Birthday Giveaway Week!








































Thank you for all the wonderful comments about my new blog look!  You ladies are the best!  I've had some questions as to where the blog roll is?  I have put that list at the top under "blogs I love".  So if you click on that button, it will take you to all the blogs I had listed on my sidebar.  You're still there!  If you weren't, I wouldn't be able to reach all your lovely blog homes!


Oh my goodness, it's a big week for me.  As I celebrate my last few days of being in the forties, I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate than to give back to all of you.  You have inspired me, challenged me, comforted me, and made me laugh.  I feel so blessed to have you here, every day.


For today, I'm giving away my entire stash of Christmas fabric.  Yes, you read that right.  Most of it is the fabric I used to create this quilt.  In addition, I'm including a fun book by Piece O'Cake Designs, "Quilt a New Christmas".  Though we aren't doing our monthly "Sewing Christmas" anymore, I wanted to give you the opportunity to get started for next year.


There will be a giveaway each day, Monday through Thursday.  I'm stopping on Thursday since that's my birthday (and hopefully my family will be keeping me busy that day!).  Friday I will announce all the winners.  You have until midnight on Thursday to enter.  For today:

  1. My Mom got my husband and I a dishwasher. We didn't have on in our house and now we do....YAY!!! No more washing all those baby bottles and nipples by hand now. And the fact my husband did the install too. He is so handy. He had to cut 1/2 the cabinets out of one side of my kitchen but it is well worth it.

  2. I am a follower. I think my favorite gift was an antique tea pot that my niece found for me last year when she studied abroad. She gave it to me at Christmas. It was more the thought that she took the time to find me something he knew I loved.

  11. Being a little over 50 - material gifts have come and gone. These days I love the gift of doing. The day after Christmas as part of my Christmas we visited a small town in North Georgia and stayed in a great cabin by a rushing stream. (the only think rushing in that town) Being with family and having time to be alone is one of the best gifts I received this Christmas. I did get a cameo silhouette for using with craft items. 50 is the new 30 -- enjoy.

  45. Happy Birthday Week!!!! Love that you are celebrating all week! I am a follower of your blog. Did you redesign your blog yourself? Looks great.

    We kept our gift giving very low key this year. It had already been a year with many blessings. Perhaps, my favorite gift was from my hubby. He worked on my laptop so that I could print directly from it:) It was actually a computer setting and not a wrapped gift, but one I enjoy each day.

    Make sure to eat lots of cake!!

  101. Happy birthday! I hope that this year is the best year yet for you!!!! My favorite Christmas (actually after Christmas)gift was an upright freezer. Being celiac (gluten intolerant), I cook all our meals from scratch. The freezer allows me to cook large batches on the weekends and freeze portions so during the week, I pull something out of the freezer and voila! I guess it's like the equilivant to someelse's fast food drive thru....minus the lineup of cars :) I am a follower, just not through the drive-thru!

    My fave gift was a partial set of dishes from the 50's that my daughter got me. I so am into dishes! These are Kathie Winkle designed ones...I have another partial set of a different pattern, but I love the retro look. AND, you wouldn't believe how little they are compared to the monster plates and bowls of the new dishes...portion size is much smaller than we think if we go by dish size!

    Oh and happy Bday today! I hit that big 50 with in the last year myself....I'm falling apart piece by piece now...:P
