It's been a bit crazy around here for the last couple of weeks. We're knee deep in getting issue 5 of Fibre&Stitch ready for publication and I've got a bunch of new projects on the worktable that I'll hopefully have pictures of to share with you soon. In the meantime I wanted to do 2 things:
First: I wanted to say thank you to the fellow bloggers who have given me these two awards: Sweet Mango, Judy Hartman and Lisa Quilts. Thank you ladies, I am truly flattered and honored to receive them.
And second: Give a huge thank you to all of you who stop by my blog to see what I'm up to. I really do appreciate your stopping by and I'm always grateful for your comments. It would be very difficult for me to choose just a few of you to pass this award along to so I'm going to do something a little different. I'm going to do a giveaway to celebrate the honor of having been given these awards. All you need to do is leave me a comment on this post and I'll put your name in for a draw. For every 25 comments that I receive I'll choose a name and that person will win their choice of a free 4 issue subscription to Fibre&Stitch or their choice of any journal from my etsy shop. So leave me a comment on which one you'd prefer to win and I'll put your name in the hat! How's that sound?
the journals are beautiful!

Wow! This is a very generous offer! It's also a very difficult choice! Your work is gorgeous and I would love to own one of your beautiful journals! A subscription would also be tremendous! My sister is taking one of your on line workshops is and learning so much from you so I know I would learn a lot from your zine. Decisions, decisions. I guess I would have to chose a journal!
warm regards
