Project Simplify - Giveaway
Look what accidentally happened to the leftovers!
How about a giveaway to celebrate a successful first Chapter? My helper & I would love to find a good home for this little package. Just leave me a comment saying ... well ... anything nice, and you'll be entered to win.
This giveaway includes:
- fabric requirements - precut by yours truly - to make the same quilt top I made with one little change: the background fabric is red paint spatters instead of the multi-colored flowers (but still from the same fabric collection)
- extra yardage (red checkers) in case you'd prefer to make regular binding instead of the raw-edge
- a little label - also from the same collection - that says "Memories are made of this"
It does NOT include:
- the pattern (you need the super awesome book!)
- backing
- batting
- thread
(My home is smoke/pet free ... unless you consider dust bunnies pets ... then I have a few.)
Comments will close 9:00 pm EST (North America) on Sunday, April 10th and I'll announce the winner Monday morning on the 11th.
(I'm very excited about this - my first giveaway. But also kinda nervous. If no one enters, I'll give the prize to a local guild so they can make up the quilt and donate it to a charity of their choice.)

I love your blog!! You have inspired me to clean out my sewing room. Since you started your project, I finished up 2 of my own UFO's!! I am feeling so good about getting projects finished. I also cleaned out and reorganized my sewing room. Thank you so much for inspiring me and motivating me!!
I loved that you showed your machine quilting it takes lots of practice and you are well on your way. Keep this first try it is great to see your progress later. I lvoe seeing the things you have made from Camile's book it makes me want to start another project.
Wow...only discovered you blog the other day and everytime I get a free moment I am here with my cuppa...Love it... your an inspiration...Love those fresh fabric colors...so 'spring'y and 'chic'.. Now to buy the 'Super Awesome Book' to go with that super awesome fabric.

You did a fantastic job on the first quilt! You really are inspiring me!
I discovered your blog about two weeks ago (thanks to Simplify) and I immediatly found it wonderful (I like your tone, your colours, your quilts, etc.) Is this note kind enough to be able to win your first gift ?
Keep sharing your passion as you do !

the quilt looks super. congrats on finishing. I have Camillie's book too- I'm envious of your journey through it.
What a great idea I love Camille's book and have had it in mind to make a quilt from it very soon. I would love to win this fabric
I am a big fan of Camille. Bought her book a couple of weeks ago and am waiting to receive it. Cannot wait for starting sewing a quilt using her book. Love your Project Simplify. I also have fear of free motion quilting. I think I will start trying...
So much fun..I truly enjoy watching you quilt through the book. I own the book already, a must have if you adore Camille like so many of us do :)
I don't think you need to worry that no one will enter!
Have a great weekend,

I love the book and you've inspired me to actually try to make something out of it! Would love to win this giveaway.
How could no one enter? :-) What a fabulous prize - your quilt is fun and inspiring and the perfect project to do with my daughter too. I would love a chance at this. :-) And congrats on the free motion quilting. That is super awesome.

All of my favorite things! I absolutely love Susan Branch and have been following her for more years than I care to admit. As far as Simplify goes; I love it! I have made "all in the family" with Bliss and am currently working on "happy-go-lucky" with Lili & Will. I love every quilt in this book and would love nothing more than to combine Susan Branch and Simplify!! I love how your quilt turned out and your willingness to share your free motion quilting with us. I struggle with it, but you have encouraged me. Thank you!
What a great giveaway! I love the book too, and would love to get started on a project!
What a great giveaway. I love this project you are doing and Camille's book is so wonderful, I read it all the way through the first day I had it!
Jeepers.... does that say 64 comments!!! Wow, that's impressive!!! I'm not commenting to enter (you know me and my inability to sew... it would be a true waste of gorgeous fabric) but I just wanted to say what a brilliant little series your Project Simplify has been. Congrats my lovely and have a great weekend xx
Congratulations on finishing your first Simplify project! Good Job! Can't wait to see your next project. Since I have this book, winning your supplies would really encourage me to get started on this quilt!
I have the book! I'd love to make one just like yours!!!

I have the book, and I just love it. The fabric is great for a new project!
Fabulous!!!! I love the Simplify book and would be thrilled with the giveaway. I haven't done any free motion quilting...but it is time I try. You have inspired me!
I have the super awesome book and am just thrilled to have a chance to win the fabric to make this quilt!
I was tickled to come across your blog. A few quilting friends and I are trying to do the "use up your stash and not by any new fabric this year too!" So far we have been doing great. We also "shop " each others stash if we need a little something to finish a project . Love that you are working through "Simplify", it is a great book and I am looking forward to seeing your projects from it.
