Giving Thanks! Quilter's Blog Hop Party - Hexies By Halves Pattern GIVEaway



I'm excited to be part of the Quilter's Blog Hop Party hosted by Michele of the Quilter's Gallery.
Blog Hop Party with Give-Aways

I'm offering two lucky winners a copy of my Hexies by Halves PDF Quilt Pattern.  I love this pattern because it's so fast and easy to put together.  The pattern has been thoroughly tested and successfully completed by beginning quilters.

Be sure to stop by and check out all the other great giveaways going on here.

If you've got a quilt on your to-do list for Christmas, this is definitely one you can get done in a weekend, and the pattern includes instructions from start to finish...everything from fabric selection all the way through binding your quilt.

It's also got instructions for some alternate backings that are fun enough they could be a top themselves.

If anyone wants to purchase the pattern, you can use the code "GIVETHANKS20" FOR 20% off the purchase of the Hexies by Halves Pattern in my Shop.  If your purchase the pattern during the giveaway and then are one of the winners, I'll refund your purchase.

You might also be interested in joining me for a free Nativity in the Trees Quilt-Along going on now.

    For Christmas I have a few more stockings to make and then I'm starting (and hopefully finishing) and special quilt for my husband. Anything beyond that I'd like to get some pot holders, oven mitts, and matching placemats done for my own kitchen.
