Some of you have noticed that I changed my blog header a couple of months ago. I've added information about my classes here in addition to a new tab for Free Patterns. I'll be adding to that in the coming weeks with some links to the tutorials I've posted here on the blog. You may also see I've freshened up the side bar and added both a search feature and a labels feature.
Jenna from q.a.designs helped with the design work and the installation. She's the best!
I have a little give-away just to thank you all for reading and commenting! Have you seen these pin cushions? I found the perfect dishes to make them! And no I'm not sending you the dish to make one - I'm making one for you. You can even tell me what color you want. I'll also send you this cute bundle from Fabric Nosherie - mostly Curios Nature by Parson Gray.
So head on over and leave a comment - I'll draw a winner on Wednesday! Thanks for being part of my quilty life!!

ReplyDeleteJean M.
Glad you're back! (Even though you were only gone a few hours!) That's a darling pincushion -- but I wouldn't think to choose a color scheme because YOU are a wizard with colors so I'd prefer a Hyacinth original. ;)
ReplyDeleteOh! I would love teal! I'm so excited about the free tutorials tab!! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI have several of those dishes because I do a lot of beadwork...might have to consider repurposing one or two of them because I love that pincushion! Thank you for the chance to win some fabrics. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat look for the blog and what a fun pincushion! It would look awesome in any color.
ReplyDeleteGreat new look! Thanks for the giveaway. ksanderson@hotmail.ca
ReplyDeleteI love the new blog look, including search option. Very clean & fresh looking. Thanks for the chance in your giveaway. I would be happy with any colour way, but do have a thing at the moment for "citrus" colours - yellow, lime, orange.
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaway! Can I join in from the UK please!
ReplyDeleteGreat fabrics!!
I really enjoy your blog! I've been hoarding some modern meadow for a couple of years now ~ I think it will look lovely worked up in your garden gate! Thanks for the giveaway ~ that pincushion is super cute!
ReplyDeleteHow fun. I really like those pin cushions. Havent seen the dishes around before. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteI too, am dying to know your source for the palettes! I love the blog, with or without, the changes.
ReplyDeleteLove the pin cushions and love the fabric. I'd be honored to win the drawing.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to have all your info in one place! Love the fabric!
ReplyDeleteThe blog looks great Cindy!
ReplyDeleteIt's looking great! What a fun giveaway!
ReplyDeleteLove the blog. Pincushions cute too!
ReplyDeleteA very contemporary blog. I would love a pink pincushion.
ReplyDeleteThose pincushions are so cute! Your blog is one of my favorite stops. All your finishes are divine!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun idea for a giveaway. Glad the transition went fairly smoothly. Love your blog.
ReplyDeleteWell that's just too cute! I would love to win one in any color but lime green is my current favorite...
ReplyDeleteSo fun! A pincushion like that would be wonderful for sewing machine needles. I'm fond of muted cool colors... thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteIf I am fortunate to win the giveaway, I'd like you to surprise me with your choice of fabric and color combination;-)
ReplyDeleteHappy colors for a pincushion is what I would pick. Happy is always good don't you think? I first discovered your site when I saw your free pattern mentioned on someone else's site. Don't remember whose now, but yours got bookmarked! I met you one time...... you and some friends had visited Tammy Tadd Designs in Sycamore. We discovered that we carried some of your books. It was great fun to meet someone "famous"!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful bundle! If I were the lucky winner, I would want a very modern pincusion.
ReplyDeleteCute dishes. Love the whatsit tray in the center of the pincushion!
ReplyDeleteThe pincushion is so cute. Just yesterday my daughter was asking for a needle and it would have been a lot easier to direct her to one in the pin cushion, if it had separate areas like this one. If I win, I would love pink and black.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute pincushion Cindy! You're so creative :-)
ReplyDeleteLove the pincushion, I check you site a couple of times a week, keeps in touch since I am way down in Arkansas now. Good luck in all. CAB
ReplyDeleteLove your new look.
ReplyDeleteCute pincushion.I'll take it in any color.
Love your blog. Any color would suit me and thanks for the give-way.
