PLAY Mini Quilt Competition FQ Bundle Giveaway

Posted on April 27, 2012 by

Have you joined my new mini quilt competition, PLAY? It’s gonna be lots of fun and there are a TON of gift certificates to win!

SewHappyGeek Play Button 
I’ve got lots of sponsors lined up to give away fabulous prizes, and all you have to do is make a mini quilt depicting one card from a standard deck of cards – it can be any card you want to make, as funny or surreal or symbolic as you want! Check out the Flickr group for my example quilt.

I’ve even roped in celebrity judges! Katy of I’m A Ginger Monkey is going to choose the Most Humourous, which has a $35 gift certificate to Fat Quarter Shop prize, and Melissa of SewBitterSweet Designs is judging the Best In Show and Most Original, with $75 and $35 gift certificate prizes to Fat Quarter Shop.

There are also gift certificate prizes from Julie at Intrepid Thread, Natasha of Skye Reve Fabrics, and Randi of Fresh Squeezed Fabrics!

You can read all about PLAY here, and join the Flickr group here.

And now, on to the giveaway! To get you started, I’m giving away a rainbow FQ bundle of solids, with a fun print thrown in as well:

 That’s 7 fat quarters for free. And you know what I’m like – I’ll probably dig around and find another little prize as well.

So what do you have to do to win this lovely bundle?

  1. Be a follower of SewHappyGeek – just let me know how you follow (RSS, email, etc)
  2. Follow SewHappyGeek on Twitter or Facebook – I love chatting with you guys!
  3. Tweet or Facebook about the giveaway (see handy buttons below)
  4. If you’re participating in PLAY, let me know!

P.S. Because the Google Overlords want to force the entire planet into using their crappy social application, my Google Friend Connect has been cancelled. But you can still get me in your Google Reader (or any other reader) by clicking on the Feedburner (RSS) link below. :)
