Great Granny Squared Book Giveaway!!{closed}
This giveaway is now closed and the winner has been notified and her book is on its way to her!! Thank you to all who entered!!
I have a little surprise again this Monday morning. Remember when I told you I had more happy mail last week? Well, the happy mail was 2 copies of Lori Holt’s newest book, “Great Granny Squared”. We are excited to be giving away a copy to one of our readers here on our blog. Thanks to the the Fat Quarter Shop and Lori Holt of Bee in my Bonnet.
This is a lovely book filled with more of Lori’s ideas and techniques for making beautiful quilted projects featuring her great granny square!
This weekend, I opened up the book and took out my basket with some of my favorite scraps and used this for inspiration for a new pillow cover.
This is what I came up with so far. It will cover my pillow form nicely with a 2″ border and then a cute backing fabric! I love granny squares in any shape, size or fabric so this book will be a treasure!!
My plan is to make the great granny square table topper for this newly painted table in my family room. It needs something cute, I think a table topper would look perfect on it (an idea from her book). I will show pictures when I finish it.
If you would like to win this book, leave a comment on this post telling us what you love about spring and you will be entered to win your very own copy of Lori’s book. We will leave this giveaway open until April 1st.
Have fun and enjoy your week. Back to sewing for me!

I love the longer days and the sunshine on the fresh green leaves in the forest. There is a glade of beech trees in the woods where I walk my dog which are breathtaking in the early spring. Jenny larking at gmail dot com
I would love to get the windows open and let in fresh air and listen to the birds chirp while I sew.
The colors! After the dull browns of winter I love the fresh, bright greens, the yellows, pinks, purples, whites. The birds. The birds that begin to come back to the bird feeders.

The renewal of life. Blooms of color everywhere. The birth of baby creatures is so exciting. The bird singing. The joy of people getting together. Thank you.
Bright sunny days, warmer weather, green grass, flowers, trees blooming, putsing in the garden, putting away the winter boots, Spring is my favorite time of year!!
I love the longer days, and the (slightly) higher temperatures, to go outside and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature waking up from a long winter rest.
My favorite thing about spring are the pops of colors from newly blooming flowers and the green grass!
I just love the flowers and warmer weather:)
I love the spring flowers – daffodils in particular!
What I love about Spring is watching all of my tulips in my garden come up. When we moved here, there was a garden with many different kinds of tulips planted, and it’s so much fun seeing all of them bloom.
This looks like the ultimate inspiration for Spring projects! Boy oh boy would I like to add it to my collection! I haven’t done any Granny blocs yet and am excited to. Thanky you for your inspiration and great titles….Marcia
What I love most about Spring are the flowering trees! Thanks for the chance to win!:)
I live in Arizona so spring is the end of our lovely weather and the beginning of the long, hot summer so there isn’t much to love. However, it’s a great time of year for the vegetable garden. I have a salad with fresh greens for my lunch today.
I love the return of green grass! Mine is currently hidden under snow.
I love Easter during spring. Since we’ve had rain all the green and wild flowers springing up. Thanks for the great giveaway. Love your table.
I love all the seasons, but this year I’m soon ready for Spring! I love the longer, warmer days, the delicate bulb-y blooms, and the way the whole world seems to green up. Every year I try not to miss the day the Hudson the trees open, and every year I wake up one morning and the greening has happened! Thanks for the opportunity! Love Lori Holt so much!
I love when everything begins to bud and then blooms into beautiful-ness! Seeing more of the sun makes me very happy as well.

I love spring as its getting warmer and you see so many lovely coloured flowers and plants 🙂
I love watching my tulips peeking through the soil after a cold wet winter!
Oh my spring!!! I can hardly wait, memories of my little girls with their brand new shiny patent leather shoes, pink or purple frilly dresses, cute little hands and white gloves, I used to have sooooo much fun getting them ready for Easter, and then off to church they would go, skipping and sooo proud of their new outfits,,,,, really fun days.
The warm weather and watching my flowers grow!
Your Granny Square is adorable! This project has been on my quilting bucket list for a while now. I would love to win the book and maybe that would give me inspiration to complete it!

I love the rain, flowers, colors, the general feeling of newness and freshness. It’s a close second to my favorite time of year.
I love that my daughter was born on the first day of spring…it was a wait for her to get her, but I think the reminder from God of the preciousness of new life on such a day as spring was worth the wait! Thanks for a lovely giveaway!
I love the sunshine in the spring! Perfect for outdoor activities with my family!

I love Spring for the smell of the air, blooming flowers and more sunlight! More sun equals more walks on the beach!

All the flowers in our garden and painting the Easter eggs with my kids. Thanks for the chance.
Everything!!! But especially the weather 🙂
I love the spring green color of the first leaves on the trees before they turn the bolder green. I love seeing the green foliage of the jonquils as they first push through the earths crust. I love the birds going about gathering twigs and the threads of nature to build and bind nests for their young. I love seeing the cardinals, mates for life, working together to prepare for their young. I love seeing children run and play outside with abandon after being house-bound for so long by snow, ice and cold. I love Easter eggs, and seeing families dressed for Easter Sunday to worship and celebrate the risen Savior. That, most of all….

I love being able to get outside & walk again. My husband & I took a 2 mile walk yesterday & it felt so good. I’ve been wanting to make a granny square quilt & winning this book would be the impetus I need to get it done.
Flowers in the garden.
Love the fabric you have used in your pillow cover! What I really love about spring is the warmer weather which means that I can start drying clothes outside again and the children can spend more time outside instead of being stuck indoors. 🙂
I like seeing the trees start budding out and plants coming up from the barren garden.
Great fabrics and book! The best thing about spring is that it’s the end of winter!

My most favorite thing about spring is the lengthening days and increased sunlight! Living at the US-Canadian border means less than eight full hours of sunlight in the depth of winter!
My second most favorite thing of spring is the miracle of gardening, poking a small seed in the ground and seeing it come up and grow!
I love granny squares and Lori Holt’s designs. She is very talented! I follow your blog by Bloglovin and enjoy your posts. Thank you for the chance to win this book.

I love the warmer weather and the spring flowers. Yellow daffodils are some of my favorites.
Would love to win Lori Holts book … follow her as well as your blog, very inspiring!
Here where I live spring is the polar opposite and who doesn’t like a new fresh look on life? The heavier, darker browns, rust and deep greens are replaced with light weights that are fresh and lively colors of whites, turquoise, bright greens, vibrant reds and pink and citrus colors. Our foods we serve are no longer the warm inviting comfort foods of stews and pot pies but fresh crispy salads, lighter cuts of meat with citrus flavorings to pair with the upcoming tomto and cucumber sides. Ironic how those fabric colors speak to us of promised blossoms and fresh melons and sunshine! A beautiful new season rolls around.
Ahhhh spring! I’m a quiver at the thought of feeling the sun and air on my bare limbs! And the first bits of colour … spring bulbs reaching the surface. I can’t wait!!
Spring is colorful – warm – and my hummingbirds come back!! Also, Spring ushers in Summer.
spring? hopefully it means this confounded snow will end soon and melt away…
but seriously. i love the grass and the burst of flowers and color everywhere!
I live in farm country and spring means first cutting of hay. I love the fresh smell of newly cut hay.
Granny squares are a classic. And a favorite for me as my grandbabies call me Granny. Getting fabrics ready to make a Granny Sq Quilt currently so this book would be a nice help. C
It’s 75 here today love it!
I like not slipping on ice
Singing birds!! And daffodils. Thanks for the chance to win such an awesome book!
I love seeing March flowers ,redbud trees and dogwood trees bloom. I also love the smell of fresh turned dirt(breaking the garden) and hearing the peepers at night.
I just love all of my flowers blooming like the daffodils, tulips, peonies, and iris. I just get a good feeling being outside and enjoying nature and the birds. Thanks so much for the giveaway. I purchased Lori’s last book and just love it.
I am looking forward to spring and the end of one of the worst winters in the Northeast. I am waiting for the first peeks of crocuses and daffodils. And can’t wait to plant spinach seeds. Thanks for the chance!
My favorite thing about Spring is longer days to sew by natural light from my big picture window,
I love the colors of spring, the daffodils and tulips, the sun, the bright green of the leaves and a nice cup of coffee in the sun! Thanks for the chance!
I think just about anyone answering this would answer NO SNOW! LOL That’s one of my favorite things about Spring, but my most favorite is my lilac bushes will be in full bloom, even if for a short time. When they are blooming, because they run the full width of the front of my property, about 150 feet (minus the driveway between the two rows), my entire yard and inside my home is filled with that wonderful scent. That always makes me smile
I love the newness of Spring! Color coming up everywhere!
I love the flowers and the extended daylight! We have had enough of the snow this Winter. We are expecting more tomorrow ugh! Thanks for the chance to win one of the books.
I love the warmer weather!!! I love heat and being outside without a coat.

Things growing in my garden, walking in the sunshine and hanging my clothes out to dry!
I love the Granny Squared quilts. I have a granny square afghan and one of these would be the perfect compliment to that.

I love the colors of spring, especially the yellows, purples and greens! Oh, and the scents of the flowers too are wonderful!

I love when the birds that migrate for the winter return. In the spring, the area comes alive with robins, blue birds, red winged black birds, house finches, and Carolina wrens.
What do I love about spring? The one thing I love the most is being able to open the windows and hear the sweet birds sing! It has been one long, brutal winter in Iowa and I can hardly wait til warm weather!

Oh, I would love a chance to win a copy! Thank you!! Well, spring is my favorite season because of the weather and my wedding anniversary! 😉 xo Heather

I am thankful for pretty Spring fabrics and new patterns to use them in. Thank you for such a lovely giveaway.
I love violets growing wild in the grass!
What I love about Spring is that Winter is over. After this Winter I am so ready to see the flowers blooming and the grass turn green (after all the snow is melted). Thanks for the great giveaway.
Spring is my favorite season! I love the birds singing, the mild weather, the flowers – I love it all!
Milder weather so I can open windows to left fresh air in and can go hiking, biking and running!

I love the fragance of spring flowers, the warmth of the sun on the flowers adds to both the beauty of the flowers and the joy of the long awaited sunshine.
It’s more what don’t I love. Warm weather, flowers, trees with leaves, no heat on. I’m in heaven.
I love everything about spring! Winters are very, very long here and spring brings sunshine and warm breezes. Open windows and birds singing. Hummingbirds buzzing around the feeder. We can go outside without boots, coats, hats, scarves and gloves. The roads are dry or at least not icy anymore. The days are long and we have sun again. I know I mentioned sun already but I really have missed the sun!
I love seeing the new flowers and buds popping out. They look so optimistic and cheerful!!
It’s always stinking hot where I live so Spring brings a “go outside and play in the fresh air” day for my girls instead of “stay inside under the air-con” … needless to say they prefer Spring much better 🙂 Thank you for the opportunity to win!
When Spring comes around I love the sunshine, the hint of warmth in the air, the flowers sprouting up in the garden, the scent of the jasmine and freesias and jonquils. Love it.

I like to see green leaves on trees and flowers everywhere. Thank you for an opportunity to win a copy of Lori’s new book. I hope I win!
Like many others in Spring I enjoy the nice weather, flowers, and taking off my snow tires.
I love the colours of spring when bulbs pop their heads out of the soil.
the Sun is out, the Birds Are singing. The trees are starting to go Green and specially around this Time all the tulips and dafadils are shooting Out the ground with there pretty colors. That inspires me to buy pretty fabric for a new quilt.
Gruß Sylvia
I love that sun is shining and people are happy 🙂
I love the warmth and light from the sun, which has been gone all winter where I live.

Thank you for a great giveaway. I love the spring flowers, the lighter mornings and evenings, and our wedding anniversary.
Fresh breeze, flowers, and Bunnies, of course!!
Flowers and birds and everything green! Plus it doesn’t hurt to be able to take off the sweaters, sweatshirts, turtlenecks and insulated!

I love spring because everything outside wakes up. There are birds everywhere, smells the dogs love to investigate, and plants waiting to be planted or cleaned up. Flowers blooming crown it all! It’s wonderful to live where there are seasons.
I love being able to go outside without bundling up first. Fresh air!
I love daffodils coming up through the brown earth! Flowers and warmer weather are some of the things I love about Spring.

This may sound strange; but one thing that I love about Spring is Spring cleaning! I love to throw open the windows, get the musty winter smell out of our home, and then make everything shine again. I love to see everything so clean and tidy, and I love the fresh clean smell inside as the fresh air replaces the winter fireplace smell. Having a clean home gives me motivation to be creative and SEW!
What I love about Spring is all the color that returns to our dreary surroundings. I really hate the dirty snow when it’s melting, some of these piles are so huge they will be here until May! Lilacs are my favorite flower. Thanks for the give away!

I love to have the windows open for fresh air, even if it is still a bit chilly. And the best part – the first green flowers poking through the earth, a sure sign spring is on the way!
I love the birds in the spring, I’m already seeing some cardinals and blue jays.
We’ve had over 60 inches of snow this winter (since January) and last week I thought we were going to have some Spring weather…no, it snowed 3 inches last night! So I am so ready to see the beautiful green shoots from the ground and glorious hyacinths!!!! I have been making very colorful blocks…make Spring come!!! Lol!!!
What I love about spring is staying outside all day! And strawberry picking! Sadly we moved from SC where we were only 4 mins from the strawberry farm. But I’ve heard there is on near Austin!
I am excited to put in a garden with my kids. We started a few seeds indoors already. I can’t wait for all the snow we have to melt. Thanks for the chance to win. Meg
I love the new greens and rains of spring…where I live it’s brown, dead grass. We don’t get much snow and if we do it melts right away. We’re just waiting on some MUCH needed rain at this point. I love Lori’s style and the pictures of her house she includes in her books ! Thanks
I love Lori Holt’s work! I crochet granny squares all of the time. I ‘d love to have a copy! Thank you!
I love Spring because every thing is being reborn, and getting warm outside but not hot, and my birthday is coming up!
What do I love about Spring? Where do I begin? I love the bird songs, trees in blossom, deep blue skies, cooling breezes, flowers, and green everywhere. Here in California, the grass turns brown in Summer.Thank you for offering this giveaway. I would love to add this book to my collection. I have Lori’s “Quilty Fun” and adore it.
Ooh… I would say I wait and wait to see my peach-orange day lily to blossom to grace the spot on the side of the driveway. It only comes out during spring for a brief time! I love the Granny Squares and I have a ziplock bag FULL of scrappy 2 1/2 squares waiting to be quilted!
Just stumbled on to your blog this morning. Anxious to read and read…
Spring means time to get outside, clean up the yard and put out some color.
I love color, and would love to win Granny Squared.
Fingers are crossed. Thanks, Lisa
My favorite part of spring : the color palette! 🙂
Lori Holt is the best side of the brain, she really reflects all the BEST things in her books, I really want this one!
I have been away from my computer for a while….I NEEDED to get back to my sewing. I just can’t remember if I’ve entered for a chance to win Loris book. It would be a great addition to my quilting library !
I love when the sun shines through the windows and makes everything bright, but not too hot! I would LOVE to win a copy of Lori’s book! I’ve been wanting to make a Great Granny Squared quilt! Thx.
Spring for me is the first lot of daffodils, smiles on faces and glimmering rays of sunshine floating through windows! Thank you for the giveaway!
I love tulips, bunnies, and the warmer weather! I just makes me so happy! 🙂
the spring is light, colours and heat. 🙂
Spring is slow to get here (western MA). We still have lots of snow. Hoping to hear the first Red Winged Blackbirds, that means Spring to me. This is a great give away. Thank you.
I love sunshine and being able to be out and at the cabin and camping. I don’t like hot humid weather but non-heavy coat is wonderful. Bring on the sunshine.
I love seeing the daffodils appearing in my garden!
More daylight, more energy, planting a garden!
I love the sunshine and seeing everything in the garden bloom!
What I most love about spring is the beautiful flowers blooming and the birds chirping flying from tree to tree.
My favorite thing about spring is the warmer weather! Thanks for the giveaway!

My favorite thing about spring is flowers pushing up through the dry grass and snow, peeking their little faces out to see if it’s safe to come out show off their beauty! 🙂
Thought spring was here last week in NE PA. But we got 6 inches of snow last night. Can’t wait for the flowers!
