Blackwing discontinued the clutch notebooks last year. We only have one of the black set of 3 with ruled pages and I have decided to let it go as a very special Wednesday Giveaway! And Cassy L is the Winner!
We do still have a few of the 602 grey clutch sets with blank pages. You can shop for these and all of the current Blackwing products by clicking here.
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!
Our Giveaway this week, the Deluxe Corner Trimmer and Hand Piecing Tool, goes to Karen in Ohio! It can be used in hand and machine piecing to mark the dot where adjacent seam lines meet at a corner and is perfect to cut away the dog ears on four different acute angle corners and square corners and confirm the size of all the angles including the outside angle on 60 degree and 45 degree diamonds.

The happy cheerful colors of these silicone straws remind us that spring is on the way! This week’s winner, Beth T, will receive a pack of Jubilee Straws! They include a special brush, to make them truly “reusable.”

I’m giving away two of my handmade Vintage Needle Caddies this week. Cleaning out my studio is a win for me when I turn loose of duplicate items, since it makes room for new tools, etc. And it’s a win for Roberta & Laura, since I’m passing on those duplicate items to our winners.
If you are sadly not one of the winners this week, you can still have one of these cute needle caddies by clicking here to download the free template with instructions and making your own. If you want a little extra help, the link for the Time Out video that featured the “how-to” for these caddies is on the same page.

Sometimes when we humans at Piece O’ Cake make a mistake, it ends up being a win for you, our subscribers, as is the case today. Lorna meant to order two complete Golden Slumbers Hand Embroidery Kits but instead ordered just the Iron-on pattern. So Sharon Palmer & “Flyawayjil” are receiving the Iron-on pattern for Golden Slumbers. Iron the design onto your own fabric and choose your own thread colors to make this truly your project. Judy thinks this would be a perfect block in a baby quilt. Maybe that will spark more ideas! (If you want to shop for the full kit that includes thread, needle, hoop and pre-printed fabric, click here.)

Join 12 expert quilting instructors (I’m not in this event but will be in one in the future) for a vibrant multi-class event on the most powerful (and intimidating) tool in the quilter’s toolkit: color.
One of the most interesting things I’ve found is that no matter how much you know about color, you can always learn more. This is a great opportunity to hear what 12 experienced teachers have to offer on the subject.
Starting with a keynote with color master, designer, and author, Jean Wells, you’ll explore simple color vocabulary, actionable techniques, and begin to assess your own journey as an artist.
Then you’ll have access to join twelve 40-minute workshops to learn color theory, the history of color in art, creating custom color palettes, stash-busting piecing tips, explore ombré quilt designs, master designing with prints, and more. The instructors’ approaches to color simplifies all things color into mindful practices that you can apply right away.
The live event is Thursday, March 30th at 9 am (Pacific Time)
The recording with be available April 2nd with no expiration
