One year ago I posted my first ever blog post. I can not believe that 132 posts later I am still going… and absolutely loving it. To celebrate this milestone, and to say thanks to you all for your kinds words and support over the last 12 months, I thought I would put together a package of my favorite things as a giveaway to one lucky reader.
First up is my favorite quilting book.. Sunday Morning Quilts by Cheryl Atkins and Amanda Jean Nyberg. I love so many of the quilts and patterns in this book.
This is the book that introduced me to low volume quilts… and inspired this log cabin quilt in particular.
Also is in the package is an introduction kit for making 1 inch hexagons – a packet of 25 plastic templates and a packet of 2 1/2 inch squares of the gorgeous Waterfront Park by Violet Craft.
This packet will help you make a start on your own English Paper Pieced (EPP) crazy… I warn you it is addictive. This part of the giveaway is in honor of my loud obnoxious hexagon work in progress.
And what prize package would be complete without some fabric. First up is a selection of 10 fat quarters. Every scrap quilter knows the value of the fat quarter, it is one of the staples of our stash and the best way to get more variety and colour in your collection.
There is of course some of my stash staples… Lizzy House’s “Pearl Bracelets”, a little “Mirror Ball” by Michael Miller and some beloved black and white fabric.
And in honor of my recent Zakka flower quilt I am also including a Denyse Schmidt fat quarter collection. I choose my favorite fabric from this release, I just love the blue floral in this selection.
Someone will win all this and more…
So how do I enter I hear you ask… just leave a comment on this post. One lucky winner will be picked next Sunday (27th October) and the prize will be dispatched to which ever part of the world the winner is from.

Happy blogiversay! I think I’ve been following you from the beginning. You are probably my fav blogger. You seem to be fearless and will try most anything! I would go on and on, but broke my wrist this morning and am typing one handed.
Cindy. I am sorry to hear about your wrist. I tore ligaments in my thumb this year, so I feel your pain. It was an annoying inconvenience for about 3 months.
1. You’ve only been blogging for a year? I thought you had been blogging for foreverrrrr when I found your blog (my first and favorite!).
2. CONGRATS!!!
3. This giveaway is like my dream giveaway. Did you call me and ask all my favs? I guess I have to win.
In all seriousness, so glad to have found your blog! You have been such an inspiration!!!!

I love your blog and would love to be doing the same one day. Quilting is a relatively new hobby for me and I post on tumblr for a bit of feedback. Nice to see a fellow Aussie living it up in the U S and showing them some of our laid back style. Would love the chance to win. Will be enjoying your blog until the next anniversary! Congratulations 🙂
