Big Giveaway!!

Hello Everyone,

As promised, I am doing a big giveaway today!! So if you would like to make one of these...


A Hunter's Star block. With one of these...


A Rapid Fire Hunter's Star Ruler. You may want to listen to this...


My Podcast Episode 19 with Deb Tucker!! She is the inventor of this wonderful ruler (and many others too!). We discuss how she became a quilter, and I pick her brain about her fabulous and extremely easy to use rulers and patterns. This is a must listen for your podcast list.

You can listen from you computer by clicking here, or you can get it free in the iTunes store by searching for Jackie's Quilting Chronicles. You can always go to my sidebar and click on the icon there as well.

So, the giveaway...


First up the Rapid Fire Hunter's Star ruler for the first prize. But if that wasn't good enough, Deb Tucker is also offering her BRAND NEW ruler that she introduced at Fall Quilt Market...


The V Block!! This makes those spikey and peaky blocks quite precisely. So, yes, there will be TWO winners!! Thank you, Deb for the great prizes!!

The rules:

1. Leave a comment on this blog post, make sure there is an e-mail where I can reach you if you win, for one entry.

2. Visit Deb's site and come back and tell me your favorite thing for a second entry.

3. Blog about the giveaway and let me know in a third comment for a third entry.

The giveaway will be open until Midnight, November 22, 2010.

Now, for those of you who just can't wait to have one of these rulers or patterns, please visit my shop! I stock Deb's wonderful products. You can find them by clicking here.

Best of luck in the drawing!!

***The giveaway is now closed, watch for the winner later this week!**


Until Next Time...

Lovie said...

Would love to win either rules. Have wanted to try the Hunter's Star but dreaded the angles to cut. The V-block ruler looks like a Must Have.

Lovie said...

Visited Deb's site - love the quilt gallery. Her Rangeley Star Quilts are awesome - so I would say my favorite would be the patterns for Rangeley Stars pattern or the Rangeley Wall Quilt pattern.

Days and colors said...

Hunter's Stars is a beautiful pattern! There are different ways to make it, but I'm sure this ruler is a great help.I visited Deb's site and I love the Hot Flash pattern from her. Thanks for this great giveaway!

Laura said...

I love how a good ruler can make a specific block so much easier and more accurate! Thanks for hosting this giveaway!

Laura said...

I like the Basic Recipe Razzle Dazzle - I love being able to compare all the different layouts on one page - though I'm having difficulty picking out my favorite!

Deb said...

I think this is a great giveaway, and i would love to make a quilt using this ruler.

Deb said...

My favorite on her site would be the Hunter Star Ruler.

Rafael's Mum said...

Thank you for the lovely giveaway. Both rulers look quite intriguing!!

Rafael's Mum said...

Just back from Deb's shop and would love to know more about this wingclipper thing for flying geese.. I am just about to make a lot for a quilt!

Patty said...

I'd love any ruler that makes cutting & sewing faster and easier.

Patty said...

Another ruler I'd like to try is the wing clipper. Sounds like it would make flying geese easier to do.

Laura W. said...

Thanks for introducing me to Deb's rulers. They are on my Christmas list.

Ellen said...

I love Deb's method of allowing for a little bit of error. I try to be precise (to make my life easier), but it doesn't always work out (yet). It sounds like her rulers make quilting more fun.

Ellen said...

My favorite part of Deb's site is the gallery showing a large range of what can be done with a quilt block.

Bunny said...

Your black and white hunter quilt is stunning. I'm sure your daughter will love it.

Bunny said...

I took a look at Deb's site. I really like the wing clipper. Flying geese guilts are a favourite of mine and this ruler looks like it would be a great help in getting all the points perfect.

Christine M said...

There was a lot to choose from on Deb's blog. I love her Hot Flash pattern.

Deb has some gorgeous Hunter Star variations on her blog. Unfortunately the names don't show but # 16 really stood out for me.

Barbara C said...

I've heard such wonderful things about the Hunter's Star ruler.

*MICHELLE CAUDLE* said...

I love both of the rulers! Either one would have a nice home in my quilt room. I would love to win one.

MJ said...

Shadow Stars looks GREAT! It's one of my favorite things... too many nice things to choose.

I have been watching with envy the Hunters Star quilts being made with the Rapid Fire Hunters Star ruler. I love yours, it is stunning.

Thanks for the chance to win.

Quilting_Chris said...

After visiting Deb's site, and seeing Yankee Pride the tool has to be the Wing Clipper. Beautiful pattern.

I love your posts

debbie m said...

Ok, I've been admiring those quilts, so maybe that ruler can get me there, lol. I really like it in black and white! amazing.

Miss Hillbilly said...

I would love to win a ruler!! I am trying to break the paper piece habit and have yet to make anything very intricate! Help me break the habit with a new ruler, LOL

Miss Hillbilly said...

I looked the other day when you posted. I actually received a book in the mail(blog win) that had a hunters star in it and fell in love. I had no idea it was a well known block until you blogged the other day. So, I was really intrigued. I think I'd want her large star at first.

Connecticut Chronichols said...

I had never heard of those rulers until I listened to your podcast (which I love BTW). Now on my shop hop today in SoCal I will be on the lookout to see what I can find.

Connecticut Chronichols said...

I just visited Deb's site and whn I have more time I'm going to go back and watch those youtube videos.

debbie m said...

Wow, picking a favorite thing is difficult, there are so many pretty patterns. Maybe Yankee Pride, or Confetti Star...which would be wiser if I had the rapid star ruler.
No third entry for me, I don't have a blog. Thanks for all you share!

Karen said...

Have never made this pattern, would love to try and the ruler looks like a must have! Thanks.

hohla said...

A Hunters Star quilt has been on my "to-do" list for a looong time. This ruler would be great if I am eligible from the UK?

Gwen said...

I have always wanted to try a hunters star quilt, but avoided it because of the templates, the ruler
would definitely help accomplish the quilt. Thanks for the giveaway.

gag7949 said...

I would love to have these rulers! I met Deb at the Knoxville TN AQS show and fell in love with her rulers. They were my best purchase at the show and I have used them lots since then!

Donna Joy said...

I have visited the web site and all the quilts are stunning. I can hardly believe with the help of a ruler that I could make that hunter star quilt. I would love to try.

Brita said...

I've made a Hunter's Star and I love the look, but not the technique. I keep hearing about how wonderful this ruler makes it! I'd like to try it..... :-D

Brita said...

I'd love to have Deb teach at our guild. Hmm, think I'll mention it!
