Martingale - Little Gems (Print version + eBook bundle)

Images above are from Martingale by  Photographer, Brent Kane

Here is mine!  Looks like I have mine sideways but hey....it works!



Her instructions are easy to follow which makes paper piecing fun!

You can find her book here  as well as on Amazon.

The fabrics used are "Strawberry Fields" by Island Batik, The light background fabric is from the "Latte Foam" line.

I truly enjoyed this Little Spinner, of course the Island Batik fabrics made it even more enjoyable.

Thanks Connie for allowing me to be a part of this.

Martingale and Connie are giving away an ebook of her "Little Gems" on each participating blog hop, the winners will be announced on April the 20th on each site.

To add to the fun:

I am giving away 54 - six inch squares (26 colors, so you get 2 squares the same fabric)


This will give a lucky winner a chance to see, feel, and smell 26 awesome Batik Fabrics.

Just leave a  comment and do visit the other blogs for a strong chance of winning Connie's e book.


Be sure to go by tomorrow and visit Barbara at:

    Barb your little Gems quilt just sparkles and with that warm color combo, it reminds me of something hot, like fire. Great finish and I really like that red/orange dot fabric.
