Win a copy of Fresh Fabric Treats & A Fat Quarter Pack


Hey There!!!

I am so excited to be a part of the new Moda Bake Shop book, Fresh Fabric Treats! I wish I could share with you my fun project, but I can't yet... but I hope you will like it, I was so excited that I pulled it off!!


The other thing that I am so excited about is that I get to share it with you!!! The awesome folks at Moda Fabrics have generously offered to contribute to a very generous giveaway for my readers today!

There are 2 contests going on at the same time, the first one... Moda is donating for me to give away:

- A copy of Fresh Fabric Treats!!  

AND

-My favorite Moda pre cut- which just so happens to be a Fat Quarter pack!! (are you surprised, aren't I always sewing with fat quarters?)... What's even more exciting is that it will be in a yet to be named fabric line!! So a fun surprise for you!!

The second prize is pretty awesome too!

You know how I mentioned the "Progressive Dinner" going on right now? Well if you go around and leave a comment on EACH blog post, you will be entered to win:
- a copy of Fresh Fabric Treats
AND
-One of EACH Moda Precuts!! Yeah, that one charm pack, one fat quarter pack... you get the idea!

So here are the rules!

Leave a separate comment for each item you do:

-Leave  a comment here, say hi, let me know what project you'd love to see on Moda Bake Shop.
-Blog or Tweet about this giveaway and leave a link in your post (Facebook doesn't count as they do not want bloggers to use them as a forum for giveaways...)
-Follow or Subscribe to my blog, www.polkadotchair.com

A few other things:

-The book doesn't come out until May, so that's when your prize will arrive
-You MUST leave a way for me to contact you in your comment.  
-If I can't get a hold of you within 48 hrs a different winner will be chosen.


Giveaway Ends Friday January 28th at midnight Eastern Time.

Okay, so it's possible I already commented. I frequently get pulled away from the computer mid-post thanks to my four little blessings at home. I would double check, but don't have time to go through thousands of posts. =) I hope I can still qualify for the giveaway. If not, I look forward to enjoying your blog in the future.

Thanks for the chance to win... personally I am a sucker for bags and totes, I would love to see some ideas for making them out of pre-cuts, like a boat tote using a Jelly Roll.

Somebody mentioned more boy stuff and I couldn't agree more. I am a girly girl but I have 3 boys. Love all the tutorials!

I love all of the different bag "recipes." I like to make different purses and such. They are so much fun and usually a pretty quick and easy project. And using all the Moda pre cuts makes it beautiful!

Bettina said...

I do like the bake shop- it's great inspiration for a beginner like me- I would also love to see large quilts, but also accessory ideas (like pillow shams etc) to go with a quilt
Thanks for the fabulous giveaway,

Little Spool said...

I think I have to agree with some others: some boy projects! I love to sew pretty things, but with 3 (possibly 4) boys, I have a hard time coming up with things I can do for them.

Melissa, I'm probably deserving of a 'booby prize', having signed on to receive all the comments to your blog (over 1500)... with your help, I finally fixed the issue... I had to quite following both you and the comments... I've since reinstated the blog (but not the comments... THANK YOU!

My original comment:

I just became a follower... one of the things I'm so enjoying about 'dinner' is the opportunity to explore the creativity of all of the chefs whose works of art I've enjoyed on MBS... congratulations on being published, whether for the first or one-hundred-and-first time... I'm hoping that being a 'follower' enables you to contact me, because I don't see anyone using more specific identification and I don't at this point have a blog... oh, well...

I am not new to quilting but I am still a beginner. I love pre cuts its easier for me to deal with the little bit of fabric instead of piles of it. Although I would love a pile of fabric!
