THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED!
THANKS TO ALL WHO ENTERED.
Welcome to my stop on the Giving Thanks Quilter's Blog Hop Party.
Before I share the giveaway, I'd like to show my most recent finish.
I'm calling it Sweet Baby Tula.
(36" x 42")
This little quilt is a smaller version of a larger one that I made for an upcoming
quilt show. Not sure how to quilt the larger one, I decided to use the leftover
blocks to make a smaller version that I could practice my quilting ideas on
without worrying about messing up and having to rip out stitches.
Here is a closer look at my feathers! I'm no master longarm
quilter but I think I do a pretty good feather.
I know the quilt above looks a little wonky but I swear it's not. Cameras do funny things
to objects when they are not laying perfect flat and/or blocked. And to prove it,
here is a photo of the quilt after it was quilted and before it was washed.
Now for what you came by for...the GIVEAWAY!
Since the winner of my last giveaway never responded...I'm giving away her stuff!
Up for grabs is "101 Fabulous Small Quilts," an Olfa Splash and a
Seam-Fix seam ripper.The lucky winner will ALSO receive a
40-piece Charm Pack custom made from my stash to go along with the book.
For a chance to win, simply leave me a comment telling me what style of quilter
you are (traditional, modern, arty, somewhere in between) and what fabrics do you most
like to use (Civil War, 30's, batiks, modern...maybe a favorite designer).
If you don't answer the questions, you don't get the charms.
This giveaway is open to EVERYONE. It doesn't matter where you live.
Just make sure I have a way to contact you. "No reply" commenters that
do not leave their email address are not eligible for the giveaway.
On Tuesday, November 26th, I'll announce the winner which
will be chosen via random number generator.
Good luck to everyone!!!

What a great giveaway! Thank you so much. I guess I'm a modern quilter because I use modern fabrics, but I do use traditional blocks and patterns from time to time. Some of my favorite fabric designers are Tula Pink (your quilt is beautiful, btw!), Sarah Jane, Anna Marie Horner, Bonnie and Camille, Leah Duncan... I could keep going on and on...

I think I'm in the middle of modern and traditional quilting.

Not sure what kind of quilter I am. Love looking at traditional and modern patterns but love to design my own. Love making quilts for nieces and nephews. I love batiks and lots of bright colors.
thank you for the giveaway! I would consider myself to be an in-between quilter a variety of every style. I also like every type of fabric especially vintage. seahavenmom@aim.com
I would say I am a more modern quilter. Although I do like traditional blocks as well, just using modern fabrics. My favorite fabric lines come from Camille and Bonnie. I love all of the aqua and reds. I would say though that if I have a choice of what I win though--I would love some 30's prints. I am looking to put some scrappy quilts together.
I am also following you.
I am modern through and through and fabrics as you would guess- solids, AMH, Tula, Joel Dewberry, Kate Spain, etc.. Thank you for participating in the blog hop.
Following through GFC.
I'd consider myself to be a modern traditionalist - I like traditional blocks but modern fabrics. Heather Ross, Bonnie and Camille and Lizzy House are a few of my favorites.

Gosh, I am not sure but I think people would look at my work and say I am a modern quilter (but I love it all). However, I recently discovered Tula Pink and am hooked! Such beautiful patterns and colors!
PS I love your finish! Great colors and design! And those feathers...awesome!
I'm a beginner quilter! I've only done one quilt, but it was a modern quilt.
I follow you on Google connect
Beautiful quilt you made! I'm a traditional quilter but I'm trying new things and the "modern" quilts are catching my eye. I've done lots of civil war quilts but now want to work with different fabrics. Next year I'm doing a BOM at my LQS with 30's. I'm also doing an online BOM using Kate Spain fabrics, she's my favorite designer.

I'm somewhere in between and I love modern fabrics!
Love your giveaway. I am between traditional and modern. Probably more traditional. I am not so big on negative space. Seems like cheating. I usually chose fabrics by color rather then designer because I love to paper piece.in short I just like it all. Except big flowery stuff
I'm a fairly traditional quilter who likes to use batiks.
I love bright cheerful contemporary quilts and have been intrigued with Kate Spain fabrics during this Blog Hop. I do machine quilting to save wear and tear on my hands, and I'm trying to practice my free-motion quilting.
I'm a modern/traditional quilter. I like amy butler. And am in LOVE with bonnie and camille fabric lines.

I like making traditional blocks in a modern way--sometimes by changing the setting to include more negative space, but always by using fabric with a modern feel, especially lots of solids. Thanks for the chance to win such a great giveaway.
I love traditional blocks and patterns but modern fabrics (plus feedsack reproductions). Kate Spain is my favourite designer.
I am a beginner or intermediate beginner. I have made a quilt for all 6 of my grandchildren and all 5 of my children. But they were not complicated quilts at all. I really like the modern look, but I think scrappy quilts so far have been my favorites.
I'm a modern quilter; I tend to graviate towards solids or fabrics with a strong geometric pattern.
Fandom quilter... anything disney or similar inspires my paper piecing blocks! And I like colorful and fun fabric. Thanks for the chance to win
And I am a new GFC follower.
I tend to do more traditional patterns and applique but love to use modern fabrics in them. I love anything geometric but really like Bonnie and Camille. Guess I just can't make up my mind what I kind of quilter I am.
I'm traditional with an open mind. I'm liking the more modern ,fresh look of no borders. I like batiks mostly but also black and whites. Thank you for the chance to win.
I'm a traditional quilter but I need to venture forth into more modern styles. I like to use more "traditional" fabrics and do love to make scrappy quilts from my sister's scraps.

I'd say I'm evolving into a modern quilter from more traditional roots. I love batiks, kaffe Fassett, or anything green, blue, purple. Thanks.
Wow, I love your blog. I'm a new follower now through Bloglovin. Thanks!!
Hi Monica, I would definitely classify myself as a traditional quilter and therefore, love Civil War and 1930's fabrics. However, the modern fabrics are also great in traditional quilts. Thank you for a chance to win your generous giveaway.
I consider myself a semi modern quilter and I'm drawn to solids and modern designs. I love your modern quilt. Thank your for a chance to win your giveaway
I am definitely between traditional and modern. I've only made one machine pieced top so far, but have not quilted it yet. There are several sections where the designer fabrics have frayed so they are very close (two or three threads) to the seam allowance. I'm concerned to quilt and wash it, I don't want it to fray at the seams. I have not allowed that to put a damper on my enthusiasm for quilting though. I love bright vivid colors, especially turquoise and orange right now. I also love contrasting colors and prints such as whites and blacks. Thanks for participating in this give away.

I definitely would call myself traditional with a strong attachment to civil war reproductions but I have been spreading my wings lately and made 4 modern style quilts It tinkles me to see you made a modern design and still added those amazing beautiful feathers to it. I also want to improve my applique skills and have started 3 projects using a different technique on each one to see where that takes me. Happy Thanksgiving!
I am somewhere in between. I love modern, and I love traditional. I love to use solids, I LOVE 30's fabric but I don't have any, I LOVE Jeni Baker and I love almost any designer from Art Gallery Fabrics. Thanks for the chance to win. This is an AWESOME giveaway and i'd love to win!

I'm pretty eclectic - I like most every style of quilting and most types of fabrics too. I actually wish I was more focused as it would be easier! Great giveaway - thank you!
I'm a new follower via Feedly.
i like traditional and modern ... modern is all about freedom and traditional all about precision sewing sort of .. i ver much like traditional quilting in modern fabrics and modern quilting in traditional fabrics ...
I really go for saturated colours, so the dark browns, reds, greens and blues of civial war repros are really something for my autumn side - but then I also like bold brught contrasts with solids ...
so i guess not sticking to any "style" too closely is the solution --- I simply do what I fancy at any given moment ..
I love modern designs, but still have space in heart for traditional... with fabrics I am more modren though... I love Melody Miller, Echino and Kaffe Fassett
I am a combo of traditional and nontraditional quilter. I am in need of a rotary cutter right now.
I am an "inbetween" quilter and I use mostly modern fabrics.
beth.sebastian@gmail.com
I'm definitely more modern and I love the modern fabrics!
I think I am somewhere between traditional and modern and batiks are my fabric of choice. Thanks, Jackie
My favorite style is modern. I also like modern fabrics - bright colors and chevrons are my favorite. Thanks!
I consider myself a "modernitional" quilter...love batiks and today's modern fabrics. Thanks for the chance!
I'm more of a modern traditionalist.. i love batiks and bright, clear colours. Thanks so much for sharing a wonderful giveaway.
Previous winner certainly missed out. I'm mod-traditionalist but try to not get caught up in the labels too much.
I'd like to think I'm a traditional quilter but I am loving the modern movement right now.
I am following your Flickr photos. I like your work.
Hi Monica, I'm a traditional quilter but my fabric choices run the gamut. I have no favorites, just whatever catches my eye as I pass by. Denise (editor@thegam.com)
I like to use brights with a more modern look in my quilting projects.
I love to use traditional quilt patterns, but I try to make them in my own way, using modern fabrics. I am intrigued by unusual methods of constructing the pieces; chain piecing, paper piecing. Also, I like to use all kinds of fabrics; I look at the colors and busyness of the design rather than the category it would fit into.
Thank you for the chance to win those exciting items and also for the challenge of thinking about why I do what I do!
I am basically a traditional quilter but I also really like the bright, modern colors and simpler designs.
I'm an all-over-the-board quilter. I'm not sure there's a style I don't like! As for fabric, I love novelty prints and tone on tone! Thanks for hosting. pbstrand@msn.com
I am an eclectic quilter. I love traditional and also modern, but probably make more traditional. I love modern fabrics too but again have not learned how to use them as much a traditional fabrics.
And I am a follower.
I'm a somewhere in between style quilter who is drawn to bright fabrics. A lot of my kits in my to do tub are batik. ll_gee at hotmail dot com
Love your new creation.
I really like bright colours and fun patterns so I guess I'd say I was more modern with my style.
Great giveaway.
emma.house@thebowesmuseum.org.uk
I love applique and batik fabrics.
teeitup1@tampabay.rr.com
I think i am somewhere in the middle. I like mordern fabric... i guess. I like the cute prints. My forovite designers are Tasha Noel, Bonnie and Camille and Aneela Hoey... and Lori Holt.
I guess my current style of quilting is crazy charms, however, I have made quilts out of Batic, sampler quilts and colourwash.
I guess if I see a pattern that grabs me I make it.
Thank you for the chance to win.

I think I tend to old fashioned style blocks but am starting to lean towards more modern free style type stuff with raw edge applique being featured a lot. While I prefer cottons when quilting, sometimes I find home dec fabrics that work well. Weird, huh? sewingblogsarefun at yahoo dot com
I'm definitely a traditional quilter. I love flowery prints
