Sew Mama Sew is hosting their May Giveaway Day again! I haven't participated in the last couple ones and since I've been so absent from my blog lately, I figured I'd make this a good one! (well at least I hope you all think it's a good one!)
I'm giving away my "Love in a Mist" quilt!
It's been folded sitting in my crafting closet for about a year and I think it's time to let someone have it that will appreciate it!
This quilt measures 35"x39" and it's hand quilted!
I love this quilt, but I'm willing to part with it.
More pictures and the original blog post for this quilt can be found here.
(you'll have to excuse the 'fold' pucker in the middle. that's just from being folded in my closet for some time!)

How to enter, you ask?
Well...here are the rules:
One entry per person
and all you have to do is leave a comment. (Please make sure if you are a "no-reply" blogger that you leave your email address. If there is no way to contact you, I'll draw another person)
This giveaway is open to anyone, anywhere in the world.
IF you are so inclined...I'd love some suggestions on places to go and see in the New England area! We are packing up our travel trailer and hitting the road for the whole month of July to explore New England: Maine, Vermont and New Hampshire and anywhere else nearby! So if you know of a great spot to camp, visit, see, eat at, shop at, whatever...please share!
Giveaway will close May 25th 8pm EST/5pm PST
I'll randomly draw a winner after that. (oh and that should be interesting since with this new blogger change I lost my numbered comments!) ;)
Good Luck!

ReplyDeleteThis quilt is charming. I especially love the detail in the actually quilt stitching. Thanks so much for the chance to win. Crossing my fingers! Have a great trip to New England. I've never been there, but you may want to look for places to see and eat on Yelp or Tripadvisor. They are my two favorite traveling sites. =)
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful! My little girls have a love for quilts. This would be a perfect size for them. I have never been to New England, but I think the thing I would love the most would be the fresh sea food. Thanks for the chance.

ReplyDeleteBAR HARBOR, MAINE!!!! If you go, eat at Geddy's(http://www.geddys.com/)! Just steps from the pier. And definitely, if you are there for breakfast---blueberry pancakes at Jordan's(http://www.jordanswildblueberry.com/ordereze/default.aspx)! So worth it! I love Maine. Hubby and I were married on top of Cadillac Mountain, Acadia National Park.
ReplyDeleteI've never been to the U.S. but if you decide to come to Portugal I'll be more than happy to give some suggestions :-)

That is a gorgeous quilt! I highly recommend visiting the town of Plymouth, NH..so pretty! And definitely visit the Keepsake Quilting store in Center Harbor. The town is in the Lakes Region and just perfect for camping/hiking, etc...
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic quilt you've made! It's just lovely and whomever wins this heirloom is lucky indeed.
ReplyDeleteI know I'm not a noreply but just in case, my email is assessions(at)hotmail(dot)com

ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, I've never been in the New England area.. the closest I've been is Upstate New York about 200 miles away from the Canadian border. I don't really consider New York as part of New England, so sorry no help there! If it is, the Palmyra area is very pretty :P
ReplyDeleteWith that said, The quilt is so sweet and darling, I can see why you loath to part with it!
Are you serious? This quilt is BEAUTIFUL! Wow! Thank you for being so generous. I am SO impressed with hand quilted items. I've been known to machine quilt, but by hand, WOW!

ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful quilt!
ReplyDeleteMy grandparents live in Maine. I would stop at Acadia National Park as well as Fort Williams Park in Cape Elizabeth, ME. Ive been to the Ben and Jerry's in Vermont and it is pretty cool; I think there was a fish hatchery right next door too that we saw(I was probably 10 at the time so you might want to check into that one).
ReplyDeleteWe got some amazing shots of bald eagles at Acadia...I love ME and really need to get back!!!
Wow - this is a beautiful quilt! Can't believe you're giving it away!
ReplyDeleteI've never been to Maine or any of those places really, but I've heard Bar Harbor and Acadia are nice in Maine!
Have fun on your trip!

What a lovely giveaway prize! I have a friend who is working on adopting a special needs girl from Russia and this would be an amazing addition to her fundraising efforts.

I don't know how you can part with that quilt-the handstitching is so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteSorry, no suggestions. NE is a bit far removed from Hawaii!
I bookmarked the original post a while back - such a nice pattern. You're a bit too early for apples... well, Concord's nice even without the apples - lovely lake and woods and all that, you can see/learn things about the transcendentalists (Thoreau and friends) and Alcotts... I like it. Or, if that's not to your liking, there's always Six Flags New England...
ReplyDeleteCute quilt! I would love to give this quilt a happy home!
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely beautiful! Thanks for your generosity!!
ReplyDeletenieveamor@care2.com
The LLBean outlet in Maine!
ReplyDeleteGasp! This quilt is gorgeous! I'll always love it :)
ReplyDeleteThe LLBean store and that downtown area are beautiful. There's some great little restaurants in that town (I have mommy brain and can't remember it...). At one of them chipmunks are so tame you can feed them from your hand on the outside eating!
I don't live in that area, but I would go visit Ben & Jerry's. But that's because I love ice cream too much! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat quilt!

Wow, what a generous giveaway! I've only been to Boston and Cape Cod so I won't be much help in your travel department. Good to see you back!
ReplyDeleteJennifer :)
Well, seeing as I live in Massachusetts, I have lots of ideas for you! LOL! If you drink, the Sam Adams brewery tour in Boston is fabulous! So fun! And the fireworks in Boston are amazing...the best in the country - they are on the 4th every year. You also may want to check out the Museum of Science, The Aquarium, or the art museum. They are all incredible! In Maine, we love Wells Beach. It's a comfortable, family friendly beach and you can walk up to Forbes for lunch and you will not be disapointed! I also highly recommend The Maine Diner on Rt. 1. It's SOOO yummy! One of my favorite places! If you are in central Mass, there is a list a mile long of fabulous restaurants in Worcester! That's where I live! :-) I hope you have a great trip and thanks for this chance to win!
ReplyDeleteLovely!

Such a beautiful quilt, you're very, very generous to give it away! As for New England, I haven't been, except for a few months living at an air base in Maryland (not terribly scenic, I fear) but I've always wanted to just take a month and ramble around there. Enjoy your trip!
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is so beautiful! Especially your colorful hand quilting! I'm from California and have never traveled to New England but I hope you have a fun trip! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteThis must be the most stunning giveaway without a doubt. Thankyou. Sadly I know nothing about New England as I live in England! Enjoy your break.

I'd love to check out coney island---ive never really been to newengland save for nyc
ReplyDeleteI've never been to New England... but in the south, I would recommend Charleston. Love it there!
ReplyDeleteabigail.lee {at] gmail.com
Wow, I'm floored by your generosity. This is a truly lovely quilt. I recommend Acadia National Park in Maine, especially in August or late July when there are generally fewer black flies about. While you're in that area, I also recommend Cadillac Mountain (you can drive up or hike) for some wild blueberries!
ReplyDeleteThis is an absolutely beautiful quilt!! I've never been to New England, but I would love to go!
ReplyDeleteWow. This is...I'm honestly speechless. What a beautiful quilt! And HAND quilted! AND you're giving it away!?! I admit I found you through Sew Mama Sew, but I can see I'm going to be staying awhile - beautiful work! Thanks so much for the chance. (I'm afraid I have no advice on New England, but if you want to come to the Black Hills I have plenty of great places to recommend.)
ReplyDeleteThis quilt is gorgeous! The winner will be very lucky!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous quilt! I can't believe that you are willing to part with it! You are a generous soul!

ReplyDeletecraftinomicon@gmail.com
Love the quilt!
ReplyDeleteI'm grew up in the Boston area, and I recommend the Swan Boat ride in the Public Garden, going to the NE Aquarium, the Freedom Trail walking tour (don't know how old the girls are. Combine history stuff (Paul Revere's house), House of the Seven Gables in Salem) with eating out (famous ice cream) and enjoying the scenery and beaches. There's a whale watching tour that leaves from Boston harbor. So much to see and do in NE-get on their state travel websites. Or the Boston Globe website--lots of ideas.
Have a great time!

Wow. What a great giveaway! I've never been to New England so I don't have any advice but it sounds like fun.
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful quilt and an amazing giveaway! Wow! I've never been to New England so I have no clue, sorry.

ReplyDeleteI know a baby who would love this quilt. As for New England, I can't help.
ReplyDeleteWoah! You're giving away a quilt?! Amazing!!! I love it!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful mini quilt - I love our handstitching too!
ReplyDeleteSorry I cant help with ideas for your trip as I am in Australia - actually not that far from our "New England" region.
I have never had the opportunity to travel the eastern seaboard, so my suggestions would not be very helpful! I am in love with your quilt. The stitching is gorgeous. I'm triple crossing each finger and toe :)
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! Thanks for the chance at the giveaway!
ReplyDeletethank you!
ReplyDeletea wonderful giveaway!
You have to eat at Cap'n Newicks in Maine. They have the best clam chowder. If you're are knitter at all, I would also suggest checking out Halcyon Yarn. I think they're in Portland.
ReplyDeleteoh my. i love this quilt. my fingers are crossed!
ReplyDeletei've only been to boston. and some random gymnasiums/hotels during my high school and college basketball years, but that probably doesn't help.
have fun!!!
sarah16@gmail.com
What an awesome quilt. I cannot give you any specific restaurants as I haven't been there in many moons but the seafood (shrimp, clams, lobster) in Maine is to die for. I'm so jealous of your trip. Have a fabulous time.
ReplyDeleteThank you for an awesome giveaway.
This quilt is beautiful! If you are the shopping type, Kittery, ME is great for all the outlets. If you are going to be in the Boston area, the Freedom Trail is really interesting. My husband and I did it last year and really enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the wonderful giveaway!

I JUST moved to Connecticut, so I would need the same info -- what to do in New England. I LOVE It's a Hoot, btw. Great giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI live in New Hampshire and cannot think of a way to narrow down a few great places! We have wonderful hiking in the White Mountains, but if hiking is too much you should take the auto road up to the Mount Washington Summit. If you are looking for some less challenging hiking (Washington really is a long, challenge of a hike) let me know and I'll send a little list of hikes we have loved. The North Conway area is really nice to visit. Great quilt shops: in Henniker is Quilted Threads and in Center Harbor on Lake Winnipesaukee is Keepsake Quilting.
ReplyDeleteWill you go to the shore? There are great beaches, especially north in Rye. While you are at the shore you should visit Portsmouth (there is a quilt shop there as well), and there is a summer open theatre at Prescott Park, the performances there are usually pretty well done. You will love it here!

I cannot believe you are gifting this gorgeous quilt to someone. It's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteOk, I know nothing about the New England area other then my favourite mystery series (Murder She Wrote) is set there...well at least most of the time! LOL.

ReplyDeleteThat quilt is gorgeous! I don't know how you can part with it, but lucky for us! I live in MA, right near Shelburne Falls. It's really beautiful here. The Deerfield River is LOTS of fun with kayaking and whitewater rafting if your into that. But we love to go to Wells Beach, ME for our yearly vacation! Awesome beach and great food every where! Good luck in your travels!
ReplyDeleteHave a great time on your trip! The quilt is so pretty. thank you for the chance to win it.

ReplyDeleteThat quilt is AMAZING! I am so impressed at your generosity!
ReplyDeleteI love New England! I went to college in Connecticut and Grad school in New Hampshire, and loved it!
In New Hampshire there is a great little town called Harrisville, that has an historic woolen mill. They spin their own yarn, and do weaving.
Woodstock Vermont is also a favorite - we stayed at the cutest B&B run by british ex-pats.... cant remember the name...
Eat Lobstah on the coast! Enjoy!
No idea about New England, sorry. But i do love that quilt!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilt! I'm afraid I don't know any New England sites, but if you ever head out west, let me know!

ReplyDeletethis is so beautiful./ thanks for the chance to win this.
ReplyDeletei would recommend my very favorite place, Prospect Harbor Maine. near(north of) Bar Harbor and several other small local harbors....there is the Winter Harbor lobster festivals and the Schoodic Arts Festival and a local Blueberry Festival all at that time of year. there are small beaches to explore as well as Acadia National Parks, Schoodic Peninsula. We go every year(since i was little, so forever) and it never changes much or gets old. i think you would love it.
I have never been up the east coast..so maybe I can hitch a ride with you? Sounds like a great trip to take! Lisa in Texas
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful quilt thanks for the opportunity to win it.
ReplyDeleteI am in Australia so can't help you on your travel plans but if you ever come Downunder I'd be more than happy to help with some suggestions on things to do and places to see.
I LOVE this quilt! Thanks so much for the chance!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful quilt, thanks for the chance to win

Gorgeous quilt! I don't have any suggestions for you for visiting New England, I live on the other coast. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI'm a Mainer, and I'd say my favorite places to go are mostly in the Bar Harbor area. Bar Harbor is also near Acadia, so it's on the way! It's a bit of a drive, so I'd suggest stopping in Portland (namely the Old Port) to foodie out. Flatbreads is an amazing organic brick oven pizza place, and there are tons of lobster places along the water. For fabric, try Alewives (http://alewivesgirl.blogspot.com/). It's a little out of the way, but totally worth it.
ReplyDeleteOh, what fun to spend a whole month in New England (in the summer)! I grew up in Maine, and gosh, you can't really go wrong! I encourage you to drive up the coast on Rte 1, rather than getting on the highway, so you can see the communities. Eat lobster rolls every chance you get! In fact, eat one for me!! And if you have room for fabric purchases...I wasn't a quilter when I lived in Maine, but one of my Canadian blogger friends always hits Marden's when she is in Maine for great deals on fabric - http://www.mardenssurplus.com/. Enjoy your trip, and thanks for the chance to win this wonderful quilt - I can't believe you are willing to part with it!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the quilt!

Wow, what a beautiful quilt!
ReplyDeleteI would recommend the Boston area. There is so much to do there, Salem, Gloucester, Plymouth (and Plymouth Plantation), Rockport, The Freedom Trail in Boston, etc.
Thanks!
Your quilt is beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteI love love new England. You can't go wrong anywhere on the coast, but I highly recommend lake winnapasake (not sure that's spelled correctly) in new Hampshire...it's very quaint! Martha's Vineyard is another personal favorite, as were the Kennebunks in Maine! Happy travels!
oh my! crossing my fingers and my toes!!
ReplyDeleteI've never been to New England, have a lovely time! I have to compliment you on this beautiful quilt, it's lovely!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely quilt. I've been to the great town of Burlington Vermont, but it was so long ago that I'm sure I wouldn't recognize it today.
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid I've never been to New England. It looks lovely though. Your quilt is gorgeous.
