The winner for this giveaway is Mel!  Congratulations Mel.  We hope you enjoy your delicious jelly roll.

Do you have your machine oiled, your bobbin filled and an endless supply of thread?  We are so thrilled to kick off jelly roll week.

For your info, we are going to have short video clips, with ideas and examples.  Our main purpose is to get you excited about all the possibilities you have working with jelly rolls.  (hello?  2-1/2 inches of PRE-cut Heaven, if you ask me)

I am gonna go out on a limb here, and start  a little early  and kick this off with a GIVEAWAY! This giveaway will last through the week. I will choose a winner, using the random generator a week from today!

What I want you to do, to get in on the action is :

1. Blog about our Jelly Roll Week. Let your friends know how awesome this is gonna be, and link back to us.

2. Leave me a comment and a way for me to visit your blog!

That’s it…that is easy as ever…..considering I am gonna GIVE you a JELLY ROLL! Yup, you read that right…..a jelly roll.  For. Free. Just for leaving a comment and linking to us on your blog.  🙂  How great is that?  Which Jelly Roll, you ask!?  Hmmm, how about I let you pick the one that suits your taste.  IF you win, you will get to choose between an Arcadia, Spring Magic, Caroler or Wonderland Jelly Roll.    WHICHEVER ONE YOU WANT! (I know!  Hard choice, huh!)

How could I!?!?!?

Forget to mention that in the forums we are giving away a HONEY BUN!??!?!?!  Yes, I know…I should have told you sooner.

Another Disappearing nine patch…

Okay, so the truth is out.  I LOVE the disappearing nine patch.  I have been raving about it like a crazy woman in the shop.

Seriously, is this not the BEST boy quilt you’ve seen in a while!?!?

Another thing that I just adore is when someone I have talked to about it, brings  back something she’s made and shows off her quilt top!  Those things combined equals the best.day.ever!!  😉 This amazing lady (who chose to conceal her identity 🙂 ) has already made two of these quilts.  (yes, I said two..and I think she’s planning on a few more!)  Her first was with the Soiree charm pack (Lila Tueller) and it was so darling!  Well, I just about had a fit when she brought this quilt in…..using our new Micheal Miller fabric and some bright Moda fat quarters!  I love how BOY it is….and how bright and fun it is!  Thanks Mystery Lady for stopping by to give me my very own show and tell!!
