Kathy Schmitz Pattern Giveaway #1

I'm so excited! Do you do embroidery? Do you want to learn to do embroidery? Do you want something for a project to do in your easy chair while you watch television or to do in the car on road trips? Well, Kathy Schmitz, the fabulous fabric and pattern designer for Moda, has done a pattern for every month of the year that includes embroidery and quilting! AND the best part is that she sent me some patterns to do a GIVEAWAY for you! I've decided to give 3 of these patterns at a time so that there will be more winners! So here's what you can win in Pattern Giveaway #1:

First, the pattern for May! And (this is so creative) see the little bees? The iron-on bees are in the pattern so that when you have finished, you can iron the little bees onto the embroidery piece!

Second is the pattern for June! I love this and the little blue eggs are in with the pattern. You not only get the embroidery pattern, you get the pattern to make it a quilt! Although, of course, you can make a pillow or anything with these patterns!

This one is a toss-up for my favorite! The July pattern with a little flag to iron on. It would be so much fun to have a special place in your home to a little quilt for every month! Aren't they sweet? And if you don't know how to do embroidery, there are instructions and illustrations in the patterns. Kathy makes it really easy to learn. And if these colors are not your favorites, you can do these little quilts in any colors. I just love them!

AND, when you enter this giveaway, I'll give you an EXTRA entry to our April Giveaway for tone-on-tone dot fabrics! Exciting, right?

The Kathy Schmitz Pattern Giveaway #1 will end April 28th and I'll announce the winner April 29th. Then we will do a giveaway for the patterns for the next 3 months! Fun!
