Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Day Charm Square Giveaway

Giveaway is currently closed. Thanks to all who entered!

Hello everybody and welcome to my FIRST giveaway ever as a part of Sew, Mama, Sew! Giveaway Day!!


I'm Alison and I have been quilting for almost 10 years and I'm currently a full time graduate student in Chemistry -- quilting is like therapy for me! I have been blogging here at Little Bunny quilts since August 2011, and have loved "getting to know" so many of my fellow bloggers, especially my fellow scientists! So poke around and maybe you'll like what you see here or at least I'll make you laugh a little.

1. Nubees Blocks - August 2. Cheery Quilt 3. Christmas Napkins
4. Batik Placemats 5. Nubee's Block  - July 6. Snowflake Quilt
7. Seville Quilt 8. Mystery Quilt 9. Teacup quilt 

I did a charm square swap over the summer and ended up with two spots so I ended up with A LOT of 5" squares and so you have the chance to win 50 of them!


You'll receive 50 lovely charms to add to your stash!

AND if more then 250 entries are received, I will add a second prize of 25 charms!
UPDATE: Second prize of 25 charms will be given!! I hope you're feeling lucky!

The giveaway will be open until 5 PM PST (8 PM EST) FRIDAY DECEMBER 7th, and I will announce the winner the next morning! I am willing to ship internationally!

To Enter:

For one entry: Tell me about the state of your holiday decorating if you are doing any this year. I have my tree up, but it's not decorated yet!

For a second entry: be an old or new follower of Little Bunny Quilts and say "I'm a _____ follower" and fill in the blank with something creative. Wow me, people!
UPDATE: And I will be verifying this! Don't think you can trick me.

Have fun checking out all of the Sew, Mama, Sew! giveaways this week!

  16. I have done no decorating. :( We recently moved and haven't had the opportunity yet. We do plan to hit the after Christmas sales to stock up on Christmas decorations for next year! To get into the Christmas spirit, though, I've already been listening to tons of Christmas music and have been watching Christmas movies for a month already. ;)

  35. We were all sick like all of November, so mostly we are trying to get the house decluttered so we CAN decorate instead of just being in survival mode. We do have garland with pretty bows and some jingle bells on our stair rail, a big wreath on our front window, and we got out the Advent wreath to light at dinner. But that's about it so far. I think we'll get our tree this weekend hopefully!!

    ReplyDelete
  36. We have actually skipped decorating this year, because we'll be out of town, and have been busy doing some deep cleaning.

    ReplyDelete
  73. My holiday decorating is atrocious. I am yet to put up my tree and I have three halfmade Christmas projects that were supposed to add to my festive frivolity and instead are languishing in piles taunting me with their unfinished-ness.

    ReplyDelete
  74. We don't really have room for much decorating but we all love Christmas lights so we have them strung all over IN the house. Why waste them outside where I can't see them??

    ReplyDelete
  90. I am done decorating the house, but still need to buy a tree thank you for the chance to win.

    ReplyDelete
  91. I have a 8 month old baby and the tree is still in a box in garage with wondering on where to put it that it would not get climbed (she is standing and holding things) and a tree would be too tempting. And I am sure you will get over your amount of responses. Love giveaway days.

    ReplyDelete
  92. My husband put the outside lights up, but we haven't got our tree yet. We may cut down a slightly overgrown ornamental cedar in our yard and use that... we've been doing the tree on the cheap that way for 4 years now, but the kids are objecting this year and want a "real" tree!

    ReplyDelete
  93. I have my Santa, some window decoration and my Calendar up, but we won't do the tree until December 24th.

    ReplyDelete
  94. I allways wait with decorating until after sinterklaas, a dutch tradition. So I will start decorating this weekend.

    ReplyDelete
  102. I'm a new follower and I'm in awe of how you can go to school full time and find time to sew and blog. I have 3 grown kids and I still have a hard time finding me time. Thanks for the chance.

    ReplyDelete
  103. I've bought my christmas tree if that counts! I'm still waiting for it to be delivered though...stockings are made, lights might be going up today, but SMS has too many good blogs to discover, i wont finish reading them till Christmas!

    ReplyDelete
  104. The decorations are out of storage but they are not up yet.

    ReplyDelete
  105. I'll be putting up the tree and decorations and lights this weekend - and making some sugar cookies. I love when everything looks festive! I would love to win these - I love mini charms (I'm working on a scrap vomit quilt)

    ReplyDelete
  106. Haven't started yet. We tend to leave it another week before we disgorge the loft contents. Also you should probably send me her prize if that naughty twinnie Amy @ Amys Crafty Shenanigans wins. She won't mind, honest!

  117. Oh goodness, with holiday decorating I'm not sure what's been done at my house since I move back from Italy in 10 days. I do know that I'll be putting up/making more decorations when I'm home like hopefully a garland for the mantle and I'm sure to be baking many cookies.

    ReplyDelete

  123. No decorations up yet! Normally I decorate on the 1st December, but despite having been looking forward to doing it for weeks, I just haven't felt like it yet! No idea why!

    ReplyDelete
  124. I've only got one sting of snowflake lights up inside. And I've got all the lights & blow-ups done outside. But no tree yet... Don't know when that will happen... Thanks for a chance to win! :)

    ReplyDelete
  127. My tree is up and decorated and the outside lights are done. That is probably all I will get done.

    ReplyDelete
  128. We have thought about tree hunting! Definately this week. We have the pattery tree my mother made out and lights up outside. We better get in the spirit!

    ReplyDelete
  129. I have not yet begun to decorate for Christmas... I guess I'm too busy trying to get all of my sewing for Christmas presents done!

    ReplyDelete
  134. i am almost done with my holiday decorations - tree is up and lights are up outside!

  135. My holiday decorating consists only of one hand print wreath so far. Have to figure out where the tree is going this year before getting out the decor. sirscientess(at)gmail(dot)com

  139. Thanks for the chance - I'm also a student (nursing) so I understand that quilting keeps you sane! Had my last final this morning so I'm hoping to make some Christmas Stockings and a tree skirt this week!

    ReplyDelete
  140. I have put up my measley 12 inch Christmas tree with its 20 red ornaments. :) That's about all of the decorating I will be doing this Christmas. Thanks for such a generous giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  141. I'm a NOVICE (couldn't think of something more creative) follower on Google Reader.

    ReplyDelete
  142. I've got almost everything: advent calendar, Xmas tree decorated, some garlands, some window decoration... but sure I'll sew something else.

    ReplyDelete
  143. We have done all our decorating already in 2 days. Only because our help is getting older = )

    ReplyDelete
  144. I have our tree up, but nothing on it and nothing else out.

    ReplyDelete
  145. I have a broken ankle and a houseful of kittens. We have gotten zero decorating done.

    ReplyDelete
  146. We have our tree up and decorated. I think that's all we're doing this year!

    ReplyDelete
  147. So far... all I have for decorating is a coupe of small twine cone trees I made and a few paper snowflakes my boys cut out! Hubby was in hospital for almost two weeks, so nothing's happened tree-wise yet. Hopefully!

    ReplyDelete
  148. I have done nothing!! Thanks so much!

    ReplyDelete
  149. We haven't done any holiday decorating at my house yet. Well, that's a bit of a lie, but a bit not. You see, we forgot to take down a garland last year and so it's still attached to the drapes in the living room. And also, we never took down the lights outside, so they're up (but not plugged in yet...) I live with my sister and her husband and we've not managed to coordinate a weekend yet, but possibly Sunday we'll get things out and do it up proper.

    ReplyDelete
  150. I haven't done any decorating yet. I don't have small children any more & it is/was very important to them (that's my excuse anyway!). I will get it happening soon. Thanks for the lovely giveaway.

    ReplyDelete
  151. I don't have my tree yet! only a few Christmas cards are decorating the mantlepiece...we better get on the case soon

    ReplyDelete
  152. I don't have any decorations up yet. That will probably happen after next week when all my finals are done and the semester is over!

    ReplyDelete
  153. Oh dear. Christmas decorations. I don't have *anything* up yet! :-( (Although I am in the middle of making Christmas stockings for my whole family, so I guess that sort of counts as decorating progress?!?)

    ReplyDelete
  154. I decorated my meyer lemon tree with lights and ornaments and I hung a few big stars from the ceiling.

    ReplyDelete
  155. Thanks for sharing and for the opportunity on a great draw.

    ReplyDelete
  156. My decorating is going slowly. There are things out on every table until i can decide where they go. Probably more than 1/2 done. No tree up yet, i wait a little longer for that since it takes up so much room.

    ReplyDelete
  157. I am a new enthusiastic follower.

    ReplyDelete
  158. I'm done decorating. We hauled out all the stuff on Saturday and got it all done. There's a few things I am accustomed to putting out that I haven't been able to find, but I think I'm just gonna let it slide this year.

    ReplyDelete
  159. I have gotten no decorating done yet.

    ReplyDelete
  160. I'm a new follower.

    ReplyDelete
  161. Well, the tree is up but not fully decorated, and a garland is waiting to be strung in the kitchen... So it is definitely a WIP!

    ReplyDelete
  162. My holiday decorating is ALL done! We turned the living room into my sewing room so all we have room for now is a 4 foot fake tree ;) Win for me, I decorated it and put all the other stuff out a week ago!

    ReplyDelete
  163. Hello Alison! My decorating is limited this year as I just dont' have the spirit without kids around! I have a snow/town scene on my fireplace and a small tree..and some garland on the mantel with candles..and I just have to "wrap" some of the pictues on my wall to look like presents and I am done! All this...just in case the kids stop by!
    But Merry Christmas just the same!

    ReplyDelete
  170. We're almost done decorating. Had to make an emergency trip to costco to buy more (matching) outdoor lights before they ran out and those are still waiting for installation, but everything else is up and shining!

    ReplyDelete
  171. I'm feeling anti-Christmas decorating this year but it must be done! :) I'll be glad when all the decorations are up and beautiful!

    ReplyDelete
  172. We are not putting up Christmas decorations. I guess you could technically say I'm done then, right? ;-)

    ReplyDelete
  173. Ok, so I looked at you front page and I decided to follow this blog after all. I'm not particularly easy to convince. ;-) I'm a somewhat-reluctant follower of this blog. LOL
