I just realized I promised you all a giveaway today!
I am decidedly not in the "stash pact" or "fabric diet" camp this year. Actually I've ordered a bit more fabric than usual the last couple of weeks and bought more yarn than I could ever knit in the next coming months. Oh well, I've got other things on my plate right now than suffering defeat at another failed resolution. But in the spirit of supporting all of you who have made this resolution, how's about a gift of fabric?? It's OK if you didn't buy it yourself, right??
Dream On is such a gorgeous line from Urban Chiks for Moda, based on the designs of vintage sheets and ripe with sherbet-y pinks, greens, yellows, blues and oranges. I finished my Dream On quilt (you can see the whole thing by the link to it on my sidebar) this fall, and this fabric was truly a "dream" to sew with. Would you like to make one yourself?
For this giveaway I have not one, but TWO jelly rolls, FOUR YARDS of the beautiful patchwork cheater print for the backing and a half yard of the stripe in orange for a binding for one reader. Just add batting and maybe a solid and that's enough for one HUGE quilt!
Hopefully that will help someone lessen the pain of their fabric hunger pangs. All you have to do is leave me a comment telling me what is the number one project you would most love to complete in 2011, whether it be a quilt of a particular design, a crocheted granny afghan, a knitted sweater or just your first ever big sewing project. Be specific, I love to read the details! (My own goal is to complete my "Ode to Denyse Schmidt Colorwheel" quilt and my Liberty of London hexagon quilt!)
For a second chance to win, become a follower,
and for a third chance, blog or tweet about my giveaway!
Please, please make sure your blogger is not set to no-reply, or leave an email address so I can contact you. The winner will be chosen on Thursday the 20th of January. Good luck!
Oh, I would so love to complete my 'insanity' quilt... It's not nearly so bad as the inspirational quilt, mine is just about 1300 hexagons hand stitched, but crazy nonetheless!! Thank you for your blog and the giveaway.
ReplyDeletemy number one goal right now is to actually complete the scrappy qayg log cabin quilt. i want a queen size cover for my bed by summer. thanks for the giveaway!

ReplyDeleteI posted about your giveaway on my facebook page :)
ReplyDeletetweeted!
ReplyDeleteOoooooh! I love this giveaway! I absolutely love your blog and would be very excited to win! My number one project that is on my docket for this year is my sherbet pips quilt. It's made from improvisational log cabin style blocks and I'm 15 blocks into the 20 I need. I haven't started to think about the back yet, but I know I want it to be pieced and fun!
ReplyDeleteI'm already a follower (and big fan)! :)
ReplyDeleteI am going to finish a granny stripe blanket this year. To be specific, before July, because than a miracle will happen on which my sister & her husband have been waiting for for 10 years: their baby will be born! If everything else on my to
ReplyDelete'make' list fails, I will make this.

ReplyDeleteI would love to make myself a quilt. There are 2 lines of fabric I would choose from! Meadowsweet 1/2 and the other would be Tailor Made by Cosmo Cricket.
ReplyDeleteI am hoping to tackle the stash this year . . . I have buckets of Amy B and then there's my FMF which I really want to create something with but am too afraid to cut into. So, if I can get a couple of quilts knocked out AND finish my granny square pillow (seriously, who thought I could actually finish a granny square blanket?), I'll be happy.
ReplyDeleteI am also a follower!
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty line! I'd love to play with it! :)

ReplyDeleteI'm hoping to finish a red/black/gray improv. square quilt for my cousin's graduation, so I will give a quilt to someone on time for a change!
ReplyDeleteAwesome giveaway - thanks for hosting it!
Part of my stash dieting plan is to actually get on with trying different things and use what I've got. So even though I've initially signed up to an 8 week fabric fast, after that I intend buying fabric with particular projects in mind. I really want to finish my hand stitched hexie quilt and I'm on the home stretch as I'm working on the binding right now. Other things I really want to do this year is some simple dressmaking and a quilt large enough to go on the end of my bed - which I've found a little daunting up to now becaues of managing the quilting on a regular sewing machine.
ReplyDeleteAnd I follow you with my Google Reader :)

ReplyDeleteSo much and such pretty fabric! After making many small quilts, I definitely am making a large one for my own bed this year.:)
ReplyDeleteI really want to finish my first real-sized (twin) quilt. Now that the "I must finish by Christmas" adrenaline has worn off, I'm not feeling the pressure, and it's just sitting there.
ReplyDeleteMy big sewing project this year is a giant wall hanging for above my sofa. It's going to be done in all solids. I can't wait!
ReplyDeleteWoohoo for support of those on a fabric diet!! This would definitely feed my need for some yummy fabric!
ReplyDeleteOne of my number one projects to do this year is a super mario bros. quilt for one of my brothers. It's going to be awesome!
Well right now I really want to finish my sweet pea quilt. It's a cinderberry stitches quilt. But I have some other projects that are on my to do list for the year. You can check all out here: http://bethann-mn.blogspot.com/2011/01/goals-for-2011.html
ReplyDeleteI'm already a follower and a huge fan!
ReplyDeleteThis year I need to have more fun, which for me is to spend more time in my sewing room. I have lost my mother and my sister in the past two years and I need to lock in to the joy in life. I also have learned not to put things off since you don't know if later will be an option. I am really determined to make this happen.
ReplyDeleteWe are building a cabin on our property in the mountains this summer, so I want to make a massive flannel quilt for cold winter nights:)

ReplyDeleteMy biggest goal for the year is to design an original, very modern quilt - or even a series! I think inspiration has struck, now to begin!
ReplyDeleteMy number one project is to finish two quilts that I started for my boys. I had hoped to have them ready by Christmas but I had a little detour :-( AND I would love to learn how to knit something other then a scarf :-) Great giveaway!

ReplyDeleteLovely! I'm committed to Stash Pact and so giveaways are always nice. I'm committed to finishing at least two quilts and two garments this year. The first quilt is for my sister and which I started at the end of last year. The second quilt is using some Anna Maria Horner flannel that was part of my last fabric purchase of 2010. (my email is poohba02 (at) yahoo (dot)com) Thanks for hosting this lovely giveaway!
ReplyDeleteMy goal is to complete a quilt for a queen-sized bed I'm doing the hexagons (not paper-pieced) from Julie's quilt-along earlier last year. Don't know how to quilt something that size, but I'm game! I've started piecing it, but have a long ways to go!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I probably should be on the fabric diet, too, but I'm not. It's my personal stimulus package-I don't want anyone to go out of business!
The first thing I want to finish this year would be the mystery quilt from Bonnie ..roll roll cotton ball.
ReplyDeleteThen I have four baby quilts that I need to get done before April.
I'm a follower! And what a generous give-away you have!
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping to finish my hexagon quilt! It's queen size so it may be a bit ambitious to try and finish this year.
ReplyDeleteMy other goal is to try to finish more projects before I start new ones. I have a real problem with having too many things going at once and so I feel like I never finish anything!
Thanks so much for the chance to win. This fabric is yummy!

I would love to finish a purple and green bargello quilt this year... it's one of my biggest UFOs and I would like to give it as a wedding gift later this year.
ReplyDeleteAwesome giveaway!! Thanks for the chance to win this great fabric!
I blogged about your giveaway...be prepared for all kinds of people coming because they're on the fabric diet with me. LOL.
ReplyDeletehttp://cuttopieces.blogspot.com/2011/01/fabulous-giveawayspecifically-for.html
My project for this year is to learn how to bind my quilts. I just started quilting and I am not afraid of free motion on my machine but hand binding is a different story.
ReplyDeleteI'd be nice to actually finish a quilt from start to end all myself.
Thanks for a great giveaway
My number one goal is to finish a baby quilt that I started in december. It normally takes me two days to complete one but this one is different. It needs to be freemotionquilted with some wiggles and stars in it (and I had many people suggest solutions for the quilting until we came up with this!). And I have never ever fmq before! So in order to complete this quilt I need to learn how to fmq...
ReplyDeleteThis would be perfect for a project to procrastinate starting on the quilt :)
Thank you!
OMG! I want this fabric so badly and I'm on a fabric diet! Fabulous giveaway! As for a project I hope to complete, I'd really like to make something with all the Munki charms I've collected. I can't decide on a project though!

ReplyDeleteEver since I saw Elizabeth Hartman's Kitchen Window, I have had a hankering to make it. I have no idea what fabrics I would use...something modern, I know that much, but then half the enjoyment comes from deciding which fabric to use. It's a bit like going on holiday...I love all the planning and reading and sussing out places before I go there.
ReplyDeleteI am on an undeclared fabric buying ban. I know I will fail, so I chose to not declare anything. I never bought any dream on and I love it so......
ReplyDeleteMy goal is to finish my orange/grey/snails sampler quilt
http://oversewn.blogspot.com/2010/10/orange-and-grey-snail-sampler-sort-of.html

I really really want to finish the quilt with the blocks from my quilting bee I was in last year.
ReplyDeleteOmg, so insanely generous! And I AM on a fabric diet!
ReplyDeleteI'd like to finalize a design for my Heather Ross tribute quilt, make my Far Far Away sand castles quilt, make the hubs a Super Mario quilt for Christmas. But you said one major thing, so that would be to sew more for me and actually keep something this year! lol
I would love to first complete my unfinished quilts (I think I have 4 or 5)! and then, as a reward - start AND finish my FMF quilt! Cannot wait - haven't decided for certain on the pattern to use, but most likely Square in a Square with some coordinating solids.
ReplyDeleteI already follow you in my google reader. {love that thing!}
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great great give away!!!
My first goal is to assemble my sewing room in our new house :) After that, I'd like to finish out a few doll quilts I have already started...and maybe make a throw sized one for snuggling up on the couch. I know my daughters would love the Dream On fabric - it would make great throws for their beds in their new room!
ReplyDeletei would love this! this year i hope to complete a liberty stars quilt along. 56 hand pieced stars from liberty and amh voiles - so far i've done half of one!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteI have made the resolution not to buy a scrap of fabric this year. I have a horrible feeling it's not going to be easy though, but I am quite looking forward to busting my wips and flying through my stash to back quilts and stuff.
ReplyDeleteMy biggie for this year is to finish up my hexy MF quilt and to make the blooming single girl quilt that has been nagging at me to start for the longest time.
Count me in, Megan! I am a follower, of course!
ReplyDeleteI would love to finish my first quilt (which right now will either be a charm pack baby quilt OR a postage stamp quilt). We'll see!!

As for my project to finish...well, I have about 5 on the go and enough fabric stashed for MANY more, but my #1 thing to do is to finish a quilt for ME :-) Have got one started, so on my way!
ReplyDeleteLove Dream On, thanks for the giveaway!
What would I most like to finish in 2011? How about a complete quilt? Especially my WIPs! My machine broke in the summer, I got a new one... but between working full time and starting grad school and moving from 2000 sq feet to 840 sq feet, I just have not had time (or space) to sew. The Austin Modern Quilt Guild is heading out for a retreat in February, and my goal is to finish (except for binding, which I can do at home while watching tv) one entire quilt... if not two quilts! See, this is how I get myself into trouble! :)

Awesome! Giveaway! I'm totally in love with dream on and would love more of it. I'm not in on any flickr pact, but I am on a self imposed buying ban, so...My big goal this year is to get my very long term scrap quilt done.
ReplyDeleteHello.
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway, thanks for the opportunity. As I think of an answer, I can't really decided between two projects. The first project I would like to sucessfully complete (the keyword here being sucessfully... or completemaybe) is the Blossom Shoulder Bag by Amy Butler. I love it, Ithink it's really me and would love to have one made by me.
The second project is a bit more abstract. I would love to make a piece of clothing for myself,like a jacket or a dress. That would lookgood of course ;)

My number one project is to quilt the five tops that I have done. I guess that is really five projects, but I'm lumping them into one. If I do one a month, I should be able to have another five unfinished tops by the end of the year! hahaha
ReplyDeleteI am a follower! Love your blog.
ReplyDeleteI have about half of the yoyos finished for a yoyo quilt. Only 600 left to make ... and then sewing them together. I WILL finish this year. I WILL also finish a quilt made out of antique handkerchiefs for my daughter. And ... a t-shirt quilt for my son? Sure. Why not. And then I can start something for ME with this cheery fabric if I'm lucky enough to win it.
ReplyDeleteTo kick off the year, I'm planning to join in on Quilt Dad's Blogger Block-a-Palooza. Since I'm a new quilter this is going to be a big project for me and I'm sure I'll learn a lot.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm a follower. Thanks for such a generous giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI just want to survive the next few months! I blogged my to-sew list today and got a little scared. But once all that blows over, I really want to learn to free-motion quilt. Only being able to straight-line quilt is really holding me back.
ReplyDeleteLove the giveaway. I really want to finish my Life is Beautiful quilt this year. Now I am off to clean my sewing room/library.
ReplyDeleteA Color Wheel Quilt...I just love the way they sparkle.
ReplyDeleteI have just blogged about this giveaway at www(dot)happiestwhencrafting(dot)blogspot(dot)com
ReplyDeleteI love the fabrics in the give away! the one project I would love to finish is my Shang Ri La, I started 2 yrs ago!!
ReplyDeleteMy number one project is to get my sewing organized. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI hope to finish handquilting my tiny flying geese quilt this year, or even just start, or maybe just get it basted... Thank you for such a great giveaway, your quilt is amazing!
ReplyDeleteI am a follower. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteWow! That is a fabulous giveaway. I guess I have two main completion goals this year. A baby quilt for my best friend who is due with her first child any day now and the owlette sweater for me--although that one isn't even started yet.

The project that I would like to complete this year is to make a queen sized quilt for our bed. The largest quilt I've completed is a twin sized for my son's bed. I really want to use my Nicey Jane fabrics, but I can't decide on a pattern, so I haven't started it yet.
ReplyDeleteThis fabric is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThis year I definitely want to make a quilt for my daughter's big girl bed before baby #2 makes his/her appearance in July.
I have all the pieces cut out for Oh Fransson's Tokyo Subway Map Quilt -- I really, really want to finish that quilt but the number of pieces and accuracy required is intimidating me.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I gave my mom a queen-sized quilt top for Christmas and I must quilt it soon. The problem that it is a very traditional quilt (which I normally don't make) with both appliqué and piecing and many borders and I have no idea how to quilt it. Stippling just won't cut it!
And I follow your blog.
ReplyDeleteI am a humble follower.
ReplyDeleteI have many projects I would like to finish this year. One being my own bed quilt which has sat in a project box for 2 years.
ReplyDeleteThis year I would love to do a queen sized pickle dish quilt for my guest bedroom. I know it's going to be a lot of work but I'm excited to give it a try!

ReplyDeleteI am a follower of your lovely blog! One of my goals for this year is to complete several comfort quilts. One is for my sister who has cancer and another for my friend that has ALS.
ReplyDeleteThis might be the most amazing giveaway ever! I really loved the look of every quilt I saw done in "Dream On", but it came out right in the midst of my only successful attempt at curbing my fabric-buying addiction. :D
ReplyDeleteWhat I most want to finish this year is a bed-sized quilt made with Nicey Jane and a Minick & Simpson pattern. I've been working on it for about a year, so I'd really love to go into 2012 with it off the books!

ReplyDeleteI need to make my sister's wedding quilt (already late as is....it's black, white, and red for sure but I keep vacillating on the design). I'd like to make a string quilt, spiderweb quilt, and/or a version of the tokyo subway quilt for myself.

ReplyDeleteI'm a follower! Thanks so much for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI started working on a signature quilt for my sister signed by her roller derby team the Hot Rod Honeys. I decided to embroider all of the names to make them more permanent and lost steam after I realized how long the embroidery alone was going to take. I am really anxious to get past that part and move onto the piecing and quilting! Honestly I don't have a full design in place because I am still trying to figure out how to make a hot pink and black & white checkered quilt not look obnoxious!

ReplyDeleteWow! Great giveaway! Thanks for the chance to win! Right now I am working on two different quilts which both happen to be tutorials! I hope much more will come this year :)
ReplyDeleteWell, since my daughter, Beth, posted that she wants her cat quilt, I guess that is the project I would most like to finish. :) Since it is January and I need to finish it in 2011, I should have plenty of time. The fabric would be a great addition if I won. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteThis year, I would really really like to make a hexagon quilt. I love looking at all the little hexagons in the Hex Bees on Flickr. I have no idea if I'm patient enough to make one, but I'd like to try!
ReplyDeleteI've made one quilt from Gail Lawther's new book - I'd love to complete them all this year!
ReplyDeleteout of the things that i've started, and haven't finished - i really want to finish the two quilts i started for my girl's last year. they were my first official quilts that i started, but because of the christmas rush, and swaps, and whatever else, they got put on the back burner.

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, wow - great fabric giveaway!! My top project this year is my king size Single Girl quilt, in reds, aquas and possibly grays, and so far, I've made zero progress. Well, maybe not zero, but I haven't cut into a single piece of fabric yet.
ReplyDeleteFirst and foremost on my 2011 list is a baby quilt I started for my grandson - who is now 2. I hope to have it done before he outgrows such a small sized quilt!
ReplyDeleteI hope to make a quilt, any quilt! I have never dared start on one as I'm a relatively new sewer. Thanks for the chance.
ReplyDeleteI started quilting in sept 10, i made 4 mini quilts last year and my mum a single quilt, this year i would love to make my little girl a quilt for her big bed
ReplyDeleteOh, my big project would be a quilt for my bed! I have some Modern Meadow fat quarters I have been saving, and I have plans to make a Turning Twenty Quilt.

ReplyDeleteThe project I would most like to do this year is a cross-stitch of a prayer. It is beautiful and I have had the pattern for years. I just lack the courage to attempt such a large cross-stitch. Second, I would like to make a quilt combining Rail Fence with the Ohio Star for my Aunt who lives in Ohio. She would love it.

ReplyDeleteEEEKKK! What a fab giveaway!! I love this line!
ReplyDeleteI would totally love to dive into the pickledish quilt, but want to be 110% sure that I finish it and not just give up on it... know what I mean? If I am working on something too long I get sick of looking at it, and off it goes into a pile of "If I look at this quilt top one more time I'm gonna yak!"

My big finish this year will be a paint by number deer quilt for my hubby! He has been patiently waiting for a quilt forever! Nice giveaway!

ReplyDeleteI am follower! Thanks for a chance to win such an awesome giveaway.
ReplyDeleteLOL, what an awesome reason for a giveaway -- thanks so much for it:) I'm fully in support of your acquiring new craft supplies while the rest of us are not!
ReplyDeleteThe project that comes to mind for me is a sawtooth star quilt made with Heather Ross fabrics in the centre squares. I'm even in the process of quilting it right now, and of course my sewing machine started to malfunction and is currently in the shop. I'm kind of sad about the quilting, as I was overly ambitious and decided to go free-motion meandering, but the quilt is just so huge (almost 80" square) that I find it really hard to control. I just keep reminding myself that the recipient, my brother, will never notice!
Thanks again and have an awesome weekend:)
Thank you so much for this chance!!!
ReplyDeleteMy #1 goal for the year is to finish an I-Spy quilt for my 5 year old. I was part of a swap last year and have been inching along...but have never been really motivated. Regardless of my interest level, my son is desperate to see this thing finished. So, I MUST persevere.
Thanks again!
I'm not doing the stash pact thing either, but I am making more of an effort to avoid buying things that aren't for specific projects. The project I would like to complete this year? I want to make a crib or lap-sized double wedding ring and learn to hand quilt in preparation for the king-sized version I'll be making next year for my parents' 40th wedding anniversary.

ReplyDeletePaper piecing!! One of 2 quilting resolutions! (the other is to learn how to do triangles) i am making a Harry Potter quilt out of 5" paper pieced blocks. Or, at least i am going to try! I have never used a jelly roll but i hear they are fantastic!!

My number one goal is to complete the 4 thangles quilts that I have partly done. I would have enough to give each of my children a new quilt. 2 of them have the blocks all done in bright colors. The third one has a few blocks done and the fourth only has the pieces in a bag. I would really like to finish them in 2011. Along with a lot of other projects. THe fabric is beautiful in your giveaway. Thanks for the chance to win.

I would love to complete my "polka dot" quilt. I have been collecting dots for about 6 years now, I am obsessed with them. I want a white and dot quilt, huge and all for me!

ReplyDeleteI would love to attempt a string quilt. They are so beautiful. I just need to collect enough scraps. I'm also going to attempt embroidery and try knitting again. I prefer crochet over knitting, but I'll see if I change my mind.
ReplyDeleteI became a follower. I love your blog.
ReplyDeleteGoals for this year, sewing wise, are: Two Weekenders (bridal shower gifts. One is over due and one needs to be done by May), a Roundabout quilt for my son that I started last weekend, a string quilt for my sister (wedding gift that I thought I had until Sept to make but they move the wedding to May. Eeek!), and a quilt for the new baby girl we just had in Dec. Hopefully this will all be done by June-ish.... Hmmm, maybe not. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI'd just love to make a zig-zag quilt this year. I know it's not too ambitious, but I love them! Thanks so much for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI never had some fabrics so beautiful. If I win I'll do a baby quilt and several bags. Thanks for the chance to win!
