Liberated Churn Dash Quilt Pattern ~ A Giveaway
Remember this little guy? One of my favorite quilt blocks from my liberated sampler was the wonky churn dash. In my original post, I linked to a tutorial by Sarah at Sew Joy Creations, so you could make your very own liberated churn dash block.

Sarah has since developed a fantastic quilt pattern using these liberated churn dash blocks! Her pattern is 22 pages, full of color photos and very detailed. And the best part is, Sarah has offered to give away a copy of the pattern to one of you. All you need to do is leave a comment! What fabrics would you use for your Liberated Churn Dash quilt? I will pick a winner Thursday, July 19th in the evening. Good luck everyone!
++ Closing comments to pick a winner! ++

The winner is #61, Jen B! Jen said “I think I would piece together charms from swaps to “make” some fabric. Maybe my neutrals with a turquoise background.”
Congratulations Jen! I will be in contact!

Absolutely love it and would use polkadots or Kaffe’s.
This is great. I’d probably use La Dee Da by Erin McMorris.
This pattern is fantastic! I would use the monkey fabrics I collected earlier this year at the AQS quilt show in Lancaster – since ‘churn dash’ is also known as ‘monkey wrench’
Thanks for offering this giveaway!
wow what a neat pattern. Right now I am in a big yellow and grey kick so maybe yellow and grey…LOL
I loved this pattern from the moment I saw it!
I’d make it with solids!
I might use either Loulouthi or Curious Nature if I won this pattern. LOVE IT!!
I think the movement and the humour of these blocks is great! I would use a combination of Suzuko Koseki’s lettering fabrics and Malka D’s Dye colours and patterns – that would be really zingy!
How fun is this! I was examining your first quilt block, wondering how an entire quilt would look, and then as I scrolled down, I said “Wow!” Out loud, even, with no one else around. The pattern is right on target – I’d love to do a quilt like this.
Lovely quilt! I would make it in Kate Spain’s Good Fortune, I think. Thank you for the chance to win the pattern.

WOW! I am loving it! I’ve not done anything ‘wonky’, being a traditionalist, but I would certainly give this beauty a try!!
Ooo I love it! think I’d use my black and white and grey stash of fabrics with a hint of lime green or purple…
I love this!! – I have been struggling with a huge older fabric stash – trying to incorporate my older fabrics with my new fabrics – I think I would try my older fabrics with this new pattern and see how it turns out – I have done a traditional churn dash with modern fabrics and loved it – now time to reverse it!! Thanks for a chance to win!! ( Its hard to teach an old dog new tricks… but I’m learning) hehe
I love the modern look of this quilt, the blocks are fantastic. I would use
Ellen Luckett Baker, Quilt Blocks, Metro Geometric.
I just love the pattern. I also love the colors used in this pattern, so I would just go with those fabrics and make me the cutest quilt. Thank you.

OMG. Bright solids on a solid (white? black?) background!!!
I think this would be a fun quilt to use up some scraps!

I’ve been collecting a lot of aquas and greens, so my quilt might be very similar to Sarah’s!

This is such a fun take on a well established block! Churn Dash was one of the first blocks I learned to make when I started quilting 3 years ago, so I have a soft spot for it. Thanks for the giveaway.
So cute! I would love to have this pattern! Thanks for the chance.
Oh, my 3 y/o little boy’s name is Dash, but traditional Churn Dash patterns just don’t fit his dirt-and-noise-in-motion personality. I need this pattern!
Thanks!
Love that pattern. I have a set of red and orange batiks that I think would be good for this pattern. But mustn’t start anything new yet! Already too many on the go and not enough time.
Probably in blue and orange for my daughter. Love the pattern.
I would love to use brights on this quilt. I love the liberated quilts I’ve been seeing lately. Thanks

I love this pattern!! I’d use greys with a bold color like yellow or orange.
Thank you…. I would use anything modern, and add a fussy cut print to the center… I would make some wonky churn dash blocks to add to some quilts I am making for the NICU our guild supports…
