I've spent the last few months dyeing and making jewelry for Spring and Summer quilt shows with very little time to quilt. When Marcia mentioned the idea of May for Me I knew it was just what I needed. I have set aside a good portion of May to finish some of my works in progress. First on the list is the quilting on my Night and Day Quilt. I also plan to put some of the designs ideas that have been on my mind down on paper. I would like to have a good portion of my "Animal Kingdom" challenge quilt underway by month end too.
To Celebrate May for Me, Marcia and I are both hosting giveaways on our blogs this week.
Six winners will be chosen. You will have 3 chances to win here and 3 chances to win on Marcia's blog.
Double and triple your chances to win by posting about the giveaway on your blog, twittering or sharing on Facebook. Leave a separate comment each time you share information about these giveaways.
The Prizes:
#1 - A set of 3 May for Me note cards:
If you have ordered from my Dye Candy shop you may have received one of these note cards to thank you for your order. Marcia sells this design (featuring Dye Candy fabrics) along with a few others in her ETSY shop.
#2 -A copy of Marcia's Easy to Sew Quilt Pattern:
Two of these quilt tops are in my works in progress stash. This pattern is so much fun, fast and a great way to start on the road to piecing quilts in a free form manner. (You can purchase this pattern here.)
#3 - An item valued at $18.00 from my Dye Candy Shop or a $25.00 discount good towards the purchase in my Dye Candy Shop:
Update: Due to the 24 hour outage on Blogger's site I am extending the closing date for the giveaway to 5:00 pm Sunday Evening May 15th.
Wishing you good luck!
Chris and Marcia
