INDEX Pattern Giveaway!

Isn't it funny how some weeks go by in a heartbeat? This is definitely one of those weeks! I nearly forgot it was my turn to talk about St. Louis Folk Victorian new quilt pattern, INDEX.

When I heard that Kristy was looking for pattern testers, I thought it sounded like a fun idea. INDEX is a fun and easy pattern, which uses jelly roll strips (although I'd like to make a scrappy version, too!).

Index test blocks

I've been using some of my Pez jelly roll strips for binding, but I have quite a few left, and thought they would work well for my test blocks.

After making four quick blocks, I can say that this pattern would be an excellent project for a beginner quilter, or a great gift project.

Index test blocks
It comes together quickly, and there's three sizes to choose from. Kristy is selling the pattern in her etsy shop, and it's available in both PDF and hard-copy format.

Today is the last day of the blog hop, but please stop by and visit the other participants (there's agiveaway at each one!):

Sunday 10/28 – Kristy Daum
Monday 10/29 -- Annie, Andi
Tuesday 10/30 – Shelly, Nancy
Thursday 11/1 – Beth, Jess
Friday 11/2 – Sara, Jacey <--- you are here.

Kristy has kindly offered a PDF version for a giveaway here!

So, if you'd like to win a copy of INDEX, just leave a comment here. If you'd like, tell me what fabric you intend to use for your quilt!

PLEASE, please make sure to leave a way for me to contact you if you are a no-reply commenter! I'll take entries until Monday evening. Thanks for playing!

ETA: comments are now closed. thank you!

    I would love to win this pattern. I think I would make mine scrappy with each row a different general rainbow color.

    What a great quilt. It sort of reminds me of handweights.
    Love it.

    What a great pattern! I have a jelly roll that I haven't been able to figure out which pattern to use. I think INDEX would be perfect!! Thanks for the giveaway!

    Ooh, I'd love to make this out of those V. and Co. Simply Color ombre strips. Wouldn't that be pretty?

    I love using the same fabric line, but different colors. So cohesive! Thank you for the giveaway!

    I am thinking I would use some kiddo fabric prints from my stash and may a baby quilt!

    I'm thinking I'd use some black/white print fabric from my stash and, instead of grey, use one of my kona solids in red or green or orange (undecided there).

    Fawn

    I love the comment about the hand weights, never would have thought of that myself, but I totally agree! I'd like to see it for a baby with soft flannels and minky on the back! Pick me, pick me!

    I don't have any jelly rolls, so I would likely do a scrappy version.
    Thanksfor the giveaway!

    Love Kristy's pattern! It works well with almost any fabric, modern, traditional, solid, great pattern design. Well done, Kristy! Thank you for this great giveaway.

    Have a super great sewing and stitching day!

    I thought I would use floral fabrics with an aqua or yellow background, but I really like the gray that you and one other tester used. I've got lots of pretty gray sitting in the stash, so maybe if I win I'll have to make serveral.

    I have two jelly rolls at the moment, one of Curio that I won and another from my LQS that they made from their stock. I don't know which one I would chose! LOL Maybe I will make one with each! Thanks for the chance to win this!

    I love your pezzy blocks! I'd like to make this quilt out of some boy fabric. Maybe the new Parson Gray fabric Wonders (I think that's the name) in the blue colorway. Thanks for a chance to win! :)

    White as the background with red and blue - great American Hero quilt or QOV quilt! I would also make it with black as the background and jewel-tones. Oh, so many options with this great pattern!!!

    Ooooooooh -- love your blocks. I love a scrappy quilt, so I would use fabric from my stash to make it. Actually, I do have a jelly roll that I bought a few years ago that I have been wanting to use, so this pattern would be perfect for it.
