ACCUQUILT GO GIVEAWAY - THE TIME IS NOW...THE TIME IS HERE....!!!

First off let me say......

I can't eat (we all know that is a lie)

I can't sleep.....true...

and when I am not eating or sleeping.....or playing with my "GO" cutter....I am dreaming of all the fun things I can do with it....

Am I sick?

Is this wrong?



So you have seen the butterfly quilt, the one tumbler quilt (can't seam to find a border for it)...

Put a border on this quilt....yepeee...it fits the top of a queen sized bed nicely.



Cut this one out and put it together today..... Also had my friend Krista come over...we cut her out a bunch of tumblers (will be the size of the blue one)...and she stayed for a while and sewed..... Trust me when I tell you that the colors are more vibrant in person.



So.....now it is time for the giveaway!!! What we all have been waiting for!!




I wish I could say a "GO" for everyone....but....no can do ohhhhh!!

SSOOOOOOOOOOOOO

We are going to make this easy.....but there will be alittle work involved.
Go to the Accuquilt website and chose 3 dies that would make your life easier and come back to let me know.

Then....if you post about this for me, you will get three entries (be sure to let me know)....but...tell your blogging friends to come here and tell me who sent them and that will get you another entry for everyone that mentions your name. Can't get any better than that.

Then.....I will do the generator thing...but will choose 5 numbers....and those five numbers will be named on this blog on the 10th of June....hopefully, you all will come back and see who has been chosen...then I will ask them to blog about why they should win the go....you can go by each blog and then come back here and tell me who you think should win. So...this relieves me of the pressure of picking.....

So now, you are asking what this next picture is??? Remember I told you to comment for an entry on this post? Well....I went back to the day I announced I was receiving the go and put everyone that wished me well...and everyone who commented there after on all the "GO" post. So..you are all numbered but you have more than one number if you had commented more than once. The only post you can go back to and comment on now is this post, I will not even look at the others.


If you have not signed up on facebook as a fan for AccuQuilt, please do, they are always having fun giveaways and are going to give a "GO" away when they reach 5,000 fans....so keep an eye out there as well.


The first round will end June 10th...we will give the five remaining numbers until the 15th to post thier plea for the "GO", you all come back and let me know who you think deserves it...and I will give it until the 20th for all of you to cast votes.

Thanks so much for playing, hopefully, this will be fun for us all.

PS>>>if you don't have a blog...no worries...if your name is picked, you can just use my blog...tell me what to say or do....we will get 'er done!!

NO MORE ENTRIES ARE TO BE TAKEN, COMMENTS ARE CLOSED.....

Hi! I'm going to take some time out this summer and do some quilting-ha!
There will be outdoor fun as well, but I will enjoy most of all sitting on my porch stitching!
Thanks for sharing,Love,Linda

I was just drooling over those cutters last night -- my dies of choice would be the apple core, drunkard's path, and tumbler, because those aren't shapes I can easily do already.

Thimbelina said...

Just over from Quilt Hollow...what a great giveaway!
Hmmm.... 3 dies I could use would be the 2.5" strip cutter, the Funky Flowers and the 5" shaggy.

Lovie said...

Found this giveaway via Crazy Boutquilts, please give her an entry. The 3 dies I would most like are Apple Core - Drunkards Path - Triangles in a Square. I love the old fashion blocks, and the 54/40 is my all time favorite, and the Tri in Sq would make live easier. Accuquilt is awesome, just found the facebook page - Love it.

audreypawdrey said...

I have been wanting one of these! I would choose the drunkard's path, double wedding ring, and hexagons. Such fun it would be!

Lori said...

Oh I hope I win!!!!

Barb from A corgi to Quilt by sent me over.( she is on my google reader before you!:0)LOL!!)

My 3 would be :

1.5" strip cutter

Rose of Sharon

2.5" strip cutter

Thank you and Have a great day!

Teri said...

I found your givaway on Quilt Hollow. I would like to have a go cutter for my quilt group to minimize the time it takes to cut charity quilts. My choices for dies would be the 6 1/2" tumbler, 2 1/2" strip cutter, and the 2 1/2" half squares. I've never won on a giveaway - this would be the perfect one to win.

Mel said...

Mary of Quilt Hollow sent me here. I'm really interested in winning this cutter because I am not the most accurate with the rotary cutter and it would be a great time saver for me I think. Since traditional and scrappy quilts draw me in the most, I'd like the strip cutter 2 1/2" die, and the 3 1/2 square die. Lastly, the tumbler die because I love tumbler quilts! Thanks for having this great giveaway, Barb. I hope you are getting some rest in between all your cutting and sewing Accuquilt style!

Millie said...

Hi Barb, I will problably not have a change to win...but I would be so happy to own a cutter. Just think how fast I will be able to cut those 2.5" strips and all those pretty shapes. Thanks for entering your generpous give away! And you know I am a happy follower of your blog!
Hugs,
Millie

Jason and Whitney Powell said...

I would love to have the 2.5 inch strip cutter. It would make life so much easier. Then i would choose the apple core and the circles.

janieg said...

I posted quite a while ago, but alas, my wish is not in the comments. I'm disappointed. If I had my wish granted it would be the circles and the hexagons. These are time consuming cuts. Thank you for the opportunity to win this wonderful machine!

Unknown said...

Thanks for your excellent giveaway. I found it through Jaybird Quilts. I would love the Circle die, Bountiful Basket die and Hexagon die.

SteffiD said...

Oh, Lordy! I have to choose two?! But what about the feathers? and the flowers? and the leaves? and the petals? and the vine? I have to choose TWO?! I can't :)

Elena said...

OMG, I would absolutely die for this giveaway! The best I've ever seen!

I would have to choose the basic dies: 5" charm square, half-square triangle, and strip cutter. Cutting is my main obstacle when starting a new project and this would really help! Thanks!

Katie said...

Hmm...my favorites...the tumbler, any of the strips, & any of the squares.

Great giveaway!
