Fat-Quarter Quickies Blog Tour Day 2!!
Good Morning! Welcome to my stop along the Fat Quarter Quickie's blog tour! You all know that Kathy and I are friends and I'm happy to have a chance to share her new book with you! In true Teacher's Pet form, this book is filled with great patterns and easy to read and understand instructions.
Kathy also has a Creative Grids ruler that is a companion to the book, along with good instructions on how to use it. It's the perfect ruler to go with all those precuts you've been 'saving'. The nice part though, you don't need the ruler to make these projects.
Kathy asked us each to pick our favorite quilt to talk about. No problem for me, hands down it's this Sail Away pattern. I love it's a nice classic design, and look at the wonderful quilting on that! To me this quilt is timeless.
What's the great thing about a blog hop? The opportunity to win something! Leave a comment for a chance to win and e-copy of Kathy's book, Fat Quarter Quickies. Then check out all the stops on this hop to better your odds of winning!

Oh, love that Sail Away pattern!
You are so right. This is a great book to win. I want to make Sail Away for myself. Actually, why not make them all? It's a great way to use up those fat quarter stash. Thank you for the chance to win. I also enjoy your blog and will be back again to visit you.

When I first started quilting, I wasn't really into scrappy. Now I really like it, and fat quarters are great for that!
This looks like a great book- I really like the Caribbean cooler pattern. Thanks for the chance to win such a fun book.

What a great book! I have a lot of fat quarters in my stash and would love to win a copy of this book for inspiration.

You are right... Sail Away is wonderful!!
I think that a certain FQ collection I have on a shelf, object of great admiration, but still sitting all stacked up and ribbon-tied, would look awesome in this pattern!!
Thank you!!

I have a bunch of fat quarters, but no particular rhyme or reason. I just buy ones that strike my fancy. I need this book to tell me how to use them!
I love Kathys books. Thanks for the chance to win.
I have a LOT of fat quarters! I need some patterns to start using them--so I can buy more, of course!
FQ are a staple of our stashes... knowing there is a way to maximize their use is great! thanks
It's time for some fat 1/4 stash busting!
Also love Sail Away. Thanks for sharing Kathy's new book and FQ ruler. I might even cut a FQ or two of my stash!
I like the Sail Away too. What's not to love when you pair half square triangles with lots of crisp white.
Love the Sail Away patterns. This book looks fabulous.
I like most of the patterns in the book. I don't have a large stash of fat quarters, but this may be a reason to buy some.

OK, Hope this is not too late. Sail Away? Now I like the quilt block and now the song, Sail Away, is running thru my brain pan sound track (and probably will all day long!) Thanks Pam!
A new book for my list of future acquisitions.
The great thing about blog hops is the hopping from blog to blog - get to see wonderful new work I wouldn't otherwise know about.
Sail Away is beautiful! The quilting on the white blocks is spectacular.
