Summer Camp Glamps and Giveaway!

Today is the big day!  The end of Glamp Summer Camp.   The design team, along with 9 other followers of The Quilted Fish blog have submitted photos of their Glamps.   I have had a few sneak peeks and from what I have seen, they are simply stunning.

The team is not competing, but do go over and you will see that several of us have participated and have giveaways.

I also have a giveaway.  In the rare case you didn't know which one was mine.... here it is.   Of course, it has circles and 3D flowers!

Now onto the giveaway.   Amanda of The Quilted Fish, is generously letting me give away some of her fabric she designed.  You will see 3 FQ bundles.   I will pick 2 winners and they will get a surprise of a bundle mailed to them.  

What do you have to do to win?   Well, go over and vote on The Quilted Fish blog.  Come back and tell me you did.   That is 1 entry.   On a purely selfish note, I want to get to 300 followers.   So if you blog about it, you get 2 votes=)

Now go and enter the giveaway on my fellow team members blogs too:

Summer Camp Glamp is Done

I was up at the crack of dawn, literally.   I had two projects that were due by the end of the week, and I always stress that leaving it to the last minute may not work out.   So I got them both done today.  

One of them was the Glamp.     Here are Amanda's Glamps, and you can get the pattern and the hardware in a handy little kit here.

Now for Summer Camp the design team was sent kits, and asked to make a Glamp.   We could do whatever we wanted.  ( I may have went slightly overboard on this part).  Amanda also has 20 followers from her blog doing the same thing.   So that is alot of Glamps for Summer Camp to be shown.   I believe that the unveiling takes place this Thursday.   

Now I am pretty sure you are going to know which one is mine.   I can't reveal until our fearless leader gives the go ahead, but I can tell you there will be a giveaway involved!   

To bait you, here is a tiny peek of my Glamp.

  Are you loving it?  Or fearful that I went over the edge?   

Glamp Summer Camp

My Glamp kit arrived yesterday!   I have until August 11th to get it finished and then we are all posting them here and over at Amanda's site.  This is her pattern and she has a ton of prizes and giveaways for those making Glamps and those of us on her design team to give out to our followers.   Yay Amanda!

When I first opened it and saw the hardware, I got a little freaked out.  I do not have a technical mind whatsoever.   When the kids hit a wrong button on the tv, I have no idea how to get the picture back.   I decided that I should at least read the pattern before having a complete meltdown.   I am so glad I did, it is super easy to assemble!   I couldn't believe it.  I don't think I am even going to ask my DH to help!

I have my fabric picked out and  a rough sketch of my design.  All I need now is some time to get it done.    

One more thing, if any of you are having a burning desire to have your own fabric line, check out the contest here.

Friday Tutorial and your help is needed!

The design team is at it again!  Jana is up with her uber fab  tutorial.

I have to tell you, Jana has to be one of the funniest people I have ever met.   I mean hilarious.   Go and read a few posts on her blog, and I know you will agree.  This quilt is fast, cute and oh so cuddly.  Read about it here.

Now I am going to need your help... Amanda, our fearless leader of the design team has us in Summer Camp.   She has us making a Glamp!   See awesome photo:

Now I admit, this is pretty cool.  She sent me all the hardware and the kit.   When I say 'sent', I mean she mailed the team their Glamp packages.   The rest of the team got theirs.   The Glamp is due August 11th.   Guess what lonely Canadian doesn't have her Glamp package yet?   (I'll give you a hint, I am Canadian)  Did I mention it was due August 11th?

Amanda is having prizes, so if you want to participate you can order a Glamp kit here.

Don't worry if you can't participate, dear sweet Amanda is giving us prizes to give out.

 In the meantime, if you have any crazy ideas how I can totally make my Glamp beautiful via many, many embellishments, please leave a comment.   It would be so appreciated as I only have till August 11th, and don't even have my kit yet.  Have I mentioned that yet?

I guess that would be really embellishing if I had to actually make the whole Glamp including hardware?

 Do you think the team would notice if I mod podged fabric around a balloon and stuck a flashlight up the hole?   I would call it the 'Glampalloon'.  I just know my faithful followers would vote best all around Glamp, wouldn't they?  Well, I bet you would if I promised you fabric=)

There is also the option of just rolling fabric around a candle till it gets really thick and lighting the 'Glampandle'.   Now I may have to just light this in the tub or on a lake.

I could potentially glue squares on the front of my microwave and when I reheat my mashed potatoes, the 'Glamprowave' will light up.  

What about quilting some covers over the headlights on my car and calling it the 'Glampmobile'?

I guess we all better hope I get my package soon, before things get really ridiculous around here.
