A New Project + a Handmade Giveaway!

I'm cutting into a new layer cake this afternoon.  I think for me, this stage of the project is the most exciting.  I love the planning and the math and the anticipation of what the finished quilt will look like.


The lovely fabric I'm using for this quilt is the new line from Bonnie and Camille, called Handmade.

There are some really great prints in this line - I love the hexagon prints, and the oh-so-pretty florals.  And I can't leave out the bias stripes.  Boy do I love a good striped fabric!




You can see more of the whole line here on Moda's site, and here at the Fat Quarter Shop.  

Would you like to win some Handmade?  The Fat Quarter Shop has generously offered to give one of you a full fat eighth bundle of Handmade!  




To enter the giveaway just leave a comment below telling me what your favorite pre-cut is!  And if you're a no-comment blogger, be sure to leave an email address so I can reach you.  

Giveaway will be open until Thursday, September 8th at midnight and I'll announce the winner here on Friday.  Good luck, and have a great Labor Day weekend!

  43. I really like Jelly Rolls because I have more patterns using jelly rolls but honestly I like all precuts. They are so simple and easy to use.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Count me in ! I like fatquarter stacks. I just used some charm squares in a project, and they had pinked edges, making them not quite measure a full 5 inches (NOT GOOD). Many times I find 'elbows' in my jellyroll strips (ALSO NOT GOOD), and I feel like layer cakes limit me to only using specific designs unless I don't mind waste (NEVER GOOD). So, fatquarter stacks or fateighth mini stacks are a good place to settle, don't ya think?

    ReplyDelete
  45. While I love fat quarters, I buy more layer cakes. Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  46. I love fat quarter bundles the best!

  53. My favourite precut is a fat quarter bundle - enough fabric for a full-sized quilt and a few leftovers to add to a scrap project. Perfect!

    ReplyDelete
  54. When adding to my ever growing stash, I can't resist a fat quarter, but most of the patterns I use require a layer cake so it would probably be my favourite precut.

    ReplyDelete
  55. Thank you for a great giveaway. Bonnie and Camille are my favourite fabric designers, I especially love the way all of their ranges work so well together. I love to buy fat quarter bundles because you get a bit of everything, I also love jelly rolls because it gives me already cut scrappy binding. x

    ReplyDelete

  71. After beginning with a layer cake and then jelly rolls, I finally bought a fat quarter bundle, on sale, and enjoyed the luxury of having plenty of fabric to work with. I was able to cut all the binding strips and make pieced blocks for the back of the quilt and still have fabric left over : )

    ReplyDelete

  179. I'm fairly new to quilting so I haven't used enough precuts to have a favorite. But, I LOVE Bonnie & Camille fabric and would so enjoy using Handmade.

    ReplyDelete
  180. I'm not sure if I could come up with a "favorite" precut, it's so project dependent for me. Lately though, I am loving the mini charm packs. The little 2 1/2 squares are perfect for when I love a fabric line, but am not ready to tackle a whole project. I've got a quilt in process for all those little candy charms ;)
