cold. colder. coldest. And coupon.

I am grumpy.  It has been about -30 degrees here for about 3 weeks now.  As far as cold snaps go, this has CROSSED THE LINE.

But luckily I have has some cheering up from some lovely people who have been whipping up Good Old Hockey Quilts for loved ones for Christmas. Thought I would share a couple here that I have received this week….

Aren't they awesome?!?!


So I have decided to run a coupon on the pattern to celebrate the new year, and hopefully generate some good karma to banish this frigid weather!!   So, from now until January 6/14,  The Good Old Hockey Game quilt pattern on Etsy is 25% off with the coupon code "hockeycanada".

Off to shovel the driveway. Again.

Hockey Quilt Pattern is here!!!

Over 2 years ago, I made a hockey rink quilt for Big G for his birthday.

 

I can't tell you how many wonderful compliments and comments I have received about it.  And I promised multiple people that I would write a pattern.  But life is busy and my computer graphics skills are nil and time just passed!

Well, thanks in large part to a big helping hand from my wonderful quilty friends Tracey and Ali, it is finally done and in my shop!

I named it The Good Old Hockey Game quilt pattern as a tribute to the song by Stompin' Tom Conners, who sadly passed away last week.  The pattern is in PDF format and includes a combination of graphics and photos, along with templates, to guide you through.  This is a great pattern for beginners as it involves basic patchwork and an introduction to simple pieced and appliquéd curves.


It comes together quickly and the top could easily be pieced over a weekend!  The pattern is for a twin sized quilt top, finishing up at 68" by 88".


To thank you for your patience in waiting for this pattern, I have applied a 20% coupon with the code LONGWAIT20.  This coupon is valid now through March 20/13.

This is my very first pattern and I am so excited to finally have it complete after a loooooong process!  hope you like it, too :)
