Be sure to go there and read my tutorial on making yo-yos.
Look what was delivered to my door today. The most cheerful basket of flowers I have ever seen! This was a "thank you" from the nice folks in Paris, Michigan. Those people treated me like a queen--they were sooooo nice!
Thank YOU, Michigan quilters! You are awesome.
If you leave a comment on this post or my previous post, (since it was only up for one day), I will count you in the drawing for the prizes. We are giving away one of my books and a whole bunch of patterns, and Madame Samm has added some stuff to it, too. Good luck!
I will be posting again later in the WANT TO BE A QUILTER campaign, so I have some other prizes scheduled. As soon as I get fabric from my next line, Sorbet Garden,
I am sending some to Madame Samm to give away on my next post!!! Isn't this fun!

Not sure if these comments should be for Quilters or Wantobe Quilters. I am a quilter so if I shouldn't be leaving a comment just delete me...well not me just the comment LOL. Sorbet is so pretty. Linda

Wow, Jill - this is "Sew" Exciting!! (As Mme. Samm would say!) I love squishy packages in the mail! I'm already a cyber-stalker here and with Stash. Love your cute guest post today - especially the can of corn! I remember seeing little Yo-Yo dolls as a kid, like the one HERE: http://sunshinescreations.vintagethreads.com/2006/10/how-to-make-yo-yo-friend.html. Do you ever use Clover's little yo-yo makers? I could make yo-yos for hours...
Hi, just read your post over at Wantobe. I am a new follower.
очень красивые цветы и ткани .Спасибо за розыгрыш .
Hi Jill
Thanks for the yo-yo tutorial. I'm just about to make some to decorate my daughter's clothes. You've saved me googling it. (Just popping over from Madame Samm's Wantobe Quilter campaign.)
Anne @ Domesblissity
Love how you use the yo-yos on your quilts. Thanks for the tutorial on Stash Manicure!
That fabric is beautiful and would be a fantastic way to start my stash!
Great post over at Sew We Quilt! The colors in your new line are gorgeous!
So are your flowers! I am a new follower!
Loved the guest spot at Madama Samm's. I am so glad you featured the yo-yo. I just used the yo-yo with a patient at a nursing home I work at as a therapy tool for memory and sequencing. She has since bought a machine and is quilting again with much improvement in her cognition. Thanks for the article. I'm a follower and a wantobequilter.

Love the flowers & the tutorial.
thank you
The sorbet line looks so cheerful. I liked your post over at stash manicure about the yoyos. I am just learning how to do them myself and think i need to practice more as mine aren't as nice and round as yours.
Thank you so much for teaching me to make Yo-Yo's always wondered how to make them and now I know. Thank you from a Wantobe!
love yo-yo s but have never made one .... yes i do think that is going to be a goal for this century:) thank you for a great tutorial to get me started! I inherited a bunch of yo- yo s at an estate fabric sale :) :) :) yes I was smiling from ear to ear as I left with my treasure. Love your patterns .I would be delighted to win some. Isn't madame samm such a treasure? I guess that makes you a treasure too since you really know her :) Love being a quilter! it is a beautiful day here in IOWA. bless you for the gift you shared today with me. hope your day is some kind of wonderful!

Just read your post over and sew we quilt. I had no idea what a yo yo was until moments ago. Thank you for teaching me how to make them!!

What a cute line of fabric! If I don't win, then I will most definitely ask about it as my local quilt shop! Count me in.
Julie
Your quilts are beautiful! Thanks for the give away!
Love your yoyo tutu. I've made a few but none as small as the ones in your pics.
I'm a follower, the Sorbet Garden Fabric is so pretty :) Thanks for the great Yo Yo tutorial.
Thanks for the nice post on Stash Manicure, I want to give yo-yos a try!
I love your fabrics. I saw your yo yo post over on Stash Manicure. I like making and using yo yos, too. Please sign me up for your giveaway. I am a follower. Thanks.
wonderful post at Mme. Samm's today. I had forgotten how great yo-yo's are.
I love the YoYo pattern! You make it look easy. I was already a Follower, but I stopped by today from madam Samm and and I'm a Wantobe Quilter. Oh my goodness, is that Sorbet line beautiful and bright! I love it! Thank You, for being a part of this Fun giveaway. Jo

P.S. Is that a NEW grandbaby in the photo below this post? aah, Heaven! Nothing like the scent of a newborn baby neck!
I follow your blog -- and stash manicure too. The sorbet collection is gorgeous with all the colors. I am a quilter signed up with Linda at straystitches and came by to say hello after yo-yo-ing around with you over at stash!
Gorgeous fabrics anda wonderful tutorial for yo-yo's may be brave and have a try now
Thanks for tutorial on yo/yos. I am a wantobe quilter and am so excited to read all the wonderful things all of you have to teach us. I am a new follower.
Sorbet...makes my mouth water just looking at it. I'm a Quilter, and not a Wantobe Quilter. This so much fun!
love the embellishment help :)
Such clear lovely color in those new fabs. Looks like the bouquet you got...
I am a follower.
I just adore those yo-yos. One of these days I will do something that requires them. Thanks for the tutorial.
Thanks a bunch for the yo yo instructions. I have always wanted to know how to make them. They are just CUTE. I am a wantobe quilter and can't wait to get started.
CJ in NC
Love the tutorial. Thank you! I look forward to the Sorbet line - at least to look at since I can never afford those types of fabrics. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and lovely quilts, etc.
Thanks for your tutorial over at Sew We Quilt. Love your blog, here!
Hi Jill I am already a follower and I love your blog. Thanks for the tutorial on yoyo's, I am already a quilter but I just wanted you to know that i enjoyed your posting
Hi Jilly, I am now following you, just wanted to say the yoyo is a great tut! I didn't know what these were called..to me, they were the little gathery, circle thingies..lol thanks for the great tut..liked your posting style..nice, and easy!..perfect for us beginners! Christel
Visiting from SM and I loved your yo-yo tutorial. Lol, great pics for holding the camera with one hand! I'm commenting for my DD12 wantobe quilter as our time zone doesn't coincide very well with across the other side of the world. The Sorbet colours go nicely with your lovely flowers :).
Cheers,
Robyn
Love the Sorbet as do I love all your fabric lines!! You're one of my favorite! Madame Samm recognizes talent and shines a light on the best in our Quilting world. Fabric designers amaze me because I can't imagine having that sort of talent but very glad that you and other designers have made the world of quilting SEW much more fun! I remember the fabric of the 70's when I got my first sewing machine..A *WHITE* brand and I paid $88 for it in 1974!! I was so proud and wanted so much to sew. MY first attempt was a Neru shirt for #1 husband..you probably don't remember those fashion forward items...ACK!!! I couldn't figure out that slit in the front, got my thread tension messed up and didn't pick up sewing for another several years and then only for mending purposes. My fabric choices didn't contribute to any inspiration either. That's why I'm so in love with all the new fabric that you creative designers have given to us. These youg *Wantobes* should be SEW thankful they don't have to sew or quilt with polyester knit. Oh the pain of it all...
Blessings

thanks for the lesson on those gorgeous yo-yos - I'm going to put some on a baby quilt I'm making as I'm sure they'll make it even more special - and thanks heaps for the giveaway :)
What a great post it was for those of us who love yo-yos! blessings, marlene
Thanks for the tutorial you did on stash manicure. It looks simple enough for a wantobe like me.
Thanks for giving your fabric, patterns, and time to Madame Samm for the campaign. Without generous givers like you, it would not be possible.
I am a follower of both you and Stash Manicure.
Your patterns are stunning. I'm so glad I discovered your web site. I'm a Wantobe Quilter, too.
Thanks for a great tutorial!!! I always wondered about those yo-yos....

Hope this isn't too late, just found the blog entry. I'm a new follower, love Sorbet!!
Very fun!! I love your fabrics!!
