Julie Creus in La Todera’s booth at Fall Internatonal Quilt Market in Houston |
Let’s get this party started! This is the first of many patterns and goodies in my Ever Sew Thankful Give-Away, and I’m starting with a bang!
Julie Creus of La Todera Sewing and Craft Patterns has donated four patterns, and they are sooooooooo cute! I met Julie at last year’s International Quilt Market, and just loved her designs. Julie’s patterns made a big splash there, and she was back this year with fresh, new designs to make and wear or decorate your house.
You can make the flower on the bottom using Julie’s Camelia Gigantus Brooch pattern for her “big mama of flower brooches” – 6" across. Now that would make a statement on a lapel or hat! The white-and-pink flower on the top is Julie’s Kanzashi Flower Fascinator pattern. (Note that items made from these patterns are for personal use only; they are not to make and sell.)
These beauties are made from the Dinner Plate Dahlia pattern (the big purple flower), and Julie’s Cymbidium Orchid Brooch pattern (the green and pink orchid below).
Here are the patterns I’m giving away:
Here’s your chance to win. First, take a look at the La Todera website. Then leave a comment after this post and tell me which of her designs you like best (it doesn’t have to be one of the ones I’m giving away.) I’ll pull four names at random at 9 p.m. on Saturday Nov. 19, and send you one of the four patterns. WE HAVE WINNERS! upstateLisa, cat in tassie, Vickiquilternp and Debra have each won a pattern.
What great flowers! I really like the Camelia Gigantus Broock as well as the Dinner Plate Dahlia.
ReplyDeleteHope to see you Tuesday night!
I love the Camelia Gigantus Brooch pattern!
ReplyDeleteWhat fabulous patterns - I love the flower brooches, especially the Dahlia
ReplyDeleteI liked the strawberries, but would love all of them. Carolyn Bailey
ReplyDeleteI love all of her flower patterns, most especially the Camelia Gigantus Brooch and the Dinner Plate Dahlia. There's just something about giant flower pins that are so much fun. I'd imagine that anyone wearing them must smile all day. :-)
ReplyDeleteShe has some cute stuff! I really like the star shaped pin cushion and the berry brooch too! But the flower you are showing on your FB page is just stunning! She has a wonderful imagination! I love to see what new designers have to offer, just gets you thinking in all new directions. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteBerry Bunch was my fav. They all look fun.
