Robert Kaufman’s (and my) Swiss Chocolate patterns and another giveaway!

Posted on February 7, 2011March 23, 2015 by Amanda Murphy — 14 Comments

Sherri of “A Quilting Life” has been dreaming up a recipe in Swiss Chocolate that I just can’t wait to see. She should be posting later on today and the best part is that SHE HAS ANOTHER SWISS CHOCOLATE GIVEAWAY FOR YOU, so head on over to her site! Of course, you also still have time to enter Ryan’s giveaway on I’m Just a Guy Who Quilts and the Ambrosia giveaway on this site.

Robert Kaufman asks me to do a complimentary pattern for them for every collection. Since Swiss Chocolate comes in Roll-Ups and Ten Squares, I designed a pattern that uses both precuts and incorporates all the fabrics. (Swiss Chocolate Roll-Ups and Ten Squares will be available at Fat Quarter Shop at the end of the month. They have yardage now, but are waiting on precuts.)

“Swiss Chocolate” for Robert Kaufman

Here is another complimentary pattern for a chocolate pincushion to make with the leftovers….

Hope you enjoy!

And the Swiss Chocolate Giveaway winner is…

Quilary, who said…

I’ve just become a follower – I came over from Fat quarterly. Delicious fabrics – I love the mocha. I would like to make some cafe curtains for my kitchen and accessories, like oven mitts and placemats as well. I’ve got blue in the tiles and this would make it all look very posh! Thanks for the chance to win some.

You all had such nice comments, I wish I had pre-cuts to give everyone!

Congratulations, Quilary! I’ll be in touch…

Ryan Walsh interviewed me about the development of Swiss Chocolate over at I’m Just a Guy Who Quilts! So, in case you haven’t had about enough of me blabbering on about how excited I am about this collection, hop on over to his blog and leave a comment for another chance to win a precut of Swiss Chocolate. (Thanks for the interview, Ryan.)

In conjunction with this, I thought it might be fun to do an Ambrosia giveaway.
