a piece of cake ~ book tour and giveaway (with a twist)

I met Peta Peace at Quilt Market this past spring and I can say with unmitigated joy that she quickly became one of my favourite people with her irresistable Aussie accent and her side-splitting sense of humour.  Wow can that girl ever tell a great story!  So when I learned that her first book was coming out, I practically begged her to let me be part of the book tour.  So happy she let me join in the fun. :)

Peta's quilt designs are just as the name of her book suggests - easy (and delicious) to make. As I went through the beautiful pages of her book - tons of eye candy, by the way - I immediately decided that I NEEDED to make this adorable "LOVE" quilt with the pinks from First Romance.  Such a perfect match, I think. ;)

The quilt in her book is a perfectly sized baby quilt, but I decided to shrink mine to about half the size (maybe a wee bit smaller than that) and it is the perfect wallhanging.

Congratulations on your first of hopefully many great quilt books, Peta! xoxo

And now for the giveaway.  YOU MUST ENTER ON INSTAGRAM!

The prize is this LOVE quilt that I made.  But there is a twist ... you can't win it for yourself, you can only win it for someone you love. :)  If the one you love wins, YOU will also win a jelly roll of First Romance.

So find me on IG @prettybyhand for more details on how to enter.

What a cutie, I love it shrunk down, it's adorable. This really would be perfect for a little girl's room.

I was just wondering who won the LOVE quilt. I've tried to find out who it was and can't seem to locate their name. Thanks Rina
