We posted last Monday about the Oh Canada! Maple Leaf Quilt Pattern being now available + a limited time offer of another pattern (fabric buckets) from Tamara Kate (see below). AND the Aurifil Janome Canada 150 Thread box giveaway.
Tamara Kate of Kayajoydesigns.com is one of our Janome Canada artisans who has been featured in several blog posts in the past. Tamara Kate designed this exquisite quilt below for our Canada 150 Limited edition sewing machine and featured in our Cross Canada Look book this summer. The quilt was also on display in the Janome booth at Quilt Canada in June in Mississauga, Ontario.
Please see the post last Monday for more information about this magnificent quilt and check out the links to the Pattern for the quilt and the limited time offer of a free fabric basket pattern when you purchase the maple leaf pattern
The colours in the thread box are based on the logo colours and quilt which tamara Kate designed. Please see below for info on how you can enter to win one of 2 boxes of this thread.
The Maple Leaf quilt pattern is available at Craftsy: https://www.craftsy.com/quilting/patterns/oh-canada-maple-leaf-quilt/503556
And for a limited time, every purchase of the Oh Canada! Maple Leaf Quilt pattern will entitle you to a free copy of my popular Variable Sized Fabric Buckets pattern (see details here: https://www.craftsy.com/sewing/patterns/fabric-buckets-variable-sizes/510467

If I should win the Aurifil box of thread I will use it this winter when completing my many quilt projects. I currently use Aurifil thread, but have very neutral colours and it would be totally awesome to add this wonderful colour selection to my thread stock.

I believe these threads would go pretty well on the scrappy quilt top that I just finished. I could use all of the colors to make fancy stitches on the quilt. It is about 42 inches square and I am not sure what I will do with. I just like to make scrappy things. So, I would sure like to win the giveaway.
