February Block of the Month is HERE #4

Hello Friends,

FREE Quilting Pattern
It is almost February, the month of LOVE! We are spreading some LOVE here at Quilting For Less and we want you to join in! We have hidden (in plain sight, tee hee) somewhere on our site a small picture of our latest postcard. Although the postcard is on our "Postcard" page, that is not it. We can tell you that it IS on one of our "products" pages. (Oops, maybe I said too much!) ANYONE who finds it and emails us with the correct location will receive this pattern for FREE!! How cool is that! Tell your friends to come and look too! But.... don't tell them where it is! That will spoil the fun!! This is what it looks like!
ITTY BITTY Minature Christmas Stockings
We have also been working for a few weeks on a very special surprise! Our Christmas Stockings are always a hit, but now you can order them in a small size! These itty bitty miniatures are so CUTE! They are the exact replica of the larger Hand Knitted Christmas Stockings only smaller! In comparison;
Large size = approx. 6 1/2 inches wide X 24 inches long
Small = approx. 3 1/2 inches wide X 13 1/2 inches long.
And even better news!! These small hand knitted Christmas stockings are $6.00 less! They take the same amount of time to make but are just smaller. Oooo we love these!! These Miniature Christmas Stockings can still be personalized with a name of your choosing!!

New Stuff at www.QuiltingForLess.com



Here we are in the middle of January 2008! Just wanted to let you know of a few things that are going on at http://www.quiltingforless.com/




* We have some NEW clocks available and they are CUTE! Check out the Cherries Clock and the Fishing Clock. These clocks can be personalized with whatever saying, name or date you choose




* We have added a fun NEW pattern to our Quilted Wall Hangings. If you are a quilter or sew, you will appreciate this one! Quilter's Quote Wall Hanging


* Our Christmas Stockings have been a huge success > HERE
We have had a few request to have them face the other direction to match the ones you
already have. The answer to this question is YES! I have 19 stockings that I hung this year.
It is fun to add a new daughter-in-law or son-in-law or a new grandchild to this row of
stockings. Grandparents especially love these stockings. They also make a fun Wedding Gift
to start a tradition in a new family. Get started now with your own tradition!

* Our Personalized Photo Clocks would make a wonderful Valentines Day gift to give to a parent, grandparent, relative, teacher, friend or sweetheart. Use your own photo and personalize with a names and dates. For an example click > HERE
Happy New Year

Home from Disney World

We made it home from Disney world last night. We had such a great time. We took three of our grandkids which in itself was so worth the trip. Just to see their eyes as big as saucers was so worth it! The last day we let them get their faces painted. Here are pictures of Hailey and Tyghelyn and Hunter. They didn't want to wash their faces, EVER! Thank goodness for digital camaras!

Block of the Month

We are into our 3rd month of our Block of the Month at http://www.quiltingforless.com/! We would love to see what you have done with these FREE patterns. Scan or take a picture of your block and email me your picture. susan@quiltingforless.com. I will put these blocks into a special BOM Gallery at my website. Afterall, we learn from others works of art. Here is a sample layout of the total quilt and the first three BOM.
Read this article http://quiltingforless.com/block_of_month.html and it will give you some fun ideas on how to choose colors for your quilt. This quilt is a sampler of a lot of different blocks but using the same colors. Hope you have fun with this project!

Pay it forward Challenge

Okay, has anyone seen the movie "Pay It Forward"? If you haven't, it would be a great one to watch for the new year! Interesting enough is this.... I had watched the movie a couple of weeks ago. After I watched the movie, I was surfing BLOGS and came across a BLOG by Pamela Rice http://quiltsnmore.blogspot.com/ . She offered a challenge which I think is so cool!! So.... I offer the same challenge! Here is the challenge...

Join the Pay It Forward Challenge. It sounds like a lot of fun. Here's how it works:

I will send a gift to the first 3 people who leave a comment on my blog requesting to join this PIF exchange. I don’t know what that gift will be yet– it could be anything really- and you may not receive it tomorrow or next week, but you will receive it within 365 days, that is my promise!

The only thing you have to do in return is pay it forward by making the same promise on your blog. I have a lot of ideas that I want to try and I really like sharing with people so come on and join the fun.

You can let me know some of your likes or something about yourself if you want to give me something to work from or you can let me surprise you, the choice is yours.
