My Small World QAL 2

Hi!

So glad you've decided to join the #mysmallworldqal2

This will be done through IG and emails. (I don't want to start blogging again.)

I contacted Kerry over at 

http://verykerryberry.blogspot.com

And she graciously stated we may use her timeline and blog for this low key QAL. 

She just asked that we hashtag differently so, in my mind and need to KISS (keep it simple stupid), we'll use #mysmallworldqal2

Next I contacted Sarah over on her website and she has graciously offered paper piecing templates for us paper piecers.  Now, she's a crafty 'ol soul and will provide them under ONE situation only, you MUST photograph yourself holding your pattern book from Jen Kingwell OR the Quilt Mania Spring Edition 2015. Then she'll email them right along. She has told me that she will do this ONLY through email, no direct messages on IG. 

I plan on giving her a wee donation, link on her website, but she told me she will not withhold patterns based on donations, just that photo. Here's Sarah's link.

Lastly, small world story included (pun so very much included) recently I went into my local quilt shop to support local, I received a massive $25 gift card from them and went back to blow that money. Michelle at Cotton Patch Shop asked, " are you that person holding the QAL on IG?" 

I became giddy. Why yes, yes I am. I didn't even visit this shop but a week or so ago. So, I found out she is carrying the pattern book. Here's her link, and YES, they ship internationally, but wowza, quite expensive.

I personally purchased the pattern from Kimberly at...

So, that's the business stuff.

Here's the fun stuff...

The holidays might bring a wish list, maybe ask for that pattern? 

Or use your gift certificates to start planning your sky.

I'm excited to do "selfish sewing" this year.

Invite your friends.

Invite those that did not finish last year.

Their really are not deadlines or rules... Just a bunch of quilt lovers sewing.

Oh, please do NOT share patterns with others, Jen deserves revenue, as do our quilt shops....

Yours in quilts,
