This book sounds like a lot of fun to read and a lot of fun projects. I would make a quilt with the jelly roll.

The holidays always sneak up on me and sounds like this would be a terrific time save while having fun rather than feeling rushed!

I wouls sew,sew ,sew. Quilting is therapy for med and takes me away to my neverland. All stress is gone and I can create and relax.

This fabric is awesome! The book is just what I need to fill all the down time I have. (LOL) I have a special granddaughter who loves the holidays. The fabric would go to make her a special holiday throw!

Wow, I would love to win this giveaway. I would use the gift to make some wonderful presents for my family and friends. I am sure the book would give me great ideas and the fabric would be used to make some of those ideas. I am sure they would get my creative juices flowing.

What a great giveaway! I love Mary Engelbreit's fabrics - always so bright and cheery. I would make a throw for the living room couch, or possibly a new tree skirt. Of course, who knows what ideas I might get from the book, too!

I loved this fabric even before I knew it was in the give-away. I would use it to make a Christmas quilt and as backings for Cross-stitch ornaments. Thanks for the opportunity to get it.

It's so exciting to me that my granddaughters now want learn to sew, almost as if that "sewing gene" is actually being physically passed down. I would absolutely use the ideas in this book to spark my granddaughters' creativity. And the beat goes on...!

Hi all, OH MY, this fabric would go so great in my 1920 farm house that we are remolding. I have a music room that I wanted to deocorate, I see a awesome musical wall hanging on the wall over my piano with my other instruments. :)

I just got the book I bought from e-bay and realized that it's not the same one after all. There are several 'Quilting In No Time' books. How exciting. So for this giveaway if I won, I'd definately be making Christmas gifts from all the wonderful ideas in the book. I'm always looking for great birthday gifts as well so I'm sure I could find something for everyone I love in this book to make for them.

I just bought this same book from e-bay last week and it should be here any day. Can't wait to get it. LOL

Seems I always procrastinate with Christmas gifts. I start with good intentions..or at least plan and don't follow through so that I'm stressing for gifts for the last minute. Smaller projects would ease that guilt of trying to make quilts for every kid and their spouses...I have 6 kids! I just can't do it and now with 8 grands, that's more guilt on the horizon. I should make a gift for everyone out of that book this year!

I would love to use the fabric for Christmas gifts for my family. Love the material!! Crossing my fingers! Thanks!!

I would love to win the giveaway. I would make small presents for my family for Christmas, as well as pincushions and other odds and ends for my quilting friends. Thanks for the chance to win fabric.
