Quilt-As-You-Go {August IBA Project and Giveaway}

This month's theme for Island Batik Ambassadors is quilt-as-you-go (QAYG)! This is something that I have never done before, so this will be an adventure. I'm planning to base my quilt around this piece of fabric that I got in my new goody box:


Our project requirements state that our projects should be a minimum of 36 inches square, so I decided to attempt to make a sturdy picnic quilt.

I am so excited to share what came in my second Island Batik Ambassador goody box!



You can see the full video from our Facebook Live event anytime on our Facebook page!

Are you ready for a giveaway? Winner will win an 8 strip bundle of 5 inch strips! Check out all of these lovely colors! You'll receive over a yard of your choice of colors!


 To enter:
1. Leave a comment and tell me what colors you'd like in your bundle!
2. Those who follow the blog -or- share this post get a second entry. Just tell me how you follow -or- how you shared in a second comment.

 Maximum of two total entries per person! Giveaway will close Monday at 9 AM.

The giveaway is now closed and our winner is #26, Barbara!


Happy Friday! Don't forget that our newest pattern -- Faceted Churn Dash -- is available for F-R-E-E on Craftsy for a short time only! Get your copy now!

    I don't have many batiks in my stash so I would like just about anything! I do have some pink and blue so I would rather have greens, yellows, oranges and browns.

    Thanks for the chance!
