Square-agonals Giveaway!!!
This site contains affiliate links from which we may receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. Thank you for your support!
Earlier in the year I got a surprise email from Sandi Blackwell who is the author of one of my favorite quilt books Square-agonals. The email was to tell me that she wanted to send me copies of her new books!!! I was so excited!! But I was in Australia at the time, and didn’t know where I was going to be… there or here… so we put off sending the books for a little while, and then eventually got them sent here… It was so fun when they arrived! So many new patterns and fun projects to work on!
Both my copies were nicely signed by Sandi:
Even more exciting was that Sandi wanted to let me give away a copy of each of these books on my blog!!!! Well, even more exciting for you guys at least!!! So I said, that is a wonderful idea, but I have no idea how to post something here in Arabia, so would she please send the giveaway copies to Alice, so that she could be in charge of posting the books to whoever wins…
So Sandi sent the books to Alice… but not only did she send books to giveaway on my blog, she sent Alice her own copies as well!!!! Isn’t that so kind of her?
And now it is your chance to win a copy of Sandi’s new books… there is one of each to win… and two winners chosen… here’s what you need to do:
1. Leave a comment on this post – easy!
2. For an extra chance, blog about this giveaway and come back here with an extra comment to tell me!
The giveaway will close on Monday 29th of July….. a week from now…. so, spread the news.. and start commenting!
well gobsmackingly gaaagaaahh that is so lovely of Sandi..I just love that word Square-agonals, cheers Vickie
Just looking at the reviews on Amazon – it’s certainly whet my appetite, and I’ve love to have a go myself! Thank you to Sandi for the giveaway, and of course to you, Joy, and Alice too!
They both look wonderful! I love the blue quilt on that one cover! Thanks for the chance to win one of these Joy! :0)
Love the covers, just could imagine the good quilts inside.
wow thats pretty exciting and very kind of Sandi………..Does Sandi have a blog??? love the look of the quilt on the blue book…..
Now that sounds interesting – square-agonals!!! Never heard of them and I usually keep up with most new takes and rulers, which I seem to have a fetish for. I am off to the Quilt and Craft show at Jeff’s Shed on Friday with my daughter, so will keep a look out for them there too. Probably see them everywhere (giggle). Have you made anything from them?
Thanks to both you and Sandi for thinking of a giveaway. Will take a quick peak when I have time at the sites.
I’ve never heard of Square-agonals until I saw these books. Went to Amazon to check them out and it seems to be a great way to do the blocks on point without fabric waste. Thanks for the chance to win one and thanks to Sandi for being so thoughtful and supplying both you and Alice with copies.
I have her books on my “wish list”. Wonderful Giveaway 🙂
I love to learn new quilt techniques! Would love to win one of these books! Thank younforvthe chance.
I was recently introduced to square-agonals and would love a book of my own to play with. thanks for the give away!!

Checked out your book on line. Looks awesome! Love Laundauer Pub., too. Many of my books are from there. Can’t wait to browse a little closer.

I have made some Squareagonals projects and found them to be fun. I gave them all away but their new owners love them! They were from the first book. Give it a try!

Awesome name…..Square-agonals! Thank you for sharing, Joy, and the opportunity to win!
Newbie at quilting 🙂 These look like they would have a few easy patterns. Thanks for the chance.
Oh, these books look terrific. This is the type of piecing I love to do. Will share with the group I quilt with at church. We make quilts to give to the children in cancer treatment at the hospital. We just had our half year party and had 40 quilts and 22 pillow cases completed.
Thanks for the opportunity.
The books look great! Thanks for the chance to win.
Interesting designs, nice fabric combinations. Kind of you to sign and give away. Thank you.
I just wanted to say…..I have all 3 of Sandi’s books!! I was privileged to have Sandi stay at my home for a couple of days last week. She gave a talk at our local quilt guild and a work shop the next day. All of this while she was on her way to The Quilters Hall of Fame in Marion, Indiana. What a wonderful lady, teacher and new friend. She truly blessed my life.
What a wonderful thing to do so that others can share the fun!
thanks
It would be great to win anything, something new like that would be extra special .thank you.
Hope I win! Looks like a good book.

What a fabulous giveaway – count me in please!
These books look great. I’d love to have one.
I did post about the books and didn’t see them at the quilt show, but there was so much to see and so little time, I may have missed them. You certainly have a good bunch of comments and I’m afraid I don’t know how to do the link up thing so people who visit my blog can go straight through to your blog or anything like that, so sorry Joy, Sandi and Alice. Hope your are having a great weekend.
