Welcome to Sunday Funday Giveaway week one. Would you like to win a Gypsy Girl charm pack and Aurifil thread sampler?
Aurifil has donated a Thread Sampler that contains five different colors in five different weights.
My favorite for machine piecing is Aurifil’s 40 weight Mako Egyptian Cotton. It’s a strong weight for piecing yet it’s still thin. I love machine quilting with the 50 weight because it’s so fine and blends nicely into fabrics. Try a heavier weight if you want your thread color to pop a little.
In honor of *finally* finishing up my english paper piecing project, I’m adding a Gypsy Girl Charm Pack from my stash.
Did you know one Moda Charm pack will produce 168 hexies?! After blood (needle pricks), sweat (hand piecing in a kayak), and tears (frustration), I now have a lovely square of hexies. What should I make with it? Maybe a wall hanging?
Be sure to check out the schedule of bloggers who will be participating in Sunday Funday Giveaway’s over the coming weeks. Contact me if you’d like to join in!
To enter this giveaway just follow the Rafflecopter instructions.
Winner will be announced Wednesday. Happy Sunday Funday!

My favorite sweet treat? I thought Baskin Robbins Pralines and Cream would be it for me for life. But this summer I tasted Baskin Robbins Caramel Turtle Truffle, and I was converted! I am a sucker for anything with caramel and chocolate in it.
Thanks for the really CUTE giveaway!

Julie thank you for the chance to win this sweet prize. I am making a charm hexie quilt with 1.5 inch charms and I am totally out of new fabrics.

Thanks for the giveaway. All my friends are making hexis every chance. I have a few in the works but I don’t know what I want to make with them either. ??

Hmmmmm…. I love sweets and my favorite treat would have to be coffee flavoured icecream!!!
August 11, 2013 at 7:28 am
Ice cream, it’s 100+ degrees lately. Yay for Sunday Funday!
August 11, 2013 at 7:30 am
This giveaway is perfect because I have my own hexi project going (complete with the blood, sweat, and tears that go with it) and could use more prints!
August 11, 2013 at 7:48 am
Fabric is always a “sweet treat” but assuming you are talking about food, I’m partial to ice cream.
August 11, 2013 at 7:54 am
Always chocolate!! Thanks for a lovely giveaway.
August 11, 2013 at 7:55 am
Chocolate and quilting go hand and hand. How many quilt store dont have a piece of chocolate for you after a class. Same way Aurifil thread is to fabric a “sweet treat”
August 11, 2013 at 7:57 am
In-n-out burgers chocolate shake is my current favorite sweet treat – yum! 😉
August 11, 2013 at 7:57 am
What cute fabric! I’ve never tried Aurifil thread. Looking forward to seeing what you do with your hexies. Thanks for having a giveaway.
August 11, 2013 at 7:59 am
Such a great prize! I’ve never had a chance to work with Aurifil and the charm pack looks wonderful. Thanks for a chance to win!

Awesome giveaway! My fave treat is an apple fritter from a local donut shop. They’re so good they should be illegal.
August 11, 2013 at 8:20 am
Would you believe I just learned about aurifil thread about 6 months ago? I love the fact that there is no lint from it!
Happy Sewing!

August 11, 2013 at 8:58 am
Hi! My favorite sweet treat is the all-American ice cream cone!! Another one is this really sweet deal! I always use aurifil thread and the charm pack is perfect because I am in the process of making a scrappy 1″ hexie quilt, so I could use some more charm squares as I just ran out!! Talk about great timing!!!! Thank you for the chance to win!
August 11, 2013 at 9:12 am

I don’t quite have a sweet-tooth. But when I do crave something sweet, I always look for anything “strawberry-ish” in reach. If I could keep up with it, I’d always keep all the ingredients for Strawberry Shortcake on hand – that’s the perfect light, yet refreshing treat I could always devour!
August 11, 2013 at 10:16 am
What a wonderful opportunity. I didn’t realize that a charm pack would make that many hexies – great to know!
August 11, 2013 at 10:17 am
Oh and my favorite sweet treat is either cinnamon rolls or cheesecake
August 11, 2013 at 10:21 am
I absolutely cannot narrow it down to just one favorite sweet treat. I have a HUGE sweet tooth. I guess I will say doughnuts, though. If I have to choose just one! (And thank you for the giveaway!)
August 11, 2013 at 10:23 am
