Ummmm - how is it November already?!

Wow! I honestly do not know where the last few months have gone! They say time flies when you are having fun, but it also flies by super fast when you are just surviving!!

Nat & I had sooo many ideas to blog about this year (quilts & other projects) but just never seemed to find the time... Next year I hope! I do know Nat's Lancaster Diamond quilting challenge with Daisy Janie is looking fabulous - hopefully we can see some sneak peeks soon.

I am planning on making 2 quilts in the near future - a dinosaur themed one for my 3 year old for his 'big boy' bed & a newborn cot quilt in our new Garden Tales range for another project I've been working on ;) I will try & remember to take photos along the way & post for you all to see.

VIP PRIZE PACK MAY 2012

AND THE WINNER IS................


Before I divulge the winner of May's "I'M IN- VIP" prize pack lets find out what they have won!

Remember we said we would provide technical assistance, offer advice and give away freebies? This month is the gorgeous Hooty Hoot by Riley Blake - Project Pack AND a Pillow Pattern by Lynne Wilson. The Project Pack is comprised of three fabrics within the Hooty Hoot Range (Jacks in Cream, Owls In a Line in Cream and Blue).

This prize pack can be used for any purpose! We ask for only one favour and that is for the winner to show off what they make with their newly acquired Project Pack. Your technical requirement, as such, is to design anything using these fabrics and any additional fabrics you would like to contribute. We will offer you any advice and support in creating your masterpiece.

Your challenge is to create this 'something wonderful' by the end of June 2012. Send us a picture and we will promote you and your creation on our Website/Blog/Twitter & Facebook.
So who won it you ask?
