Each and every one of you!!!
Thank-you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to comment and share your lives with me! I enjoy reading each and every one of them and although I don't always respond, just know that you've touched my heart.
And here's just a sneek peek of my latest WIP. This is the first time for me to make a quilt from someone else's design. And I'm totally smitten. The pattern is curlicue by Chasing Cottons. Isn't it the bomb???
Ok, ok. I know what you all reeeeally came here for today, and so here it is, the winner of the fq's from The Fabric Quarter and the skillet handle pattern is:
#80!- Rachel- Who said, "Thanks for such a great giveaway! The fabrics are beautiful. Happy Valentine's Day!"
Congratulations Rachel! I'll be contacting you via email to get your address (unless of course, you read this and beat me to it!!)
~Penny
Yayy, Rachel!
I can see why you like that pattern, what a cool quilt. All those curves, though, it looks tricky. Show us more.

It's going to look great - terrific fabric choices! I just finished piecing that quilt pattern, myself. It was great to feel like a master of the curved seam by the end of it! Here it is if you'd like to take a look: http://pickledish.blogspot.com/2011/02/this-is-ogee.html

Hurray, Rachel (I thought it was me until I clicked the link...)
That is the coolest pattern. It looks great! It also looks difficult. Is it?

Oh! Your curlicue is going to be fab. I got the pattern with my FQly renewal so I'm looking forward to seeing some pop up in blogland/flickr for inspiration - love that flour sack print in there!!!

Congrats to Rachel! I like that quilt that you're doing a lot, I remember seeing it on the blog. It reminds me of vintage Christmas ornaments!

We heart you too Penny!
And that Curlicue quilt looks HARD! Pickledish's version was amazing too! I just got this new little foot for my sewing machine that is made for curves. its awesome [I mean the demo I saw was awesome...I have not tried it...]

This is a fantastic pattern but those curves kinda scare me-lol. I tried a similar quilt many years ago and never finished it because my curves were horrid. I'll have to build up my courage to tackle this design.
Yours is lovely. Enjoy your day.
