You've Got Mail!

Remember two weeks ago when I won this?


Well while I was gone over the weekend a surprise package was waiting for me. Actually, TWO surprise packages were waiting.

Okay, so one wasn't really a surprise since I bought the two charm packs it contained, but my 'winnings' from Talkin' Tuesdays blew me out of the water!

{they sent me PURE!}

{um, are you DYING inside like me?}

{I've been wanting to get my hands on this for ages!}

{but I couldn't justify it since it's so 'boy'}

{and now I need no justification}

THANKS STITCIN' HEAVEN! You know I'll be joining up again tomorrow night!

Today's love (and most days, for that matter) is giveaways! I mean, who doesn't love to win things? Especially craft things!

Well, if you haven't already heard, Moda Bake Shop has been whipping up a new book! It's called "Fresh Fabric Treats" by Stash Books! The recipes are sworn to be tempting and delicious and to celebrate the book, they are doing a 'progressive dinner'! How fun. A progressive fabric dinner. :) And the best part-- TONS of giveaways!

Join in for a Progressive Dinner this week with 15 of your favorite Bake Shop Chefs who are all featured in the new book. You won't want to miss it... each stop will be full of fun and prizes!

Each author will be giving away a copy of the new book and a fabulous Moda pre-cut! Yipee!

For a chance to win a fat quarter bundle, fat eighth bundle, jelly roll, layer cake, and a charm pack (a $200 value!), be sure to comment on every author's Progressive Dinner post starting TODAY, January 20th. Good luck to you!

Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner!

If you haven't heard of Talkin' Tuesdays, you are missing out. I found out about them this week and joined in my first one on, well, Tuesday. Basically, it's a 2 hour (ish) twitter chat with a large network of sew-happy people that starts at 7pm MST. Cara from CaraQuilts hosts it each week and tweets questions that get the conversation moving. It's a great place to get in touch with some other quilt lovers AND, yes, AND, Cara has sponsors each week that do giveaways. How neat is that?!?

I will tell you first hand how neat it is because last night I WON! Yup, little ol' me won a layer cake of this beautiful stuff!


I'm so excited that this fabric gets to come live with me. At least until I turn it into something even more fun than a pile of fabric (which is hard come by)! Thanks Cara for letting us all in on the fun.

So again, to join in the chat, get a twitter account and just add #talknt to all your tweets so others can view your comments! Let me know if you have questions and be sure to link up to the Talkin' Tuesdays blog!
