Thank you again to Sew Fresh Fabrics for sponsoring such an awesome giveaway!  I'm sure you're all dying to know who the winner of my awesome half-yard bundle giveaway is...



Drumroll please..

And the winner is: Jenny of Cut.Sew.Iron.Repeat!  She said:

yes, these fabrics are amazingly gorgeous, thanks for a chance...im planning lots of quilts this year...next up is some charity quilts...hope to do a boy quilt and girl quilt! would love to use these fabrics!

Congratulations, Jenny!  I'd love to see the finished products, and I know Peg & Becca at Sew Fresh Fabrics would love that as well.  Thanks you all for entering, this has been a great way to kick off the new year!

In other news, I've had quilts on the brain.  Lots of them.  So much so that I'm dreaming about them.  I feel like it's been a while since I've done a quilt, but in reality it's only been a few weeks - I guess it just feels like longer with the holidays and all.  I've been thinking about a quilt-along...

Let me back up here.  I've got two sets of twins to make quilts for.  One set was just born a few weeks ago, and the other is due next month.  The just-born twins are up first to receive quilts from me.  Needless to say, I've got to get moving here.  I've been sketching for a month now, and I think I'm finally ready to stop sketching and start cutting into these gorgeous stacks of fabric...


Now that I've finally decided on a quilt design, I was thinking that since I need to make two of these, I could turn it into a quilt-along, if anyone is interested in joining me. It sure would be a lot more fun to stitch with all of you!  Let me know what you think!  This quilt will finish out at approximately 54" x 58" and will require 10-12 printed (and/or solid, you choose) fat quarters or a layer cake and a so-far-undetermined-yardage of a solid for sashing.  Any takers?  :)   Here's a sneak peek at the super easy, sliced coin quilt layout.
