As much as I would love to win one of the Berninas, I am not picky about my prize!!! I’ll take fabric, thread, getting one of my quilt tops quilted, whatever 🙂 Thanks so much for putting this giveaway together and for the inspiration (and laughs) you give me since I’ve recently become one of your 4,000!!!
What a great opportunity – all of those sponsors totally rock! Even if I don’t win, though, I still want to say “Thanks!” to you, Maddie, for helping show the world that you don’t have to be a gray haired grandma to be a cool quilter! (No offense intended to gray haired grandmas, though! That’s how I learned to quilt.) 🙂

Beth Nickel from Sask Canada here…I would love to win any of these prizes…
I love your blog!!
My husband doesn’t know how addicted I am to quilting. I took our china and crystal out of the cabinet and replaced it with my fabric. He never noticed. He said he would wear a t-shirt that said” Husband of a BadAss Quilter”. He is the best! Love your society and hope one day I can be as bad ass as the rest of my fellow quilters
What a BadAss list of prizes! Thank you for the opportunity! And also for making it ok to quilt outside the lines! I’m loving it! And I can’t wait for SPOOL to open! I’m in NC and my best friend grew up in Chattanooga! ROAD TRIP!!!
