Mad About Patchwork and a Giveaway!

Hello there and welcome to my new partner, Canadian quilting retailer Mad About Patchwork from my 'hometown' of Ottawa (I say hometown because that is where I did the bulk of my high schooling, although I only lived there for 5 years of my life). I miss the Rideau Canal, my favourite thing about Ottawa in summer and winter!

Mad About Patchwork

Mad About Patchwork is an established Canadian online shop with a focus on fabric and patterns for modern quilters. With personal customer service from Pam and her helpful staff, fair prices, and same day shipping from Ottawa, it’s a sweet deal for Canadian shoppers.  Pam opened the shop in 2008 as a part-time venture from her basement, but this year she moved to a new brick and mortar location, with friend and business associate Laura.  Follow all of their adventures in sewing on the shop blog.

Your favourite modern basics are always in stock – my go to neutral EssexLinen (for $9/yd), Westminster shot cottons and over 200 bolts of Kona cotton.  Here are a few of the shop's special services you should know about:
  • A custom die-cutting service for Kona cotton – your choice of any in-stock colour cut into 5” charms (in packages of 40) or 2.5” strips (in packages of 20).
  • Books are always 20% off retail price
  • Patterns ship for free! If you don’t see what you’re looking for, send an email. We will do our best to bring in a book or pattern that you’re having a hard time finding. 
  • custom gift certificates for gift-giving


A peruse of their September sales section turned up some great stash builders, like several Denyse Schmidt prints (Posy!) and Stitch Circles and Squares for only $8/yd!

Stitch Circles in Stone

Or this adorable Wee Wander Meander in Petal

Or my favourite Mormor Pilvi print in eggplant

Pam also offers pre-orders on lines coming soon. There are 45 Cotton & Steel prints to choose from and I've already made my pre-order!  I'm also going to choose a few of the geometric Gramercy prints from Leah Duncan - I love Commute by Taxi, NY Circuit in Ashen and Manhattan's dawn.

The Giveaway
Head on over to Mad About Patchwork's online shop and have a look around. Choose your favourite custom curated FQ bundle on this page and you could win that bundle!  You've got three chances to win a bundle of 9 FQ's:

I'll emply the Random Number Generator on Sunday, September 14 around my dinnertime to choose a winner.

International entries are most welcome.  You MUST leave a way for me to contact you. If you are no reply blogger, or wordpress blogger I cannot reply to you, so please leave your email in your comment (you can use the format jane(dot)doe(at)gmail(dot)com if you like). If I can't find you, I'll have to draw another winner and that's a bummer!
