Can I Tempt You with a Giveaway?


My copies of Quilter's Connection arrived in the mail yesterday and I finally got to see our article.  If you look closely on the cover you can see they mentioned the article...."go play in the snow, a fun fabric dyeing technique".  The reason I'm pointing this out is they used the correct spelling of 'dyeing' on the cover but.....not so much in the title on the page!!  Whoops!  But there is nothing we can do and glad it wasn't our mistake :)   I am just very excited that our article was accepted into the magazine.


Anyway I receive a few extra copies of the magazine so thought I would give a copy to one of my readers.  And since it is close to Christmas how about I throw in a meter of snow dyed fabric, your choice of colors!  It can be one color or a mix of colors, I'm always up for trying a new combination so lets have fun with this.   So here is what you have to do to enter.  Leave a comment telling me what colors you would like me to snow dye for you if you win!   I won't dye it until I talk to the winner first, so you can change your mind  :)   If you prefer you can email  me your answer or call or knock on my door...I'm not picky  :)    I'll make the draw on Tuesday Dec 13.

Note- If you comment Anonymous or are a 'no reply blogger' please give your email address with the comment. I need to be able to get a hold of you if you win!

    Sounds great! Snow dyeing is loads of fun. I would love a piece of fabric made with rust/teal...or other earthy colors. Thanks for the chance to win a giveaway. I bet the article is still great...even with the typographical errors.

    I would absolutely love a copy of the magazine! So hard to commit to colors for the fabric...I have been on a purple kick lately and love lime green. Maybe I could whip up something cute to match my traveling lime green Tutto bag for my sewing machine. Just a dreamy thought right now.

    Hi Congratulations - the article looks amazing - I wouldn't have noticed the typo if you hadn't mentioned it - I was too busy looking at the lovely pictures. C

    Kathy, I would love some of your snow dyed fabric, and copy of the magazine! How cool! I intended to ask you last time i commented... Do you have a list of products you use to do the dyeing? I will need to get the dyes if I want to try it, and if we ever get any snow! I love blues and greens. Thank you!

    Congratulations, Kathy and Lori. As Raye has already said, those of us who are guild members are so proud of both of you. Should I be so lucky, I would like some green fabric to replace the Rainbow Dyemond that found its way into a Christmas present. If not that, then experiment and surprise me. A

    Congratulations on being published!! As English is a foreign language to me I always worry about such embarrassing mistakes ;).
    But I would love to read the article and rest of the the magazine. I don´t think that it is avaiable in Germany. For the fabric I would wish for aqua, turqouise, teal, blue, just any color of the sea. Thank you for the chance to win.

    I love your snow dyeing. No chance of having a go - the most we get is a few centimeters here in the UK (though it's enough for the country to grind to a halt). I love greens!

    Congratulations on your article! I would choose blue, because it would go so well with a snowy quilt. I've not mch chance of snow dyeing here - even if I did collect the shavings from our ice rink, it'd melt before I could get it home! Years ago we had a ski slope at the ice rink (it's since become unviable) and I worked there - they'd've thought me mad hanging around after it closed with fabric and dyes!

    How exciting you made it to a print article. I have shared your link lots for the snow dyeing methods. Color choice is not so easy to comment on. It would definitely be an earth tone, but which one?
