Our giveaway includes a 4" x 8" OmniGrid ruler, perfect for trimming all those Twilighty paper piecing patterns as you go. And a few of our favorite sparkly fabrics, because vampires sparkle and we quilt about vampires. Fabrics include a fat quarter each of white with iridescent sparkles (a favorite for Vampire skin), Hollyberry Fairy Frost (red with gold sparkles), Platinum Fairy Frost (silver with silver sparkles) and Diamond Fairy Frost (not shown, but for sure included, black with silver sparkles).
First, the rules.
1. Any comment/entry that contains the words, 'real vampires don't sparkle,' or any variation thereof will be immediately deleted. This is not up for debate because vampires aren't real.
2. Please, please, please edit your profile (Google, Twitter, Yahoo, AIM, Netlog or OpenID) to include your e-mail. We need a way to contact you if you're the winner. If you would prefer to keep your profile void of your e-mail or are using the anonymous commenter option, then leave your first name and e-mail in your comment in the following format: address (at) domainname (dot) com. If we can't contact you, you can't win. Therefore, any comment/entry that does not have contact information will be deleted.
3. Giveaway is open until March 31, 2010, the date of our anniversary.
4. Winner will be drawn on April 1st {no joke}. We'll probably draw by hand, but in the event that we're absolutely inundated with entries, we'll use a random number generator to select the winner.
5. A giveaway entry consists of a comment on this post.
6. Each entrant is allowed only one comment/entry per category (listed below), for a total of four entries. Multiple entries in the same category will be deleted.
7. Negative, profane and/or inappropriate comments will be deleted. This is left to the sole discretion of the TQC Administrator.
8. TQC Admin and Authors are not eligible for this giveaway.
Now, let's get to the nitty gritty. How do you enter?
1. Answer any of the following questions:
- What is your favorite quilting tool? OR

my Favorite Sparkly Vampire is ... well, I guess it's changed because my first thought is JASPER, and I know it used to be Edward. But I'm more team Jacob and after reading a fan fiction story it made me think of Jasper in a whole new light!!

Great giveaway and great rules. LOL. While I loved Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles I haven't kept up with the recent Vampire series (Twilight...but hope to). So, I'll answer another question...favorite quilting tool: Porcupine quill. Yes, a porcupine quill is a must have to help guide small fabric pieces into your sewing machine to ensure even 1/4" stitching at starting point (and frequently finish).

Hola cuantas reglas, pero son divertidas. Mira he recorrido los blogs de las chicas que hicieron manta para Joyce, me encantan y en este orden: camioneta de Bella,el castillo de los Vulturi y la Pusch.
Mi vampiro favorito de todos es Jasper, quizas porque controla las emociones, quizas por ese amor incondicional a Alice,por el esfuerzo de ser vegetariano, por lo bello del actor que lo interpreta, no se , el me encanta.
Estoy siguiendo nuevo misterio y por ahora elegi para novatos. Ya mostraré, esa tela del regalo es fascinante, seria bello tenerla para completar el edredon. Buen fin de semana.
I love my 8.5" x 24" ruler, excellent for cutting border strips.
All the TQC blocks are great but Bells's truck comes to mind. Her truck is practically a character in the books and makes me miss mine.
I'm a follower ;)

Hey guys! I've been following you all for a while now. :D

My favorite quilting tool is Photoshop, where I draw all my paper pieced patterns. :)
Alice is definitely my favorite sparkly vampire!
You rock!

My favorite is Edward. I'm so glad a friend of mine convinced me to begin the series two years ago. I've read it 3 1/2 times since. I'd love to use this fabric to create a little something for her for introducing me to the books.
I'm following you guys.
My favorite tool is my sewing machine. I began my first quilt by hand, and my goodness that was slow! Once I got a machine, unsophisticated as it is, it transformed the entire experience for me. Gotta love it!
My favourite tool would be my sewing machine.
My favorite quilting tool is my rotary cutter. I remember trying to learn to quilt before these came out and they have opened up an entire new world.

I'm going to go out on limb and say my favorite tool is my laptop! I've gotten so much information and inspiration via the internet and especially blogs that would have taken forever to accumulate through books.
I'd use this fabric and the ruler (in a size I don't have) to make a block for a coworker who loves Twilight and vamps in general and also quilts. She has it pretty rough and it'd be nice to do something for her that I know she'd like.
My favorite quilting tool is my small fiscar scissors with a spring to automatically open once a snip is made! It is also very sharp and perfect for applique.
my favourite tool is the stitch ripper - especially on the days that I don't have to use it!
and I'll become a follower as soon as I'm done here
