Do you love notions?… I have to admit with as much as I am trying to be a tad more minimal I just love the creative energy that comes from seeing what gadgets people have created to make quilting and sewing more fast, fun and freaking fabulous.
Before I start showing you the fun just a reminder that you will want to leave a comment on today’s post as well as the one that will appear on Wednesday… On FRIDAY I will announce this week’s winner. Prize boxes will not go out until the end of the month since some of our participants have been so kind as to send notions for all 4 of our winners but I don’t want the cat out of the bag too soon… so we will save all the prizes to ship at one time… got it??
Winners MUST check in within 48hour of their name being announced on the BAQS FB page on each Friday or we will pick another winner.
Also keep an eye open for livecast videos that will be popping up on FB that will show some of our prizes in action!
Ok…. ready?

Next Up… The Sunflower Thread Cutter.
I think we all know that chain piecing can make for some mighty fast sewing but then comes the cutting apart of all the pieces.. well this little gadget makes it smooth and easy! With a sharp little blade embedded in the plastic body, your hands are safe as you quickly cut apart your chain piecing! These are carried at lots of quilt shops and of course you can get them from Sunflower Quilts as well! Check out the video HERE and see how fast and easy this notion works!

Thanks Maddie for yet another fun time!! I love you, you are such an inspiration, not only as a quilter, but as a person! You are always upbeat, smiling, helpful and caring! I love that you help quilters! But you don’t stop there, you help sweet little animals as well! Like I said before, you are an inspiration!!
Love these! I adore trying out new notions 🙂
Love and NEED the sew stack! Already have something very similar to the thread cutter : )
Wow. I never met a notion I didn’t like. But, if I had to choose between these, it’d be the Sew Stack. I have a fondness (ok, it’s a sickness!) for sewing machine feet, and they do have a tendency to trip over each other. That would be just the thing to tame them!
Love the cute stackers. Would surely be able to take only the feet I use securely
I’m really trying to up my game by learning chain piecing. The cutter would definitely help! I’m a slow sewer, so anything that will speed me up is a gift. Saturday is my 63rd birthday; I’m hoping for a great present!!!
Oh, the Sew Stack boxes are just my thing. I love containers, and the fact that these will stack – double winner!
I’d be all giddy about trying the Sew N Stack boxes! My notions all rumble around in one drawer and really need a better place to organize them.
Thanks for keeping us updated on the new gadgets!
I LOVE notions!
That cutter looks amazing. I tend to string piece when I do piece work, and cutting them all apart at the end can be a trial!
The Sew Stack needs to be a part of my life.
I love my little thread cutter! And sure could use one while Quilting in the Camper! So ditto for the stacking Sew Stack boxes!
Who couldn’t use any of these !
I need that thread cutter! I just finished a massive chain piecing project and that would have been the BEST investment!
INteresting notions… the thread cutter would be great for chain piecing!
Love the feet organizer. My Janine didn’t come with a box. Sweet
And never thought about the thread cutter being air plane safe. Ty to the person that mentioned it
Really like these notions. Thanks for showing us them
I LOVE NOTIONS!
I love the thread cutter. Very cute, airplane friendly, children friendly, pet friendly =)
Some of my quilting friends call me the gadget queen. The sunflower cutter looks like something that is pretty handy to have. I know it will be put to good use by my machine. 🙂
Love them both but Sew Stack please!
I love gadgets! ❤️
I love the Sew Stack. Thanks for sharing these new notions.
I love seeing all the new gadgets. I think the cutter would be really helpful.
I can see these would both be useful right away. The Sew Stack boxes look like a brilliant idea.
these are great! the purple box with the green lid is super cute, amd the sunflower cutter is so practical!
Love the sew stacks and the sunflower thread cutter. I love quilting notions and organizing.
Always love new toys, my New Year’s resolution was to use some of the toys that I have bought and not used. Both of these items I can see being used immediately.
I could use a thread cutter.
The sew stack boxes look interesting
Any of them would be fine. I have been blue and this would really cheer me up!
Whoever invented the Sew Stack is a genius. What a great idea!
I just finished cutting apart 180 chain pieced sections with scissors. I even managed to cut into some sections resulting in the wailing and gnashing of teeth.
I would have really liked that sunflower cutter.
Both products look very useful. Would love to have either!!!
I’m like a kid in a candy store when it comes to notions!!
Love them all…especially the thread cutter!
It would be wonderful to have the sunflower cutter!
Wow, wonderful. Can’t have too many notions.
Gutting my house after Harvey. Will be so happy to get my sewing room back!
I love the stackers!
Quilting supplies are so much fun.
Amazing giveaway!!! Thanks!
Ooooh! Quilting tools rank right up there with office supplies as “must haves” for my studio. Thank you for presenting these!!!
Love notions, would love to win.
I sure could use the thread cutter, but the Sew Stacks look interesting.
I love my Sunflower thread cutter and the Sew Stack is a wonderful idea.
Love the sew stak for storing machine feet – what a great idea!!!!
I love the sew stack. What a great way to keep all of the machine feet in one spot!
I haven’t met a notion I don’t like…the sunflower cutter is one I really could use!
Thank you for highlighting these products! I love them!
What a great idea. Love it.
