101 Followers Giveaway! And another Bake Shop tutorial!

Giveaway is now closed.

I've hit 101 followers, 100 and 101 being about the same time, so decided to have a giveaway to celebrate!
 And another of my Bake Shop tutorials went up on the website today, check it out here.

So I decided to combine the two. I'd appreciate it if you'd leave a comment over on Bake Shop about the quilt there. Leave one here telling me you did so here, or anything else. Got it? Bake Shop comment about the quilt, comment here telling me you did so. That's it.

Oh the prize? Of course you want to know about that. Let's see here...how about a layer cake of Lollipop?


Giveaway will end on July 26th, sometime...lol I know better than to try and guess a time I will be able to draw.

 Tomorrow I'll show you what I did with the leftover jelly roll strips from Film Strip. Prefect if you haven't done this month's Year of Schnibbles.

NOTE If you can't see the follow button, try going to the new blog address www.caraquilts.com!
