And the winner is...

Before I announce the winner I want to show you what I'm sending out...


The quilt came out so cute. It is hard to give it away but I enjoy making things to give away, it is rewarding. The small bag is one that I made last year, the applique is wool and it has a small rusty bell on the pull. There is also some crocheted coasters. I make these out of selvages (I do rugs too). The last item is a finger pin cushion. I made a lot of these a few years ago for some guild members and have several left over. They are made with the lid from a 20 oz. plastic soda pop bottle. I thank every one that checked out my blog and entered the drawing. I have enjoyed having this blog and finding others to inspire me. Now on to the important stuff. The drawing!




I printed out and folded all the little slips of paper and put them in a bowl
(for lack of something prettier).




Mixed them all up (excuse the dryness of the hands and arm, how gross, this is what happens in winter time). It sure was fun mixing all these up. Then....the winner is!






harts4Him. Congratulations, my friend! I will send you an email letting you know you have won and so I can get the prize to you as soon as possible. Thanks again for everyone that participated. This was so much fun, I will have to think of a reason to do another one.

100th Post Give Away


Here is a peek at what the 100th post winner will be receiving. There will be other things to be given away with this but just thought I would give you a look see (check out post below for details).

Last night my daughter was over at my house to visit. It was getting late and we were acting silly. She decided to start coming up with names for Quilt Movies. After a while my son got into the act too. We laughed so hard at some of these. I thought I would share them with you. (I apologize now if these offend anyone but we thought they were funny).

The Ruler of the World
Sewing Machine Smackdown
The Case of the Scissor Snatchers
The Iron Ma'am
The Fabric Hunter
Jackie the Ripper
Eye of the Needle
One Woman's chronicle to no longer be a Fat Quarter
The Texas Rotary Massacre
Thready Kruger...the Comedy...He keeps you in Stitches
Evelyn Scissor Hands
Measuring Tape Strangler
Mortal Kombatting...the day the tension was off
The Needler: needle me this...
Spiderman 4: Fusible Webbing

Would you go see any of these movies? HA! Anyway, that is what you get when it's late and you start acting silly.

Quilt til your arm falls off...

Past the 100 mark!

I just noticed that yesterday was my 100th post! How could that have slipped by without me noticing? I never thought I would make it because sometimes it is so hard to figure out what to post about, but it's here and I would like to do something special. Others have done give aways and I think that sounds like a good idea.
Leave me a comment and mention you want to be included in the 100 post give away. On Saturday I will put the names in a basket and pick one winner. At this time I'm not sure what I will be giving away but I will put a package together, maybe some pieced blocks or red work and a bar of felted soap and... I'll figure the rest later. So leave your comments today until Saturday morning. Make sure when you leave a comment that I have an email I can reach you by if you win. Good luck!

Update: Forgot to mention, drawing is limited to the United States.
