EDIT - I'm on the list of blogs participating in the Fall into Fall Blog Hop Giveaway but I can't participate afterall. I have a trip scheduled in the middle of the giveaway - sorry!
*
I got a bit of a late start doing all the projects for A Year of Schnibbles (Sept '09 - Sept '10) coordinated by Sherri - A Quilting Life and Sinta - Pink Pincushion but I'm happy to post pictures of all 12 projects. WooHoo!!!
*

Schnibbles are fun, sweet patterns by Carrie Nelson of Miss Rosie's Quilt Co. I especially like them because I can try a line of fabric without committing to buying lots and lots of yardage. Sure helps with my budget! :-)
*

Thank you to Sherri & Sinta for all the hard work they put into coordinating the projects with Carrie and the parades every month.
*
Thank you to Carrie for all your hard work - prizes mailed every month to winners all over the world.
*
Thank you to all the sponsors - I was lucky and won a couple of times. :-)


My parade

I hope you've enjoyed my Year of Schnibble Parade. Thank you for visiting - I always look forward to your visits. :-)

In Friendship!

They are all gorgeous!! I'm not familiar with the patterns, but I wondered if you used the pattern choice shown on the patterns or if you chose your own. I think you've convinced me to try one.

Vivian said...

Your parade of lovely Schnibbles is definitely awe-inspiring. I must, I must, I must make some. I definitely have all the supplies I need.
They're too tempting to ignore, especially after seeing them altogether "in person" on your blog.

Kim Brackett said...

The parade was fun! And your quilts are divine! I've really enjoyed the monthly parades over the last year.

Kim said...

Aren't they all terrific? Do you have a favorite? I really like Roundabout made from Make Life fabrics--I've been hording that line!

Candace said...

I did enjoy the parade, they are all beautiful. Congratulations.

Karen - Quilts...etc. said...

I love all of these small quilts! wonderful work. I have a pattern for one of them that I have not gotten around to maybe next year as this year already has too much in progress.
I see we follow a lot of the same blogs, I'm going to check out your blog roll a little more - I keep forgetting to update my list.
