My inspiration would have to be the HGTV MB CQing girls. I also want to add that I would love, love, love to win. I will definitely tell about this giveaway on my blog, but sadly I don't think too many people visit my blog. But I go there to see who all else has posted something new, because I love the read others blogs.
Go Talia!!! Woooo hoooo!! If you don't provide inspiration, I don't know who does! Wouldn't it be nice to win this goodie bag!! You've certainly put some nice things together for this prize.
I've mentioned you on my blog at

I hope it sends some good people your way.
I would love to win your package of goodies!! I am a new CQ'er (thanks to some wonderful ladies at HGTV) and I think the "BUG" has biten my behind real good!
I am off to post about your giveaway on my blog!
What fun things you included in your prize! My inspiration comes from the internet and all the lovely blogs I visit each day. They inspire me create my crazy quilt designs and learn more about crazy quilting.
Yea! What a rockin giveaway! I've scheduled a link to this post to go live on my blog tomorrow morning (Central USA time). I hope it brings you a few extra clicks.

My CQ inspiration is a book my mom just gave me at my baby shower, 100 Good Wishes. My husband wrote everyone that was invited a letter telling them to bring a piece of fabric to add to the quilt. What's crazy is they think I'm able to make a quilt. My mom will definitely be helping.
I'm just starting to sew again, so I'd love to do something based on Archaeopteryx. I mean, the fossils are just spectacular and soft and delicate...
My crazy quilting endeavors have pretty much all gone bust - I just don't have the cq knack, I thought, until I started crazy quilting on cards, using paper. I've made a couple cards so far for the upcoming holiday season, using scraps of paper cut and glued onto a ground paper, in the shape of trees and ornaments, and then I've pierced holes for embroidery "seam" treatments on the paper. They're turning out pretty cute!
My "inspiration" when it comes to any kind of crazy quilting - and what first kindled the desire to try it - was Allison Aller. Allie's work is just gorgeous!

Oh, my mother Tats with a shuttle. A photograph of me was taken from a dress she made me, when I was a Junior in College. All along the collar of the dress was her tatting.
I'm just beginning to learn how to crochet. As far as a crazy quilt goes, I'm still learning how to sew, and how to piece strips together with my Singer Featherweight 221.
I think I have craft ADD!!!

I get most of my inspiration from many of the european and australian based blogs! They seem to have a new eye to the whole craft scene.
Great givewaway! I hope I'm the lucky winner! :)
Hi Talia, I just wanted you to know I pop in now and then. I have so much CQ stuff, you don`t need to include me in your drawing, but I wanted to say Hi!!
Tammy
I only wish I knew how to quilt! My grandma does though, I'd love to win this so I can get her to quilt me something!!!
Is it time yet...lol
I had to come see how many people entered, so I would know what the odds were. I'm getting anxious and nervous.
I have done most kinds of quilting but only one cq block so far. i hope to do a beautiful one to frame in the future. I would love to win! Happy quilting.
Today's the day. WoooooooooHooooooooo.
Well, tonight anyway, close enough.
