Everything’s Coming Up Quilt Tops!

And here is mine!

I was sewing a new First Notes quilt along with all of you these past four months, and here it is! I used a Tula Pink fabric that I ice dyed as my main print and added some bold solids for the rest. I think it looks pretty amazing.

Okay, now for some important news. We still have GIVEAWAYS to talk about, plus the GRAND PRIZES!!! So please read through all this carefully.

Are you missing a block? Head to The Not So Dramatic Life and Shoppe Lovingly Lissa to purchase it for $2. We will be removing all the patterns from our shops on October 31st, so do no delay if you need one!

This week’s Sponsors and weekly Giveaway

We have two sponsors again this week. The incomparable Kid Giddy will send one pdf download of her Sew Plush Planner pattern to a Concert Goer and The Electric Quilt Company is sending a copy of Barbara Brackman’s Encyclopedia of Pieced Quilt Patterns to a U.S. Resident Concert Goer.

The Encyclopedia was our resource in finding blocks for the Quilt Concert. I have two editions of this book and they’re usually within hand’s reach whenever I am designing, and sometimes just for flipping through.

Now, if you have already posted your First Notes Flimsy on Instagram you are already entered! Just make sure you follow @kidgiddy and @theelectricquiltcomany AND that you included what country you live in.

Everyone else here are the rules…
