GO! Baby Fabric Cutter Giveaway

Yesterday I wrote about my new tool the Go! Baby Fabric Cutter and today I'm giving one of these 'babies' away thanks to the nice and very generous folks over at Accuquilt!  The incredibly lucky winner also gets to pick 3 dies to go with their Go! Baby Fabric Cutter. Check out the dies here, there is a huge selection you can choose from.

If you would like a chance to win this wonderful little helper (and of course you want to!)  please leave a comment to this post and tell me what your favourite quilt pattern or block is. I'd love to discover new ones! This giveaway ends this Friday (August 26th) at 8 PM Amsterdam time.  (edit: sorry giveaway is closed!) Winner will be announced the day after.  Make sure to either check back in time or leave a 'trail' so I can contact you in case you win this fabulous prize. Good luck every one!

P.s. I you haven't already please check out the tutorial I posted yesterday for the wonderfully cute Tonka & the Stars pillow!

    I haven't really quilted in quite a while. I'm so excited I found this giveaway though! I can't find it now, but I believe the pattern I really liked once was called stepping stones, it was fairly simple but turned out to be a great quilt.

    I love quilts with triangles. Flying geese are probably my favorites, but half-square and quarter-square triangles rank up there.


    My next favorite block(s) are mariner's compasses. I bet that those would be tough for AccuQuilt to make, tho. Ah well. Maybe this post will challenge them to make them! :)

    Hi Nicole, wow what a great giveaway! My favorite shapes are the basic geometric ones, squares, strips, triangles, circles, stuff like that, especially since I'm still a beginning quilter. Oh, oh - my fingers are crossed, wish me luck!

    p.s. I love your Tonka & The Stars pillow, so pretty!

    Even though I secretly hate to make half-square triangles, I am drawn to pinwheel quilt patterns. Scrap Bag Surprises is my recent favorite pattern collection - love how the patterns are written for yardage to buy or using up scraps!

    I’m a little obsessed with the double wedding ring right now, because I have a great idea, but am not looking forward to cutting it all out (hello, Baby Go!). But beyond that, I really like playing with pinwheels. They’ve made it into four! of the recent quilts I’ve been planning to start.

    I really like some of the modern quilting designs that are popular not really sure the names of blocks but more like contrasting colors like neutrals with bits of bright point of color scattered. MomtasticStitchery at gmail (just in case)

    I don't have a favorite pattern, because I love almost all of them. Right now, I'm very interested in doing a drunkard's path quilt like the one that was shown in the accuquilt newsletter. It was done in 2 different sizes, and in solids, and it was very contemporary and traditional at the same time.

    Yay, another chance to try to win this wonderful baby for my sis. She has always been my champion, encouraging me to do more to prove I really could. To point out to me my failures are not always that but a new and quirky way of doing things. She loves to quilt but her hands are wearing out and this would be a huge help to her. My way of giving back.

    My very most favorite traditional quilt block is called Interlaced Star - it lets you do lots of overlaid transparency affects with color.

    I would love to make a hexie quilt, but the thought of cutting out a bajillion hexies isn't very appealing. With the baby Go, it would be much easier.

  39. GranChris23 August 2011 at 09:38

    How can you pick just one block when there are so many to choose from. I think I would pick a very basic 4 patch or 9 patch because you can cut it up, match it with a flying geese to make a star or a snowball. You can do so much with a very simple block.

    oh, how exciting! I really haven't got a favorite quilt patten (to be honest) ~ really like to pick the fabric and let it 'speak' to me ~ then I figure what pattern would look best. However, I do love all the ways log cabin can be made and triangles are fun too.

I love this pattern: http://freespiritfabric.com/graphic-elements/gallerys/t201_1.pdf "Picnic Parade" by Jenean Morrison.
