Leap Day Giveaway

Today is Leap Day!! We get one extra day every four years. So how will you spend your extra 24 hours??

Such a Sew and Sew is hosting a Leap Day Giveaway Blog Hop. Each participant is hosting a Giveaway for just one day. TODAY!!

While I was looking through my quilting books, I realized that I owned TWO copies of 101 Fabulous Rotary Cut Quilts. Written by quilting veterans, Nancy J. Martin and Judy Hopkins, this book is the bible of rotary cut quilting. It contains favorite quilts from Rotary Riot, Rotary Roundup, and Down the Rotary Road.


Here are a few samples..........



Each pattern has complete instructions on making a full size quilt.

How would you like to have 101 Quilt patterns at your fingertips??

Just leave a comment on this post..............

Now remember, starting tomorrow, Google Friend Connect will no longer work for blogs other then Blogger. So if you have Word Press, Typepad, or your own domain, I am enabling email subscriptions starting today. At the right hand sidebar, right under followers, there is a field where you can enter your email address and receive an email with the latest posts. You can unsubscribe at any time and your email will be kept private and not used for any other purposes than to send updates. If you sign up for email, whether you use Blogger or not, you may leave a second comment for a second entry.

This giveaway will be open until 10:00 PM EST today. Please be sure I have a way of contacting you.

Enjoy your Leap Day!

How is it that I've never seen this book before?! And how is it that you manage to sew so much and still keep up on the news about Blogger changes so well? I'd feel out of the news loop without you! :) Hope you have a marvelous Leap Day!
