On Friday, free downloads of my Scattered Leaves pattern shot up from 1 or 2 most days to 400 on a single day. Downloads were lighter but steady on Saturday, then Sunday happened: 2077 downloads that day!
I was pleased (understatement). Someone who will remain nameless asked if perhaps there was a computer glitch. No, it was not a computer glitch! It turns out that the quilt was featured in not one but two Craftsy blog posts last week, which directed a lot of traffic to my pattern. I’m quite flattered and giddy at the moment and decided the attention Scattered Leaves has just received warrants a giveaway too.
Here’s what I came up with. I have two sets of 7 fat quarters to send to new homes. I thought orange and black would be a nice Halloween touch coming up to the month of October. As for the blues, well, you know I have a weakness for those.
Whoever wins them can add them to their stash, or use them to make my Stretch runner or Geese Across the Table placemats and runner. Stretch uses 6 FQs and a bit of yardage, and Geese Across the Table uses 7 FQs and some yardage.
Leave me a comment for a chance to win, and tell me which of these two patterns you would like me to send you if you win. Next Sunday evening, September 29th, I will randomly draw two winners from those who left comments. Remember that if you are a “no-reply” or anonymous commenter I won’t be able to reach you and will have to draw another name.
Now I’m off to do another happy dance!
So exciting when people start discovering your designs and you get a positive rush! Liking "Geese across the Table", an obvious connection to my family name. Thank you for allowing us to participate in your excitement.
ReplyDeleteCheers! All the best to you. You so deserve it. I am doing the Happy Snoopy Dance for you!

How exciting! I'd be doing major happy dances, too.
ReplyDeleteI like Stretch.
I'm not one bit surprised and YOU shouldn't be either. Your quilts are gorgeous. My favorite has always been the wandering geese. Love the colors and everything about it. Geese Across the Table would be my pick to win. I lived near the famous Horicon Marsh (WI) where there are millions of geese at this time of the year. Thanks for the chance. aschaefer24 at yahoo dot com

ReplyDeleteWay to go with the patterns! They are all wonderful. If I should happen to win I would love the Geese Across the Table.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! Your Wandering Goose pattern is fabulous and is sure to reach the several hundred mark now that so many people have seen your talents. Either tablerunner pattern would be fine for me.I like them both. Be interesting to see how many followers you will have in the coming year!

Congratulations! I'm not surprised that so many people would want your patterns - they're lovely! I would be thrilled to win the geese across the table pattern.
ReplyDeleteI also saw the scattered leaves on Craftsy and just love it! It is a fun combination of colors. Geese across the table looks totally unique! I might have to use that for the gifts that I am making for a son getting married! I'm and canuck transplanted to the US with my spouse.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! Both on the amazing count and being featured in numerous places. And while those fabrics tempt me, I think I'd best decline being entered in the giveaway this round. :)
