Yorkshire Park Blog Tour

Note: The Quilters Newsletter magazine and fat quarter bundle winner is Audrey and the winner of my patterns is Karen of Karen-Quilts etc. Both liked Mini-Garden Paths! Thanks to everyone who commented!

Hi everyone! Today is the first day of the Quilters Newsletter's Best Fat Quarter Quilts 2014 blog tour. Don't you love fat quarter quilts? They are so fun and easy to choose fabric for! Quilters Newletter has giveaways scheduled for the entire week (and mine is at the end of this post) so keep your eyes peeled!

My quilt for this issue is Yorkshire Park. The original was made in Topiary.

But I've been playing around with it tonight and I like it in Modern Lace, my new collection for Blend Fabrics, as well (plus a little green from Topiary for the leaves). What do you think?

Or maybe with a navy background, but with light blue leaves?

We'll have two winners for the giveaway, ok? The first will win a copy of the magazine and a fat quarter bundle of Silvia’s Sonnet by Silvia Vassileva from P&B Textiles, courtesy of Quilters Newsletter. The second will win a copy of three of my newest patterns: Mini Blossoms, Mini Garden Paths, and Chantilly. To, enter, let me know which one is your favorite of these patterns )(shown below) by commenting on this post sometime today (Monday, November 9th). You can enter until midnight Mountain Time.

Make sure to visit Quilters Newsletter throughout the week for fun prizes!

Happy sewing!
Amanda
