Just in case you've forgotten what Safe Harbor looks like (*wink*), here's a photo of my finished quilt.
The pattern packet includes 24 pages of detailed instructions, photos, illustrations and full size line drawings. I know you'll enjoy making it as much as I did!
It seems like such a long time ago but do you recall when I first announced I was going to publish a pattern for my nautical quilt, I asked for your assistance to come up with a title and that I would give the winner a copy?
The first gal who suggested "Safe Harbor" was Barbara Cordner. Barb, if you read this, please email me with your snail mail address so that I can send one out to you. Thank you so much!
If you'd like to win your very own copy, just leave me a comment at the end of this post and I'll pick a winner on Friday.
Happy stitching!

I love this quilt, and I'd love to win the pattern! And if I don't win on Friday, I'll buy one from your store. Thank you so much for all of your designs that you share with us.
I'd love to win the pattern. This is the first time we haven't lived within 10 miles of the ocean (Atlantic), now we are 40 miles from the Pacific. The Jupiter lighthouse in Florida was a deep barn red color.
Congratulations on your labor of love. "Safe Harbor" is the perfect name for it - spectacular quilt.
Congratulations on your pattern, Kaaren. I have just ordered a copy from your store, but would still love to win. As we live on the coast of Lake Huron with lots of light houses here, I have friends or my quilt guild who would love to have a copy.
Your are always giving us so much through your blog. I always enjoy the patterns and the recipes.
Have a great day.

I would love to win a copy of your beautiful pattern. It could be a great winter project for me. Especially having moved to Texas, I miss the ocean so! What a lovely present this would be!!
Congratations Kaaren! Another wonderful pattern you have offered. This quilt will look great in my home as I live less than 5 miles from the ocean in south Florida.

Congratulations! Your quilt is beautiful. Thank you for the opportunity.
Congrats! I'm so happy for you!!
So beautiful Kaaren! I plan to make this for my husband's study - he has a small collection of lighthouses in there. We have been recently reconciled after a couple of bumpy, or perhaps I should say stormy, years, and I hope this quilt will be like a beacon of light for us, shedding hope on the future.
What a beautiful quilt. Safe Harbor is such an ideal name. Thank you for a chance to win.
'Safe Harbour' has turned out beautifully,who wouldn't want a pattern. Congratulations on your first pattern(published) I love all the FFF that you've given us as well as the BOMs you've done. Thank you so much for your generosity.

When I read your blog I always think of Nova Scotia - I enjoyed the island 26 years ago, my daughter turned one there. We toured the island after attending my brother and sister in laws wedding. We stayed at several bed and breakfasts - her birthday we stayed at the Blue Nose Inn... I loved every minute of it. Your quilt reminds me too of that trip. I do not know if I am an enough accomplished quilter to attempt such a beauty, but if I win, I would certainly give the gal a try. Thank you for all the enjoyment I have received from you. You are truly a giver!

Safe Harbor looks like another winner Kaaren .Would love to win the pattern .I have made Raggedy and Friends almost all of your First Friday Freebies and pardon the pun just sailing along with the Row Quilt. I still have too put both pieces togather and add the border.
Congrats on producing the pattern. I would love to win pattern. Sadly, my father passed away suddenly on July 18 th. this would be a great memorial to him as he served in the US Navy in WW2 and was the anchor/safe harbour of our family.
Safe Harbor is a gorgeous quilt! I love lighthouses and told my husband that I want to make it a mission to visit every lighthouse on the East Coast. I have already visited the Nubble Lighthouse in Maine and hope to soon visit the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse here in North Carolina. Not sure how many there are but I'm gonna try. Thank you! anglanouette at gmail dot com
Such a beautiful quilt and I bet your instructions are wonderful. Thank you for a chance to be a winner.
This is a gorgeous quilt!
I would like to have it in my store..I will email you for details.

Hola, primero felicidades por tu lindo tapiz, el nombre le queda estupendo, y el trabajo lindo de lindo en verdad, un fuerte abrazo desde la tierra de la eterna primavera.
Your quilt is gorgeous. Would live to win the pattern. Would love to make one as I grew up in cape may and met my husband in Atlantic city. Lighthouses and anything nautical is our thing.
Kaaren, the design is wonderful, and the quilting so complements it! I have a thing for lighthouses, so hope I win the pattern...but if not, it will be ordered soon!
As I am moving back closer to ocean, this would be a beautiful quilt to make. Your designs are lovely.
Thanks for giving us the opportunity to win a pattern.

I love the quilt and have since you first showed it. It reminds me of Michigan where we love to camp. You did a great job.
I have watched you lovingly work this quilt from the very beginning, and I'm just as bowled over by the detail and creativity as I was in the beginning. If I win the pattern, I will give up every other craft - knitting, painting, etc. - and do nothing but work on my own quilt, until completion. What a family heirloom it would be...
Love your quilt and so happy to see a pattern available. The title is perfect for it:-) Thanks for the opportunity to win a copy of your pattern.

Kaaren ~ you did a wonderful job on the quilt and congrats on getting it done up in pattern form ~ looks like it would be a lot of work.
I so wish I knew how to quilt ~ maybe in the future ~ please don't include my name in the drawing ~ I feel it should go to someone who truly would use it. Thanks for the generous offer!!!

E' un quilt stupendo!
Complimenti, sembra di sentire il profumo del mare! Un abbraccio
I would love to win a copy of safe harbour. I would be proud to make that quilt, and think of you with every stitch.
I have one question, are the blocks paper pieced?
KATRIN W.
Just gorgeous Kaaren.
Fantastic! "IT" is absolutely stunning. Please include me in the drawing. I would make this quilt.

I live near Annapolis, Maryland and this quilt is a lovely reflection of this area. I would love to win a copy.

I love the staggered flying geese (or should we say "sea-gull") border...something really unique and different.
Best wishes for the continued success you so well deserve...

Wow - what a great pattern! I'd love the chance to win one as it would make a terrific finished quilt for dad who served in the Coast Guard.
It's beautiful and I'd love to win a pattern! :) My name was one of the finalists. :)
I just LOVE lighthouses. :) I have a lighthouse / sea cabin theme for my upstairs. :)
Hi Karen, you know I love this quilt. I'll win the pattern, sure. Thanks for this giveaway
Wow, this is beautiful. I have a dear friend who owns a home on the water in Virginia Beach, I need to make this for her!
I am not even going to enter my name for Fridays drawing, I am going to Etsy to buy it. :=)
Now I hope I can find time to make it before her birthday next July.
I love this quilt. It reminds me so much of my holiday in Nova Scotia a few years back. Thank you for this chance to win the pattern.
I'm trying to post again to see if it will work this time. Judy
Okay, I'm trying to post one last time. I'd really like to be in the running for the pattern. Living so close to the ocean here and loving it, this would be a quilt I'd make, even though it's larger than what I usually do. Thanks, Kaaren! She's a beauty!
Judy

I love your pattern and hope to win it. Congratulations on a job well done.
Love Safe Harbor! Love the variety of blocks and colorway. Thanks for sharing your project with us.
