Welcome to Blogathon Canada!

Oh I am so excited that you are here! I was stoked when Sew Sisters contacted me to be a host on this year's Blogathon Canada. What an opportunity to hop around and meet amazing Canadian Quilters.  Marjorie from Marjorie's Busy Corner and I are representing the Maritimes today on the hop.
 
 
http://sewsisters.blogspot.ca/p/blogathon-canada-2013.html

Without further ado, Hi! My name is Adrienne and I would like to welcome you to Chezzetcook Modern Quilts. Chezzetcook what you say? I know, it is a funny name, and likely you are not sure how to pronounce it. Chezzetcook is a small community on the Eastern Shore of Nova Scotia, where I grew up. If you are a local, you drop the "t", add an "n" and say it fast - Chezzencook. Go on, give it a try...

I have been quilting for about 17 years, and blogging about my quilty adventures for nearly 2. I have an addiction to fabric, and quilting is the way that I cope with it. Stitching that cotton goodness into modern designs, taking it's picture and then writing about it. True Happiness!
 
The year so far has been a big one for me. I started organising two virtual quilt bees; ModQImprovB Canada and Global Scrap Bee. The first is helping me conquer my fear of improv, and the other links me with quilters from all over the world. Fun Stuff! Oh and I started this little thing called The Library Project. Basically a commitment to actually make something out of all of those quilting books that I buy :)
 
 
The next big thing on the agenda, and the one I am most atwitter about - I am staring a chapter of The Modern Quilt Guild here in the Maritimes. Our first meeting is scheduled for November 27th. I cannot wait to connect with other like minded quilters in our region.
 
http://maritimemqg.blogspot.ca/
 
So, lots of exciting stuff in the works around here. But here's the thing. At the end of the day, regardless of bees, projects, guilds, I still just like to quilt! After the day job, I crave to sit at the sewing machine and stitch up that fabric I cut a minute ago. So, I think the best way to get to know me is by having a looksie at some of my finished quilts!
 
"Frames" is my most recent finish, and is made up of Blocks from my Bee Mates at ModQImprovB Canada
 
This is "Bliangles" So named, because, well, let's just say, those triangle tips may be a tad blunt in spots.
 
"Beach Cabins" was a commissioned quilt that I made this summer. It lives in Ottawa now, but my client wanted a beachy feel and I think I nailed it :)
 
"Stamps for Melanie" was also a commission, in fact I am about to make my third stamps quilt. But I am not tired of it yet with all of those delicious fabrics!
 
Everyone likes a Baby quilt right?! "Baby Bella" is now spending quilty time with Baby Elizabeth.
 
"Foreign Currency" is likely my favourite finish this year. It lives on my couch every day and I never tire of it's simple boldness (nor do my kitty cats) 
Besides introducing myself, the other part of my hosting job today  is to introduce you to other Maritime Quilters. I have had a blast looking for other bloggers in my back yard. I think if you take the time to visit, you will find yourself seriously inspired! Here they are...

 
Now, what you have all been waiting for, the PRIZES!

PRIZE ONE
From me to you, I have picked this gorgeous bundle of Kona Brights. Just leave a comment on this blog post and these 10 Fat Quarters could be yours. I will make a random draw from all of the comments on November 24th. Remember, if you are a no reply blogger, leave me your e-mail. If I cannot reach the first pick, I will randomly draw again.

PRIZE TWO
Sew Sisters is also offering a prize during Blogathon Week. Hop back to their blog for a chance to win and delicious prize sponsored by Northcott
http://www.northcott.net/

THERE'S MORE!
That is two chances to win, but it doesn't stop there! Every Host on Blogathon Canada is giving away their own prize, so make sure to visit them all for more chances to win great stuff from Sew Sisters! Here is the schedule. Have Fun!

  180. A woman after my own heart!!! I too am terrified of free motion quilting. I have so many projects started and they have all stopped dead at the quilting part. Hit me over the head with a sewing machine! But thank you so much for tips and ideas! Love your blog and will become a regular follower. I am not a traditional quilter and love your quilts. I really love your quilt "Frames". Hope your day today is as sunny as ours is, in Prince Edward Island! Thank you!
