Beat the Winter Blues Blog Hop Party


Blog Hop Party with Give-Aways
Happy Friday, y'all!  I am glad the weekend is here!  First things first.  Michelle at Quilter's Gallery is hosting another Blog Hop.  I am super excited because I have never participated in one before.  I actually saw this late last weekend.  That was good.  The bad thing was I worked 12 hour day shifts all this week.  No time to go buy something special.  So, I was forced to shop at Mary-Mart.  This is what my sister and my children call my personal stash of everything, not just fabric.  For you wonderful people I stuck to the fabric.

Having Mary-Mart is a handy way to beat the winter blues.  We seem to lose electricity several times a year.   Mary-Mart is well stocked with food items for such times.  Want a craft project to beat those winter blues?  Mary-Mart is well supplied with yarn, scrap-booking supplies, paints and stains for woodworking and of course, fabric.  Fabric is what you lovely folks are interested in.

So, here is my giveaway.  I have three "prizes".  First up is a complete 67"x78" quilt kit including the pattern. I think there are somewhere around 7 1/2 yards in this kit. I am adding a spool of thread from Connecting threads.



This is a lovely collection and hopefully someone will enjoy it. The next giveaway is two different Moda precuts.  The first is honey bun from Me and My Sister.  The second is a a charm pack called Blessings.  I know they are both older collections (because they are from my stash!) but they are both great collections.





This third giveaway is going to be a bit of a surprise.  I keep planning to make some I-spy quilts.  I have collected fabrics for that.  Here is the top of the tote they are in.

A side view.

This tote is fairly substantial. I am offering up a charm collection of I-spay fabrics.  I promise no fewer than 60 pieces and there may be more once I start cutting. There is everything in there from food to fishing to cartoons to sewing and cooking.

So, how do you win?  I will keep it simple.  Be a follower and (I would rather have you follow because you want to, not because I "bought you)  make a comment.  Remember if you are a no-reply blogger to leave an email where I can contact you. I rarely suffer from winter blues but I am getting cabin fever this winter.  I have flower seedlings under grow lights in my basement.  I can't wait to be outside!  That will last until my asthma kicks in and I come back in to sew again.  I love each and every season when it starts and I am glad to see the next one ushered in when it ends. So,  my question is, "What is your favorite season?"

Please let me know if you have no interest in one of my giveaways and I will take that into account if at all possible.  I will ship internationally though that may throw my little post office for a loop. The earliest possible ship date for my schedule is March 19.  So, I will keep this open until March 17 at midnight EST.

Please be sure to go back to the Quilting Gallery and visit as many links as possible.  Good luck and and happy hopping!

I am off to Bloomington for the Heritage Quilt Show.  Maybe I will be seeing some of you there!

Keep Stitchin'!

Mary

  2. Well, you know I'm already a follower because I want to be!! Hmm...wow...hard to pick one season as I enjoy each of them. Winter would be my all time favorite, though. The smell of wood smoke, comfort foods for dinners, warm and cozy inside when it's cold and snowy outside....and of course, QUILTS! Yes, winter is my favorite!!

  3. My favorite season is fall. Michigan fall! I grew up there and cureent in VA because of my hubby's job. Good news is he is retiring next year and we will finally be able to move back. I haven't had a really fall in years. But home is where the navy sends you. I love those I Spy quilts. They are adorable, I would love to make one someday.
    Thanks for the giveaway!

  4. I live in a small, remote community north of Lake Superior in Canada and the colder wintery months can last for 7 or 8 months... we are due for spring soon, but the last weather report said there's a snow storm on the way! At least our days are longer and spring is hopeful soon! Thanks for your amazing giveaway prizes for this Beat the Winter Blues hop!! ps I started following you cuz I wanna!!

  16. I think Mary-Mart is a fabulous store! I would love any of these prizes. I'll keep my fingers crossed for the quilt kit, I can already think of someone who would love it.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Great giveaways!! My favourite season is right now. Winter with spring coming on. But northern spring, not down south spring. Spring where it is still snowy and cold at night but the sun shines brilliantly during the day and travel in the bush is at its best.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Thank you for the great giveaway options. I'd love to win #2, the pre-cuts. My favorite season is spring because everything is green & flowery and the weather is mild. Fall is my second favorite. I'm not a big fan of winter & summer because I don't like temperature extremes.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Thanks for lovely giveaways, my favourites are numbers 2 and 3. My favourite season is spring when the flowers are coming out and it begins to get lighter in the morning and evenings again.

  22. My favourite season is a toss up between fall and spring because I love them both. Thank you for the chance to win, I would love to receive any one of your giveaways. I also just became a follower - you have a lot of interesting things to share.

    ReplyDelete
  26. A follower :) thanks for your fun giveaways!

    ReplyDelete
  27. What a wonderful giveaway!!! I think my favorite season is probably fall for the beautiful leaves and the risp air. I am appreciating Spring more since I moved to the NE part of the US - it is no longer a harbinger of 100 degree days with 99% humidity, so I can enjoy it more :-). Thanks again for the chance to win (that honey bun is gorgeous and I am so jealous of your scraps!)

    ReplyDelete
  28. Thanks for the great giveaways. The only thing I'd be interested in is the honey bun. I really can only use spring colors right now after this horrendous winter we've been having.

    ReplyDelete
  29. You are so generous! What an awesome giveaway. I live in Nova Scotia and today is sunny and a few degrees above freezing. My fingers are crossed to win. Thanks.

  30. My favourite season is fall. Love the colours and the smells and it's also my birthday around that time.
    I'm interested in the honey bun/charm pack and the I-Spy fabrics, because shipping the quilt kit to Germany would be way too expensive ;)

    Thanks for the chance to win!

  31. I'm a sucker for fall, I love the smells, the color, everything! And who can resist Brown County Indiana in the fall. Waving at you from Martinsville, wishing I could go to the quilt show. Thanks for a chance to win some lovely fabrics! Can't wait to see pics from your Bloomington adventure!

  54. Great idea to shop the Mary-Mart. My children loved when I had a "store" and let them shop from it at home. They had to get all their chores done and be good for me to open my store. I'm a new Follower. I join the Blog Hops to get more Followers. Some days it seems I'm just writing blogs for myself. I Blog for Comments. :) I love when a shop has a bin of fabrics and some bags nearby to fill. The Scraps sound like lots of FUN! I have two new grandbabies coming and an I Spy would be a great baby quilt.

  55. Wow, this post is pleasant, my sister is

  89. I think Mary-Mart has some wonderful things. Late spring is my all time favorite. Mostly I love warm weather but not HOT weather. Thanks for the fun.

    ReplyDelete
  90. Spring has always been my favorite season. Now that I live in the South, I would LOVE to experience a nice brisk Autumn, with leaves changing colors, and pumpkins on everyone's porches! We have leaf lettuce started outside in one of our window boxes, and our chives and parsley are flourishing. Once summer comes, EVERY plant dies, except the herbs, and they get alot of "extra help" in the form of daily watering etc.

    ReplyDelete
  91. I feel the same way about a season, so glad that it is here and then eagerly awaiting the next after a while. My favorite is autumn, the colors are so great and I like the cooler weather without getting freezing cold. All of your giveaways are great, thanks for the chance to win.

  139. What a gorgeous giveaway. I love autumn (fall), the colours, the weather and the fact that my hayfever seems to not be as severe.

  140. I love Halloween. It was my Mother's birthday and I always made her a homemade card, usually out of fabric scraps. and the weather has a bit of cold, but not too muuch, so you can go outside in sweaters and wool. You have very pretty fabrics. I especially like the quilt set. My husband would cuddle up in that. He doesn't like too flowery stuff in our house, so I keep that in my sewing room or as gifts.

  142. My favorite season here in Florida is Spring. I love the fresh new spring green color of the leaves and the rich fuchsias and reds of the Azaleas that are blooming all around. In Spring it's easy to why Florida was named after all the flowers! Thanks for such generous giveaway! I've become a new follower.

  148. Which season do I like best - hard to choose - Spring - because everything is new again - Fall - nice to find some cooler weather. Live in the South so rarely do we have much winter - so the Blues are not a issue here..
    I personally would be thrilled to win any of the wonderful prizes your offering...
    What a wonderful giveaway..
    Thanks for the chance.

  150. great giveaway. thanks for a chance to win one of your prizes.
    It is a toss up between spring and fall. But I think spring is a favorite because I love the flowers that bloom and I am ready to get out in the garden.

  151. Those are wonderful prizes. I'm a new follower because I want to be. I follow all quilters, though, hoping they will drop a fat quarter here or a bit of thread there......No, really, following is my way of saying "keep up the good work!". I love the changes in the seasons. Life in California, years ago, didn't offer that and I longed for it. So I'm in the north, now, Washington state, USA, where the changes are in motion all the time. If you don't like the weather, just wait a while and it will change. Come over to Prairie Cottage Corner and visit, will you please? We'll chat about stuff!
