Pot holders, coasters, giveaway...oh my

Finally. I'm back in this space. I had originally planned on posting mid-day, but this has just been one of those days. I won't bore you with the details, but as an example, I dropped off middle daughter to work out, then dropped off littlest at a babysitting job, finally got home, sat down, and then got a call from middle that she was ready to be picked up. I had just barely touched behind to chair when the call came.
Anyway, I'm here and I'm ready to show off my newest pattern and giveaway fabric. So, put your behinds in chairs(not a requirement, just a suggestion) and we'll get started.
First off, check out the cute, little promo image I made for the pattern.
I made each letter a different color and I'm not computer savy enough to do that in one fell swoop, so I had to do it one.letter.at.a.time.
Did I mention that this pattern actually teaches you how to make the template piece yourself, using your very own plate that is probably sitting in you cupboard anxiously awaiting some purpose other than holding your strudel? 
Did I also mention that this pattern includes information about exactly which Moda Cross Weave cottons I used to make the sample color wheels?
Did I mention that I'm giving away 2 copies of this pattern to one of you lucky and potentially seated people?
And...and... did I mention that Wendy over at The Fabric Quarter is giving this away?
So, if you'd like a chance to win, sit right down and leave a comment.
I have to go. I'm betting I need to drive/pick-up somebody.

just stumbled on your website looking for instructions on making a quilted pillow. (I made my first ever quilt block last night!) You have so many fun ideas, I hope I can find some good ones for a beginner :)

I love the pattern and the solids you've chosen! Just gorgeous. I do not, however, love having to drive all.day.long to take children where they need to be. I'm a teacher and in the summer we had to institute a one trip a day policy with the kids because I was going to lose my head! We also live in a town where they *can* bike or take the bus just about anywhere they want to. They just don't often want to.
