All you have to do is comment on that post!
Good Luck
It’s looking lovely! I’ve been kind of working all day, but to be honest, I’ve also been watching a lot of BBC. My goodness I love some British people! They make amazing TV! Hit and Miss… truly amazing! Not for all people to watch, but it’s kind of awesome! Anyways, back to the quilt. I’ve been piecing the quilt on and off all day. I love the way the blue blends together. At first, I was a bit worried that the blues were all too different, but I like the way it ended up looking. Hopefully I’ll have at least a third of the top pieced tonight, but I won’t hold my breath.
So, as you all know this week I am doing a Gift Card Giveaway! I want to this once a month. My question is, should I do a 5 dollar one every week, or do a 20 dollar one every month? If I do one every week, people can get a pattern, or save it until they win another one and get a couple patterns, or should I just do a 20 dollar one once a month so people can not only get patterns, but use it towards a quilt. What do you guys and gals think?
Here is what I have for Dual Star. I’m a little bummed I have to pack it up and out it away for the next couple of days while I work on this Zelda commission, but I think absence will make the heart grow fonder! I’m sure that I will just jump right back into it! I really love this turquoise fabric, so I’m using it in my Zelda commission as well. Wish me luck, because I have an awful lot of things to do this week! Oh, and I start my new job! 😉
Okay, so I’ve had to pack up Dual Star, because I’ve gotten a new commission. It’s going to be a queen size Zelda quilt. On the order form he selected blue, so here are the shades of blue for the background. I have everything going from a medium blue to navy. I think it will all blend very well! The bird and the Triforce are going to be gold, and I think it will contrast nicely against the blue. Wish me luck!
I started to lay out all for the pieces so I can sew them together! This is the longest process of all, but soon I will have about a quarter of the quilt top done, and then I have to wrap it up and put it a box for now. I just sold another quilt and I have to start work on that!
So last night I started my next quilting project. I’m already in love with the way the background it shaping up. Now just to add the bursts of color! I’m so in love with it! I decided to use all different browns and tans as I think it adds some major texture! Fingers crossed it turns out okay!
15 Dollar Etsy Gift Card Giveaway! That’s correct! I’m giving away a 15 dollar gift card to my Etsy Shop. To enter all you have to do to enter the drawing is comment on this post. I will be picking the winner Thursday Evening at 6pm. You can use it for patterns or towards a quilt in my Etsy shop!

So everyone remembers Frozen Star. Well this is kind of like that, but different. Instead of one star, it’s going to be two. The background if going to be tan and brown. I’m not sure if I’m going to make both stars the same color or make each star a different color. What do you guys think? I’m either going to do both stars in turquoise, or one purple and one turquoise.
I did it! It is complete and ready to be mailed out tomorrow! I’m in love with it! It makes me miss living in Minnesota a little! Not that I’m a football fan or anything, but it just reminds me of Minnesota. I’m super happy I went with gold thread. It really makes the sashing pop!
