Thank you all for your lovely comments! Congrats to Becky Good, this week’s winner :-).
Before I get to the Wednesday Giveaway, I must mention that I am teaching a Color Class at Happiness Is… Quilting in McKinney, TX, on Saturday April 22. There are a few spots left and I know that at least some of you live in the Dallas area. This is a great no-sew class. Everyone learns a lot and leaves happy and more confident about color. Call the shop at 972-542-8839 for more info.
I have a print-on-demand copy of Appliqué Outside the Lines that I am happy to give to this week’s winner. This is one of my favorite books! It was published in 2009 and and is out of print, but it is still available as an ebook (click here).
Here are a few quilts from this book:

I’ll use a random number generator to choose a winner Thursday morning, April 13, 2017. Good luck!


I have nearly all of your books but don’t have this on. Would love to win it !

Oh how I wish I would have asked Becky to show this stitch to me in a recent class I took with her. But I am confused. Is Appliqué With Attitude a different book from Appliqué Outside the lines? Do they both show the stitch with Perle cotton? Thank you for each Wednesday give away.

Just read your newsletter as well. I did not know that Presencia made perle cotton and it looks lovely. As does your collection of colors. That’s what I’ve always loved about your work – the colors!

Love the designs in this book. I have a collection of the Presencia threads but have only used them with wool applique. I need to get an ‘attitude’ and try them with cotton.
