Giveaway Time!

One of the best things about blogging is making friends with people and yet never meeting or even talking on the phone. I've been priviledged to become friends with Barbara from
Snip It Up
and love her shabby chic, raq quilting Etsy store.

Let me show you around her shop.

For most of us, spring can't get here fast enough. Brand new to her shop, this colorful rag quilt with a variety of colors make this a perfect gift or addition to your home.
 

Another new addition, this rag quilt has an appliqued blue bird, and it is gorgeous.

Doesn't this just make you happy and think spring?

 

I love, love, love her potholders and these pair of potholders would make a perfect 

Valentine's gift for someone or even yourself!

 

 

Maybe you're more interested in a handmade tablecloth patchwork quilt.

Such a beautiful piece of workmanship.

 

 

There's a variety of kitchen towels available, aren't

these birdies super cute?

 

 

Now for the fun part, Barbara is giving away this kitchen towel vintage gift set to one lucky person!

Red is one of my favorite colors and I was immediately drawn to the hand stitched cherries.

1) leave a comment on this post - one entry

2) click over to Snip It Up and add her shop to your favorites - one entry.

Giveaway - Randall Reindeer

As I shared yesterday, I am in love with Elf on a Shelf.

 

Last year right after Christmas I was checking out the Christmas clearance isle
at our local grocery store and I came across Randall Reindeer.

It's the same concept as the popular Elf on a Shelf and your kids will love this new tradition.

 

 

One winner will win this cute 9" plush Randall Reindeer plush, hardcover book and notecards.

 



 

 

I'm going to make this giveaway really easy.

 



 

All you have to do is leave a comment.

 

Unfortunately this is only for the US and I'll announce the winner Nov 1st.

Sandie at Crazy'bout  Quilts

Sandie has two blogs and as I was checking out her blog, Circle of Friends 2012 Branson!
I found this great poem and wanted to share it with you...

MY WIFE, THE QUILTER

She learned to quilt on Monday.
Her stitches were very fine.
She forgot to thaw out dinner,
So we went out to dine.

She quilted miniatures Tuesday.
She says they are a must!
They really were quite lovely,
But she forgot to dust.

On Wednesday, it was a sampler.
She says the stipplin's fun.
What highlights! Oh what shadows!
But the laundry wasn't done.

Her charm quilt was on Thursday,
Green patches, blue and red.
I guess she really was engrossed;
She never made the bed.

It was wallhangings on Friday,
In colors she adores,
But she never seem to notice
The crumbs on all the floors.

I found a maid on Saturday!
My week is now complete.
My wife can quilt the hours away;
The house will still be neat.

Well, it's already Sunday.
I think I'm about to wilt.
I cursed, I raved, I ranted --
The MAID has learned to Quilt!!
