| We really need to paint our porch...yikes! |
I hope my husband will be understanding about our dirty house and take-out meals this week! I can't wait to start playing with it!
I am a big believer in paying it forward/karma, so in celebration of my good fortune I am hosting my first ever giveaway!
The funny thing is while I was shopping last week, I bought some of Kate's new line Terrain, and then I went back to the cottage and she had sent the email. I feel like it was meant to be!
Anyway, if you are interested in winning 2 charm packs of Terrain, please leave a comment below. No jumping through hoops, just leave a comment. You could tell me about what you are doing to wrap up the summer or what fabric lines you are most looking forward to this fall. International visitors are welcome to enter the giveaway. I will close the giveaway at midnight next Tuesday, August 30th, and I will randomly pick the winner next Wednesday morning.
Thank you to Accuquilt and Kate Spain!
Now if you will excuse me, I'm going to go play with my new baby!

What a wonderful first giveaway. Thanks for the chance. I hope to get more artsy work done this fall. More time sewing and a zentangle here and there.
Awesome giveaway and Congrats on the GO! I'm wrapping up a consulting job this week and look forward to seeing next week. Can't wait to some Etchings, esp the maps, blueprints, and handwriting prints - perfect for an archivist.
Congrats on the GO! and wow, what a fun giveaway!
I am pretty excited about Terrain, but I'm not sure what else is coming out--I've been avoiding even looking, because I have so many projects in my 'to be done' pile! :)
How great another GoBaby winner and what a great giveaway! Thanks so much for spreading the love! Have fun with your new toy!
Lucky winner - have fun with it. I got a chance to crank that handle at a demo at a quilt show! Easy peasy! Keep the karma flowing and thanks for looking in on my blog and commenting thought I'd reciprocate!
You are a lucky duck! I've been trying to win one of those for ages. Maybe my luck will change on your giveaway. I love the fabric you are giving away!
What an awesome winning and also to give something away. I've been crushing over Terrain. My recient buys have been heirloom that i'm going to try to get into a quilt by the end of the year :)
I LOVE her new line! I don't even have to know that it is Kate Spain to recognize her style. Thanks for this fun giveaway! I am also looking forward to Heirloom, but I think my first purchase will be "Children at Play" by Sarah Jane or "Ruby" by Bonnie and Camille. Sheesh, I don't know where to start! Thanks again!
Congrats on the GO!
I´m looking forward to sew something for Halloween!
Greetings from Germany,

Have fun with the GO!
Would love to add these to my stash. I am currently still working on Fandango and making tech cozies.
Yay, Melanie! I love your pay it forward attitude (and share in that belief wholeheartedly). Thank you for your kindness and extreme generosity! Have fun with your new baby :) xo
Have fun with the go baby! Thanks for the opportunity for the terrain charm packs!
How nice of you! I love the terrain!
Congratulations! I never win anything either, it feels like. Good luck with your first giveaway… I found mine rather nerve-wracking at first, but now I am excited to try another.
Thanks you for providing this opportunity! I have been mostly trying to ignore new fabric lines for the fall, because I need to make things out of some of what I already have!
How fun! I'm sure you'll enjoy your new "toy"
Thanks,
Sarah
Congratulations on winning your Go! Baby from Kate Spain. I love reading her blog and her fabrics. I've seen the charm packs of Terrain, but would love to see the bolts of fabric! Take care!
Hey at least this Baby won't be getting up at all hours nor will it need to be changed!! Have fun! My next project is going to be out of fun fabric...like Terrain...and I'm thinking baskets...
Have a great day!
Paulette
congratulations on the win. so glad it went to a nice person! Love all of Kate Spain's work, and would LOVE to win this giveaway.
Congratulations on your win! What a really nice thing to come home to. ;-)
congrats. Thank you for a chance at a giveway. Good luck everyone!
My summer is wrapped up and the kids are back in school! Let's see, new collections...can I just say all of them? Congrats on your new toy and thanks for the opportunity to win some of Kate's fabulous new collection. I've committed myself to only purchasing what I need to finish off some WIPs until I get them done so I haven't had a chance to get my hands on it yet.
Just need to do a little school shopping before the kids go back to school after labor day. :) Thanks for a nice giveaway - I love Terrain!
Congratulations on your fabulous win and thanks so much for the chance to win two charm packs of Kate's new fabric! I'm just getting started on a Christmas gift quilt using Sandy Gervais' Tranquility fabric so it will be very warm and cozy. But I love the fresh bright colors of Kate's fabric lines too!
All our back to school prep is done and we are just waiting for next Tuesday. I'm always sad to bring the kids to school that first day, but they love being with their friends and the teachers are all so wonderful. I get over it quickly when I go back home and start sewing! 3:00 seems to come so quickly when I have a good project going!
Have fun with your new toy!

Thx for the great giveaway. What I've been doing to wrap up summer is embroidery. It's just too hot to quilt, ya know?
But soon......very soon.....I'll be back at the machine with a quilt sandwich on my lap.
Congratulations on your most fabulous win!! Thanks for the chance to win some Terrain!
you are a lucky girl! I have been waiting with anticipation to get my hands on some Terrain! I would be over the moon if I won!
Congratulations on that win!! How fun and exciting! I am really looking forward to Butterscotch & Roses as well as Etchings to come out this fall.
Thanks for the HOOPless giveaway!

How awesome that you won a Go! Baby!!! Have fun playing! Thanks for the chance to win some of Kate's gorgeous fabric! :)
Congratulations on winning! My sewing friend has one and she let me give it a whirl...maybe I can persuade the hubby for Christmas. :-)
SO lucky!!!! I've entered just about every GO! giveaway and haven't won yet. Have fun with your new toy!
CONGRATS ON YOUR WIN AND HAVE FUN WITH IT AND LET US ALL KNOW WHAT YOU THINK OF IT AND THANKS FOR THE GIVEAWAY.
I am looking forward to Malka Dubrawsky's Stitch in Color. I can't wait for it to come out!
Thanks for a chance to win, congratulations on your win! I can't wait to hear what you think of the accuquilt.
Glad the GO! found a good home! Yay!

Have fun with your GO! I am going to try to finsih quilting the four tops I've made in the past couple months before starting on some fall projects. Fun giveaway!
Your going to have so much fun with the GO Baby, I'm happy for you. I'm going to wrap up the summer by making a beach tote from the fabric Going Coastal.
Enjoy your new Baby :) I love terrain as I have no purple in my stash. Winning on that day would be the best as I'll be in the hospital having surgery to remove cancerous lymph nodes after having thyroid cancer 4 years ago. Thanks for the chance!
This weekend I'm helping a friend move her son to college. I hope he has some strong friends to actually move the things from car to apartment! Congratulations on winning the Go Baby. I keep trying, but haven't won yet.

Congratulations on the Go. I hope you are having fun with it. I'd love a chance to win some Terrain. I'm making baby quilts right now.
Congratulations on your win! Thanks for the chance to win some Terrain. In September, we will be going on a trip to see the grandkids to wrap up the summer. I hate to see it end, but I enjoy fall weather too.
I just finished my degree (and was hired temporarily by my college)! I try not to pay too much attention to what is coming out, because my trips to the quilt shops are my fun outings and I love to be surprised.
So this fall I'll be getting in the swing of working for a living once again, and finding my times to quilt an bead!
Kate Spain is my absolute favorite designer. I have all her lines but not Terrain yet...so I would LOVE to win it! Thanks for the chance.
Congrats on winning the go! Thanks for a chance to win some terrain.

Thanks so much for the give-away! Terrain is gorgeous!
We finished summer this week, and the kids are off to school. I'm glad for the extra time to sew again!
I'm going stir crazy right now as I had to put my sewing machine in for her yearly service and I'm really missing my sewing time! I have 3 quilts basted and waiting to be quilted so I can't wait to get started on those. Terrain is so gorgeous- I could sit and stare at those colour combinations all day and not get tired of them.
What a great way to pay it forward! I love the Terrain collection and really can't wait to work with the rich jewel tone colours. Thanks for the opportunity!
I'm looking forward to finishing up the summer garden and getting out some unfinished sewing projects this fall!
Love the colors and pattern of Terrain.
I'm actually waiting for Terrain to hit the shelves! No kidding. And I'm feeling love for Taza too. Congratulations and thanks for the giveaway.
I am anxiously awaiting the Terrain yardage. I absolutely want to get some, but I'd be thrilled to win the charm packs. Thanks for a chance. And congrats on your big win.
Aren't you a sweetheart for paying your good luck forward! Enjoy your new "toy" it sounds as though it was won by a very special person!
You'll love your Go! Baby - I have a Go! Cutter and it makes my life so much easier! It's very easy to use, too - just jump right in!
I'm definitely looking forward to Terrain - such an awesome line!!!
oh boy! i have been holding my breath for months! i can't wait for terrain to come out for real!
How sweet of you to pay it forward like that! ☺
Congratulations on your new "baby"!
Enjoy the new fun! My summer is officially over, I start teaching an intensive intro to college weekend tomorrow... if I survive the crazy weekend it would be fun to play with this cool fabric! I love Kate Spain fabric!

Thank you for the sweet giveaway! And congratulations on your lovely accuquilt win!! I have adored the terrain line ever since I first saw previews of it and I've been anxiously awaiting its arrival in our local stores. I'd LOVE to get my hands on it a bit early!
Thanks again for such a generous giveaway. :)
Oh what fun it is to win something...and something as wonderful as a Go Baby!
I'm wrapping up the summer by starting a little napping quilt to for my daughter to take to kindergarten. Finally a decision about what to do with my Sherbet Pips :)
Congrats on being a winner and now I hope I am one too! Wrapping up the summer by putting binding on four quilts my sister long-armed for me. Two down, two to go.
Terrain happens to be the fall line I'm most looking forward to. I already have three patterns I think it would look great it now I have to hurry up and wait for it to arrive.
Congrats on the GO! Terrain happens to be my fall crush :) What a sweet giveaway!
Terrain is so pretty, I'd love to have me some :-) And I can almost see Fall in the air, the trees are beginning to change! I'm soooo ready.
Wrapping up summer by making a fall bag for myself :-)
I would definitely love to win Terrain charm packs. Thank you for the opportunity. Have a blast with your Go Baby!
Congrats on the Go! Have fun!
Oh have fun!!!
To finish out the summer, I am helping my daughter get ready to go to university this fall and (if I have time) making her a dress.
It's like this every summer - I try to get every last possible swim in before the water in the lake gets too cold. Yesterday was still great swimming!
Oooohhhhhh! That is just so wonderful that you won the Accuquilt!! That and Terrain fabric to cut into - doesn't get any better than that!
I hope you enjoy your Go! Baby as much as I enjoy my Go! I need to straighten up my basement family room which will be turning into a quilt studio after my youngest daughter moves to her first ever own apartment on Saturday. Empty nest, here we come!
Congratulations on winning the Go!Baby and thank you so much for your giveaway.
I'm hoping for a weekend of sewing so that I may finish a quilt for my sister-in-law and then a bit of time for painting so that I can paint the picture I promised to my other sister-in-law.
Congrats on the winning! It's a great tool, you will sure love it!!
What a fabulous box to find on your doorstep!! I love everything Kate Spain so would love to win the charm packs, thanks for the chance. Linda
Woohoo! Congratulations! I have soooo been looking forward to Terrain! I love everything Kate Spain has done, but Terrain is my absolute favorite so far! Thanks for the opportunity to win!=) Now, go play! I can't wait to see what you do with it!
Congratulations on your Go! win (I entered that one too!!)
I'm looking forward to Terrain and Little Apples but I expect it'll be ages before they reach the UK!!
Congratulations on your surprise.Yes some things are meant to be - good begets good.
Congratulations on your winning and thanks for the giveaway! Actually this fall will come a few fabrics line I can't wait to get my hands on: terrain, ruby (I ordered a charm pack already), butterscotch & roses, putting the ritz, little apples ... just named a few. So you would help me to short my list down;-)

Congrats on your new baby! ;o) I love, love, love Terrain! All my other projects are for other loved ones, but I think Terrain is a "ME!" fabric. All I'm doing to wrap up the summer is get my oldest ready for her first day of Kindergarten. So exciting! Thanks for the chance!

Congratulations on winning! I'm sure your husband will understand. It's how he would feel about new tools. :)
I would love to win these charm packs- I am a new seamstress, and am finding that fabric *makes* a project! It's what I fall in love with first, and the pieces fall into place so quickly after that.
Thank you for sharing the joy!
Congratulations on winning, it must have been so exciting to see that waiting on your porch. I hope I get to see two charm packs sitting on mine.
What a lovely idea to pay it forward. I am looking forward to the Terrain yardage. I will have to choose carefully on my limited budget, but I would really love to have some. Enjoy your new baby and make lots of pretty things with it.
