100 Block Blog Post Winners

Happy Monday to everyone!  Especially to these lucky winners!

First to Pat for her comment:

 "I really like how your block sets into a quilt. I search everywhere for good designs that I can integrate into my quilting. I find inspiration in nature and landscapes; anything, really. Thanks sew much for this chance to win. :-D

 She wins the Quiltmaker's 100 Block magazine

Second to PJB for her comment: 

 "I love your block, especially after seeing it in a layout!"

 She wins a copy of my newest book, Diamond Traditions.

I was so excited about all the comments that everyone made and the amount of people that commented!  This is the most I've ever had comment so I am thrilled.  Because of this, I am going to add 2 more giveaways.  I had over 300 comments so I thought I'd pick another winner and there would be 3 giveaways for 300 people, that way you had a better chance to win, so, the third winner is:

Stephanie for her comment:

 "I get my inspiration from all kinds of things! My daughter is a big one for sure! Thanks for the chance!"

 She is getting a signed copy of the magazine directly from me.   (Stephanie, please email me so I can get your address to send you copy info@opengatequilts.com)

For the special creative category winner, I chose Karen for her blog post:

 "The road to the Open Gate palace is paved with 100 blocks. A purple colorway leads to the Royal Garden where the princess sits admiring her quilted garden. She is beautiful with her Tiara of Diamonds, Traditional and Block." 

 She had me giggling and for this she gets a signed copy of my new book!  (Karen, please email me so I can get your address to send your book, info@opengatequilts.com)

Thanks for everyone for participating and hope to see everyone again soon!

Happy Friday!  Today is my day to join in the Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks Blog Tour .  Yes, that means that I have a block included in the magazine!  The tour has been going on all week so make sure that you check out the other designers that are involved in the tour.   Here is the cover of the magazine: It's so great that they have printed 7 - 100 Block Magazines!  I am also so proud to say that I have been in all 7 issues!  My block is called Tiara...do you sense a theme these days?  I have a book coming up next week (squee!) called Diamond Traditions and I called this block Tiara...do you think I'm a princess?!  My husband sure thinks so!  Anyway, here is my block: I used the purple colorway of my fabric with Maywood Studio, Royal Gardens .  I love the way this block has a center that you can fussy-cut or use an interested print inside.  It was fun to make and there are so many possibilities to make a quilt with it.  Here are some ideas: Simple on point with s

Welcome! It is so nice to once again be included in the magazine and the blog tour!  I love to hear from everyone and hope that you will comment for a chance to win a copy of the magazine plus much more! The block that is included in the Quiltmaker 100 Block Volume 5 is called Diamond Eyes.  It may not be a surprise to some of you that one of my favorite elements in a block and quilts as well, is the diamond shape.  I think it adds beauty to the quilts and some different elements.  Here is my block: Since my husband has been ill and I have been working on getting ready for Market, I decided to do some give-aways instead of a project.  I hope that you understand and although I don't have alot of time, I can do some great give-aways.  If you make a comment, you will be entered to win one of the following: First, the magazine is giving away a copy of the Quiltmaker 100 Blocks Volume 5.
