Unfortunately for most of us that's not something Ryan Gosling's going to be whispering in our ears anytime soon.
But I am. I want to quilt for you. For reals.
Here's the score. Do you have a top just waiting to be finished, a design you've put off because you know you'll never quilt it? I want to quilt it for you, so I've decided to do a giveaway. I'll pick two projects (one smaller than 60" by 60", one larger) and custom quilt them on my longarm. Together we'll come up with a quilting plan to best accent your quilt, and I'll quilt it for you within a month of receiving the top.
What do you have to do? Write a post showing the top you'd like quilted, why you'd like it quilted, maybe some ideas of how. Publish the post anytime this month, including my chelsea quilts giveaway button and linking back to my blog. If you win, provide the quilt top, back, and batting (back and batting must be 4" bigger all around than the top) and pay for shipping in both directions. I'm in Canada so keep in mind that shipping might be more expensive and slower than in the US.
July 1st I'll open a linky party where you can link up your posts for one week. Then I'll let mr random pick 2 winners. This should be fun!

Oh, Chelsea, what an amazing giveaway! I'm off to take stock of my unfinished projects!
ReplyDeletewow what an awesome giveaway!! very generous of you as well!
ReplyDeleteHoly cow! Awesome giveaway! I have two twin sized monsters I would love long-armed, but they are for my twins. So I don't think I can have one quilted LA and the other on my old machine. That poor boy would definitely know mommy made it. Maybe I can get this English Paper Pieced project done in a month (HA!).
ReplyDeleteI am working on a quilt top for my mom right now only four blocks to go!! I will be entering this one!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome :-) I don't think I'll have a top done to quilt, but I'm printing out this meme for my sewing room, though. Too hysterical!
ReplyDeleteHoly awesome giveaway! I'm hoarding years worth of tops that I will never quilt and they really do need to see the light of day again. Off to write my post....
ReplyDeleteCount me in! I have a Backyard Baby quilt that needs to be finished. Do you accept Canadian quilts??
ReplyDeleteoh dear me... i am totally and utterly in! ;)
ReplyDeleteSuch a fab idea, I wonder if my precious will be done in time...
ReplyDeleteOh, man, if it wasn't for the Canadian shipping rates, I would do this in a heartbeat!
ReplyDeleteThis is so awesome! I know just what quilt top I'd like to enter, if I get it done {big if} :)
ReplyDeleteI have the perfect twin quilt I'd love to enter, but I don't have a blog to post on. Will you accept Flickr entries with a link back you?

ReplyDeleteWow this is the best news! I have a top for my brother's Christmas present that has been on the back burner for ages...even if I don't win, it will give me inspiration to work on the back this week!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! Hmmm...better get a quilt top finished! :)
ReplyDeleteOh, how I wish I hadn't just spent a week doing a nothing special quilting job on my recent project!! I could seriously just chop off a hand. I would have loved to have a quilt professionally done! So, count me out....
ReplyDeleteVisiting from Echinops and Aster! Just in the nick of time I might add ;) Off to post,about the BEST EveR Giveaway!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome giveaway. I wish I had a quilt top though. :( I'm a very slow sewer, so there's no chance I'll be able to jump on this one. So sad. :( Maybe you'll hold another . . . or maybe get Ryan to have a party???
ReplyDeleteaww that's a great offer, but international shipping for a whole quilt ehh I do want to eat something every day - but I will tell about the offer
