1000!

Hello there! Merry Christmas to you! :)

I can hardly believe it, but this is my 1000th post! That's a whole lot of writing! And quilting! It's the perfect time to say THANK YOU to you, my readers. I appreciate you reading, commenting and encouraging me as I quilt my little heart out. :) Comments are my blogging fuel, you could say, and your encouragement means so much. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!

To celebrate, I've gathered a few of my favorite things to give away to one lucky reader. International entries welcome.
Some of my favorite things include....POLKA DOTS! Of course!
(notice, not a purple one in sight ;) )
Also, a full yard of black and white striped fabric (perfect for binding), a hand made scrappy pin cushion (made from the trimmings of this purse), 2 spools of Connecting Threads Essential Cotton Thread in cream and grey, a pack of self threading needles (perfect for burying knots), a pack of Clover wonder clips, and a signed copy of Sunday Morning Quilts. Plus, I'll throw in a customized thread catcher in your favorite color combination.

If you would like to win this package of my favorite things, please leave me ONE comment in this post. In your comment please state where you live and what your favorite color/color combination is. I'll pick the winner sometime on Friday, December 28.

Happy Christmas to you!
xoxo
Amanda Jean

Merry Christmas, Amanda Jean - hope you had a good one! I live in Hailey, Idaho, which is a stone's thrown down the valley from the Sun Valley ski resort. We live for snow, and with snow comes....quilting! Right now my favorite combo is aqua and purple. Weird, but true! I already have this book, but not signed! If I won, I'd keep your copy and give the other to a good quilting friend.

Nice giveaway! I am in Austin, TX and I love Purple with pretty much anything but I also just love color in general!

Wow! What a lot of comments. You realy hit the jackpot with this post. Congrats on your 1000 post. I live on a farm on the shores of Lake Kariba, Zambia, Africa. The internet is my only contact with quilters. My favourite color scheme (looking at what I've done so far) is black and white. But, being so far from everything, I have to work with what I can get. Thanks for this opportunity. (alizavdw@gmail.com)
