Beat The Winter Blues

For some of our friends up north, you may still be in the throes of winter weather.  For us, we are right on the cusp of spring and I have to admit I'm looking forward to it.  But for everyone, the Quilting Gallery is hosting a "Beat the Winter Blues" blog party giveaway.  A big shout out of thanks to Michele for hosting yet another great Blog Hop Party!

Blog Hop Party with Give-Aways

If you haven't been to our blog before, Welcome and if you have, Welcome Back!  This blog is a fun extension to our full time jobs with Cherry Valley Designs.  Cherry Valley Designs was established last summer after I, Megan, finished grad school and decided to follow my dream of owning my own quilt company.  We are still a small company, but are looking forward to continued growth in the future.  This blog is not only a place where we share business related info - be sure to check back next week for our Early Spring collection of patterns (!) I am just bursting to share! - we also share goodies from our everyday life including our menagerie of five dogs and one cat that keep us on our toes; original recipes; and any other thing that sways us - knitting; favorite things; plants ... you get the idea!

Be sure to keep up with us on Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest too!  On Facebook and Twitter we share interesting tidbits and one of our most popular features "Inspiration Wednesday" where we give an inspiring quote to help make it through the rest of the week ... I think we all could use a little inspiration at that point in the week ;)

And of course be sure to check out our shop where you can find all of our patterns (available in PDFs) and our new kit!

The Tree Farm
Our new kit!

To get started with our Spring debut of patterns we have "The Essential Bed Quilt."  This pattern is available in three size choices: Twin; Full/Queen; and King.  I wanted to make a quilt that would be timeless and could easily be used in a variety of bedroom styles, thus "The Essential Bed Quilt" was born!

The Giveaway


Our giveaway includes the pattern for "The Essential Bed Quilt" along with a fat quarter bundle containing 9 prints!

Also linking up with some of our other faves: Crazy Mom Quilts; Can I Get a Whoop Whoop?; and Thank Goodness Its Finished Friday.

Have a Great Weekend!  And don't forget you guys are the best!

  8. Spring and summer are favorite,because of all the new flowers and leaves on the trees,the little animals,etc.
    And the 14 of march is a great day for me--than my son and his wife have their birthday,as they are born on the same day and in the same year-my son in Holland and his wife in Hungarian.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I love the spring, but here in Tx I'm not so keen on the summer it can be waaaaaay too hot for me. I also love the fall. The weather is finally cool enough for me to enjoy the outdoors. I always say, well why can't it be like this all year long? And then winter is back again and it is just too cold for me to enjoy the outdoors, but I know that others have it far worse than I do with all the snow. I try not to complain too severely. I stay inside and enjoy my quilting. What more can we do?

  147. Honestly my favourite is spring but I don't wish to wish my life away a season at a time so I find the beauty in each season. It is just turning Autumn here in Australia and I am hoping for enough dry weather that I can take photo's of my daughter in the Autumn leaves when they turn. I am teaching myself to make her Flannel PJ pants with French seams ready for Winter. Each season has it's own beauty.

    I'm definitely a dying-for-spring kind of girl. Especially when I sit here, looking out the window to crazy-snowing, and another nearly 6" of fresh white stuff!
    I long to see dirt...and flowers.

  154. Humm I'm not sure I like to cuddle under a nice quilter as I quilt but I also enjoy the joy of seeing things as they are reborn. But the down side is the pollen is bad on my allergies.
    The FQ's are just beautiful and the wonderful pattern are a great and generous thing to win. Thank you for being a part of this blog hop.

  167. I dislike winter so much that I packed up and moved to get away from it. We still get a "winter" on southern Vancouver Island, but it is nothing like what we endured on the prairies. It's more like a really long chilly spring. Still, I'm relieved to see the first snowdrops peek out in January, and love to watch real spring unfold. Thanks for the great giveaway opportunity.

  168. Well, actually, I love autumn the best! Definitely not a summer person, I burn very easily and get hives when I'm in the sun. I don't mind the rain and cold as long as there's no icy roads.

  171. I have lived in the southern states of NV,southern VA and Florida for the last 25 years. In January we oved to northern Pennsylvania. What a shock to your system! It was 65 degrees when we left, and 10 hours later when we arrived it was 30 degrees. It's snowed every week we've been here so far. I've found I don't mind the cold (I bought a great jacked on clearance before we moved), and I love watching it snow. But I still don't like to drive in it. So I am very much looking forward to spring for some warmer weather and drier streets. Thanks for such a great giveaway.

  172. Here in Maryland, I was minding my own business, enjoying the winter until the little warm spells came our way, and now I'm smitten with spring as I have a full out case of Spring Fever. I love spring, but hate summer. And spring never lasts long enough!
