Quick Column Quilts Blog Tour Winners
Drum roll please . . . Today I’m announcing the winners of the Super Giveaway for the Quick Column Quilts Blog Tour! Quick Column Quilts is the title of my newest book, which includes 13 linear quilt designs. Think columns of fabric, not blocks. It’s a refreshing approach for seasoned quilters and streamlined designs for quilting newbies.
Blog Tour Stops
To showcase my new book, Quick Column Quilts, and the companion TV series, I hosted a two-week long Quick Column Quilts Blog Tour. I’m pleased to announce that 27+ bloggers either featured various projects and techniques, or shared a book review. In case you’ve missed it, visit the links below to see each blogger’s creative postings:
