Ribbon Blanket and Block tutorial and another Great Giveaway!!!

Go on over to Moda Bake Shop to check out my new tutorial for this Ribbon Blanket and Block. I don't know about you, but there are about a zillion babies due around where I live and I thought these would make the perfect gift, if I'm not to bush taking care of my own new baby that is! They are fast and easy! Or if you just plain like it but don't want to make one, go check out my etsy shop!


And to celebrate another finished project for Moda I thought it was time for a little giveaway! Soooooo here is what is included in this giveaway.


- A Charm pack of Hushabye (used in project above) by Tula Pink!

- A Charm pack of Odyssea by MoMo. (Would work great for a little boy Ribbon Blanket and Block.)


- Not pictured but included in giveaway, batting for block and ribbon for block or blanket!


Here is what you have to do...............


1. For one entry - Leave me a comment!

2. For two entries - Blog about this giveaway on your blog, with a link back to mine! (Be sure and let me know you posted about it on your blog.)

3. For three entries - Become a follower if your not already, if your are already just say so and I'll give you another entry. Giveaway will end Sunday at midnight. I will announce the winner Monday morning!


ALSO...............Don't forget to enter the giveaway I'm sponsoring below for this cute Skeleton Tassel! Scroll down to previous post to see a full picture!

I just found you on MBS. Apparently like many others on here. I was actually just preparing to get some of the hushabye for a baby gift in November. I adore this fabric. So, in an effort to save myself money (or just get some for my own personal stash) here is my comment. I also started following your blog and linked this contest to my blog!

Andrea said...

No, I haven't tried them on etsy. The secret may be using the phrase or name Tag. I think that was my mistake. If I were you I'd still go for, yours is adorable.

I saw your darling blanket and block on Moda Bake shop. This is so cute and a fantastic idea for friends who just had a baby. When my youngest was tiny, I had a friend give me a small toy shaped like a triangle with the ribbons at each point. My baby loves it. Great idea and execution.

Thanks

Warm Colors said...

I've seen other ribbon blankets on the internet and I'm sorry but I don't get the ribbon thing. Are the ribbons there because they are needed to finish the blanket or are they there for decoration? I've asked this same question on other sites but have yet to get an answer. I'm hope this isn't a rude question because I don't mean it to be, I just want to understand.
thanks.

Warm Colors said...

I've been logging in to the Moda site for some time and will continue to. I blogged about your site and will continue to follow your ideas. This is my second post and I hope to win your give away so I can make my first grand baby a blanket.
