Quilt Giveaway! UPDATE Winner Announced

UPDATE: The Winner of the Quilt Giveaway is Ramona Dunihoo. Congratulations!!!

Last month, John and I were in Idaho visiting our friends the Morrows, who live in Rigby. I had to visit my favorite little quilt shop in Idaho Falls, Daydreams Quilt N Sew!  

Annalee Leonard was kind enough to host me for a couple of great days sewing in her shop, lots of folks came out to say hello, it was really fun to see everyone. I love Annalee's shop and since we are planning to move out that direction in a year or two...well, I want to do everything I can to support her little quilt shop. There is something wonderful about being able to walk into your local quilt shop and touch the fabric, to spend time browsing through the patterns and notions and to enjoy the camaraderie that exists between fellow quilters. We recently lost 3 very good local quilt shops near our home in Foresthill, California and so I think I am probably more acutely aware of how important it is to support local businesses.

Last Months Winner, Sue Whiteley

You will remember last month we gave away the Brother Project Runway sewing machine that I had shipped out to the shop to sew on for a couple days. The Winner was Sue Whiteley. Well, this month we are giving away the quilt that I worked on in Annalee's shop! 

The fabric used to make the quilt is Woof Woof Meow designed by Stacy lest Hsu for Moda. Such a sweet jelly roll filled with kitties and puppies, paw prints and balls of yarn. Perfect for anyone who has an affinity for fur babies.

The quilt pattern is called Keyhole from Missouri Star Quilt Company. It's a fun and easy quilt to make, perfect for a beginner and great for a seasoned quilter who wants to do some "no thinking" quilting. The video by Jenny Doan of Missouri Star Quilt Company will teach you how to make this quilt.  The type of fabric you select will dictate the "style" of your quilt. This quilt fabric is whimsical and yet the color palette and the design of the quilt lends it to a multitude of styles. 

I decided to take a few of the remaining blocks and make a standard pillow sham. The quilt finishes at about 65" by 73".

There are so many cute motifs in the fabric designs on this quilt, it really was great fun to put together and I'm hoping that you (the winner) will love it! I used the stripped fabric shown in the photo above to bind the quilt and also you will find it in the pillow sham as well. The quilt will be on display at Daydreams Quilt N Sew, 802 Pancheri Drive, Idaho Falls, Idaho. Be sure to drop in and say hello to Annalee and check out her wonderful shop.
