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

Suzanne said...

Hello, Amanda Jean. If I had a quarter for all of the wonderful bits of inspiration I saw on your blog and another for every time I had a thought of you or your ideas when I was out in the world or sitting in my craft space, I would be a rich woman. And even if I split the money in the inspiration bank with you, we'd still both be millionaires.

As you know, I live in southwest Indiana and my favorite colors are pink, purple and red--but not necessarily all together. I'm eager to see how many lurkers come out to say hello and from where. Isn't there some fine print that says the winner has to analyze the data? :-)

Merry Day After Christmas!

I don't have a favorite color combination, but everything I do has something bright in it. I gravitate to brights, and polka dots! I made a polka dot quilt (EVERY fabric polkaed) to cure it, but it didn't work! Still love them!
I have a friend's copy of Sunday Morning Quilts, and don't want to give it back. I need my own, out of kindness to her!

Ooh, how fun! I love your book, it's been a great inspiration! I live in Stuttgart, Germany (US military contractor) and my absolute favorite color combo is blue & green...but with 2 daughters, I seem to sew a lot of pink & white, so it gets my vote for second favorite!

I am a Jersey Girl! My favorites have always been cool colors...blues and purples. But, lately I have have been diggin lime green (just painted my bedroom a light lime). I will be making a new quilt for my bed in lime, turquoise, purple and grey....the fabric collection is called City Block by Kitty Yoshida. I will be using your tutorial for the zigzag/chevron pattern. I can't wait to get started! I have your book and love it. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Thanks for your blog...it is the first I discovered about 2 years ago and still remains my favorite. Denise
