Wow! An amazing group of prizes. I could really use a new sewing machine to finish the quilt I have started. I even have quilt squares my grandmother made that need to be assembled. Thanks.
Yay! Checking in from Las Vegas, NV to congratulate BAQS on 4000 likes/members. Can’t wait to see who wins all this great stuff!

Congratulations!!!! Thank you to the generous sponsors. This new generation of quilters have my attention and fuels my enthusiasm of creating.
I’m in Redding, California.
Maddie, it has been such a joy to watch you create and activate your BadAss fabric/quilt arts admiration movement, and transmute your irritation at quilts being dissed into a glorious self-empowerment and empowerment of other fabric artists! You have started a movement that includes all genre’s of fabric arts, all fabric artists who like to push the edges of their art — no matter where their art edges are in the fabric arts spectrum. In Tibetan Buddhism, there are some really fine BadAss Dakini’s, (female enlightened beings), honored because they take a no-holds barred approach to pushing their admirers toward enlightenment. You’d fit right in with them, babe, pushing us toward our edges, celebrating us when we get there, and encouraging us to push that edge even further. Big time blessin’s on ya, babe, do what you do with sass, and cruise on with joy! Smiles, Sharon
So glad to be part of the BAQS! Would love to win!! Can’t wait to see what you post in the future…..always something cool to look forward too. 🙂
Wowza…what a great giveaway! It would definitely make going back to school (work…I’m a teacher) much easier in a week 😉
Love BAQS!
I love being a member of the BadAss Quilters Society. I proudly wear me pin. Hope to meet other members in Houston. It would be fantastic to win.
I’m so excited that it is time for another giveaway! I hope I am chosen.
So happy to see Maddie seeing her dreams come true!! Good luck to me, too!!
Would love any of these prizes, Cory Wilkins BC Canada!
Congrats on reaching 4000+
Great list of gifts would love to win
Congrats on the big 4-0-0-0! And thanks for sharing the love with this great giveaway. Tell you what–if I win, I’ll come to your shop and give a handbag-making workshop. Deal?
