First I would like to thank all of the entrants for the beautifully handmade contributions. I appreciate the time, effort and passion behind each and everyone of your projects. I have enjoyed stopping by and checking out your blogs to read about the process and the stories behind the pillows. Unfortunately there could be only one winner:
Congratulations to Arajane from You Know What I Love?
Arajane obviously knows what I love! Half Square Triangles are my obsession, I love making these simple blocks without ever tiring of the process. Arajane is also working on a baby quilt using the same fabrics and design; I look forward to seeing more of this quilt:
Arajane has won a bundle of fabric generously sponsored by Fresh-Squeezed Fabrics:
16FQs 9 (4 yards) from the Delilah range by Tanya Whelan
Congratulations Arajane - Rachel will contact you shortly.
