaway!
Love your blog! But really, how can you have just one favorite from Anne Sutton. Jane
I love love loooooove Snickerdoodles. My daughter and I had a pet bunny "Nice" ie; pet the bunny nice, be nice to the bunny... Nice as since passed on but we still miss her. since we do not own a home any longer we cant have another live bunny, but she would love to have a Snickerdoodles.
I love the Sugar & Spice pattern. I'm having a baby in May (fingers crossed for a girl) and this would be so adorable to make for "her". Thank you for this giveaway!
I LOVE the new Pumpkin Pie quilt! Well, all the pretty fabric runs a close second! Thanks for sharing all the photos!
You must feel so happy with so much beautiful fabric to play with! Thank you for this wonderful giveaway; my favorite is the Baby Bear. Thanks for the chance!
Love Merry Merry Snowman and would love to win anyone of the 7 prizes but especially the squirrel.
