Blog Hop Party

It's the 4th birthday of the Quilting Gallery, and to celebrate they are hosting a quilter's blog hop party...what could be better?!? Make a big mug of peppermint hot chocolate and visit as many of the blogs as you have time for, and enter to win all the great giveaways! There are over 200 bloggers at the party from 20 countries and the list will be posted on Saturday...what fun!
If you are a party hopper who is new to my blog, "welcome" and I hope you'll come back and visit anytime! 
I have a couple of giveaways for the party...



I bought myself a copy of the new 100 blocks magazine and bought an extra copy for one of my blog readers. And I'm adding in a long fat quarter of the green Nancy Halvorsen, a Benartex "Tidings" charm pack, and an adorable Bareroots stitchery pattern.

The second giveaway is a Rapid Fire Hunter Star ruler and instruction book (quilt not included!) I enjoyed using this ruler and finished my quilt last month - click here to see it. I was dreaming of making a scrappy version of the pattern, however while working my 2012 UFO list I realized that I won't have time to make this quilt in my lifetime! So you might as well add it to your "to do" list!  The instruction booklet is excellent, and gives lots of creative ideas.
Let me know in your comment which giveaway you would prefer and giveaway winners will be randomly drawn on Dec. 17th...enjoy the hop!
