I am feeling so much love from so many different places this Valentines Day I wanted to share some of it.
So after my Valentine Massage this morning (thank you Jon) I came right to the studio and made this Heart of Scraps Potholder from some of the left over shibori fabric. And I’m giving it away. Let’s see, it’s about 12:30 now so leave a comment on my blog, if you’d like a chance to win this potholder, and at 12:30 tomorrow (Friday) I’ll announce the winner, which I’ll pick at random. Wishing you all a love filled day.
Very pretty
Nice
I would love to win the potholder. The love shines right out of the heart. I would give it to my daughter in Maine who I only see usually once a year. I know she would hang it on the wall for art and then every time she looks at it, she would think of me.
I find the winters are long when no family is near and children are scattered…so I come to your site and see the beautiful materials and they seem like flowers in an otherwise colorless world.
Thank you, Maria, for sharing such beautiful art work.
Happy Heart Day, Maria!!! Thanks so much for sharing all your gifts with us!!
Happy Valentine’s Day, Maria! I love your work. It’s Beautiful! Thank you for sharing your talents with the rest of the world.
Would love to win the heart potholder. I’m glad you are both busy and finding a way to manage being so busy!
Happy Valentine’s Day Maria and Jon:-) I would love to win this beautiful piece. When I read your blog about the shibori quilt I thought you might use the scraps for a heart:-)
Pick me, pick me! Your work is fab and your association with Bedlam Farm perfect! We city folk need your rural inspiration. Susan Overton, New Haven CT
I’m happy you and Jon found each other. You seem like the perfect match. Happy Valentine’s Day!
Happy Valentines Day Maria, today is my son’s birthday so it is my happiest memory and one of my very favorite days. I love the recent quilts you have made, they are just so marvelous. Happy Day, thanks, Susie
Both you and Jon and all the animals in between define love. To me, that is the real story of Bedlam Farm and Full moon – love.
I love to win your heart!
You are so good for Jon! You are such a hard worker and make such neat items. I love viewing your website and also Jon’s. Love the animals.
Happy Sweetheart Day to you!
I love your heart potholders Maria ~ and have a beautiful one near my stove that is used often! This is a lovely gift and while I would love to win this, I hope you will choose someone who does not yet have one of your beautiful creations. Happy valentine’s day!

Happy Valentines Day…..beautiful potholder!
Love it.
So creative….wish I could whip things up that fast.
Hope your Valentines Day is special.
I would love to win the gorgeous potholder for my niece, Jennifer. She would love it! The orange is just the color of her kitchen! Also, Maria, I want to thank you for telling us about how you create the quilts, potholders, and pillows. I really enjoy reading about the “creative process” and the personal story of each piece. You have such a generous spirit to share with all of us!
Hi Maria,
I have followed Jon’s blog from the beginning and then yours.
I would treasure this potholder made with so much love.
I’m sure this beautiful potholder will find the right person. Might even be me 🙂
Thank you for doing this giveaway. I wish you and Jon a beautiful Valentine’s!
I would love to win the beautiful pot holder.
Happy Valentines Day, Maria! I love your work and so enjoy the evolution of your work! I really like your streaming pieces but must say that the impact you can create from more *negative space* is growing on me- they are wonderful….with empty space creating things out of our very own imagination. I would cherish one of your potholders!
Hugs from California
Susan
