Happy Thursday everyone!  I’ve been trying to patiently wait for Pip-monster to take her nap so I could have more than 2 minutes at a time on the computer to share with you a *BONUS Project QUILTING Challenge we’re offering this year.

I’m so excited that we’re teaming up with The Fat Quarter Shop on this adventure!!!! (I may be using a lot of exclamation points in this post…I’m really excited about it!).

Step 1 of the BONUS Challenge:  Head over to the Fat Quarter Shop and purchase your very own ‘Project QUILTING Bundle by Kim Lapacek of Persimon Dreams’.  (EEEK!!! SO EXCITED!)  The only way you can do this challenge is if you use fabrics from this bundle so it’s very important that you don’t wait too long to get it…they should go fast!

The Prize

Of course there is a prize!  Everyone that enters the BONUS Project QUILTING Challenge will have their name put in a hat and one of my three girls will randomly pick a winner for:

$75 to use at the Fat Quarter Shop!

Uhmmm…yes, this is going to be a fun BONUS challenge!

Just think of this challenge as ‘making it to Fashion Week’.  I can’t wait to see what you all come up with!  I’ve already placed an order for two bundles (one for me and one for Diane – her birthday gift! Yup – I’m terrible at secrets!)   Have fun! Haven’t heard of Project QUILTLING?  See what it’s all about HERE.
