The prize: Green and white die cut pieces to make 144 3 1/2" Drunkard's Path units, enough for a 36" square baby quilt or wall hanging. Or tote bag, or whatever other idea you can cook up. The pieces are cut from new, pre-washed, 100% cotton fabric. I'm including a few extras, just because things sometimes go wrong and it's stressful to have just exactly enough to finish the project, and 1/3 yard of the green fabric to use for binding your project.
The smaller Drunkard's Path die is my absolute favorite of my AccuQuilt dies. It's the one I used to cut the pieces for Cabbage Roses. Curved piecing is a bit of a challenge, but with die cut pieces and notches to match up, it's not that hard. Starting with the die cuts has given me enough practice that I'm gearing up to try some curved patterns that I'm going to have to cut myself.

This actually looks like a fun project to try. Thanks for the giveaway!
I just sewed my very first drunkard's path a couple of days ago. It was neat. The only thing I didn't like was trying to cut the darn things from my paper template :( So this would be great to win!
I am still a follower! Thanks for the chance to win the Drunkard's path blocks. What a cool giveaway! Drunkard's Path is one of my favorites!!!
ohh Im a follower already, would love to win, what an awesome prize, thanks for shipping internationally :)
I'm a follower! I do it through Google Reader- It has changed my blog reading life and I love it.
I am very interested in the drunkards path die- I have a GO! and was thinking about purchasing the die but havent been brave enough.
Thank you for the possibility to win and see if I need the die! LOL.
I'd love a chance to win! And I love following your blog.
What a great giveaway! Thanks so much! I have a die cutter myself but not that particular block, and I would love to try my hand.
It's the cutting that has kept me from doing this block. Wonder if the die works with the GO Baby..hhmmm. Thanks for the chance.
I would love to make some Drunkard's Path!! The cutting is more off putting than the sewing!!
I love following your blog. I do not have a Go Baby have wondered about them a lot. Would love to try out that block it looks like a lot of fun.

I would love winning the blocks since Dunkard's Path is one of my favorite blocks. Since I don't understand how the reader works and don't want to take the time to figure it out so I don't follow anyone's blog. I just save the blogs on my favorites (yours is one) and then go through the list and read them that way. I check my list at least once a day.
I would love to win, but will have to google to figure out how to quilt them!
I added linky friends as a way for people to follow me, and have already gotten 17 new followers that way.
I am a follower - I read your blog in Google Reader through an RSS feed. I would love to win this prize because I have never sewn a curve in my life! Well... not intentionally at least - LOL! Thanks for the great giveaway!!
I enjoy your blog. Thanks for the chance to win. I would like to try some curved piecing.
Thanks so much for the chance. I have a baby on the way and love green. Thanks again. I'm a follower too.
I would love to enter. But mainly I'd like to say that I've skimmed many of your posts and your quilts are really inspiring.
Have a great weekend!
it would help with my quilt thank you maybe i will be lucky and win
To win the green and white die cut pieces to make 144 -3 1/2" Dunkard's Path units is just awesome. I could certainly come up with an idea. After all, I look forward to your blog for ideas, which you generouly share for all of your readers. This is just wonderful.

I've yet to sew with die cuts or curves; winning your giveaway would give me a chance to do both! Thanks for the opportunity.
Oh, I'd love to try this. I've never done a drunkards path before
What an awesome giveaway.
St Pats day is special for me so I would love to win this giveaway.
Hugs
I`d love to try this curve sewing.I run when I see curves but you have cutting them and that is fantastic.Thanks.I`m a follower.
This would be such a great way to learn to do curved seams. Thank you for the chance to win this. I have been following you for quite a while now.
I am happy following your blog. Thanks for the chance to win. I would like to try the drunkard path block.
Uh oh, the prospect of curves! Hopefully having them pre-cut for me would make them a little less scary. I've got a few friends having little ones soon, and this looks like the great start to a project. Thanks for the chance!
This is an incredibly generous give away. While I am nervous about trying curves so early in my quilting life I have some lovely friends who I am sure will show me the ropes if I win.
Thanks for the giveaway; I have never tried curved piecing before but would love an excuse to have a go!
I so want to make a drunkard's path quilt and I think it is all the cutting that holds me off - circles and curve stitching doesn't bother me. This would be so super!
Awesome! I've been wanting to try my hand at a drunkards path, but have been intimidated about cutting and piecing curves. But I want to challenge myself, and this would definitely help with the whole process.
I love the green colour and making a bag would be a great way to use it. Have always wanted to do this pattern. Thanks for the chance.

working on a mini drunkard's path
quilt. The finished square size is 1 1/2 inch. The completed di-
mensions will be 9in x 9in. This is
my first try at curved piecing. I
thought that I would start small so
that I could complete it. Wonderful giveaway!!

I'm a newer machine quilter - haven't tried curves yet - but would love the chance to learn. Thanks for the chance to try a new skill with such beautiful precuts.
What a great idea for a prize. I have that die on my wish list but don't know when I'll be able to buy one. I've not attempted curves yet so this would give me the chance to give them a try AND even better is that I have two grandchildren that I need to make a quilt for; one 6 months old and another 5 weeks old. (one boy/one girl)
I am already a follower via GFC and email. Thank you for the great giveaway.
