It feels like a giveaway day to me! I have one bright colorstory jelly roll to give away, compliments of Robert Kaufman. If you would like to win, let me know where you are from and what you are up to today. Here's an example for you: I'm Amanda Jean from Wisconsin. Today I'm going to start quilting my blue quilt. I have a sick boy at home (he has a cold, poor thing) and I'm listening to pandora, hoping my two little ones don't argue too much. Sounds lovely doesn't it? ;) Actually, the sun is shining, which helps immensely.
Please, one comment per person. Include your email address in case I need to contact you! I'll pick a winner sometime on Friday.

My name is Anggi Wakefield and I am from Vancouver, WA.
I have been fighting a headache for over 40 days and haven't been as productive as I would like. But, having a headache makes it hard to think, ya know. I just returned home from the doctor and am going to try an new prescription and am hopeful it should help by the end of the week. Now, my creative juices feel like they can begin to flow again. I am excited to pick up the three baby quilts I have started, the two baby sweaters I am crocheting, finish up the purse I am making, and start the diaper bag I have been dying to make.
Thanks for considering me.

Hi,
my name is Julia and I'm from Berlin, Germany. I spent my day with dog-sitting and procrastinating to learn for my final exam wich is only one month and one day away (by planning another quilt). On the quilty side: I'm going to continue cutting the pieces for a quilt for my best friend who's leaving for Australia in November...
I'd love to win this gorgeous little bundle of color - always wanted to make my own paintbox quilt...and the colors are like a box of crayons :).
Thank you & Robert Kaufman company for sharing!

I am Aleisha from South Carolina. I am working all day today, 9-7, then go home, make supper and probably the gym.
Thanks for the great giveaway!
I'm Kama from Texas and today I am trying to survive with 2 boys under 2 (one turns 2 on Saturday and the other is 8 months old). We went to a Bible study this morning with a friend then came home to have lunch. Now they are down for naps and I'm going to fix the binding for the quilt I'm making for my nephew who is to arrive soon. Then maybe we'll go to the gym before Dad gets home or skip the gym and just fix dinner! Who knows!
I'm Karen from Pullman, WA. I'm home sick with a cold today. I plan to spend time on the couch with a movie, knitting and hand applique. While I'd rather not be sick, it's a good excuse to pamper myself a little!
I'm Annie from Cambridge,UK. I spent this morning blogging my latest quilt and doing some online work for the Open University. This afternoon I made a bustle skirt from rust-dyed fabric. It's now evening here and I'm putting my 2 boys to bed and then going to a meeting at the school.
Hi! I'm JulieAnn. I'm living in the DC area now. Today I went for a jog with the baby and am trying to get her down for her second nap (it's not going so well). If she goes down, I'll work on binding her quilt... (I'm a little late - she's 9 months old!). I'm definitely enjoying the crispness in the air :)
Im Dana from the U.K Today I have just finished my first ever quilt and have just blogged about it. I'm feeling happy as this has been something I've always wanted to try and now I think I have the quilting bug!
Hi, I'm Cameron and I'm from Texas. Today, I'm doing 3 different projects for classes that are due tomorrow. Two are for my Publication Layout and Design class. I have to design my own personal logo, letterhead, business card, and envelope. For my New Media class, I have a short report due tomorrow. Also, my Dad is coming to visit this weekend so I have to fit cleaning the apartment into my schedule as well. Wish me luck.
I'm Rachel from Wisconsin! It is hot and humid after a week of fall weather. I just got home from a morning out and am chilling a little before the three boys take naps. Then I'll either do a little sewing, or cleaning so I can sew tonight.

Hi Amanda Jean, I'm Sally from Connecticut. I'm working - phooey - but thinking about my Fat Quarterly quiltalong and my ORBC quiltalong quilts (they're right..over...there and I can't touch them, it's HARD to work from home!).

I have a quilt for my daughter, a quilt for a friend, 3 mug rugs, 2 christmas stockings and a matching quilt all being worked on today...I hope to have them all finished by the end of October.

My name is Juliet,
I haven't quilted yet:
Today my babe is sick,
So this will just be quick.
My table is piled high,
With material that I
Would love to chop and sew,
To quilt and then to show.
But quilters near and far,
And Amanda the star,
Know it can be so tough,
To get on with our stuff.
When life gets overbearing,
At projects I keep staring,
Put my head in the sand,
In my dear Switzerland.
(Dreadful, isn't it? x Juliet)

My name is Elena. I live in southern central California. Today I am finishing up a pair of bloomers for my Halloween costume and hopefully starting my corset. I also need to get 2 donation quilts quilted.
I am really behind on my WOPs, as I have been sick to the point of bedridden for the past 2 days, but THANKFULLY I'm feeling better, so today means putting my nose to the grindstone.

Today I am home with my 6 yr old, she caught a cold over the weekend. In just a little bit hubby will be picking our son up early from school, and then our daughter and I, then we'll be heading to the city to take me to the dentist. I don't like going to the dentist, but my tooth broke and I am in a ton of pain. :(
After the dentist I have to make chocolate chip cookies for my son's birthday tomorrow. He asked me to make his class cookies because he loves my baking. How sweet is he!? :D Thankfully hubby will be home to help me.
Thank you for the generous giveaway!
Blessings, Jessica

I'm Kristen from Colorado. I've had a very productive morning - got the kids off to school, ran on the treadmill, lifted at the gym, took a quick shower, volunteered at the school library, and ate lunch at school with the kids. I am currently being side tracked on the computer while trying to figure out what to cook for dinner. Next I'm off to fold some laundry while listening to a podcast. I can't sew because my sewing room is currently occupied by my crazy father-in-law. But he leaves today - woohoo (oh, I didn't just say that publicly, did I?) :) I'm going to start a new quilting project tonight. Can't wait to get my space back!

I just go home and now will clean house...followed by my 6 children coming home and giving my house that lived in look. I then have homework to help with. My nieces b-day party...helping my Aunt with her mutual night...and hopefully some me time. So that's today. And a lovely day it is!
Hi I'm Kristin from Eugene Oregon. Today I'm at the Eugene Ballet Studio fitting sweaty dancers in to Cinderella and Nutcracker Costumes. I'm working, but it's like a day off because my three wonderfully-well-behaved-never-arguementive-always-tidy children are playing at their aunt's house. Whoopee!!
Teri from Alabama - I am working right now but will be quilting on daughter's quilt tonight! Love the colors in this! Thank you for the chance! Teri Dingler
I'm Kimberly from Toronto. Right now I'm keeping my fingers crossed that my toddler girl naps just a little longer and that my kingergartener boy plays quietly so as not to wake up the toddler girl. This way I can drink my coffee in relative peace and knit another couple rounds on a baby blanket.
