One more, just for fun

I hope you've all enjoyed the impromptu "book week" here on the blog. With so many new (& great) books coming out, I've enjoyed sharing a peek at some of my favorites -- as well as a chance to win a copy -- with all of you!

To wrap up the week, I'm offering up a prize of my own:

That's right -- a copy of the Moda Bake Shop book, Fresh Fabric Treats, from Stash Books. This book was the very first time that one of my projects was featured in a book, so it holds a very special place in my heart.

Oh, and it's a very special copy of the book ...

Fresh Fabric Treats Giveaway!

I had several of my fellow contributors sign it for a very special Quilt Dad reader! Here we are in Salt Lake City during the signing:

Thanks to Kim Walus for posting this great pic from the signing!

To win, simply leave a comment and let me know which upcoming sewing or quilting book your are MOST looking forward to, or your favorite book that has come out recently. And don't forget that I have THREE other giveaways going on that are still open:


I'll draw ALL winners later on this week, so you still have a few more days to enter. GOOD LUCK!

    I recently bought the 'Sewn Toy Tales' from Melly and Me- there are so many babies coming all around me and this book is great to create last minute gifts out of minimal fabric. {LOVE} Thanks for the wonderful giveaway. I have had my eye on this book :D

    Scrap Republic looks like a great one....and this one as well! Tho I have been able to flip through the Scrap Republic at a local quilt shop. I have not seen this one, tho. The cover is just eye candy!

    Deploy that Fabric looks good, but I really love a good ROY G BIV color scheme so Scrap Republic comes close. Fresh Fabric Treats isn't in my library either so that would be a welcome addition!

    I just bought "A Field Guide to Fabric Design" at PIQF (the big quilt festival in the SF Bay Area). I've always wanted to know how to design fabric - it seems like magic! I haven't yet had a chance to thumb through it but this week it's my reward after several errands and chores!

    Deploy that Fabric is one that I'm really itching to get my fingers on and start putting sticky notes on all the pages of stuff that I want to make (yeah, I'll have all the pages marked in no time). But Fresh Fabric Treats looks like a must-have addition to my quilting library too! So many books, so little time. I will have to live to be 125 to make all the quilts on my bucket list.

    Thanks for running all of these giveaways! I really want to get Block party but have to hold off as I know my guy has it ALREADY for me for Christmas (Scary organised man that he is!) My personal buy when it's in the UK will be Scrap Republic, if I don't win a copy! My sewing room needs me to buy that book so I can get to my sewing machine through all the piles of scraps :) Fresh Fabric Treats is in my Amazon wish list too though (I read almost as much as I sew) so fingers crossed for winning as I think 2 sewing books maybe too much for my man to cope with at Christmas!

    My most recent acquisition is "Drawn to Stitch" by Gwen Hedley. Whoa, this book is total eye candy to me. If I had to pick a book that is very recent, it would be, "A Field Guide to Fabric Design" by Kim Kight. C&T Publishing has some really great titles coming out. I find them all interesting!!

    I am looking forward to this book being released down here. We often miss out on books, or they are outrageously expensive. Still working on a queen size from Quilts Made Modern. I love Moda, my first two 'real'quilts were in Moda, and I love the feel of them. Guys who quilt! We need some in our Melbourne Modern Quilt Guild.
