Hand-Painted Fabric Give-a-way! I've recently started painting my own fabric, and to kick off my new blog, I'm offering these 3 pieces of hand-painted fabric to one lucky winner. The three pieces are 12" x 12" each and feature high-quality red and blue fabric paint. The paint is on both sides of the fabric and is washable.

The fabric on the left has sun-printed spots and the fabric on the right has been salted to produce the effect of little fireworks.

(So if you do both, you'll get 2 entries)
If you leave a comment, make sure there's a way to contact you. Winner will be drawn at random, contest ends Sunday, June 14, 2009.

Pam Geisel, the artist behind For Quilts Sake My name is Pam Geisel and this is the first quilt that I made, back in 2001. What's unusual about me making quilts, is when I was in junior high, I took shop class because I didn't want to learn how to sew or even how to cook (I still don't cook).

I took a class on piecing and quilting by hand and I was hooked. I loved how it came out but it just took so long.
I decided then that if I used the sewing machine, I only had to know how to go forward and backward; I didn't have to know how to make button holes or put in zippers. Since then I've been learning from books and making it up as I go along.
Now I create and sell original, handmade art quilts and quilt-related art both on-line and at art shows in southwest Ohio. To see my quilts on-line, visit my website at www.forquiltssake.com.
