Quilt Block of the Month "Eight Hands Around"

Hello lovelies! 

January is almost over but I did not forget about our "Quilt Block of The Month". I am having so much fun creating new content in my YouTube Chanel as well as my blog, it is really fun and relaxing to make them. This time around, I decided to create an "Eight Hands Around Quilt Block" in Youtube and think it's one of my favorites so far. I want to show you how simple and fun it is! Just click on the picture below to watch how to make it:

Did you like the "giveaway surprise" I have at the end of the video? Yaaayyy! Last month, I had some little technical issues with the software I use for the giveaways. But fear not everyone, this time around all you need to enter is to leave a comment in the comment section on the YouTube video after watching to enter and that's it! You can write about the video, the fabrics, or anything you want to tell me! Preview of the giveaway down below:

Good luck everyone!

The Traffic Jam Quilt

Hello everyone! 

I wanted to make this blog post for a while now and  I can finally write a little about this awesome quilt! Every time I see a quilt or any project made with Indie Folk, I get so emotional and very happy. My mother really loved this collection and I designed Indie with her by my side ♥♥

This stunning "Traffic Jam" quilt was created by the Quilt Design Duo which is made up of the collective talents of Moira de Carvhalo and Jenny Woodward. These two brilliant ladies just launched Quilt Design Duo where you will be able to find useful tutorials, quilt patterns and so much more!

How awesome is that! It's a perfect collaboration website with two skilled quilters. Speaking of quilters and quilts, you can download the "Traffic Jam" quilt pattern here. And what about the fabrics? I am pretty sure you would want to make the exact replica of this quilt, so look no further and visit the Design Duo's Instagram for a chance to win this Fat Quarter bundle of Indie Folk fabrics!

Good luck makers and let's get our sewin' on with this awesome giveaway hosted by  Quilt Design Duo

Bundle of Joy Giveaway

Hello lovelies!

Today I have a special treat for all of you! I'm going to give you a chance to win a colorful bundle of my fabrics, or what I like to call your very own 'bundle of joy.'

As most of you know, I'm inspired by all the beauty that surrounds me. All those pretty little everyday things are what stimulate me to design. From gorgeous magazine clippings to flowers blooming in my garden, these simple beauties are what have sparked my fabric collections.

Once I'm done designing, I can't wait until the final production comes in and I have all my fabrics in hand to start making all sorts of goodies, from dresses and shirts, to handbags and quilts!

This is the part that amazes me the most. My very own fabrics, that were created from all the beautiful inspiration surrounding me, have now become their own form of inspiration for you to create!

Whenever I see a bundle of fabrics with a fascinating color story, my imagination starts working, thinking of quilts, table runners, clothing... just about anything! I just love the fact that inspiration is in the form of anything and everything. It just brings me great joy!

When it came time to selecting a set of colors that would become part of my new line of threads for Aurifil, I found myself staring at this one bundle that just seemed SO right! The colors were the right mix of deep and rich, with bright and intense. I instantly started to select the colors for the box set that I would later name 'Bold Beauty.'

My sweet dears, this is the bundle that inspired the 'Bold Beauty' box set for Aurifil! Not only do I have a 12 spool set of this gorgeous array of colors, but now I have a new mini spool collection.

 This bundle inspired me to select my thread colors. What does this bundle inspire you to make?

To enter the giveaway, leave a comment below with your answer to, "what does this bundle inspire you to make?" Two lucky winners will win this fat quarter bundle of joy!

For a second chance to win you can enter on my FaceBook page.

Contest ends Friday, the 13th, and winners will be announced Monday, the 16th.

Good luck!
