About Becky Goldsmith

I am a quilt designer/teacher/author, a wife/mother/grandmother, and certified yoga instructor who is searching for balance, strength, and happiness in all things.

Wednesday Giveaway

Allison Church Bird is this week’s winner! She will receive a wonderful 2-Step Pencil Sharpener which creates a perfect point using a two-step sharpening process. Sharpen the wood in the first step and then sharpen the graphite core to a long, fine point in step 2. The clear lid opens for cleaning. The sharpener comes with two replacement blades and an automatic brake that prevents over-sharpening.

I’ll be back with another Giveaway next Wednesday. Until then you can shop for all sorts of sewing notions, books, and other fun stuff at pieceocake.com!

Kim Jasko sent this photo of a quilt she recently finished (for an anniversary milestone) using what she calls ‘Becky’s Birds’, designs from our book, ‘My Whimsical Quilt Garden‘. Truth be told, the birds are more Linda’s birds than mine :-).

Kim plans on displaying her quilt every May.

The base design is from Amanda Murphy. I think this is an excellent mash-up of two different quilt patterns. Well done, Kim, and thank you for sharing!

Wednesday Giveaway

Gayle W. S. is this week’s giveaway winner! She will receive a set of three #12 hand-dyed Painters Pearl cotton thread packs. This thread now comes on spools and these are the last of the packs I have that are skeins.

This is Anne Schulz’s Magican Unicorn quilt. She used a colorful print in the background instead of appliqueing the rainbow stripes. The quilt is really cute done that way!

Anne did all the quilting on her domestic machine. Thank you Anne—and Pat, who sent in the photo with Anne’s permission—for sharing your quilt with us. Well done!

Wednesday Giveaway

This week’s winner is quiltingtrail (don’t have a name, just an email handle). She (or he!) will receive a dandy 2-in-1 Needle Threader. It has two sizes of sturdy wire threaders that are inserted into a single handle. The handle protects the wires making it easy to carry in your sewing kit.

I’ll be back with another Giveaway next Wednesday. Until then you can shop for all sorts of sewing notions, books, and other fun stuff at pieceocake.com!

From Pam Washburn who said: “Just wanted to show you that I finally completed the Unicorn quilt. I bought the pattern from you when you came to the Wichita quilt guild. My granddaughter Harper turned 6 this May and she loved the quilt. Thanks so much.”

I love it and am so happy that you shared it with us! Your granddaughter will treasure this quilt all her life. Well done!
