100 quilts for Christmas Linky!!

Hey everyone!  I hope everyone has had a fun and productive weekend!  Today is the first of three link-up days for 100 Quilts for Christmas!

Now's your chance to link up and show us the blankets/quilts you are donating for the 100 Quilts for Christmas.  By linking up today you are eligible to win this week's giveaway donated by the lovely Megan and Heather of Fresh Poppy Designs and Quiltstory!  Two linkers will win a pattern of their choice from Heather and Megan's Etsy shop.

Like this one - probably my favorite!

Not only do they have some darling patterns and oodles of inspiration,  they are doing such an amazing job bringing quilters closer together with Quilt Story! (I may or may not have a quilt being featured there soon - stay tuned...)

AND a link up today will also enter you into the grand prize drawing with all of this awesome loot!  Of course every quilt you link-up (regardless of which link-up day) will be entered for the grand prizes, which will be on December 15th at Katie's blog!

For details on 100 Quilts for Christmas visit Aunt Spicy or Katie at Bike, Swim, Quilt.
Thanks for helping spread a little cheer with quilts for those in need!

I didn't have the productive weekend I was hoping for.  Loss of sleep due to a miserable little girl with pink eye kind of thwarted my sewing mojo.

Please put your name or blog name in the name spot, not your project name.  The picture let's us see what it is!  This way we can get to know each other better!

Have you heard of the game fat dog?  It's where you lie around and do nothing after eating a big meal.  Well, that's what sew & tell is up to today.

But don't forget on MONDAY there will be a linky here for the 100 Quilts for Christmas!  See abbreviated details and giveaway info here.   But just a sneak of some of the loot...

You totally have time to whip up a blanket this weekend. I'm going to!  Come back on Monday for the linky - aka, your chance to enter.

AND don't forget to link up to Amy's Challenge Week on Monday! My plan is to have some skirts finished. I'd better get busy!

Oh how I love a good charity project for Christmas! It's something I think can keep the holidays centered on what is really important.

Aunt Spicy has teamed up with Kate at Swim.Bike.Quilt to host this awesome quilt project for Christmas. I feel honored that they have asked me to help them out this year!

Go read the entire post about the project HERE.  And then come back on Monday November 29, to my blog and you can link up your quilts/blankets for donation on a special edition of Sew & Tell!

By linking up your blankets you will be entered into a drawing for that week (from the Quiltstory/Fresh Poppy Design gals) and also entered into the GRAND PRIZE drawing which will take place after December 15th.  It's going to be a LOT of fun!

I'm planning on doing at least one blanket, if not more.  I'm going to donate them to my local Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society who helps underprivileged military families in my area.

Let me know if you are going to participate and where you will donate!

Yay Aunt Spicy and Kate for thinking up such an awesome idea and then DOING IT!! xo
