Bloggers' Quilt Festival :: Fall 2011

This is a Schnibbles pattern, Scratch.  I used Chic or Treat from Moda.  I made this quilt because I was inspired by Shelia's quilt.  She made it with Swanky.  You can see her Scratch here.  I just finished this quilt about 2 weeks ago, just in time for Halloween...whohoo!

Thanks for stopping by!  Thanks to Amy for hosting such a fun event.  To check out more amazing quilts, you can just click here to go back to the festival.

Schnibbles Scratch...DONE!



I finished this baby over the weekend! From start to finish, it only took over a year...can I get a WHOHOO? LOL!  I had to go to my Flickr page to see when I finished the quilt top...I got it done back in September of last year.  I quilted it with a lime green variegated thread...it definitely gives it a freaky feel.

I was inspired by Shelia's version made with Swanky.  I LOVE Swanky.  You can see Shelia's Schnibble here.

The Devil's Puzzle Book GIVEAWAY!!!

I was asked a couple of weeks ago about possibly doing a giveaway for Clare's new book, The Devil's Puzzle.  I just got these in today and I don't want to wait another minute.  Here's  a little scoop about the book...

Witchcraft in a small New England town typically harkens Salem, Massachusetts.  However, amateur sleuth Nell Fitzgerald finds the upcoming anniversary of Archers Rest, New York drawing out the town’s own dark history of witchcraft, as well as that of its residents in THE DEVIL’S PUZZLE.  Nell is thrilled when her grandmother Eleanor’s boyfriend plans a double surprise—restoring the rose garden of her old Victorian house, and a marriage proposal.   However, Oliver’s plans are put on hold when a skeleton is unearthed in Eleanor’s backyard.  Police Chief Jesse Dewalt launches an investigation, and for once, Nell vows to stay out of his way, instead focusing on organizing a historic quilt show as part of the town’s upcoming anniversary festivities.  When clues lead to questions about Eleanor’s past, Nell is forced to uncover the truth.  As the anniversary approaches, a chilling wave of vandalism strikes town hot spots, raising fears that witchcraft has returned, and revealing secrets that could change life in Archer’s Rest forever.

In addition to being an avid quilter, Clare O’Donohue is a freelance television writer and producer, who has worked on a variety of programs including HGTV’s Simply Quilts with Alex Anderson.  If you are interested to find out more about Clare, you check her out on her website:  http://clareodonohue.com/


SO...the book has mystery & witches, which makes for perfect Halloween reading!  If you would like a chance at winning a copy, just leave me a comment.  Anyone, from anywhere can enter...Good Luck!


I'll do the draw on October 11th (Tuesday) (in the evening)...names on paper put in a fish bowl.  I will then email the winner.  THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW OVER.
