62 Anniversary Open House
Chapter 3 The Giveaways
The patterns in the previous post were really fun to look at and while I was standing there admiring them I thought to myself, "wouldn't it be interesting to see just one of these patterns done in 15 different color ways." I was looking at the blue one (below) by Kathryn Schmidt from Rule Breaking Quilts. by Kathryn Schmidt (Autographed)
Kathryn autographed this book during Spring Quilt Market in Minneapolis. I can't think of a better time to offer it as a gift to a lucky IHAN blog reader.

This is Barbara holding up one of her quilts during a Schoolhouse presentation during Spring Quilt Market in Minneapolis. Those who attended the Schoolhouse lecture received a sample package of fabrics and one very lucky IHAN blog reader will get that sample package of fabric (pictured below). The fabrics are so soft and beautifully woven. There may be enough for a small wall hanging.

The next three patterns that will be given away in honor of Checker Distributors 62 Anniversary Open House....were all designed by Carolyn Griffin of Far Flung Quilts. During Spring Quilt Market, Carolyn autographed these beautiful Quilt Patterns and gave them to me. I know there will be three very happy IHAN blog readers very soon!!!

Carolyn works for Checker Distributor and unfortunately the most recent photo I have of Carolyn....well.....lets just say it would not be fair of me to post it here....out of context!!! LOL When I post the most recent photos I have of Carolyn you will know why I'm not posting them here. She was very generous to offer three autographed patterns to be given away here on the IHAN blog.
Amy Barickman from Indygo Junction was at Checker's Open House as well. She has been promoting her new book, Amy Barickman's Vintage Notions.

Amy has autographed a fun Amy Barickman's Vintage Notions tote bag (photo below) to be given away here on the IHAN blog.
The IHAN blog is also giving away two copies of Fiber & Fabric Mania! A travel Guide compliments of Checker Distributors!!!
