It's time for some PRESENTS. . .
I was thinking today that I would love some virtual presents from each of you. Nothing expensive just a sweet comment telling me what kind of virtual quilt related present you're bringing to the party and then you'll be entered for today's giveaway. Thanks for playing along. I look forward to seeing what you're going to give me (remember, we're pretending here).
I'm so excited! Can you tell??? Bring on the Presents!!! *smiling with excitement*

It's a sweet present for one of the lucky party goers. I was INSPIRED by the mini purse that I've blog about in the past (you'll see the tutorial on my sidebar) so, I designed a bigger mini purse (or gift bag) that holds a 5" Charm Pack with room for other things too. It's a great size for any little girl's birthday party or a sweet handmade gift for your quilty friends too!
The Bigger Bitty Bag is designed and made by me using Moda's new Patisserie Collection by Fig Tree & Co. I've included a 5" Charm pack of Joanna Figueroa's Patisserie Collection along with a handmade (by me) needlecase and tissue holder. You will also see a sweet treat that I've thrown in too.
P.S. You have 24 hours to post a comment and I will pick a winner tomorrow late afternoon.

No problem...she'll do it for you. Don't like to do the binding? She would love to do THAT for you, too. With her help, you only have to do the parts you find FUN! LOVELY prizes again today, Kim. You are amazing with the stuff you make!
LOVE the Bigger Bitty Bag and all the goodies to go with it. I am swooning over that fabric line.

Okay....So I love this little gift you are REALLY giving away!! I am so excited!! This is so fun!! Thanks for letting us all play along!!
Hmmm, I would send you one fat quarter from every fabric I own and from my store, I hope you like 1930's as i have thousands of them!!
I am bringing you a friend that is going to do your housework and laundry for an entire day so you can do nothing but sew, sew, sew. If she gets all this done, she said she would even help you by pressing for you while you sew.
I love your prizes! This is really fun!
Ok...I just KNOW you AND your family will love this...I will give you a freshly baked loaf of my Orange Citrus Bread....to go with your Raspberry Peach Freezer Jam...the receipe that I have been drooling over for the last few days...gotta make me some!

For this party I would make my decadent 3 chocolate cake complete with fresh strawberries. And as a little thank you for being such a great hostess, I would give you a basket filled with FQs in your favourite colours, pretty threads, and a couple of project patterns.

I love going to parties. The gift I would bring for you is something I would love. A featherweight sewing machine. OOOOOOOhhhhh, lucky!
I would bring my famous spinach dip, and for a gift, hmm, i would lend you 2 sweet puppies to give you bunch of doggie kisses.
These are adorable, as I've already won a prize, please don't enter me, but if I were to bring a gift it would be a shoulder to lean on, a pair of hands to help or hold, an ear to listen and a heart to receive, or give.
Love those prizes! I am giving you the complete line of your favorite fabric. I am bringing crawfish gumbo to the party.
So here is my virtual present...one I'd like to have as well...it would be the ability to just snap your fingers and have any fabric you wanted or needed appear...just like that...so anytime you see something on-line or on a blog...there it is right at your fingertips!
Oh I hope I win!
Love your gifties. What i would bring is an innovetive ruler by an Australian designer. It's an adjustable locking ruler by Westalee Designs & comes in a variety of rulers. They are really great. Hugs, Jeanette
Chocolate! And a piece of hand printed (by me) OOAK fabric for your next project.
Kim you are much to generous.
I will be bringing the cocktails since we will be piecing 1/4 inch hexagons and after a few drinks no one will care how small they really are.
Holy Cow Kim -- what a GREAT giveaway! You always have THE BEST giveaways!!!
I'll be bringing a party in a box. All decorations in red, white and black of course. A big Happy Birthday banner, streamers, a few fresh flower bouquets for the tables, bowls of m&m's and peanuts, a brie wheel appetizer, little bitty bags with mini squares all neatly tied inside for giveaways for all the guests (I've learned from the master LOL) and of course, my Mom's best ever three layer chocolate birthday cake. (Oooh, and I won't forget the ice cream!)
Kim ,
I would bring you a gingher rotary cutter with refill blades. I have one and it is the best!
on a side note tomorrow is my real birthday and your giveaway would make a great gift. hehe
have a great night
Oh I love this party idea! How Fun!! I would give you a special sewing machine needle that would never get dull, go through anything and never bend! I would give you a rotary cutter that would never dull, no matter how many layers you cut through. How about a pair a scissors that never needs sharpening!! And the gift of time! Time will slow down and let you get done all that you need/want to get done (epecially for all of us) Happy B-day!
Heather
Hmmmm.... What would you like??? How about some yummy new FQ's (hehe) I think that would be a great "present" to give to you!!!
p.s. I love all the stuff that you are giving away...i hope I win.
Thanks for offering these terrific giveaways! To the party, I'd bring a slow cooker loaded with dinner, to simmer away while you sew - the perfect no-work supper, so you can sew all day.
If I had answered this earlier today, I would have given you both of my children, but now they are back to being sweet so I guess I'll keep them. That really wouldn't have been a nice gift:P
I will bring homemade sticky buns and for your gift I would make you a quilted Christmas stocking in red, white, and black!
I love your giveaway:)
Your virtual gift from me will be a Fat Quarter bundle of Manzanita Red Black by Joel Dewberry. The whole line is in lovely red, black and white. It will fit right into your stash. Enjoy!
Kim your Party is sooo much fun. I'll bring the love and appreciation from all of us bloggers and delicious ice box cake. YUMMY!!!
What a fun party! I would bring my best wishes for your continued success and some M&Ms.
Sherrie
I would find you some red/black & white fat quarters or jelly roll that you could use to make something in your favorite colors. And of course whatever chocolate is your favorite - we can never have too much of that can we!

I would bring a clean-up crew for after the party. Oh! And a bag of chocolate chip cookies,freshly made!
Hmmmm, since I am from Alaska, I would bring you some alaska fabric with women in kuspuks and pretty flowers on it. I would also bring party favors, luggage tags, that I make. While you are looking at all the goodies, I would love to do all your bindings. I love your site, your inspiration, and all the little goodies you make, Can't wait for the instructions on those little goodies.
Diane in Alaska
OMGosh who's party is this? I love your giveaway. It has bee so much fun! Now for you, I am bringing you a wool applique penny rug. The rug is a brown tweed with an angel in green on it. There are 3 tongues and pennies on each side. I know it will be one of your favorite gifts.
I would give you a trolley needle - great tool for prepping applique!
Since I'm from Maryland I would bring you a bushel of steamed blue crabs and we'd have a nice crab feast with all the trimmings!!!
I have fallen head over heels for the Patisserie line and I love what you've done with it. I sure hope I win today's contest :)
i'm going to go with what my son told me to do... i'd bring you some Oregon State Beaver fabric to make a lap quilt. (he's a huge OSU fan) And with that maybe a gift certificate from the Stitchin' Post in Sisters Oregon. (it's a regional famous quilt shop)
I've never been to a virtual party before, but this sounds like fun. For my party gift I would bring you and all your friends some homemade applique glue that I just blogged about on my post tonight.
Everyone needs a party favor just for showing up.
Love, Love , Love your goodies! I would bring myself and offer to be your helper for a day...I would love to help you cut, iron and sew! Just think what you could get done!
Mary Jo
What great stuff, how can you bear to part with it?
My present for you would be an "ironing wench". Just be nice to her.
My present for the party would be a big bowl of my Great Grandma's Pistachio Pudding! It's fantastic and I regret all the years I wouldn't eat it just "cause it's green!" So as a tribute to my lovely Nan, the little Irish lass she was, I would bring some green pudding!
My party gifts to you would be chocolate truffles and a gift certificate for a pedicure or a massage, your choice. Personally I recommnend the massage. Great for relaxing the shoulders after a hard day of sewing!
OK Kim, I'm kind of late in joining the fun, but please I'd love to be included! Besides, I'm bringing you a red, black and white Apron!!! and an Idaho Spud Bar! Yeah. Ooo and I do love Patisserie and all the great things you are giving away! Thanks so much, here's hoping from Idaho.
I am so excited to come to your party and bring you a Sherbert Bali Pop and a pattern to go with it! Your prizes are to die for!!
Wow, love,love,love the bag and the colours! Ok lets get this party started! I would love to give u a gift voucher for somewhere like Gail B's so you can go mad and buy what you want! and maybe a roatery cutter with a bow on it!
Hmmm... that fabric looks vaguely familiar...I love the way everything turned out! Very cute. You are so speedy. :)
Okay, I would bring you a big, fat gift certificate for your favorite quilt store. :)
Thanks again for the party invite!
You are so sweet and generous, as are all your virtual friends! I would bring a stop watch, to allow you to slow down or stop time so you could finish up a WIP or new project that keeps getting pushed to the back burner, waiting for a quiet day to finish it up.
I would bring you a personal chef and cleaning lady so that you could spend all your time quilting instead of cooking and cleaning! At least, that's what I would love :)
Your giveaway gifts today are just lovely and you are so generous to part with them!
If I were to attend this little party, I would bring a few slices of the yummy chocolate cake I just made. Because we all need a little sugar to keep the creative juices flowing.
PS. Thanks for the fun giveaway!
I can see a lot of RSVP's here.....I'll bring fat quaters of Indian fabric, with lots of Indian motifs...Love to see your work using Indian fabric.
Hi Kim-
Since I am a vintage kind of girl, I would bring you a featherwieght that has been custom painted RED just for you! Then I would probably bring my Hello Dollys and lemon squares in a really cute vintage pyrex dish, covered with an embroidered dishtowel.
I would bring my apron collection for everyone to wear and we would all get a group photo to remember the fun we had at your virtual party!!!
OMG that would be sooooo fun:)
I hope I win those goodies!
Lori
P.S. Thanks for entering my giveaway that I'm doing on my blog!
I would bring you a lined basket with multiple pockets, and each poccket would hold custom designed to hold scissors, thimbles, quilt marking tools, a glue pen, tracing paper, graph paper and the list would go on. Included in the basket would be a block keeper to hold precious blocks while working on them. Also in a secret pocket would be some New Zealand inspired materials with kiwis and other native flora and fauna. From Jeannette, Petone, New Zealand.
my present for you is the little sheep pincushion on the wodden spools because a busy girl couldn't have enough of them, but take care it loves to watch you sewing. Another gifts: yummy chocolate cupcakes with caramel for the sewing break.
I think I would bring a gift certificate for your favorite local quilt shop......you know for all the little extras that come up when making a quilt :) (My husband says they are impersonal, but gift cards happen to be my favorite gifts! LOL)
Terrific gifts, the fabric is so pretty! I'd bring you a bag full of your favorite FQs, a Black Forest Pie and a helping hand!
Oh....what fabulous gifts....you are so generous!
I would love to win....hope you are enjoying your week....
Vanessa
I would bring a little quilt kit of tumblers for you to make. It would be fun to see how you chose to lay the quilt out with my fabrics.
I am always cutting little tumblers from leftover pieces of every piece of fabric I cut.
this is a most generous gift and I have to say I LOVE the fabrics you chose. REd and green...well my favorite fabric color combo!!!!
so bright and happy :)
thank you .
Kathie
OK, for your party I would bring you my favorite brownies, a big smile and a warm, sweet hug!
I would bring a box of Clover Mini applique pins which are just fantastic and one of my favourite accessories at the moment
What a cute giveaway gift you girls will give one lucky winner..
Take care!
Oh my, I am stunned at what you are giving away! For my virtual gift to you, because I am a knitter first and new to quilting, I would bring a hand-knitted shawl and "mitts" to your party to keep you warm and comfy when you are working at your sewing machine. My sewing room is pretty chilly in winter (I originally spelled winter as whiner...hmpf!) so I have knitted items to ward off the chill! What color do you want? vbg
I would bring one of my new pear pincushions. Lovely gifts.
Such a great giveaway. I would bring you six inch squares of my favorite black, red and white fabrics. Maybe some yellow ones to add some kick, and some really nice pins I found that are my favorite to use, to pin them together.
Oh - Kim - you have outdone yourself yet again. What a darling collection you've made for your gift to a special winner.
I think I'm going to bring some red/white/black fabric with variegated thread wrapped up in a red/white FQ tied with a satin black ribbon.
Here is my virtual gift to you. I year's supply of thread and sewing needles to keep you sewing up a storm. Love your little bags and things. They are beautiful.
Mary
Wow, what do you give the girl who has everything?! Since you love a good "eat" like me, I would have to bring my famous Chocolate Pound Cake to share with everyone. The gifts are beautiful...
I will bring you 29 spools of quilting thread in various colors and an applique block to use as a focus block in a quilt.
Ah, my gift to you....1 very skilled, on call 24-hour cleaner our rooms/massager of sore muscles (from all that time you'll be able to spend sewing)/tamer of chaos helper bee. Not only will she/he keep you tidy and your muscles relaxed, he/she will financially support your sewing addicition and run all necessary sewing errands.
I really love your little bags. They are on my short list of projects.
I'll be wrapping up what all quilters would love to have...a full time housekeeper, cook and gardener! That way you can stitch your days away with out being interrupted by cleaning, cooking and yard work!
Oh man, I am not worthy! This is so much fun. If I were coming over I'd bring food - because thats how I love people. Your giveaways are soo cute!
I'd have to send along a gift card to a great fabric shop (I'm new to quilting so you'd get to choose) and then the link to all their fabric online without prices so you'd get to choose whatever without thinking of the price. I think the gift card would have to be limited somewhere so you would have space for all the fabulous fabric and tools you'd buy. But wouldn't a great shopping spree be fun?!
Happy Blogaversary! I just started reading a month or so ago and you have some beautiful things on here!
I love this party! I would bring you a batch of my homemade chocolate chip cookies, and an EZ Angle ruler for cutting half square triangles.
I would bring you a batch of my famous Snicker-bar brownies. They are sooo good, and decadent enough to only warrant being made for special occasions. I would also bring you a cute springy apron along with a stack of never-seen before amazing black, white and red fat quarters all stacked up and tied with a big red bow! Happy day! Your prizes are SO CUTE! Thanks for the generosity.
Well I have the gift wrapped, the cake and refreshments ordered and now just have to wait for the party to begin. Inside the gift is a genie lamp that will grant you 3 wishes, time in a bottle to use whenever you want, sunshine and laughter to brighten the day, and of course oodles of fabric in all kinds of yummy colors and flavors like layer cakes, honey bums, and jelly rolls. The invite list includes family and firends.
Happy Blog Anniversary.
Sheila
Another fun party! Where do you come up with all these really great ideas? I love your giveaway! You do really beautiful work and are such a creative lady! My virtual gift to you would be a basket full of a variety of items. A special handmade pincushion, many different fat quarters of red, white and black since those are your favorite colors maybe some scrapbooking goodies, gotta have something with chocolate in it and a quilted table runner. Since I never come emtpy handed to a party I will also bring a cheesecake with cheeries or strawberries on top..... Thank-you for such a fun party.
Hi Kim
I would bring you one of my handmade pinkeeps and matching needlecase with quilting needles enclosed and embroider your initials on the front!
I just love your gifts, you are so talented and you have such lovely ideas!
I would send to you a fun spring quilt I have just made. I took my salmon, yellow, and soft pink scraps and made a very scrappy quilt. I found some salmon fabric from Marcus Brothers on clearence for $2.00 a yard at our local fabric store. I used it for the border, back, and binding so for very little money I was able to make a cute quilt with all the fabrics I love. Thanks for letting me play.

Hi, To your virtual quilt party I would bring, A wrist pin cushion with quilter's pins, because one can never keep the desktop pins handy,and because pins can be used in any sewing project :)
I would bring you a huge tote bag made from Moda fabrics to hold the other gifts you will be getting. :-)
Great prizes again!
I would bring the clips to hold your binding on till it is stitched and a label for the back of your quilt.
What a neat suprise to stumble across your blog. I would bring you the angel of friendship to always look over you and keep the sunshine in your life. Your blog is inspiring and uplifting. Thank you for taking the time to share and spread the sunshine all around. Lorraine
How about a virtual relaxation day! Put your feet up and watch a parade of inspiring quilting projects go by in this custom quilters spa :)
Hey, that sounds fun - let's all go :)
Deanna
I would love to win your great things!! Love your blog.
Sara A.
I forgot to say what I would bring!! I'd bring champagne and orange juice to make mimosas!! Yum!
Sara A
I hope it's not to late... I would Knit you a warm afghan to go with the hot coco and marshmellows I would give you along with a great book og Quilts for you. :)
I LOVE to give gifts :)....and I LOVE your little bags~! I SOOO can't wait till I learn to sew WOO HOO...First think I wanna make is a purse lol.
TTFN
OOOOO these are too cute.... and I love the fabric line. Pick me!! Pick me!!! hehehe
How cute your bag is, I'd love to make one the size you have made. What nice goodies your giving away also. Thanks for your tutorials you've made. I've yet to find time for them, there on my to do list.
If I don't win the gift can I win the instructions for the prizes? I love the bag, tissue holder and needle case. I do hope it is me!
Dy
What a great gift! I think I would like to send you a virtual retreat. Wouldn't a week long retreat with some great friends be an awesome gift!
Of course I'm bringing you M&M's. They go with any fabric and quilt design and, you won't have any little pieces to have to store when you're done.
I forgot my gift would be my special Outragous Brownies.
Dy
I think my first comment didn't take...those bags are too cute!! I'd bring chocolate, of course. :) Melanie (rphmel30@yahoo.com)
I hope I'm not too late. This package of joy is so cute. Kim your work is so professional and perfect. I always love to see what you are making. These items are so pretty. Just so so pretty.
Ok my present for you - a quilting cruise! Wouldn't that be fun. Take our machines and go sail the ocean blue. I'm a little afraid of the deep sea like I'm afraid of the open air in a jet. But for a quilt group I'd work on my anxiety. After going to Bryce at the retreat. I can't think of anything (well mostly) more fun than friends, food and sewing.
Ohh boy what a fun party this would be. I would have to bring some Aussie designer books/patterns along to this retreat. Like Gail Pan, Lynette Anderson, Cinderberry Stithces. Hugs Khris in Oz
Oh I missed it, but how lucky for someone! The work is GORGEOUS!
