Wednesday Giveaway – Book #5!

Version 1.0.0

The last book in our Great Book Giveaway is extra special – WELCOME TO THE NORTH POLE! This book has been out-of-print for a little over two years. Judy found this last copy when she was doing a stock count of all our books. The random number selector is going to make our winner, Maribeth Smith, very happy!

I updated the instructions with additional photos and added the pattern for Dinner @ Santa’s table runner in the EBook version, WELCOME BACK TO THE NORTH POLE. You can shop for that version 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!

Wednesday Giveaway – Book 4!

This week I’m giving away another out-of-print book — our first how-to-hand applique book. Linda and I self-published this book in 1998. It’s a classic :-).

And the winner is …. Rebecca Schnekenburger!

(Last week’s giveaway book, Stars in the Garden, is available as a download pattern. Click here to shop.)

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!

Wednesday Giveaway – Book #3 goes to Judy Fine!

We’ve reached the halfway point in our Great Book Giveaway—and this week’s book is a beauty! It’s filled with colorful photos, pull-out patterns, and everything you need to make Stars in the Garden.

This vibrant quilt, inspired by vintage appliqué, finishes at 70″ x 90″. Until now, it’s only been available as a downloadable pattern, so I’m extra excited that Judy will get to enjoy it in book form!

(And if you didn’t win last week’s book, Applique with Attitude, is available as a download pattern. Shop for it 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!

Wednesday Giveaway – Book #2

Week Two of our Great Book Giveaway. This week, our lucky winner, fisherbff, will receive the last available Applique with Attitude book from Piece O’ Cake Designs. (It is still available as an ebook download.)

Remember, if you didn’t win last week’s book, All Around the Neighborhood is available as a download pattern. Shop for it by clicking here.

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

Join me for 4 full days of applique fun!

Doesn’t that sound wonderful? Come spend some time with me in Paducah at the AQS SEAM RETREAT—four relaxing days away from home, all about hand applique. I’ll teach you all the techniques you need (and then some!) to make my brand-new wall quilt, Christmas Cottage Cheer.

This cute quilt has never been published before. It’s made in two layers: the inner globe is appliqued onto a square, and then a floral layer is appliqued on a larger square. Once both layers are complete, we trim them up and stitch the circular center in place. Gold circles make it fancy :-).

This class is great for all skill levels—even if you’re brand new to applique. If you’re interested, click here. And if you have any questions at all, feel free to email me at becky.pieceocake@gmail.com.

Just so you know, my days of in-person teaching are winding down. So if taking a class together in person is on your bucket list, now’s the time to jump in. I’d love to see you there!

Wednesday Giveaway – Book #1

Most of you know I have been cleaning out my stash and reorganizing fabrics, tools, threads and now books. In the process I found five books that are all out-of-print and decided to pass them on to lucky winners! We are starting off with All Around the Neighborhood – the Book. The random number generator actually chose the 1st comment! Congrats to TheGranChris!!

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