Strip Therapy Finish and Friday Giveaway


This is the quilt that I had started from a Bali Pop called Parfait (to be released in October) and the Strip Therapy 9 book.  I love how it turned out!

Now, on to why you are all really here.  A giveaway.  Before I get to todays giveaway, I want to share with you the winner of last weeks giveaway.  The winner is BB Butts Diapers.  You can find her blog here.  For this week's giveaway, I have some more batik fabric.  


Eight fat quarters of batik.  I am seriously destashing, and these have got to go.  For a chance to win leave me a comment telling which is your favourite blog to visit is, other than mine of course.  lol.  

This week I reached 200 followers.  Wahooooooo! To celebrate I am sending three fat quarters of batiks to follower #200 which is legato1958.  She blogs over at susiessunroom.blogspot.com.

One more little picture and I'm out of here!


This weeks hexagon, done in batiks of course.  I promise, soon I will post a picture of a quilt not made of batiks.

  17. There is a long list of blogs that I enjoy but I'll just mention one. Confessions of a Fabric Addict. I am inspired by the vast amount of work that Sarah and her quilting helpers accomplish and by the fact that it is to help others who are facing difficult circumstances.
