Quilter’s Blog Hop Party Giveaway!

335 Comments / Blog / By

It’s time for another Quilter’s Blog Hop Giveaway sponsored by Michele at Quilting Gallery!  Make sure to check out this link on Sunday for a list of participating blogs and their giveaways!  If you are new to our blog, Welcome!  I hope you will take a look around and visit us again.

Boy oh boy, I had big plans to create an awesome tutorial to go with this giveaway but life got in the way.  I spent most of this week getting my kiddos ready to head back to school on Monday.  So that meant last minute shopping trips for school supplies and meet the teacher events.  I finally found a few minutes to sit down and compose a post for the giveaway.  Unfortunately, I couldn’t find the time to put together an awesome tutorial.

Our giveaway will include 2 Moda charm packs.  One lucky winner will receive a Marmalade and a Simply Color charm pack.

Are you asking yourself, “What can I possibly make with these tiny 5″ squares?”  Let me tell you…you can make a lot with these little charm packs.

Not too long ago I posted a tutorial for a pillowcase using a charm pack.  Here’s a look at the finished pillowcase {I used a Simply Color charm pack}.

The best part is you can get two pillowcase cuffs out of one charm pack.

Charm packs are also great for quilts.  I made this quilt with a Moda Salt Air charm pack.  This is my original pattern.

Please excuse the terrible pictures.  It was too dark outside to take better pictures.  I had to settle on poor inside lighting.

These are just a few fun projects that work great for charm packs.  I hope you all enjoyed a little show and tell in place of a new tutorial!

And now it’s time for you all to enter the giveaway.

    I clicked to become a new follower. I hope it went through (never joined a blog in Networked Blogs before). I see some lovely light reds on your blog post. I’m desperately looking for some smallish pieces of light reds. Can you tell me what some of the ones you’ve used in your quilt are?
