1000th Post Fabric and Quilt Pattern Giveaway!

The day has finally come. It's hard to believe I've been blogging for ten and a half years, five hundred and fifty three weeks to be exact. I've had long absences in that time too. As it is, it averages just over one and a half blog posts per week. After I noticed my post count was getting close to 1000, I started looking at my post stats and found quite a few drafts that I had completely forgotten about. Some were accidental saves and had nothing in them, but quite a few just needed a little spellcheck and photos. Check your draft folder if you haven't looked at it in awhile; there may be something interesting there that you thought you already posted.

Now for the drawing. I am giving away a kit that contains a Windham pattern and Windham fabrics. No, it isn't donated by them. It was gifted to me by a friend and now I am regifting to one of you. Finished size of the quilt is 54-1/2 inches x 71-1/2 inches. The colors are pretty teals, burgandies, and browns. See the picture below.

Details for the drawing:
  • The drawing is open to anyone in the U.S. I'm sorry I can't mail it to other countries, but that darn postage is just too high outside the U.S.
  • To enter, make a comment on this post and make sure your settings aren't set to no-reply. I need to be able to notify the winner by email.
  • The drawing will be Monday at noon, Pacific Daylight Time, and then comments to this post will be closed.
That's it. Easy peasy.

I am going to use the random name picker from miniwebtool.com. It will be a first for me, but it looks easy. Good luck!





Postscript:
Now that I have moved sewing and quilting posts to this new blog, this is no longer my 1000th post. So, someday, there might be another 1000th post giveaway.

    I found your blog about four months ago. If I remember correctly, I was looking for an answer to a quilting question. However . . . in the process I found Buddy! Forget the quilting, I was in love (still am)! He is the most amazing creature. Thank you for finally realizing he was meant to travel the road of life with you. Oh, I still look through your quilting and restoration ideas, BUT FIRST I always dig through your posts for the latest Buddy.

  9. Well I'm sneaking in at the last minute. Unless you are on the west coast and it's not that close time-wise. Congratulations on blogging for 10 years plus. It's a challenge to continue week after week. Thanks for the opportunity to win your kit.

    1. I didn't even think about the time zones. I guess I should have specified Pacific Time so the late risers on that end of the U.S. have a chance. Californians seem to be an energetic sort though, they probably get up at sunrise, jog, bike, or go surfing before breakfast, and then off to work. ;) But thanks for your comment, and I will make it Pacific Time.
