For a chance to win a copy of Nancy Zieman the Rest of the Story—A Memoir of Faith, Family, and Friends, published by Nancy Zieman Productions, LLC, please leave a comment below. One random winner will be selected.
The randomly selected winner of the 10-20-30 Minutes to Recycle Jeans book from Nancy’s Notions from the March 12 and 19 blog posts is Christa Martin.
Her comment is: Thank you for the opportunity to win this book by Nancy. I sew almost every day and Nancy inspired me to begin making quilts about 3 years ago. I have now made over 30 and I enjoy the process so much that I hope to make many more. I have several pair of old jeans that I’ve been saving and trying to decide what make with them. I’m sure this book would inspire me to sew them into great new projects
Happy Sewing,
Team Nancy Zieman

Thank you for this contest. I came very late to quilting, and sewing too for that matter. My mother was a seamstress extrodinair. She was making quilt block pillows 60 years ago. The cathedral window reminded me of hers. They are all beautiful. When I discovered Nancy on PBS I was persuaded to try again. Such a teacher. I will try now and forgive my mistakes.

Congrats to the winners!
I loved meeting Nancy Zieman a few years ago at an event. She was so congenial to everyone. I will cherish that weekend forever.
Sherri Wiley
I loved Nancy, so much, when she passed it was like losing a sister. When I first found her sewing show, I was a you mother, who loved to sew and through Nancy’s tips, she made my sewing so much easier and enjoyable. I met her a few years ago. She was teaching me yet another way to make my sewing skills better and I made sure I got a front row seat, so I could tell her how much she meant to me. She was so very special. I would love to read the rest of the story.
