Giveaway Day!

It's Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Day (week) again! I meant to make something to give away, but I forgot until about two days ago. Oops!

Since I don't want to miss out on the fun, I'll give away a copy of each of my patterns instead.

My first pattern, Portrait of a Snowman, is for this adorable snowman block, which finishes at 9".
He'd be so fun to customize, wouldn't he? My pattern tester used buttons for the eyes and nose, added snowflake buttons to his hat and even gave him a bowtie! I know May isn't supposed to be snowman weather, but it did snow here again today. Not enough for a snowman though!

My second pattern is for this Happy Birthday banner, which finishes at 28 1/2" x 36". It's a quick project and adds a quilty flair to birthday decorations.
This giveaway will stay open until Friday May 16th. Anyone can enter since the patterns will be emailed to the winner, but make sure I can contact you if you win. Leave your email address in your comment if you're a no-reply commenter or I will have to get Mr. Random to pick another winner.

To enter, leave me a comment and tell me about your favourite holiday quilt. It could be one you made, one someone else made for you or just a pattern you love and hope to make someday when you finally have the time.

Don't forget to check out all the other giveaways at Sew Mama Sew!

  4. Love the snowman block! I have hoarded and pinned loads of holiday quilt patterns but never actually got around to making one yet. Hopefully this year I might get to change that with the Christmas Tree applique quilt that I started and put aside a while ago :)

  7. My sister and I made a log cabin Christmas tree last year that we used instead of a tree. It was fun and didn't take up much space at all. :)

  11. My favourite holiday quilt is one my mother-in-law made. My kids found it while we were visiting her and were quick to ask me why we didn't have any holiday blankets. Maybe someday...

  28. Well, I did make a mantel cover, but it was when I first started quilting, so it's not my best work. But I use it every year anyway. Your patterns are very cute!

  31. Very cute patterns. My favorite holiday quilt is one that my Mother-in-law gave us for our wedding. It was a beautiful antique quilt in red, white, green and gold.

  32. I would venture a guess that a Christmas tree skirt counts as a quilt. I have designed 5 of them to give both of my sons and each of my nephews. They may not appreciate them now, but I believe a few years from now, they will be grateful for the gift!
