Thank you to everyone who took the time to make their own bias tape and send me pictures.  I hope you learned a lot.  And the Winner is………JANNIE!

Check out Jannie’s bias tape.  Want to know how she matched up those stripes so beautifully?  Check out her blog – Just Plain Jane Quilts for the tutorial.

Jannie – email me your mailing address and it will be on its way on Saturday!

How AWESOME is this! 

Remember a few episodes ago, I featured a quilt by Cherry that was done during Annie Smith’s Quilting Stash Classroom.  Well Annie has just emailed me and gave me a FREE seat at her next class.  I can’t participate, so I am going to GIVE IT AWAY to one of you.

The class is called “Quilting Making 101″ and begins on October 2nd.  It is an eleven week class where you will be making a sampler quilt.  This is exactly like my first quilting class – straight out of my quilting bible “Quilts, Quilts, Quilts!” – see the book store and my completed projects.  You can use your stash to make this quilt, buy new fabric or buy a kit.

With the Quilt Making 101 Sampler quilt, you will learn:

• Expert fabric selection
• The basics of quilt block layout and design
• Butted-seams for perfect joining
• 9-patch block making, assembly line style
• Sewing curves
• Basic hand appliqué
• Simple Y-seam construction
• Borders, sashing, and binding
• Basic hand quilting technique

How to Enter:

I will choose one listener/reader at random from everyone who has started a new thread on the discussion board.  To use the discussion board, click on the “login” or “register” button at the top of the screen.  Once you are registered and signed in, click on the discussion board, choose a topic, and start a thread.  (a thread is usually a question).

The winner will be chosen Saturday, September 26th after 7pm.  So have your threads started before then.

Good Luck, Everyone

Oh, Yeah – One more thing.  The winner will be required to send us PICTURES!!!!  lol
