First Blog-iversary Giveaway!!!

GIVEAWAY CLOSED!

A couple days ago marked one year since my first crafty blog post ever. I missed celebrating with all of you on the actual day for several reasons. The main reasons are that I finished 2 summer school classes the day before, then reported to jury duty and was trying to figure out what to do for Mr. Crafty's birthday {which was yesterday}. I am happy to report that in the past week, I  have read TWO non-school books. But not much crafty to report. Oh, I did make these delicious snickerdoodle cupcakes for Mr. Crafty...

By the end of this month I hope to have a pattern/tutorial for this quilt... saying it out loud will make me do it, right?

Anyway, now to the giveaway. I thought about this over the past couple months. What did I really want to share with all of you? When I saw the Dream On line by Urban Chiks for Moda, I knew I wanted to give some Dream On away... and then I got it in my home and started thinking I might keep it. I love the vintage sheet-ish feel to it and I am a floral fan but more the 60's & 70's florals than your traditional florals.But I am not keeping it, I am giving it away to some lucky reader!

Here's what you get: Uptown Girl pattern by Carolina Patchworks and three charm packs of Dream On

GIVEAWAY CLOSED!

My favorite part of summer is my garden. Soothes my soul to be digging in the dirt & pulling those weeds. Of course the sun has to be out. Hot, hot, hot!

One of my favorite parts of summer is the flower garden

Nancy Sue said...

Whew! I'm tired just reading about how busy you've been...the summer classes, jury duty etc!! Talk about busy!!
My favorite part about summer is the shade. After living in SC and FL for several years, I hate being in the sun. Weird, I know. Give me a hammock, shade, a breeze, and needle and thread, or a good book, and I'm good to go :)

My favorite part about summer is the garden. Most of my sewing takes place in the wintertime, but during the summer I LOVE to be out in the garden and my favorite nights are those when everything on my supper table is something I grew with my own two hands.

Thanks for the awesome giveaway!

My favorite part of summer is when my kids go back to school! LOL! No, not really.... I love sitting on the back porch around the fire pit in Uggs and a hoodie roasting marshmellows, hangin'out with hubby, enjoying my kids and petting the dogs. A very relaxing way to end the day. I love it!!

Nathalie said...

The only thing I like about the summer is that I don't have to get up at 5 in the morning to get ready for school. Other than that, it's way toooo hot (102 today and going on three weeks of over 100 degree weather!!)
