Judy Walahoski is this week’s winner and she will receive a package of 3/4″ Applique Pins from Little House that are fine and have a small glass head. They are a little bit flexible but not bendy which helps them to lay flat against your applique. I like them! if you are not Judy, you can find them 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!

Sharon Rutledge sent me this lovely picture of her Hand Sewing Adventure quilt. I love it so much! She says:

I’m very happy I started this project and happier that I finished it too. It provided me with many relaxing moments of creativity in front of the television. Thank you for the opportunity.

I love the setting for the photo, with the light shining through the quilt. I love the mix of colors, with pops of yellow and green to balance the blues and purples. I love the darker corners on the EPP blocks… it’s all lovely together. Well done, Sharon, and thank you for sharing!

Sharon also mentioned how relaxing the hand sewing was… all of these hand sewn quilt are a physical manifestation of the time spent calmly sewing. It all makes me smile :-).

You think you know how to use EPP Specialty Papers, but wait! There’s more!

Watch last week’s Time Out episode to learn a variety of creative ways to can use these papers.

Gayle Shumaker is this week’s very lucky winner! Congrats to Gayle!

She will receive a 4 3/4″ Patchwork scissor made by KAI that is very sharp and comes with a hard plastic sheath. It is serrated, which means that one blade is smooth and the other has little serrations that control the fabric as you cut. Most people find the grip to be very comfortable. If you are not Gayle and would like to shop for these scissors, click here.
