I loved getting to try out this super cute pattern from Fat Quarter Shop!
It uses a special pre-cut, a Jolly Bar (5" x 10") and a charm pack. I had this baby quilt top together in an evening easy peasy. I used Day Sail from Moda and an Aqua Bella Solids charm pack. I took at the too girly prints so I can use it for my little man :)
Pattern is free with a YouTube tutorial, kits are available at Fat Quarter Shop.
Thank to Kimberly and the team, always creating fun and easy patterns!
$25 Gift Certificate from Fat Quarter Shop!
Hooray! This could get you started on a Jolly Bar project of your own!

What is your #1 WIP or project for 2015?
Mine would have to be finishing my memory quilt of my dad. I'm a little less than halfway there. I do enjoy working on each block. It can be really hard and sad but I will finish it because I want to snuggle in it.
WINNER ANNOUNCED NEXT TUESDAY, 2/17.

I started a House quilt early last year. Picking the fabrics and doing the window stitching has been time consuming. But I would love to finish it for 2015.
I am also working on a memory quilt of my husband. He passed away in Dec 2013 and I find it very hard to cut up some of the shirts.
Those fabrics look great in that quilt.
My hope is to finish my NYBEAUTY quilt blocks.
A quilt to actually go on MY bed!
My sisters quilt that I started three years ago... I have to finish it!
I really need to finish my Pam Kitty Morning Dresden quilt. I know I'm going to love it. I just freaked myself out with the applique stuff.
Sad to say, my project is one that is a graduation present...June 2014 graduation!
I am working on a large rag quilt for my son in law! Trying to find the time to finish it.
Fun pattern from FQS! They have the nicest quick patterns!
My project for the year is a king size quilt. I am using all Bonnie and Camille fabrics that I have been saving up for years and using a pattern from Camille's book Simply Retro. The biggest project I have undertaken so far. Thanks for the chance to win. Love your quilt. That looks like a fun pattern.
It is so hard to pick one, I have 4 memory quilts that I have to finish for a friend and her children, my niece has asked for a signature quilt for her wedding, and I want to do a quilt for my bed. Plus 20 other projects that I want to do. But #1 has to be the memory quilts.
So I purchased this lovely Hideaway fabric by Lauren and Jessi Jung in 2011 and have been working on a quilt with it since then. I finally got the top together last year, but wasn't happy with the border, undid it and re-did it. Put a back together this year and it wasn't big enough.=( Still working on fixing that problem. It's a huge 90x90 quilt that I think my DH will love. I WILL finish it this year, somehow.
I think picking one is hard-I need to get a baby quilt done for a cousin due in May (finished my sister's quilt, who is due next month, before our own little one arrived last week) and for our own house I am really wanting to make a ROYGBIV quilt of some sort!
Stash busting is #1 on my list for 2015. A close second is getting my pile of quilt tops quilted. It is a shame that I get to that point (a completed top) and then they sit. It's about time to get them quilted and in use.
I have about four quilt tops that I would like to get quilted. I want to work on my free motion skills! My favorite is an x and + quilt though
my #1 WIP for 2015 is a sparkle punch quilt for my niece. I want to have it finished and give it to her for Christmas. Of course I have a few deadline things I have to finish first. :(
(I probably should have said that my #1 wip is graduating from school in December...but that seems so far away)
To turn a batik jelly roll that I bought last year into a jelly roll race quilt : )
I just finished a memory quilt in honor of my dad, who passed away in January, but I am making a second quilt like it for my sister. That's my #1 finishing priority for now!
I will be finishing the Grand Illusion Mystery Quilt-Along with Bonnie Hunter of Quiltville. My version is 100% dots - every fabric is a dottie fabric. It's a queen size for my daughter. Hopefully that will be finished by the end of February.
I started a stack and slash, thought I'd finished it. But I need to remove 3 rows from the bottom, and add it to the side!!!
my WIP for 2015 would be Love Entwined, started - not much done and would love to finish more if it but doubt it will get finished - I am working on too many quilts at once.
Getting my sweet and green beans quilt started....
I need to finish a comfort quilt for a friend who lost her partner last year. He was only 37 years old and very sudden. I can't even imagine what she has gone through the last year and this is my way of being there for her.
Thanks for the giveaway!
I have been needing to get curtains sewn for the kitchen. The fabric has been sitting next to my sewing machine for a year. I must get them done! Thanks!!
What I'd really like to do this year is not just one project but a few is to finish my ufos. I knocked off a few last year so this year it would be nice to catch up on my quilting.
I don't have a #1 really...but the custom quilt I am working on right now is pretty important...it will be finished for sure.
My #1 for 2015 if to get my just completed 100 city sampler blocks assembled into a top, and then quilted.
Your memory quilt sounds wonderful- what a bittersweet process.

I have a jacobs ladder quilt that has been lingering for over 2 years that I would love to see finished up this year!!!
I am finishing a Lollipops quilt (Fig Tree) in Halloween colors for my daughter with an Oct. 31 birthday.
I love your quilt! The design is great- not girly at all! I have a queen size quilt I'm working on with the Scrumptious line that I want to finish this year. Thanks for the giveaway! cherisetoweratgmaildotcom

I have two #1 projects for 2015. First I want to finish an Ipad case that my sister started before she passed away in January. I would like to make it into a sewing/embroidery case for my mother. The second is to sew my first throw size quilt. I have been using the only quilt my sister made and it has inspired me to overcome my first quilt fears and just do it.
My #1 project is to finish a quilt for my son. He picked all the fabrics, now it's my turn. All the projects for this tour have been great. Thanks for the giveaway.

I've got the top of a queen sized quilt done (my first quilt ever and learned my lesson on that!) but I still need to make the back and then quilt it. I have to get it done, and soon!
Mine is a tree skirt made from ties from my husband's grandfather (who recently passed away). The trick right now is getting the ties away from the widow, whose Alzheimers is making things difficult.
I'm just hoping to make my first quilt this year.

Hi there Heather and Megan,
My numero uno WIP is to finish up my SECOND super-king-sixed hexagon quilt. There are over 4,000 hand=pieced 1" hexagons, all scrappy fabrics given to me by various pen pals and swaps around the world. This one is for my 16 year old son. When he saw the first one finished(for our room) he asked me to make him one too! I kind of stalled on it since August…that is a lot of hexies to do…but am now feeling the need to get it done!
Thanks!
Quilty Huggs,
Jacqueline in Pitt Meadows

I would like to make a table runner for our coffee table. sarah@forrussia.org
I tend to finish what I am working on before I start anything new so I don't have a WIP at the moment. I am currently sewing for a friend to help out with the cost of her wedding by sewing 28 table runners 8 ft long, and miles and miles of bunting. If I get the chance to start a blue and white quilt that I have in my head I would love to finish that this year.
