Lots and lots and lots of giveaways! Including one here!
First, I want to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the Quilting Gallery! For five years they’ve been bringing quilter’s together with knowledge, tutorials, inspiration, contests, and fun!
Next, before I get into what I’m giving away I wanted to tell you a bit about about what you can expect to read about on my blog if you decide to follow along (which I hope you do)!
Project QUILTING – a fun quilting challenge that gets posted every other week. Season 4 will be starting in less than a month and it’s never too late to join in the fun! To read more about what it is check out ‘What is Project QUILTING’? You can see the quilts that were made for the recent off season challenge, Happy Holidays here.
Quilt Alongs – Last year I hosted my very first quilt along – Home Sweet Home. It was a success and I had a lot of fun hosting and participating in it! The quilt along for 2013 is already all scheduled and we’re itching to go. This year the theme is ‘My Favorite Block Quilt Along’. I hope you decide to join in on the quilt along fun!
Block Tutorials – Whenever other bloggers are doing quilt along’s I’m always happy to create a block for them. When this happens it is also shared on my block. I recently did a block tutorial for the Glorious Autumn Block Party at the Quilting Gallery. You can see my block HERE and there’s still time to enter my giveaway!
Adventures in Quilting – I fairly recently purchased a short arm quilting machine on a frame. I am sharing with my readers the lessons I learn along my ‘learning to quilt’ journey.
Random Project – I’m constantly making something! I do my best to share with you what I’m working on, how it’s going, and things I’ve learned.
My Family & Orchard – I have three beautiful little girls and an amazing husband. I share stories about what’s going on with my family here because they are so influential in all that I do. We also own and operate an apple orchard here in Poynette, WI. I sometimes post about what’s going on at my orchard here but mostly you can find those updates on my blog, Lapacek’s Orchard.
