This lovely embroidery kit (just in time to make for Christmas decor) will go to Stephanie – this week’s winner!
This kit, like all our embroidery kits from Cozy Blue, includes everything you need to complete the project, including pre-printed fabric, thread, needle and hoop. And lots of instructions!

This week’s giveaway, a tube of #10 size Straw Needles from Jeana Kimball’s Foxglove Cottage goes to Roberta Adams. These needles (longer than regular sharp/applique needles) have a slightly thicker shank, keeping it from bending while stitching and accommodating a larger eye for easier threading. It’s a great needle for those trying out straw needles for the first time.
You can find out more about these and see all the different needles we carry by clicking HERE.

This week’s winner, Linda, will get a great tool for machine sewing on any project – Sewing Edge Vinyl Strips!
These vinyl strips replace masking tape and moleskin with a repositionable stop that doesn’t leave sticky residue on the bed of the machine. The thickness creates an edge that guides the fabric in front of the foot.
You can watch a video showing you how to use these strips, as well as information on other machine sewing tools available on our website by clicking here!

The random number generator chose Lynn J. from Wisconsin and she will receive the nice grouping of small items that are mostly from Moda. This week we gave away 2 small notebooks, some acrylic templates, a sewing charm bracelet and (not from Moda) a bag of wooden owl buttons!

Remember the Nosegay Quilt-Along? I made a hand pieced block and it is going to Janet, along with the templates to make more hand pieced blocks. And, just for grins, I’m including the taped-together hand applique pattern :-).

I bought the pattern shortly after it came out and then set it aside. When we were having some remodeling done in 2013 and I was relegated to the upstairs, I decided to unearth the pattern and fabric I’d picked out earlier and started to sew. I made the signature block first (next time I’ll make it last), and worked on the baskets every single day while the crew was downstairs sawing, pounding and painting. It kept me sane. I’d been doing needle turn appliqué for a long time, but this is the first project that I made using laminated templates and vinyl overlays. I loved it!
I worked on Fresh Picked Posies long after the remodeling was done, in-between other projects and it was my pick up and go retreat project, which was great because I didn’t have to pack a sewing machine. I finally finished the top, had it quilted and showed the quilt last spring in the Quilter’s Anonymous quilt show in Seattle. That show got me connected with the Garden of Quilts people in Lehi UT, who invited me to teach. I taught… and Fresh Picked Posies, along with 3 of my other quilts, was hung in the Garden of Quilts show at Ashton Botanical Gardens.
