Blog Fodder: Cathedral Window Quilts & a Giveaway




Welcome to this week's Linky Party! 

The theme this week is Cathedral Window Quilts. According to the
Creative Glossary, a cathedral window quilt is one which “uses a quilting technique that centers a piece of colored block of fabric on a muslin square that is stitched and folded.” It uses a quilt-as-you-go technique that uses an origami style of folding the background fabric to form a window frame and inserting a pretty patch in the center to represent the window pane, and is extremely portable once the background is pieced.

Please enter 
your name and a link to your blog or a picture in Flickr. Link up to your quilts (you may enter more than once) using Mr Linky below and do visit as many of the other links as you can.  You will get some great ideas and may even find new followers and/or blogs to follow.

At the end of each month, all linky entries for that month will be tallied and one lucky winner will receive a charm pack of 20 (5") scrappy squares!  The monthly giveaway is open to residents within and outside the United States.
To win the giveaway, you must
1.            Enter a link to your quilt below.
2.            Be a member of this blog.
3.            Leave a comment.

Be sure to check back each week to participate in a different quilt theme.
