Blog Hop Giveaway - Fabric and Toes Note Cards - Three Prizes for Three Winners!

It's a Blog Hop Party hosted by Michele at Quilting Gallery. Thanks Michele!
Everything looks like a quilt to me!  
That is why I started this blog.
I see quilts and quilt ideas everywhere.  
Everyone is trying to eat healthy foods.
Me too.
I decided it would be fun to arrange and display the food on my plate.
Then I take photos of the food displayed on my plate. 
This is one of my favorite meals - Quilter's Eggs and Fried Rice.
Look at all the colors of my Chunky Chicken Salad.
The fixings for a roast dinner, look like a quilt to me!
I even see quilt ideas when feet form a four patch design on dyed fabric!
My toes are the blue toes - bottom left!  We took this photo at a quilt retreat.  I uploaded them and ordered them as greeting cards. They are available for purchase on my website.  Click here. 

I am giving away three prizes today!  That's three winners! Three packs of  Fabric and Toes Note Cards. One pack for each winner.  

Leave a comment and tell me where you see quilts to enter the giveaway. I will ship internationally too!

Please make sure you are a "reply blogger" or leave me your email with your comment. 

I would like to invite you to follow my blog. Thanks!

I am also hosting another giveaway on my quilting blog - Crafty Sewing and Quilting.  Hop over and enter it too!

Giveaway will end at Midnight CST on March 23rd.  The three winners will be contacted by email and announced on March 24th. 

Enjoy the Blog Hop Party!

  2. I see quilts ever where but we most recently moved into a new building (old building new for us) and left over was what others called hideous orange charges with a triangle 4 point type square in a repeating design. I claimed the chairs and put them in my new office.

  4. Eu moro na Região Serrana do Estado do Rio de Janeiro,é montanha,então quando subimos um pouco mais a visão é sem dúvida uma colcha de retalhos.Começa o nosso Outono 21 próximo,aí sim a colcha feita de copas de árvore fica bem tradicional,com tons de verde escuro com caramelos e vai clareando até o palha.Na Primavera é uma colcha de sucatas desconexa.Consegue ver isso ou eu delirei na maionese????Beijos.Vou te seguir para dividir essas coisas com você.tiacarminhapezzuto@gmail.com

  10. I see quilts everywhere. I guess quilts are always on my mind because I can see a quilt in a map, a yard, the street, the mall, and yes, in food. Thanks for the opportunity to win your giveaway.

  13. I too tend to see quilts everywhere - especially geometric patterns and color combinations. Food? my mother and i were just speaking of the colors in our combination of St.Pat's day meal and winter squash. Thanks for the chance. p.s. I still have a bit of binding to finish on my Bingo card - the charms were put to good use.

  15. A couple of years back my parents gave me a commemmorative book from my elementary school, in which was a picture from the whole school at that time. I really saw a quilt in that one. Haven't done it yet, but it is on my want to make it list. Probably going to use an overlapping seashell pattern for it. thanks for the giveaway.

  18. I see quilts in the wheatlands where I live. It's a countryside of rolling hills, broken by deep washes or coulees (sashing) and framed by a huge, blue sky (borders). Thanks for the delightful blog. Let's be friends. Oh, and I LOVE Wisconsin. Been there twice (Wausau and Forest County). You're so lucky to live there.

  19. I see quilts everywhere too. I actually designed a quilt recently that was inspired by the light in the dentist's office. I was laying there looking at it long enough that I guess it got imprinted on my brain a little. Thank you so much for the giveaway. It may sound strange but I love feet especially when they have pretty toes. I used to be a pedicurist. :)

  21. I believe that seeing quilts in everything is a gift that we are blessed with. Color and light and fabric so bright applies to not only quilts but food, fields freshly planted or ready to harvest, a piece of clothing jus to mention a few

  26. I love your question and your photos! Great answers so far - since there are no wrong ones!! I always see color palettes when I'm making food, quilting designs when I'm walking {snow tire prints!} and quilts when I'm still. Quilt inspiration is in a bird on a hydro wire, a tree blowing in the wind, children playing in a playground, mushrooms on a pathway, lines on the road, buildings touching - you get the idea! Love the name of your blog:) Thanks for the chance.

  28. I saw a quilt today in the little tiny gravel at the lqs. It was the strangest thing...I was getting in the car and looked down and thought, wow, that'd make an awesome quilt. I wonder how I'd piece that! So, um, I see quilts in weird, everyday things!

  32. I'm a new follower and what great food pics! first I thought you were vegetarian ( my husband is now for 5 months) but then I saw the steak :-)
    If I win this, please don't send the toe cards, I have a thing against FEET, I don't like feet, I won't let my husband even touch my feet or have his rub up against me when we sleep..... LOL
    Where do I see quilt designs? of course I get inspired by other quilts, magazines etc. I love to play with EQ7 and often I copy over a design I've seen elsewhere and then start chaning the colors, the layout, the blocks etc and come up with something different.

  44. You have a really fun blog. Even recipes too - your photos are making me hungry. I like blue - so I really like your blue toes. Will have to paint my toesnails blue now that I have seen yours. The tiles in the bathrooms floors inspire me for making quilt designs. Looks like 3 winners are sure to enjoy those Fabric and Toes Note Cards.
