Three finishes - lol well I cut one of the finishes in two :) Baby boy tube quilt is quilted, panto if Outside In by Barbara Becker. Chevron Quilt, panto is Drunken Feathers by Barbara Becker as well. Table runner is custom quilted by yours truly :) I started doing the quilt this way and knew it would take me forever. The quilt started out being 50x80, no isn't that an odd size? Well take 14 inches off and you have a nice little table runner. All of them have Hobbs 80/20 batting, Glide on top, Bottom Line in the bobbin. So here's a few pictures and then at the end details on the fun giveaway. Did I tell you this was post 300? Holy Smokes, never thought I had that much to say :) Alright I couldn't wait until Friday, I'm so EXCITED - the *waiting to be quilted* list is empty and it's post 300!! And don't forget to check out the linky parties on the side bar, there's more than one there for everyone, such great inspiration all around us.

So now if you look at my list to the right you will see there are no quilts on the "waiting to be quilted" list. This is the first time that has EVER happened.
I wanted to do something special for post 300, something besides cleaning up my "waiting to be quilted" list. So a give away it is, yippee!! I'm giving away quilting! or a back prize of fabric.
- I'll do up to a queen size quilt of any of the pantos listed below, or
- an allover feather which I do freehand (up to queen size) or
- a custom baby size quilt, 45x50 or less or
- a fat quarter bundle from the Fat Quarter Shop, cute little polka dots - 15 FQ bundle
How does that sound? Now, I know there are some followers that might not be that interested in the quilting for one reason or another, so I've got a back up prize of fabric. If you win and your international, you get fabric!
If you choose quilting, you will need to ship me your quilt, backing and batting. I have Hobbs 80/20 batting on hand, you can save on batting if you want to use that. Make sure your backing is at least 3 inches bigger on all sides (6 inches total) and make sure it's square. Let me know your thread color preference. I use Glide there on top and Bottom Line in the bobbin. I"ll take pictures of the thread on the quilt so you can see before I start. I'll ship it back to you when finished. Or if you live in the McHenry IL area,we can meet somewhere convenient.
What do you have to do? Just leave me a comment. It would be great if you were a follower but really not required. I'm just that excited about having 300 posts!! I'll pick a winner on 1/31. Easy enough right? Ok here's the choices for quilting. You can search my blog for the pantos, I've got example of all of them with the exception of the first one. I've never actually used it. Looks like it would be great on a guys quilt.

ReplyDeleteI have a huge pile of quilts needing quilting so getting some help would be wonderful!
Thanks for the chance. Those chevrons are adorable!
Sue this is the world's best giveaway! I would LOVE to have one of my quilts quilted by you and I definitely have a stack waiting :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on 300 posts and super congrats on the 'waiting to be quilted' pile no longer existing!

ReplyDeletethanks for this chance to actually own some.
Congrats on your 300th post! What an accomplishment! I love your quilting and the pantos you have above! Thanks for the opportunity.
ReplyDeleteLike you I just completed my quilting pile. I have the midnight at the oasis quilt to put together and then I am making Christmas gifts. Thank you so much for the chance to win such a lovely set of fabrics.
ReplyDeleteWell, heck, I was going to comment anyway! So you did an all over on the chevron quilt? I have one and I'm unsure what to do - I stick with all over, but there's so much blank space in the chevrons! Or maybe I can just send it to you. ;)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on reaching such a milestone! I love the Just Hanging quilt, it's so bright and happy! Who wouldn't love to have a quilt quilted by you, I know I would. Thanks for the generous giveaway. By the way, I do follow you via GFC because I love your posts.
ReplyDeleteYour quilting is breathtaking. You are quilting for others now correct? Should I go through Easy or contact you directly? Fabricdiva54 at Gmail dot com.

ReplyDeleteSue, you are so generous! I would be honored to have you quilt one of my quilts. As a total beginner on the long arm, I look at your detailed quilting and feel nothing but inadequate. I do follow you by having a link on my blog to yours. You honor me by commenting on my blog. Congratulations on your 300th post!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 300 posts!! Love the quilting detail on your table runner. Thanks for the sweet (and very generous) giveaway!
ReplyDeleteSo generous! Wish my quilts in waiting pile were empty, How does that feel?
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 300 posts. Winning your quilting would be amazing. I'm a follower with Bloglovin'. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteCongrats!!! You do beautiful work!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing the quilting you do, it is so lovely. Too bad I am in the UK, to benefit from the quilting prize - but those dots do Loki cute .....
ReplyDeleteSomeone will be very, very happy because you do a wonderful job!
ReplyDeleteI love your quilting, just beautiful. Thanks
ReplyDeleteI so love your quilting, beautiful, great work!

ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your 300th post! I look forward to many more.
Congratulations on 300 posts. Love your quilting, have been reading your blog forever, really enjoy looking at your finished quilts!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on getting your 'to be quilted' pile gone, that's awesome!! Every time I think I can get mine gone, I get bored with the quilting and need to piece!! Since I am a longarmer I would choose fabric of course, LOL Love your quilting design on your chevron runner.
ReplyDeleteSue, I love reading your blog. I grew up in that area, but now live in MN. Your quilting is wonderful, right from your very first longarm quilts! Thanks for the generous giveaway!
ReplyDeleteCongrats Sue! I like how you alternated your quilting on the chevron! I'm going to have to try that. I've been a GFC for awhile...thanks for the chance to win the fabric pack (Since I long-arm already and am getting better and better thanks to you inspirations like in this post.)
ReplyDeleteYour quilts are absolutely beautiful.. I just hope I get as good as you one day..
ReplyDeleteI ahve not finished a single thing since my long arm quilter quit her business to open a quilt shop. Your quilting is magnificent and I would so love to win!
ReplyDeleteI just finished a chevron quilt and sent it off to be quilted. It's fun to see what you've done with the quilting! I would be HONORED to have you quilt a quilt for me :)
ReplyDeletewww.sercraftychick.blogspot.com
Your table runner popped up on my pinterest feed, but it linked to your etsy and not your blog (and I didn't find a link from your etsy). Anyway, I just adore the quilting you did! The swirls look gorgeous. I am a new follow now that I've found you! I love to quilt my own quilts, though your quilting is lovely--so I guess, should I win, I'd go for the bundle. :-)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on 300! It's a fun journey, isn't it? Lovely prize choices!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on #300 and on the beautiful quilting you do! I love reading your blog and seeing the terrific work you do. Great prize ideas, I'd love to win.
ReplyDeleteYour quilts are beautiful and so professionally done too. Thanks for the chance to win and congratulations on the 300th post. I'm a quilter too so if I were to win I would love the fat quarter bundle.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to be all caught up on my quilting. I think the stash of quilts is in a bottomless pit. I so want your fat quarter bundle. I've been wanting that for a while but won't give it up and buy it (like I really NEED it)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeleteI wish I was able to enter for the quilting - your work is fabulous!!! but I'm in the UK!
Yippee!! Love reaching milestones and love give-aways! I shall never be caught up on my projects since for every finish, I have at least seven new ideas, which I always have to try out right away! Your idea of a quilting give-away is brilliant!
ReplyDeleteThanks,
