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.

Either the curtains or a hand bag. Both are quick projects.

Hi, I'm Diana, from Romania.
I just picked up from the post office a huge pack from fabric.depot. While filling my new accesories box with my 4yo's Lego Power miners, I was thinking how stupid can i be to order a ton of stuff and bolts of white kona and not getting at least a pack of quorters from kona colors. Or a jellyrolls. Or even a small charm pack.
Well, yes, I am stupid, but there's a small chance of beeing lucky. Very small :D

Looking forward to lunch after a bit of a trying morning. Our 7 month old woke numerous times last night coughing, snuffly, etc. She and I were up at 4:30am. She finally went back to sleep but I never did. Tonight my plan is, if I can stay away, to finish up a sock I am knitting.

Then, I'll treat myself with working on Oh, Fransson's Tokyo quiltalong.
Oh, those are GORGEOUS!
I'm Mindy from New Jersey. I love being a new mom, which is what I "do". Right now, I'm listening to my sweet baby scream as she refuses to take a nap. I'm a day late on the give away. Yesterday, I was doing something very similar, as napping has become somewhat of a length activity for us.

Hi! I'm Carrie from Texas, where it almost NEVER gets cold enough to actually *use* a quilt, unless you're cold-natured like me :) Today I'm at work (boo-hiss-boo), but I'd rather be at home working on Christmas/Hanukkah/birthday gifts for family members, like the rainbow/circus quilt I haven't quite gotten the nerve to cut yet for my son (BTW, the jelly roll would be a good addition -- I'm not sure I have enough fabric stashed for that project).
Hooray for giveaways! I stopped by on morning stroll through blog land, and must say those are the yummiest colors! Congrats to whoever!

Hi! I'm Linda from Maryland! Today is laundry day! BOO! I, like many other, also have a sick little one at home. So, right now she's curled up on the couch watching Handy Manny! When she falls asleep, I'm going to finish up the quilted Christmas table runner I'm making for my mom, from the fabric I was just given that belonged to my late grandmother. I think this is going to be such a special gift. Some of the fabric is already cut out into 5 x 5 blocks, so it's like we are working together on this project.
Thanks so much for the give-away!
