Well it has come around very quickly indeed, but the Christmas Quilt Hamper is making its public appearance today.
Well it has come around very quickly indeed, but the Christmas Quilt Hamper is making its public appearance today.
The first issue launched in August and all 100 hampers sold out in no time. So this time I am stepping it up with 150 hampers.
Part of the value of the hamper is that you get to join a very special club on Facebook - Sarah Payne's Quilt Hamper group (and you can only be accepted if you have brought the hamper!). This gives you access to special tutorials and Go Live sessions designed to support you with your hamper, as well as a really lovely community. As a member of the group, you get exclusive access to the next Hamper sale for 1 week before general launch. Well, that week is now up and 80% of existing members have re-ordered. So that means there are still 70 opportunities for you to join in with this fun project. You must be on Facebook to take part!
This range of exclusive Quilt Hampers will be dispatching directly to you quarterly. Each box will be loosely themed, with this one being based around Christmas. But part of the fun is you don't know what it is until you get it - I just give you 3 clues and you have to guess the rest. This hamper's clues are Christmas, Blue and Dresden! That's it. You will just have to wait until you open the parcel to find out more!
Each
hamper will contain all the elements you will need to make an exclusive
small quilt - approximately 40 inches square, including all the fabric,
wadding, backing and binding. Fabrics will be supplied by Craft Cotton
Company - so you know the quality will be great! There will also be a
bonus kit for you to make an extra something with the scraps left over.
This Quilt Hamper will also contain a Simplicity ruler and a little
gift too. You will just need to add
thread! This Hamper is a machine sewing project, but you can hand
stitch it if you wish.
The
bundle will include a full colour pattern for both the quilt and the
extra project, plus support through a special Facebook Group which you
will be added to once you have placed your order. This is why I need
your Facebook name (see the button below) This group will allow you to
chat to other Hamper recipients, and ask me any questions. I will also
host a special go live once you have received your hampers and we can
enjoy a cup of tea and a biscuit together (included) as we go through
what is in your first box. For this hamper it is Hot Chocolate and Flumps :) There will also be exclusive videos on the
skills you will need to get going, including binding and quilting.
The
total cost of the box is £55 with free postage. - I'm afraid that I can
only offer free postage to mainland Britain at this time, but overseas
postage is however available on request. This first hamper is a limited
run of 150 and as I said, 80 have already gone to existing members, so first come first served. The Hampers will be dispatched with in the next 2 weeks - exact dates will be communicated through the Facebook
group because I have to pack all these myself.
So if you fancy joining me for some quilty fun, then get involved with the Quilt Hamper!
Just to tease you, this is the project from the Summer hamper - the clues were Bright, Tropical and Hexagons. And No - it wasnt EPP!
And here is the bonus projects - a bag frame and bag tutorial!
Who knows what you might find in the Christmas hamper :
