As a small way of saying THANK YOU to everyone who stops by to read this blog and all the members of the Quilting on a Budget Yahoo group, I'm having a Giveaway!WHAT YOU CAN WIN:
Generously donated by Marguerita McManus (author of the other book I'm giving away And the wonderful budget quilting table I've blogged about!), is the book QUILTING FOR THE MEN IN YOUR LIFE: 24 Quilted Projects to fit his Style. From table toppers for his den, to pillow and quilts for his bedroom, these beautiful projects will really appeal to the men on your gift list!
Next, is Marguerita's own wonderful quilting book titled CRAZY SHORTCUT QUILTS: Quilt as You Go and Finish in Half the Time
Includes instructions for 15 projects including wall art, pillows, queen-sized quilt, fabric valances and accent throws. More than 175 color photos. GREAT methods for using all those decorative stitches on your machine. Really a fabulous book and one you'll turn to often for new quick quilt ideas.
And my oh my... what else can I give away that would provide some fun or ease your budget.... let's see... Let's add in this one year subscription to FAMILY FUN MAGAZINE! I subscribe to this magazine for ideas for crafts and games to play with my grandson when he's here for babysitting days. It's packed with kid-friendly recipes, craft instructions and more. Whether you're a parent, grandparent or just love kids, this is a great magazine.
And one more giveaway.... that's right... that's FOUR items in this giveaway! This one is just for YOU. It's a $25.00 Amazo
n.com gift certificate.

Love the tips and hints. Love the give away, my grown son is waiting for his quilt.!
Love the tips and hints. Your give away are great,..my fingers are crossed and I am hoping....
Wow did I ever find a lot of info on your blog. I'm looking forward to being more awake so that I can read the article on organizing your sewing room.
One thing is for sure, If I won the book on quilts for boys or men that would help me to clean up my sewing stash. It's hard to find ideas for guy quilts.
I'll be back to this blog often.
Thanks.
