Can you believe that Quilt Market is only a little more than three weeks away? Eeeek! I’m attempting to get all my ducks in a row for my trip to the States for Quilt Market and the AQS Quilt Expo in Des Moines. I’m still working on finalizing lectures and workshop samples and preparations, and I think I’ll make it, but I could use a little help from my friends right about now.
Here’s the deal: I need to have about 30-40 tips for The Daily Stitch loaded up and ready to go before I leave for Quilt Market, and with everything else going on at the moment, I’m running a bit behind! Can you help me out here? Send a tip or two my way? I’d be ever so thankful!
Any quilting tips are great, whether they’re about cutting, piecing, pressing, fabrics, threads, embellishments, unusual uses for everyday items, favorite notions or gizmos, great places to shop, or fabulous quilt shows or events. I’d also love to hear about your favorite quilting artists, especially the little known ones, so send some links and tell me what you think is cool about their work.
What’s in it for you, you ask? How about a copy of Inchie Quilts and an InchieSee & InchieDo Viewer Tool & Ruler Set? For each tip you send in via the contact page on this site, you’ll get one chance to win the book and the ruler! Tweet this giveaway on Twitter for another chance to win, and post about it on your blog for yet another chance to win!
Use this format for Tweets, so I’m sure to see it and count your entry:

I have blogged (http://sewcalgalcontestinfo.blogspot.com/search?q=dreamweaver), tweeted, and sent tips to Nadine and am hoping I am a the winner. This looks like a lovely book that I could have fun with. But then, I’m sure whom ever wins will enjoy it.
