Celebration Giveaway

This giveaway is now closed.  You can see who the lucky winner is here

Woohoo, today is the day my book is available in the US.  Now I'm determined that this won't be allowed to change my lifestyle at all, but I do want to celebrate, so I'm having a giveaway. 

So, what do you have to do to win?  I would like you to look at the quilt on the cover of the book, then go to 1Choice4Quilting, here and decide which four fabrics you would pick if you were making this quilt, then come back here and leave me a comment telling me your choices.  When you leave your comment PLEASE make sure I can get in touch with you if you are the wiunner.  If you don't have a blog, or are a no-reply or anonymous blogger, please leave an email address.  You can email that to me privately if you don't want to leave it publicly.

Now I expect you want to know what you could win don't you?  Shawna from 1Choice4Quilting wanted to help me celebrate, so she has very generously donated a $50 gift certificate valid in her shop.

I will close the giveaway at midnight (BST) next Tuesday, 19 July, use the random generator to draw a winner, and announce the name of the lucky person on Wednesday morning.

    Honestly. Far too difficult.

    I think I'd try Lollipop Lollipop Fishes as one square background, and Max Whiskers Lightning Fur as the other, and Luna Notte Marsala Marble Rose, and Acqua as the trellis fabrics.

    Happy day!

    Hi Sue! Congrats on the book release in the US! I would make this quilt in Strawberry Fields, I do believe. I love the look of all the Fig Tree quilts, and have never made one yet, so this would be the perfect opportunity.

    Thanks for the chance at a giveaway. Now, just in case this comes up as anonymous, I am Jayne from Jayne's Quilting Room, and we have often corresponded. I still can't quite understand why I can appear as me on some blogs, but on others (like yours) I cannot.

    Happy Quilting!!
    Jayne

    It's me again, Sue! It looks like trying a different profile (not google) worked! But I just listed the line of fabrics, and I see that you wanted specific individual fabrics, so here are mine, all from Strawberry Fields:
    1. yellow floral berry flowers
    2. red floral strawberry blooms
    3. red/pink polka dots
    4. tan floral summer bouquet

    Thanks again for the opportunity!

    Congrats on the book! I'll look forward to seeing more of it.

    I would choose ...

    Bryant Park B Fat Quarter Bundle by Anthology. I don't know how much fabric is needed for this pattern but I would hope there would be enough here. I would use those for the framing bits and would just get more yardage of some of them if necessary.

    For the inside squares, I would then use Bella Solids Gray and Bella Solids Feather (or the white that best matches with the Bryant Park fabrics).

    I'm so enchanted with this idea, I want to get started on it right now!

    See what you've done?!! ;-)

  44. Barbara13 July 2011 at 12:44

    This is a nearly impossible task for me as it usually takes me WEEKS to choose fabric for a quilt! (I have difficulty committing...LOL)! I think I can narrow it down by saying I'd choose two Bella Solids and some greens from Sunkissed. I don't have a green quilt, and would love one! I really love the pattern on the front of your book!

  45. Lisa England13 July 2011 at 12:55

    Flurry Glitter Crimson
    Ready, Set, Snow Seasonal Candy Stripes Red

    This is a very generous giveaway and I have been drooling over Late Bloomers due out in a couple of months. But for this quilt, I think I would like to try Moda solids Earth, Wheat, Cream and Coral.

    Oh crikey, last time I popped over to Shawna's website (after your recommendation) "just a look" turned out to be expensive. I'm not sure I dare go again ... what the heck, let's live dangerously. OK, I'm going to stick with the Christmas theme and choose some fabrics from the Flurry range, particularly the glitter red and green for the criss-cross design, plus a couple of the prints for the squares in between.

    Congrats on your release! I remember thinking of colors for this one before but I'm in a different mood now, so let me think... Blue, Red, Black, and Gray, whoops that's a song. "Mr. Jones" by Counting Crows. Oh well the red would be a solid or at least read solid, the grey would be dark almost like granite and a speckled black (so it wont show cat fur!), with the blue being royal marbled. You know that's what's great about your book. Pick the four pick the size and then start sewing!

    Pure coco words, ampersand, latte words and bubbles are what I would use. It would be a little busy, but I think it would look great. Congratulations on your book!

    I would use fabrics from Strawberry Fields, one would be the green polka dot, one of the checks and 2 of the florals. Can decide since there are so many that I love.

    From the Strawberry Fields line:
    Strawberry flowers red
    strawberry flowers yellow
    dots in natural
    dots in red were my favorite combination, but I really liked the idea of using the apricot solid with a brown also.

    Oh Sue, that's so coool! Congrats on your book! I'm so happy for you!
    Oh my, to pick four fabrics is not easy... I have never made a quilt using solids only, which would have been great. It's difficult to pick fabric (colors) from the computer only, but let me see....

    Bella Solids Fig tree Cream
    Bella Solids Fig tree Olive
    Bella Solids Golden Wheat
    Bella Solids Rust

    Sue, thanks so much for the opportunity to win!

    Congrats on the book release. Thanks for a chance to win. My pick would be Dogwood Trail with solid shades of either green, blue or pink. Have to have Dogwood in front of me to see what goes better. Very hard choice.

    I would choose the Baiks Dark Bundle (okay, that's 5 fabrics), but I LOVE batiks. Thanks for the opportunity to win your new book. As a new quilter, I still have difficulty choosing fabrics to use. Your book would be a great resource to me :)

    Well I would use Bella solids--likely a Feather and Tan for the backgrounds, but then I'd have to not follow rules and use a mix of other solids (more than 4 fabrics--sorry) Amelia green, orange, purple, blue, and maybe some of the 30's solids too--depending on how large it would grow)

    Firstly, Congratulations on the publishing of your book. To make the cover quilt, as it's English summer time I'd probably use a combination of the fabrics from the Strawberry fields range. Thanks for the chance to win.
