Today, April 15th, we are Giving Away... (PRIZE CLAIMED)


Over $75.00 Worth of Beautiful Material from The Material Girls Quilts

Let’s sing it together,

“Living in a material world
And I am a material girl
You know that we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl.”

Are you a material girl? Do you love to design, create, and sew using gorgeous, high-quality material? Is there a sewing project such as a quilt, apron, skirt, or baby blanket that you have kept on the back burner because you have not yet found the perfect fabric? Well bring that project to the front burner because today I am going to introduce you to the beautiful fabric of The Material Girls Quilts. And guess what? They are giving some of it away!! For free. To you. If you are our lucky winner. Yipee!

The Material Girls Quilts is located in South Jordan, Utah. My mom frequents The Material Girls Quilts quite often and she has assured me that they have some of the finest fabric available. And believe me, my mom knows her fabric. But you do not have to live in Utah to own some of The Material Girls Quilts' material. You can order fabric and much more from their online store. Here's just a sample of what they offer:
Beautiful Fabric (this is a Jelly Roll from Moda)


Kits of all kinds (such as quilt, clothing, bag, and apron kits)

Books and Magazines (I like to include these with a gift for my mom on Mother’s Day or birthdays)

And much, much more. Visit The Material Girls Quilts online store here to discover all their amazing products.

Today The Material Girls Quilts is giving away A Jelly Cake which is a Jelly Roll, Layer Cake, and Charm Pack (valued at over $75.00). This is such an awesome giveaway—a seamstress’s dream. But maybe some of you aren’t seamstresses, and that’s okay. But I bet know you someone who is. And maybe that someone is your mom (Mother’s Day is around the corner) or a friend, or a sister. You should enter to win and then you can give the prize to them. Or better yet, enter to win, and then call them and let them know about today’s giveaway so that they can enter too. They will be so grateful.
They will also be grateful to know that The Material Girls Quilts is offering a 20% DISCOUNT off of one regular priced item. This is good through April 22. To redeem, you must say that you are a follower of Give Away Today upon check-out.

Today you can enter to win the Jelly Cake from The Material Girls Quilts up to THREE times.

For one entry, leave your first and last name in a comment.
Example: Jane Doe

For a second entry visit The Material Girls Quilts here. Look at all of their beautiful products--including their fabric. Then come back to Give Away Today and in a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and your favorite product.
Example: Jane Doe: Gypsy Rose Jelly Roll

For a third entry, in a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and an item you have given to someone that you made for them out of fabric OR something special that you own that someone has made for you out of fabric. And this isn’t a requirement for the third entry, but if you want to show us all a picture of this special item, we’d love to see it! Do a post about your special item on your blog and leave your url with your comment so that we can visit your blog. Be sure to do a link back to Give Away Today in your blog post.
Example: Jane Doe: Each of my four children currently sleeps under a beautiful quilt that my mom made for them. On each of their quilts my mom has placed a little tag that says “Made with Love by Grandma Faye”. I love and cherish my children’s quilts. And those are just four of the quilts I treasure. I have at least two others. I believe quilts are gifts that can be treasured for a lifetime.

The winner of the Jelly Cake from The Material Girls Quilts will be announced tomorrow Thursday, April 16th. Please visit us then to see if you are our winner and to check out our new giveaway for the day. Thank you to everyone who entered our Mother’s Day Contest. The entries are now closed. We will announce our finalists right here on Give Away Today on April 27, 28, and 29th. You, our wonderful readers, will choose our Mother’s Day winners.

Carrie Fuhriman: I am currently working on a quilt for my daughter. I have never quilted before so I chose something I thought was easy...which it was fairly easy but there still are a few bad spots. I hope to make all my kids one eventually. I have one top done so far and hoping to get the bottom & the quilting done before summer.

Sarah Idiart: I've recieved many beautiful quilts and made a few, but what I'd like to use the fabric for (if I won) would be for a local humanitarian project.

I'm helping a group of 20 girls at church learn to piece quilts and they'll each make a baby size quilt top. We'll take the tops to a girls camp, where a group of 150 girls will tie the quilts. These will then be donated to needy newborns in our area. I'm so excited to help the girls accomplish something as sweet as this, and bring some new mothers some happiness in the form of a beautiful baby quilt.

Alicia Campbell - My friend recently had a birthday and I was thinking and thinking about what to get her. I am very new to sewing but LOVE it. So I decided to sew her a handbag. When she opened the gift she liked it, but when my other friend told her I MADE it, she started to cry. I love being able to sew heartfelt gifts for the most special people in my life.

My good friend Lisa's birthday was last week. She loves to do counted cross stitch. Approx. 20 years ago I did a counted cross stitch about Counted Cross Stitchers. It sat in a drawer for many years unframed. For her birthday, I took it to the frame shop and had it framed to match her sewing room. I have a picture of it on my blog: http://celticheartquiltingandknitting.blogspot.com/
