When I came across Sarah’s version of Jacob’s Ladder over at Confessions of a Fabric Addict, I knew I’d found one solution to my ever growing cache of scraps. So now I’m busy taking care of that problem and thinking they look kind of fun this way.
(by the way, Karrie Lynn at Freckled Whimsy has a great tutorial on this block).
That got me motivated to clean out in other areas too…like magazines. I’ve been clipping through mine like crazy and came to the conclusion that I just can’t do it all, so I’m limiting myself to a couple of binders full of patterns that I can keep.
I discovered I have 2 copies of Quiltmaker’s 100 Blocks vol. 2 magazine and the adorable Schnibbles Short Story pattern. Who knows how that happened?
So that’s my giveaway…
…the awesome 100 Blocks magazine… the cute Schnibbles quilt pattern… and a stack of magazine patterns that just wouldn’t fit in those binders, but are much too beautiful to toss.
If you’d like to have them, leave me a comment and let me know. I’ll draw a name in about a week when I’m through sorting out the sewing room. By then, I might find a few more goodies to add to the package. …lets say Wednesday, September 7th.

I would love to win this :) I never got to buy this magazine when it was in the shop. And I love to sew blocks so I was a bit sad I missed it. And the schnibbles are just so cute. Going into rainy autumn and cold winther weather I hope I get a lot of sewing time soon :)
Thank you for your generous giveaway and not just tossing the patterns and book. I would LOVE to add it to my growing collection. I just started quilting this year and just can't get enough of it. Have a great weekend!
Thanks for the chance to win! I am always looking for more patterns to try. My fabric shop had the magazine displayed by the register, and I loved looking through it. So much inspiration in there. But mommas on a tight craft budget :)
What a great giveaway! I would love the chance to win.
I'd also love to see pics of your tidy sewing room :) I really need inspiration to tackle mine.

I'd love to win, Annette!
I made one schnibbles quilt and have been looking forward to making another.
What a neat thing - we benefit from your neat streak! Would love to win this one.
Hi from France

Have a niceday quilting day
I believe I have that magazine but I did want to comment on your block, that is alot of work, did it go quickly? Looks great!
Love your scrappy block - great use of your scraps. :-)
I would love to win too. It is always so refreshing to clen out the sewing room, isn't it? My problem when I get organized is that I can never remember where I put anything. Grrr.
I haven't entered many giveaway's but had to try this one......for the book and the Schnibbles. And the drawing is on my birthday so it looks promising........mmmmmmm The scrappy version of this block is great as I make a lot of scrap quilts with donations from friends. Thanks for the chance and continue to love on those grandbabies...the best of life for me too!!
I'm still trying to build a stash of patterns and such. Would love to be a participant in your wonderful giveaway.
Thanks for the chance.
I`d love to win, and try one of that pattern.
Happy sewing room tidy-up!!
Your block is such a happy cheerful block...makes me want to play with that one. I'm really curious about the size of your red/white star quilt. Do you mind sharing what size your blocks are and the finished size of your quilt?
I would love to be entered in your giveaway! Thanks for the opportunty :)
Oh my...I too, am trying to go through and reduce my magazine patterns, but it's so tempting to get some new ones, so here is my comment. You never know, I could find that one quilt that will get me so excited, I HAVE to make it!
Thanks for the chance,

Thanks.
I would love to win your tidy-up giveaway. You have a great blog.

Your blocks look great! Love that Schnibbles pattern. Need to put that on the list:)
Count me in please! (if I can join in from the UK???)
I managed to win a copy of vol #3 and I'd love to have vol #2 as well - I never found them on sale here!

I was late to the party to buy the magazine as well. And I love Schnibbles. Fingers crossed!
Thank you for such a nice giveaway. I'd love to win. I missed buying the 2nd block magazine and I love Schnibble patterns. Thanks again.
Love what you are doing with the scrap fabrics. It is a great way to use them. I like how you are setting them. Thank you for the giveaway.
I would love to win your giveaway! Schnibbles are some of my favorite patterns. I bet it feels good to get some straightening up done.
Love the block! We just moved into our home two days ago. I'll try it as soon as I get my sewing room in shape. Please enter me in your giveaway. I'd love the book or the pattern!
Great giveaway!! count me in!!!
I would love to win some inspiration!! Thanks for the chance.
I would love to win! Thanks for the opportunity!=)
What a nice giveaway - and recycling, too! I missed vol.2 somehow and that Schnibbles is too cute!
I love Schnibbles and would love to win. Thanks for the chance to enter your giveaway!
Just found you via Stray Stitches. I'd love to be entered. Yes, I love Schnibbles, too!
I'd love to win, but I'm inspired by the idea of cleaning up the sewing room! I wonder what I would find>
I definitely want to win this! Thanks for the chance.
How fun! I also get so motivated by pattern and have fun changing them up.rjk@ndsupernet.com
I would love to win in your giveaway. I have been wanting to make a schnibbles quilt for a long time.
I like schnibbles, and I would have such fun with the 100 blocks.
I enjoy making new blocks. Look forward to trying them all.
Thank you...Karencg

Thanks for the fun giveaway. I think when I get serious about blogging I might have a similar type giveaway.
I'd love to win your giveaway! Thanks for the chance. You are so generous and kind. I'm just starting out with quilting so this would be very motivational.
I'm probably the only person who doesn't have a Schnibbles yet. I also don't have a 100 quilt block magazine. What a wonderful prize to win!
I'd love to win this magazine and I've never met a Schnibbles I didn't like! I so totally get why you have two! I've done that myself. I just love patterns...oh the possibilities!
Wow what a great prize I didn't even know about the 100 blocks mags till this year so I sure don't have that one. Thank goodness you didn't decide to toss these wonderful things out! I would love to win as I am sure many others would also.
Wow, what a great prize. I love it that you are cleaning up your sewing room!!!
I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one who makes duplicate purchases of quilting books! LOL However, I know that I DON'T have this one, or the Snibbles pattern. Would love to be entered in your drawing!
What a nice giveaway! Please enter my name in the hat! :o) It's nice to have lots of patterns, you never know what you may feel like working on next... :o)
Who would actually say no to this great opportunity. What a great way to pass stuff along. So much better then ending up in the garbage.
I was so surprised to see lots of hits on my blog coming from your blog - and even more surprised to see such a great giveaway on yours when I stopped over here! So glad I could inspire you to clear out some stuff - maybe it will reverse back on me!!
I like it when people clean out their sewing stash! Please include me in the drawing.
Your quilt is going to be beautiful.
Thanks for a great giveaway
Hello Annette,
Love your scrappy quilt. Good luck with it. Thanks for the chance to win the magazine and other goodies. I haven't had the chance to see this magazine so fingers crossed.
Happy days.
Bev.xoxo
Im a new follower to your blog,would love to have these.Im a wanatobe quilter and Im just a beginner so the more reading I have the merrier.They can be pretty pricey as well.
Count me in please!~~Becky
I would love, read and use the magazines and patterns. Thanks for the opportunity. Good luck on the continued cleanup!
I would love to win this giveaway. Can't wait to see the patterns. Fan4may at aol dot com
Your Jacob's Ladder is wonderfully colorful and exciting with so many fabrics.
I haven't subscribed to a magazine in years, so I know I'll enjoy any magazines or patterns in your giveaway. And I've heard that Volume 2 is full of great patterns--thanks very much for sharing your extras.
Now that is a perfect block for scraps, I love it!!!! No giveaway for me, I need to stay focused on the projects at hand. LOL.
Hey. I see you have an adorable new grandson to wrap in the puppy quilt! Congratulations!! He's absolutely adorable.
Love your block & what a great giveaway! Be sure & show us your tidy sewing room.
I laughed so hard...just got done cleaning and purging for fall. Gave some to the Senior Quilt Group, to the Guild and sent my daughters each several things but here I am wanting these things! I love getting stuff that other people have had, there is always a story behind it! And don't you just giggle when you buy something twice(and in a rare case or two, 3 times!) lol Love, Love, Love the Scnibbles. We don't have a quilt shop in the area any longer and so hard to find the patterns.
Thanks for the giveaway and BTW love your blog!
I love that colorful block! Thanks for the chance!
Thank you for a chance for a giveaway! Good for you cleaning and getting organized.
I love the Jabobs ladder block. I may have to make another quilt using that pattern after seeing it in color. I made a queen sized bed quilt using that pattern for my daughter. Her request was for it to be done in all cream and brown fabrics. When done, it was beautiful, but I was more than ready to sew something, anything with lots of bright colors.
Thanks for a chance to win your giveaway.
This is a great block - good for scraps. This will be so charming and fresh.
What a sweet giveaway. I would love to have this magazine!!
mememememememe!!! nuff' said! btw, your red and white quilt is stunning! (mauh) Liz
I don't have any of the 100 blocks issues, so this would be great. I love your bright and scrappy Jacob's ladder blocks! Have fun tidying, Annette!
Oh please add my name to the giveaway. I love scrappy quilts and enjoy adding to my collection.
Thanks for the opportunity!
What a wonderful giveaway Annette I would love to enter Thank you Have a lovely day.
