After you're done freezing up here with me - please head over to Izzy http://dizzyquilts.blogspot.ca/ (from Quebec....waayyyyy that way)
I'm very honored to represent the Territories ... I live in Whitehorse, Yukon - and am I'm from Hay River, NTW - so in a way - I feel I'm representing the NWT too.
I am a geek at heart - spend most of my days sitting at a computer ... and used to spend most of my time playing computer games - but the call to be more creative hit. My first "official" quilt was about 15 years ago for "the Kid" ... I had made the odd quilt off and on at Christmas since then - but it's been over the past 3 years that I've really devoted my time to quilting.
I like to make fairly modern looking quilts ... mug rugs ... table runners ... pretty much will attempt most things. I take part in 2 online Quilting Bees - which have expanding my skills hugely! It's definitely a growing ... and changing ...art form.
Please head on over to my fellow Yukon Ladies' Blogs! :) I've personally met 2 of these wonderful ladies. All three are mighty talented! :)
If you're from the North and blog - please let me know! It would be great to pass along more blogs for next year.
Thanks for Sew Sisters .... and Northcott for sponsoring this wonderful give-away! All you have to do is comment on this post and you'll be entered in to win. The winner can be international and will be announced at the end of the hop - Saturday!!
(I apologize in advance for this post - I have been having horrible problems with Blogger these days!!)

Love the colors, I could ask how cold it is, but I saw the weather report and know what is coming our way, so I made sure I stocked up on food and all the other basics, which leave me free, to quilt!

It's exciting meeting someone from way up north, I'm endlessly fascinated by the beauty of Canada's north country (and big time into someday getting there to see the Bowhead Whales!). Scrumptious is a delicious fabric collection - what a lovely giveaway. Thanks so much...
Scrumptious is soooo very pretty, the red is insane, so clear, thanks for the chance. having a great time on the hop finding like minded quilters

Lovely fabrics. Thanks for sharing your projects & thanks for the chance to win.
Inspiring work and fabric!
I'm from Southern Ontario. Do you actually get your monthly to do list done? I have never been part of a round robin. Sounds like fun.
I'm a no reply blogger, so lets get the email in here.

Bonnie & Camille are one of my favorite designers. This is a great collection. Thanks for sharing and for the giveaway.
The giveaway fabrics are very bright and cheerful. Would love to work with them.
Love this fabric! am making my grandaughter a quilt with it!
Nice to meet you. What a nice give away. Enjoyed seeing what you are working on. Thanks for the chance to work.
Lovely giveaway. Thanks for the chance to win.
There's a reason they call the line Scrumptious....it's because the fabrics are scrumptious! I lived in W/horse many years ago. Crazy as it sounds I loved the winters the most!
Great to meet you! The giveaway fabrics are beautiful.
Scrumptious is a great name for this fabric! A co-worker's daughter lives north and has just started to quilt so I will pass her these blogs too!
This is such a great giveaway!! you do such beautiful work. babscorbitt@gmail.com
My husband and I spent the three summer months of 2012 camping and touring Yukon and Alaska. We spent over a month in Yukon with over a week in Whitehorse. We will definitely return. I made more than a couple of trips to Bear's Paw Quilts and have quite a northern stash which has a special corner of my sewing room and my heart. Yukoners are so friendly; similar to northern Manitobans.:) So glad you are hosting today. Doesn't the name of your giveaway say it all---Scrumptious!
Thanks for taking part in Blogathon Canada, always nice to meet new bloggers.
Your blog is fabulous! Pleasure to "meet" you! Thanks so much for a chance at the give-away...Scrumptious is......well, scrumptious!

There are quilting sisters (and brothers) everywhere in this great land and whenever we travel we make sure to stop in quilt shops everywhere. thank goodness we have a camper to stash away my stash until I get home again to quilt.
lovely combo for a gift. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for them. I use to play computer games all the time too, but in the last year I've been learning long arm quilting. Loved your blog.
Your projects are very cheery. I love Scrumptous too. Thanks for the chance to win.
That fabric looks wonderful. Oh it must be cold up there now in the NWT. It's getting colder more often down here in Ontario.
