One of my favorite things about Quilt-A-Longs is getting to give away all the amazing prizes. But, I wouldn’t be able to give away such great prizes without amazing sponsors. Check out the sponsors below, and even give them a follow on Instagram too!
More details about the specific prizes are below.
Each week will have its own specific prizes. In order to be entered to win for that week, you must have posted a photo showing your Connector Quilt progress to Instagram using #ConnectorSAL. Anyone who posts a photo of their Connector quilt progress each week will be eligible to win the prizes!
For each week, you must post your photos to Instagram using the hashtag #ConnectorSAL to be eligible to win prizes. You may work ahead, just be share to share photos of your progress each week. You may also use #ConnectorQuilt, #HomemadeEmilyJane and #HomemadeEmilyJanePatterns if you wish!
Our weekly prizes include curated fabric bundles, quilt kits, quilting tools, an Oliso mini iron, longarm quilting services, and so much more! We’ll have at least 2 winners each week, and I will announce the prizes for each week in the SAL emails as well as on Instagram. Here are some of them so far:
Mark your calendar for the Sew-A-Long dates!
Each week I will send out an email with the Sew-A-Long specifics for that week, and I will have a video to discuss the week’s tasks and share my own tips for success.
The videos will be posted to my YouTube channel every Monday, and the emails will be sent out shortly after!
