We received a sample of Moda’s new Mini Charm Project – the French Pocket – and are passing it along to this week’s lucky winner – JaNelle Erickson! The project includes the pattern, instructions, 42 1″ hexagon papers and a pack of 42 2.5″ squares to create a standalone “pocket” (small holdall or cross body bag).

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!

Remember a couple of months ago, when I told you about cleaning out my studio? This week’s giveaway winner, Pat Bell, will receive another result of that – two handmade pin cushion rings!

Aren’t they adorable? (Unfortunately I have a lot of adorable notions and must let at least a few of them go.)

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!

Robins, cardinals, orioles, nuthatches, and other favorite feathered friends from the back yard are all part of this week’s giveaway – the Backyard Birds book.

Included in the pattern pack are 12 easy appliqué blocks to mix and match, or sew them all to make a 52” x 65” quilt with appliqué borders. These 12″ x 12″ finished size blocks are bursting with fresh colors and are easy enough to be fun for quilters of all levels.

You can see more details about the blocks and suggested notions by clicking here and then clicking on the Backyard Books on the books page in our store. (When we received the latest order of books from the publisher, I noticed that this one’s cover was not pristine, hence, the giveaway.)
