  7. I've used ribbon, lace, embroidery, buttons, beads, and even charms– you never know what you might find on one of my quilts. I have some very special handmade buttons that my daughter made for me that I am saving for a special project! 🙂 thank you for the chance to win!

  10. I have tried a little bit of everything. Sometime I hope to make a small quilt (wallhanging) which is heavily embellished with beads and threads.

  11. I am really new to quilting, so I have yet to add a lot of embellishment on my quilts. ( as of yet). I am will to try something new! Thanks for the giveaway!

  13. I embellish with whatever is appropriate for my current project. My latest project has applique, beadwork and braided 'rope'.

  15. what a sweet giveaway! I embellish with beads, sometimes with hotfix crystals, and with stringy stuff (yarn, piping, ribbon etc.)

  20. I like to bead or button on my wall hangings, pillows especially, and table runners. I just love to look at beads and buttons:) Aren't they a decor item?

  24. I've not made a quilt in many years, but I'm planning one with machine applique embroidery. Seems like an easy first step for a newbie. Thank you for offering the giveway!

  26. I haven't started quilting yet though I am hoping when the snow starts falling I will start my first quilt! I do love buttons for all kinds of embellishing on my craft projects though!

  27. So far my embellishment on quilts is hand embroidery. However, my mother and I want to make a crazy quilt so buttons and beads would be so kool to use. Thanks for the lovely giveaway.

  31. I often use beads on my smaller quilts. Right now I have a couple pieces tha t I made in a class with felted wool roving and machine quilting. The beading adds that extra dimension.

  32. I haven't embellished much on quilts but I do like to add beads or hand embroidery to smaller projects. I want to try more ideas with embellishment so I'll be reading your blog more I can see.

  33. the quilts I have made are rather boring. I have used charms, buttons, and crystals. I hope to get a little more adventurous and try more embellishing as I grow as a quilter.

  36. I don't embellish my quilts, but I do like to add those fun touches to my hand embroidery. Thanks for the chance!

  38. I don't usually embellish with more than hand embroidery, but only because I always just want to get the project done and not have to shop around for the "perfect" embellishment. I'm planning on doing a way over-embellished crazy quilt at one point or another. Thanks for the giveaway!
