No, I don't always win things. But yes, I do sign up to win. And you can't win if you don't play. So they say.
Anyway, a couple of weeks ago Pam Buda at Heartspun Quilts was having a give away that I signed up for. The first few winners were getting some of her scraps and the others were able to choose two of the patterns she designed. I was lucky enough to win two of her patterns. (Yes, what I really wanted was the scraps. But I'm thrilled with the patterns.)
These are the two I selected. I have always wanted to make this type of house quilt and she says this pattern is a simple one. Making the roof has scared me away thus far. The Suffragette pattern on the right intrigued me. I haven't figured out from looking at the picture how it is put together so I picked that one so I could find out. That and the fact that it is red/white/blue helped in my decision I'm sure.
I stumbled on Pam Buda's blog when I was looking for a hexie tutorial. She has a good one. You can find the first of her steps for hexies here. She is also getting ready to start a mystery quilt. The fabric requirements are here. This is one I might try doing myself.
Anyway, it is a good blog to follow. So check it out when you've got the time.
