I was honored to be selected to be one of the Moda All-Stars to participate in this new book. Inside you will find 17 different quilts that use either 1 Charm Pack™, 2 Charm Packs™, or 3 Charm Packs™. Because I always look for the easy way out - my quilt uses 1 Charm Pack™ and some added bits and pieces you all have in your fabric stash.
This Tea Time quilt used 1 red and white Charm Pack™, 2/3 yards red for piecing and binding and 1/4" yard of linen.
There is much to choose from
I was particularly enchanted with Carrie and Tammy's quilt.
It used Grand Traverse Bay Charms with a red Moda cross weave. On the strength of this quilt I just ordered a bolt of that cross weave. Expect to see it in future quilts.
Make a comment about Martingale, Moda All-Stars, Charm Packs, luscious woven fabrics, or anything at all and you will win a copy of this book - and a few Charm Packs™. Just comment before midnight Sunday March 26th.
Also go to the Martingale Blog to enter their give-away for lots of Charm Packs™.
Laters,
Laurie

Charm Packs are becoming my "go to" purchases next to Fat Quarters. They are so useful for applique. Great to see some piecing options.
Charm Packs are the way to succumb to fabric yearning, without adding bulk to your stash. And they are easy to store. Tea Time is a perfect project to use your pretties!
I love charm packs, and look forward to seeing the new patterns!
I have many, many charm packs that need to be turned into quilts. This book would offer lots of inspiration.
I have a lot of charm packs I have bought over the years. I need to start making some quilts with them. This book sounds like a great place to start!!!
I'm like Jill..WAAYY too many charm packs looking to be used here! I guess I've seen something about the book elsewhere as I, too, loved that Cross Weave quilt.
I love charm packs but I am much better at buying them than using them. This looks like a good book to solve that problem. Your tea time quilt makes me think of summer picnics :0)
I love that Tea Time Quilt! Oh the possibilities!
I love the Moda All Star books and Martingale is such a great publisher. I too have a stash of charm packs and would welcome some inspiration and ideas to use them.
Looks like MORE wonderful quilt inspirations!
I love charm packs, and books about charm packs, and moda... you get the idea!

I have a drawer full of charm packs, so I need to put this book on my list!
I don't have any charm packs but think I need to start! And I love that Moda cross weave red. Which red is it? I need some, too.
I did not know that Moda had a woven fabric! I love David Textiles woven fabrics and I'd bet my boots that Moda's would be just as wonderful. I will be looking for them in my LQS! I must say that I don't usually buy charm packs per se. However, being a lover of scraps, I frequently chop up fabric pieces into 5" squares. Thank you for the opportunity to win this new book from Martingale. It looks fabulous!
I love Tea Time in more ways than one.
I love charm packs.....little nuggets of fabric goodness that make me happy.
I love charm packs but am better at admiring (and acquiring) them than using them. This book would help with that for sure!
This book looks like it's full of great ideas. I cut my scraps into 5" and 2" squares; this looks like a very interesting book to me.

I have been looking forward to the release of this book. I intend to make your quilt as well as Carrie's. This series of books has been very inspiring! My plan is to make several colors of your quilt to use as additions to baskets of goodies I bake for my friends. Always love to give a two-fer! Colleen Coffman
I could use some patterns to incorporate the use of charm packs. Thanks for a chance. Love your red and blue.
Looking forward to seeing this book - always need more inspiration!! Great use of charm packs!!! Lovely quilts! mumbird3(at)gmail(dot)com
I love charm packs but sometimes don't know what to do with them. Can't wait to get this book!
The red cross weave is a lovely red. Not too bright almost salmon in appearance and looks lovely. The book sounds like a fun concept. Charm pack doll quilts? Hmmm...
Happy stitching from NC
I love your little Tea Time quilt! And I love the Moda All-Stars books it's so great to have a book with so many amazing designers.
I love MODA fabrics - I always know I can trust the product. and it is very fun to get new ways to combine the precuts. My fingers are crossed because I love all things Minick/Simpson, so more is always welcome!!!! I also, may need to order some red cross-weave..that is fun.
At my last visit to the United States I bought a FQ bundle of Grand Traverse Bay. I am still looking for the right pattern to use it.....hopefully soon!
I have a stash of charm packs ready to be put to use with this book. Thanks.
I'm looking forward to seeing this book and ways to use some charm packs.
Like a lot of others I seem to be a collector of charm packs. This book will be perfect for working down my charm pack drawer--you know--so I can buy more!
I love Moda fabrics. I pick up charm packs and fat quarters more than I buy yardage. I pull out a charm pack and get to creating. I would share the book with my 4-H quilters! Thank you for sharing the wonderful creations!
When I began quilting my first love was charm squares and I still love them. Thanks for a chance to win. Janita
I have a stash of charm packs just waiting for this book!
I seem to have accumulated a lot of charm packs over the years. I think this book will help me use them.
I love your Tea Time quilt. And thanks for pointing out Carrie and Tammi's quilt with the red crossweave. I've been too distracted by the black crossweave to look at the other colors and I love the red with the Traverse Bay fabric. I think this Martingale book would be fantastic for scraps too!
Your fabric is just yum. I think charm packs are a great way to get a piece of every fabric in a range.
What a winning combination--Moda fabrics, fabulous Moda designers, Charm packs and clever quilt patterns!! And all for the support of a charity. Thanks to all who contributed to the Martingale book. clara-chandler@att.net
Yummy quilts!!! Cannot wait to get my hands on this book!!!
Love the Moda All stars books...they all have something for everyone. A bolt of crossweave?? I have not worked with that yet...sounds cool.
Moda, Martingale, charm packs= some of my favorite things! Tea time is too cute!
Always looking for new ways to use charm packs and new excuses to buy them! Thx for the giveaway.
I love your tea time quilt, my favorite colors and so cute! Sounds like a fun book!
Another great book to add to my list..
Really interested in this book! And that crosswise fabric.
I have quite a collection of Charm Packs ... sounds like this book is just what I need! Thanks, Laurie, for the opportunity to win a copy!
I love charm packs, they are so versatile and can be used for so many things, I love using them to make tote bags. I even join the charm squares together to make scrappy handles. xx
This will be a great book to have. Can't wait! And I like Carrie' and Tammy's quilt too.
love charm packs they add so much to your stash
Your little charm pack quilt is, well, charming! I haven't used charm packs that often but do like simple and clever patterns! How fun to join other great designers in this book. Thanks for the chance to win.
I have several charm packs in my stash just waiting for inspiration. This book looks like it would do just that. Thanks for the chance at your giveaway.
Before your post, I had already seen your little quilt on Pinterest and posted it to my "to do" list, but in a larger size.
The linen plaid you used in the mini quilt is so perfect to set off the pieced blocks!
I love charm packs. Thank you for your giveaway. I have a large stash of charm packs.
Just ordered some Grand Traverse Bay (a charm pack, jelly roll and yardage,) now I am thinking I am going to have to get some of that red fabric as well. Rosie is a bad, bad influence on me and my wallet. :o)

I have used charm pack only once. Love your work. Karin :)
Congratulations Laurie on becoming a chosen Moda All Star but then we don't need Moda to tell us that ! I am going to keep on swimming in hopes of becoming a winner in one of your special giveaways! All the best to you ! Love your fabrics!
I have a couple of charm packs that I've had for a while and couldn't decide how to use them. This book has some great ideas!
LK Smith
Your use of one charm pack is just perfect for starting a sweet project and finishing it, quickly. It looks very satisfying to see a beautiful quilt in a basket. Makes me want to hand quilt again.
Charm the packs are a fun and inexpensive way to enjoy an entire fabric line. I love to pick them up and would love to have this book.
Never used a charm pack but would love to try once. The little tea time quilt is lovely.

Very cute quilt, Laurie. Have not used the charm packs, but it looks like an interesting project/quilt to try. Thanks for the chance. ~Christine
I love Charm packs -Get a little bit of the whole collection - and they do not take up much room
Would love some ideas on how to use charm packs. Love your little quilt - looks perfect for summer.
Charlotte
I have LONG been a fan of pre-cuts and it seems "nickel" charms are the most versatile in the quilts I make. This looks like a GREAT book. Glad to hear I am not the only person who will order an entire bolt of fabric for a "basic" when they fall in love with one! Linda
Looks like another have-to-have book considering the charm packs I've got in stash! Love your Tea Time. Would be great in Blue and White too!
I love finding new ways to use the charm packs. Would love this book!
I would love to win this book. It would make a great addition to the 5" die I just bought to help in using my scraps. Thank you for the chance to win
Your red and white check quilt looks like Summer. I love using charm packs.
Thanks for the chance to win the book.
Love your quilt: perfect red-blue and white combination!
Charm the packs are a fun and inexpensive way to enjoy an entire fabric line. I love to pick them up and would love to have this book.
