I got a UPS box today and there were TWO quilts returned from Quilt it today and two magazines!
The first one is a winding ways quilt!
I used my Go! cutter for this one
Close up of the quilting
I had extra pieces too so I made some pot holders
Here’s how I assembled the blocks
A bit “tricky’ to deal with curves but using the Go! cutter, it has notches and if you just pin a bunch it’ll be okay 🙂
I think you saw a post earlier about how I made a pin cushion too from left over pieces
And here’s the yummy fabrics from Connecting threads!
The 2nd Quilt is this fun Thomas the Train Quilt
I quilted train tracks all over it, though I did a squiggly line for the tracks instead of straight lines
here’s the fabrics from VIP fabrics
And the blocks laid out and ready to sew
I also sent them my kids Thomas the train tracks to use for the pictures
And I made a string tie bag- using Jenni Baker’s tutorial
Here’s the pictures from the magazine!!
Want a little giveaway??
I got two magazines, so I’m keeping one and will give the other one away!
(May/June 2013)
I also have a few scraps leftover from the Winding ways quilt, some odd shaped scraps and then my daughter wanted to play with the Go! cutter one day, so she cut out some cats- sorry no interfacing.
If you want a copy of this magazine and these scraps.
Be a follower and comment below
(no hurt feelings if you write that you just want the magazine!)
I’ll pick a winner friday.

Hiya Bea!!! Lovely Quilts!!! I fell in love with the Rhapsody in Red too. My grandson loved Thomas when he was little (he's 19 now). I would love to win the magazine, and the scraps would be put to good use too. Thank you for having the giveaway. Blessed be, hugs!!!pamspretties57 at gmail dot com

Of course I'd love to win the magazine but since you know that curves and I don't get along, I'd let you pass the scraps on to someone else.
