Sprinkle of Sunshine and a giveaway...

I walked in the door the other night with pizza, 2 kids and my arms full of bags, including my computer, the kids bag from daycare and more.

I was exhausted.

My husband was a few minutes ahead of us and had already gotten the mail.

He said "there's ANOTHER (rolling his eyes) package for you, probably quilting".

I began to explain that I hadn't ordered anything. I was perplexed as to what it was.

So I tore open the envelope.

EEEEEKKKKK!!

Quilt Maker's Special Issue Small Quilts:

Be still my heart, my Sprinkle of Sunshine is on the front cover!

I have been waiting, and waiting and waiting to tell you all that I would have a project in Quiltmaker magazine!

  I am on the cover.

I am stunned.

Here's a close up of the runner.

I used Moda's Nature's Notebook by April Cornell to create it.

To be honest, I began the project to hand sew during my lunch hour. 

 Bringing a sewing machine to work wasn't a viable option.

I've seen many many bloggers starting hexie quilts recently.

English paper piecing is one of my favorite quilting methods.

I just started a new project last night with a different shape!

However...

If hand sewing isn't your thing then this magazine has tons of other great projects.

Including designers such as Carrie Nelson of Miss Rosie's, Darlene Zimmerman, Jo Morton and the gals from Quiltmaker.

I know I am going to have to get more, one for my mom, my mother-in-law and one each for my girls' keepsake boxes.

Did I mention how excited I am?

Okay I must calm down.

Now for the giveaway part.

Leave me a comment about what you would like to see for projects in future Quiltmaker magazines...or just say you love my runner {{{wink wink}}}

I'll enter you to win your own copy of Quiltmaker's Small Quilts compliments of Creative Crafts Group.

Just make sure I can access your blogger profile or have your email available so that I can contact you if you are the winner.

I'll pick on May 11th!
