As we've talked about before we were so excited that we were asked to be part of Moda's newest book, Sweet Celebrations. It's such a great collaboration of sewing projects for all of life's happy events!
Can't wait to hold my first copy! ....keep reading because we have a fun GIVEAWAY at the end!
Here's a little bit of eye candy. The pillow below Heather made, so cute right? You can slide little candies and gifts into the pockets.
This little mailbox I created along with the party hats. Can't wait for my boy's to use the mailbox this Valentine's, they both really love mailboxes for some reason, lol. The party hats are fun because the age/number is removable thus reusable!
Here's a few fun questions from Oda May to get to know us a little better.
What is your favorite birthday memory?
Megan writing :) When I was 18 my three best friends spent the night, my parents were out of town and we made music videos all night long. Including me starring as Britney Spears. I love to re-watch that old VHS tape.
Do you prefer to celebrate with cake pops, cupcakes or plain ole cake?
Ice cream cake, hands down.
If you could have a quilt shop spree what items would you snag off the shelf?
Precuts, batting, notions, minky...everything?

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 305 of 305Love to quilt---anything! Would love to be entered in the giveaway!
Right now, I enjoy smaller projects, doll quilts or baby quilts..
I LOVE small projects like table toppers and table runners. I'm MUCH better at getting them finished than I am at getting BIG projects finished. I usually have many projects going all at once! The book looks GREAT, can't wait to get a copy!!
I would love to have this book!
My favorite projects to sew are quilts. I absolutely LOVE making quilts. But I also love making pillows and handbags/totes.
I love making anything for those I love! Currently I am in the midst of making doll quilts for my daughters :)
Quilts, quilts, and more quilts!
My current favorite projects are making lap size quilts.
I have sewn everything from doll clothes to wedding gowns, pajamas to alterations for a dry cleaner. My favorite, though is making a quilt. There is just something relaxing and fun about it. Although seeing my school play costumes on the award show on TV was a lot of fun, too.
I love to make a baby quilt~
I do like making quilts, but I also love a smaller project like a purse or place mats.
I love to make quilts for my little girls and my family members. It is something they can cherish for years to come.
I've been making a lot of Schnibbles lately, but am ready to work on something bigger. My son wants a queen size quilt for Christmas, so I have to get to working on it.
My favorite sewing project is probably a baby quilt. I get to use pretty fabrics, the quilt goes together quickly and I can have instant gratification and then it is on to something new! Fortunately there are LOTS of babies being born into our church family. :)
Any sewing project I finish is a good one! Loving the quick and easy to complete ones at the moment but have a couple of quilts to 'quilt' sitting there waiting....they're always satisfying!

Wendy :O) xox
I like making smaller projects...pillows, wallhangings, etc...that I have a realistic chance of finishing! :-)
Recently I've started to make seasonal table runners for myself and as gifts. They're quick and easy most can be done with a charm and some backing. I also love to make baby quilts, I just finished my last 2 weeks ago. ;-> Toni Anne
I love making things for my adult children; especially when they like it :-)! So far my quilts have been a hit.
I'm going to be silly and say "Whatever I am currently working on ... except mending!" I just love working on whatever project strikes me.
I love to make baby or lap quilts; not too big of a project and you still make somebody pretty happy! Thanks for a chance!
I love baby quilts and block of the month quilts.
I love to do small quilts and doll quilts.
I love following a pattern..pot holders are fun to make and give away. My hostess gifts are always posted by the recipients. Thanks for participating in this fun blog tour. Your blocks are so cute.
This book looks fabulous. It is so hard to decide what my favorite type of project is. I love to put my quilt tops together, I just completed one last week and it was so fun to see it completed. I also love to sew bags and pincushions.
My favorite project is a finished one! ;) I don't really have a favorite. I love baby/toddler quilts, bags, EASY clothes (no buttons or zippers), it all depends on my mood.
My favorite project is making quilts! Thanks for the great recipe and for the chance to win the book or some of your favorite fabric!
I love quilting....but my favorite project of the year is the flannel pj's I make for my six kiddos every year for Christmas....they are just fun and full of love.
i would love to win thanks for the chance
I would say my favorite is a lap quilt that hopefully would whip up quickly for a friend's special gift.
While I enjoy making quilts, I have a thing for little pouches, bags, totebags. Sometimes I need a project I feel like I can complete!
I enjoy the handsewing! Mini quilt for my table stand. Thanks for sharing...Judith, Texas
Baby quilts with soft minky backings are my favourite :)

I'd have to say that making table toppers, purses, or aprons are some of my favorite sewing projects .. it's like instant gratification. Love quick and easy in my crazy busy world
I love to make bed quilts!
Small Projects sometimes are rewarding.
I love making kids quilts the best! So much fun choosing colors and patterns and fun fabrics!
I am a quiltmaker thru and thru! There is always another quilt that needs made!
I like to sew all sorts of things... I have been really into purses lately, though. I like useful things :)
I am currently obsessed with English Paper Piecing. I also love simple patchwork.
Table runners or toppers have to be my favorites - a charm pack is big enough, there's room for some interesting piecing, but it doesn't take too long to finish.
Baby quilts! Looks like a great book; thanks for chance! (EMAIL: marshudson at comcast dot net)
I tend to love pillows, not sure why, but any project as long as it has amazing fabrics that I love working with! Thanks for the chance to win!
I like sewing wall hangings, especially seasonal ones, so I can change them each month.
thats a really hard question,but I think at this time in my life it's a quilting project of any type.
Thanks for offering the hop and potential for giveaways, I LOVE books and fabric.
Your mail box and party hats are adorable.
quilts! any size, any colour, any pattern!
Terrific giveaway, thanks!
My favorite is making small quilts. Easy finishes and great gifts.
I seem to have lost my mojo, so at the moment I'd say bags or girl's dresses as these are the only things that are getting any attention!
Congrats on the book and thanks for the giveaway! Loving the blog tour :)
Love making quilts but I seem to have this little problem of not finishing them but I am working on it.
Love making big quilts and bags. Lovely giveaway, hope to win.
My favorite sewing project is making a baby quilt. It's always so fast and I can choose fabrics I wouldn't pick normally for my decor. I love that I can easily experiment with free-motion quilting on a small scale quilt like a baby size one.
Love making big quilts
I love to piece but like to keep my projects small enough that they don't drag on too long!!!
My favorite sewing projects are quilts, I love the feeling I get when I finish one and get to snuggle under its beautiful warmth.
My favorite sewing projects are clothes for my little girl! Thanks for the chance to win.
I enjoy making quilted accessories--purses, tech cozies and more. Also at the moment am enjoying making some dresses for little girls that are in other people's lives.
My favorite sewing project is whatever I've got sitting waiting for the current project to be completed. Somehow the next project always looks like more fun!
Love making quilts and tablerunners.
Thanks for the giveaway!
I like tote bags.
Currently my favorite type of sewing project is a FINISHED one. LOL I have a 9 month old boy who takes very short naps. Speaking of which I need to go sew! thanks!
My favorite project is something quick!
I love making generous-sized lap quilts. They would work on a single bed for for two to snuggle under on the couch. :)
I loved perusing your blog!! Very fun and pretty!! And my favorite kind of sewing project is quilts!!! How many do I have started? About 50 would be safe to say!!! :-) I just hate finishing them :-P

This very moment quilts. When my 3 girls were young I LOVED making them matching dresses for the holidays, unfortunately they grew up!

I'm fairly new to sewing so any new project is my favorite.
Right now my favorite sewing projects are quilts...though I have been eyeballing garmet patterns a lot recently. :)
I love to make a project like a table runner or a pillow. I like that it takes more than a couple of hours, but not too long to finish.
Anything! I love to sew quilts to clothing
A quilt! I have too many started and unfinished right now. I need a sewing weekend

I really enjoy doing table runners, they are creative, quick and very useful.
If you had asked me this question about 18 months ago, I would've said Bag making without even blinking...but now the list is sew much longer of things I enjoy making, but it would either be bag making or patchworking at the top of the list.
Hugs & thanks for the chance to win

I mostly make baby quilts or lap quilts. manageable and fun to give.

strip quilting. Love to see little pieces grow into big quilts. Thanks.
I get a lot of satisfaction when I finish my quilts so I have to say quilts are my favorite.
I love making lap quilts! They are good gifts that can show off favorite fabrics, but don't take to long to make. Instant gratification is what I like!
I'm still not sure of my favourite projects as I'm still a newbie! I love the quick gratification projects at the moment!
Lap size quilts allow me to finish the quilt before begin to lose interest and start planning the next quilt. I guess I'm into instant gratification because I also love to do placemats.
I love quilting! Well I actually love piecing and only like quilting :)
My favorite project is lap size quilts. Everyone loves to get them and there and an infinite number of fun ways to make them.

I love making quilts.
Of course, quilts are my favorite sewing projects!
I wish I was a true quilter like my Grandmother and even my Grandfather are. My favourite thing to make right now are purses/bags. I find them very satisfying as I perfect my straight stitch and overall design abilities.
Quilts, I love to piece quilts, I love to quilt quilts, I love cutting large pieces of fabric into small pieces and then sewing them back together making large pieces. Ahhh, sweet pleasure Thank you for a chance to win.
Right now my favorite sewing projects are quilts!
My friends and I got together and made some adorable pumpkins out of upholstry fabric. I've displayed them for 4 years now, abd made more every year to add to my collection. The colors are gorgeous, and they have good memories when I look at them.
I think my favourite are lap quilts - infinitely variable, but requiring less material and patience than a full-sized quilt. I wish I was better at sewing clothes, though.
Quilts are my favorite and anything cute for babies!
My fave type of sewing project is making a lap quilt for someone special.
I like to sew anything I know will be appreciated and used. I love to sew clothing for my boys when they wear & wear it until it's too small. Thanks for a chance to win! :)
I've just started quilting. Mostly I sew aprons. Ruffly layered girly aprons. :) fun colors, sophisticated prints. All kinds.
Currently my favorite sewing projects are those that bring joy to my granddaughters' faces, things like twirly skirts, doll clothes, pillows, etc. They won't want homemade clothes much longer, so I'm busy piecing tops and will quilt them when the girls are older.
I love making unique "boutique-style" clothing for my children. I have also loved making them quilts and making my daughter doll clothes. Basically, I love sewing for my kids!
I love doing small projects to give as gifts, especially things like tote bags.

Boy that is tough, I tend to procrastinate when a snaffu is stumbled on which then adds to my UFOs! Sad I know but so true.....
