Oh I am a winner

Got a wonderful email the other day to let me know that I was the winner in the Go! Bloom Giveaway that Sarah Vedeler hosted on her blog.

  

I won everything in the above photograph which includes the following:

• The GO! Bloom CA
• An AccuQuilt GO! Baby
• The three dies used for the quilt: GO! Daisy, GO! Tulip and GO! Fun Flower
• GO! Bloom Hand Dyed Fabric Collection by Ricky Tims
• AURIfil Silk Hearts Thread Collection

I am so excited as I love Sarah's work. I actually own her GO! Be Dazzled CD and so I decided to try out one of the designs today.  Here is the end result:

I really enjoyed the process of applique of my embroidery  machine and the designs are just wonderful. It was my first time also working on a set of designs that needed the fabric on the hoop to be turned when stitching out, I always was nervous of trying that but it worked  great as Sarah's instructions are wonderfully written and really clear.

Looking forward to get my package from AccuQuilt and from Sarah in the near future.
