Happy Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Day! I am teaming up with Jane, owner of Quilter’s Way quilt shop, to bring you a very beautiful bundle of fabrics and a quilting pattern to go with it.
Quilter’s Way carries quilting fabrics, both paper and pdf download patterns, fabric bundles, and kits. Check out the Christmas fabric kit that goes with my “Jewel Box” Quilt pattern, Here.
If you are a new (or old) visitor to Color Girl Quilts, welcome! I have been quilting for about 14 years and writing my own patterns for about a year and a half. I like mixing fabrics, prints, and using lots of color! Visit my pattern shop or Craftsy. You can see quilting patterns I have published in magazines, Here, or follow my current monthly quilt-along: Super Simple Sampler.
For the giveaway today, Jane and I are offering a starter kit of nine fat eights of Cotton Couture Solids (shown in top photo) and a copy of my Dutch Windmill pattern. Jane used the fabrics in the bundle to make her own version of the Dutch Windmill baby quilt shown above. She added the charm squares of print from Amy Butler’s fabric “Glow”.
**A complete kit to make the quilt like the one above is available to purchase Here, and includes all fabric for top and binding and the pattern**
Thanks for stopping by! to enter for a chance to win the fabric and pattern bundle, leave a comment on this post. Please tell me: in 2015, what new quilting, sewing, or crafty skill would you like to learn?

I really want to become proficient (and fast) in free motion quilting. Otherwise I’ll die with dozens of quilt tops in my house. ;-(
The skill I wish to learn is paper piece. I only made one block with this method, a few weeks ago, so I consider it still a skill to learn. 😉 Your quilt is beautiful and wining your pattern and bundle of fabric would be a great Christmas gift. Thank you for your generosity.

In 2015 I’d like to give long arm quilting a try – I love FMQ on my domestic machine but really feel limited in the size of quilt I can tackle, and I like completing the entire quilt myself!

Your patterns are delightful! I love the windmill quilt. I don’t if it would be considered a sewing goal, but my resolution for 2015 is to come up with a better organization system for my sewing room so that it looks tidy all the time. Thanks for the chance to win!

I need to learn FM and binding. Merry Christmas!
I’d like to take more time in 2015 to develop my embroidery skills… it’s something I’ve dabbled in, but I get frustrated with long and short stitch (which, I’ve been largely working on crewel embroidery, so it’s an important stitch), so I’d like to get confident with it.

For a crafty skill, I’d like to learn how to refinish furniture, such as using chalk paint on vintage finds.
