Back to School Giveaway!

This giveaway is now closed - Thanks for playing! 

Quilting Gallery is hosting another fabulous giveaway so get your hopping shoes on!



If you can hop in heels, you get extra points. As for me, I don't even own a pair of heels except for the heels on my boots. If I had to hop in heels...well, it would not be pretty. I can't even walk in them.

So I hope you've all cleared your calendar and precooked in order to make extra time because these giveaway parties always gather a big crowd. Lots of goodies to be had and new blogs to discover. The list of participating blogs can be found here.

I never know what to give away during these parties, but I want to give away something good...something I would want and I want some of these:


So I am giving away 1 package (50 clips) of these little red binding clips

And for a second giveaway I have 7 - 1/2 yd cuts of Amy Butler's Daisy Chain:

I bought these thinking I would use them in my Gypsy quilt, but I ended up not using them because the pretty design would get lost in the little pieces I needed to cut.

The first number I draw will have their choice between the two and the second number I draw will get the one the first winner does not choose. I will gladly ship internationally. So please be sure and let me know which is your preference in your comment.

I love replying to comments, but due to the number, I may not be able to do that, but thank you for taking the time to chime in!

No hoops to jump through. Save your energy for blog hopping. Just let me know what you are currently reading. I am a voracious reader and always love discovering new authors and titles.

This giveaway will close on September 3 at midnight EST and I will announce the winners on the morning of the 4th.

Thank you for taking the time to chime in on my giveaway, good luck and a big thanks to Quilting Gallery! If you hop over there using the link, there will be a list on Sunday with all the participants.

I'm currently reading a history of sewing machines (a free book from the Smithsonian for Kindle, or available in HTML), because we all know how I really, really, love making quilts on vintage machines!

Beautiful fabrics--and I've never tried the clips.

Carol said...

Those clips are my absolute favorite notion! Love those things!

Denise :) said...

What am I reading ... Okay: When Hope Blooms (for blog review), Women's Ministry in the 21st Century, Rules of Engagement--Preparing for Your Role in the Spiritual Battle (for blog review), and on my Kindle, Tea with Emma and A Single Thread (library book). And that's not counting my pile of magazines! LOL! I adore reading, too!! :)

I am almost finished a book called Bright Shiny Morning by James Frey. I had tried reading one of his autobiographical books and couldn't make my way through it, but this one, a novel, has been quite interesting. It is about Los Angeles and people living there.

yorkie mom said...

Just finished reading 29 Gifts: How a Month of Giving Can Change Your Life. Very inspirational. Would love to win the binding clips as I am always poking my poor fingers on pins. Thanks for a chance.

Scrapatches said...

Thanks, Karin, for the great giveaways and for pointing me in the direction of the Blog Hop Party Giveaway. Had I found this a little sooner, I would have jumped in and found something to giveaway, too. Maybe next time.

In the meantime, I hope to get lucky and win. Whenever I am given a choice, I always choose fabric. Love the colors in the Amy Butler line. Those little clips look very handy, too.

I am currently re-reading the Marie Bostwick "Cobbled Court Quilters" series ... http://mariebostwick.com/

I always read a good book more than once ... :) Pat

Gwen said...

I have just begun to read The House on the Strand by Daphne du Maurier. It's pretty interesting so far. I don't even know where it came from-- just showed up at my house, so I thought... hmm... must be meant for me to read! ;-)

Anonymous said...

Currently reading "Exit Wounds" by JA Jance...a favorite author. I also read a lot of Mariah Stewart. Would love to win either of your two items.17 AIXA

Mommarock said...

I think either would be fantastic, but I would have to choose the clips first as I have never seen anything like them, and would love to!

ThreadCatcher said...

Both are great prizes. I would pick the fabric fisrt as I need fabric for my next project. The clips would come in handy too as I am binding a quilt right now. I just finished the Bourne Identity. It was a bit confusing, but good enough to finish. Thanks for the chance at your giveaway.

Unknown said...

Great giveaway! I just started reading a book about Abraham Lincoln. Not sure it will be finished though

Jeanne said...

I am not reading anything right now. I love any fabric by Amy Butler. Thanks for the giveaway.

Have just started reading A Discovery Of Witches by Deborah Harkness. Apparently my work mates say it is good.

I am so happy to have found your blog - I've been reading it for a few weeks now, and admire your life, lifestyle and craft.

I just finished reading 2 books that I highly recommend -
1. Seating Arrangements by Maggie Shipstead, and 2. Behind the Beautiful Forevers (a book about slumlife in Mumbai, India). This is the 1 book/1 community for my city this year - the university freshmen are supposed to read it, and citizens of our community read it, too. The author will be speaking ar various university and local venues at the beginning of next week.

giddy99 said...

I'm reading Totto-chan, a paperback I found at a thrift store on vacation in Kalispell, MT. It's definitely amusing!

I was eyeing those WonderClips at the store today, but didn't buy them. I wanted to, but I refrained, somehow...

Amy said...

Well, most of my reading is done online with blogs like yours... that's all the reading my two girls let me do these days!

Richard Healey said...

I have never seen those clips before they look cool. Love the material thanks for joining blog hop.

I love those clips and love the fabric more!! You are a sweetie to 'share' your stash!

Shelly said...

OK, so if I win your give-away and you win mine, we're just trading notions, right? I don't have any of those clips. But I'd really prefer to have the fabric. I have just the pattern in mind that needs big chunks like that! And I'm a tidget embarrassed to admit this, but I'm currently reading MacBeth (yes, the Shakespeare one) . . .

Lyn said...

I have friends that love those clips. I would like to own some too.I have been reading Robyn Carr series.

Diane said...

My book club just read SAVING CEE CEE HONEYCUTT and I really enjoyed it. Can't wait to get my hands on the new Phillipa Gregory novel now. I bought those clips in a pack of ten and would LOVE to have more, they are awesome, the fabric is gorgeous too though!

Lynn M said...

I'm actually looking for a new book to read as well. The last book I read was a dance with dragons. I waited 6 years for it.

Cath said...

Oh my, it is going to be difficult to choose out of those two amazing gifts. I am reading the 4th book in Diana Gabaldin's series about a woman who travels back in time to the 1700's. I loved the first book in the series and couldn't put it down but the latest one has taken me a year to get through!

I laughed about your comments about heals. I have 2 pairs of medium heals. They were both bought for different daughters' weddings and both worn one time. LOL I hate them and feel so clumsy when I walk. I am reading Promise Me a Rainbow on my Kindle. Since my hubby gave me a Kindle for Christmas last year, I have read so many wonderful books. I love my Kindle almost as much as my sewing machine. LOL

I am for the first time reading, Walden by Henry David Thoreau. I have wanted to read this for years, and now, I simply do not quite get why this is a classic. The man seems a bit stuck up to me, the way he puts farmers down. But I will read it through and then make a final call.

Good luck with your giveaway.
blessings, jill

WeaslerQuilts said...

Right now I am reading a book called The House of the Scorpion by Nancy Farmer. I've read it before, and I really enjoyed it, so I'm reading it again. It's a book that was technically written for the middle school aged crowd, but I think adults will understand it better. I had to read it in a children's lit class, and I'm so glad that I was introduced to such a wonderful author! :)

Oh, and I've been wanting some wonder clips for a little while lately. You have such a wonderful giveaway offered!

Bouts Choisis said...

Oh my! I must confess it's ages since I read a book - too busy sewing and blogging! I do like to listen to audio books while at my sewing machine though. I think the last time I turned the pages of a book was for the final Harry Potter story!

Leah said...

I am re-reading Bram Stoker's Dracula. The Giver by Lois Lowry, and Inheritance by Christopher Poalini. I have always been a reader of more than one book at a time. Same goes for my quilting habits. I've never just had one project in the works.

Staci said...

Right now I'm reading 'Last Scene Alive' by Charlaine Harris. I actually can't decide if I really like this series or not, even though this is the 7th book.

Lovely prizes! You'll make a couple of someone's day with your giveaway!

I would pick those clips. Right now I am reading one of Karen harper's books, Down to the Bone. It is from a series of books of mysteries in the Ohio Amish area. I have read many of her books and enjoyed them all.

Shirley said...

I'd like the clips. I've been trying to find them here. I've been trying to read two old romances that I'm going to sell on Wednesday. I don't know if I'll get them read.

Catskill Quilter said...

Both giveaways have wonderful, generous prizes! I think the Amy Butler just barely edged out the clips - I would be happy with either. I just finished a mystery, Thyme of Death, by Susan Wittig Albert. It was very entertaining!

JLVerde said...

This is a great giveaway!

Currently I'm reading the latest issue of a magazine I subscribe too. I haven't been reading much lately.

Lyanna L. said...

Lisa said...

Wow, I am definitely lacking in the reading department, I have so many of my quilting books and a natural and vitamin supplement book for raw food diets for dogs since I am currently training our new 8 wk old St Bernard. I have been coveting those clips for a long time and would love to get my hands on them!! Thanks so much for the opportunity and your generosity!

I'm reading "Uglies" and I just finished "Divergent," which was excellent if you are into YA fiction.

Currently reading a Jane Green novel....a summer read.
I would love the half yard. It's, love the fabric.

little apple tally said...

Recently finished 2 books - Killing Lincoln for nonfiction and True Sisters by Sandy Dallas for fiction. Both were not easy reads, as both covered difficult times. But both covered topics of great importance I think. True Sisters is set in the hand cart Mormon Trail experience. Oh my!

I love those fabric pieces. Such wonderful subtle colors.

Samantha said...

I'm just finishing up "The Return of the King" the last in the Lord of the Ring series. I'm 44 years old and I hadn't read them yet! I've enjoyed them quite a bit. :D Thanks for a chance at one of these wonderful prizes. I'm not sure which I would pick!

Loris said...

You have a very fun post here :-) Your life at the end of a dirt road sounds blessed. And your giveaway items look wonderful. I like the fabric but would love to try out those little clips.
As to reading, I'm finishing up a study of I Peter and Jude and getting ready to study James in a Beth Moore study. I also discovered a new (to me) author this year...Marie Bostwick. I have finished the 5 books she has in her Cobbled Court series (loved them) and am reading Fields of Gold..her first book now. I highly recommend her!
Thanks for your sweet giveaway...be sure to check out mine :-) I'm off to read more of your posts.

What an awesome giveaway! I love that fabric. :)

I am currently reading Evelina by Frances Burney. I have no idea how the book originally came to be on my to-read list but I am thoroughly enjoying it! I'm going to read another book by the author, and if it's as good as the first, I have a new favorite author.

Happy reading and quilting!
