St. Patty’s Day Blog Hop Party
11:31 PM |
Edit Post
I’m really excited to be a part of the Quilting Gallery’s big St. Patty’s Day Blog Hop Party. If this is your first time here I just want to welcome you to my blog! I’ll just give you a quick overview of the major things that happen on here: (and yes – I will ship internationally…)
The FINAL Challenge is POSTED! Ziggin and Zaggin
I’m also currently running a really fun Quilt Along where each block has to have either a tree, a house, or both incorporated into the block design. 16 block tutorials will be posted by different quilters by the time this quilt along is complete. 12 are already up but it wouldn’t take too long to catch up - AND in the end you’ll have an adorable, whimsical house and tree quilt to cherish.
Not only am I hosting a quilt along on my blog but I have become addicted with working on other quilt alongs as well. You get to follow along as my blocks grow into quilts and find out what I had trouble with, great new tricks I’ve learned, and see what colors I decide to go with.
Be sure to subscribe to my newsletter, Like me on Facebook, follow my boards on pinterest and follow me on twitter - so you don’t miss out on all the fun that happens on KimsCraftyApple.
Required for ENTRY: All you have to do is leave me a comment telling me which one of the fabric and textile art items in my etsy shop is your favorite: Click HERE Be sure to include your email in your comment so I can notify you of your prize! If I can't get a hold of you I will redraw!
If you want to be entered more than once – these are some bonus entry options:
That’s it – just let me know you’re favorite piece of mine for your entry. If you really want my prize and are going for bonus entries – there are five opportunities for you!
***OPEN to everyone – I will ship internationally!****
The winner will be selected randomly on Sunday, March 25th.
Be sure to click on the link to see all the other AMAZING giveaways being offered with this party! http://quiltinggallery.com/quilters-fun/quilters-blog-hop-party/
