Perkins Dry Goods

I would like to feature quilts made from my patterns in the Gallery on the Perkins Dry Goods website. I know that dealing with images can be daunting…..so I am sweetening the pot. If you send me a picture of a project you made from one of my patterns, I will send you a free pattern. This is a time limited offer for the first 10 people who respond with images that I can use.

The rules are simple:

1. One pattern per person, even if you send multiple pictures.
2. Click here for submission guidelines.

Thank you to Pam in Kansas City! She sent images of three Grandpa’s Best quilts that she made. Here is one of them ~ click here to see the others.

You know you’re going to have good day when the kids all get up on time and are out the door without a hitch.  I love those days!  With three teens in my house, “good morning” is often a question rather than a greeting!

An even better sign is getting an email first thing (after the darlings have gone) from a new friend with show and tell.  Janet, the Idaho Quilter made up one of my new patterns - Three for Tea -  in the cutest new line from Fig Tree - Dandelion Girl.  I just love it!  She even scalloped the corners just like the pattern.

Speaking of scallops, they are one of my all time favorite things to do with borders.  Lots of people are afraid of them, but they really aren’t that bad!  The best part is the bias binding.  I know you’re reading this thinking “she’s nuts!”  If you read Janet’s blog about the binding, she even says it just rolls into place.

If you want just a little project to try out the scalloping biz and bias binding, I have a free pattern at my website for a little checkerboard topper.  Let me know what you think!
