Giveaway winner and Shabby Rose

I want to thank everyone who participated in the my 100th post giveaway.It was alot of fun seeing all the comments--thank you all very much. And the winner is....Marie Reed! I know Marie Reed from VTT-she has the most wonderful vintage postcards (and right now a great vintage video) so hop on over.



I've been slowly working on my Shabby Rose blocks and I am finally caught up!

I'm planning on using these blocks dispersed through a shabby chic style disappearing 9-patch, so I decided I should switch background fabrics after the first three blocks...but I'm not so happy with the results and may switch back again.

This is a little too light...I tried this fabric because there are curlyques in the fabric that are like the flowers and I thought that echo thing was rather neat but its really doesn't show up.

A little too busy...I could save myself some embroidery though-you can barely see the embroidered flowers for the printed ones!

100th Post Mini Quilt/Pillow Give-away

Its my 100th post! Wow!

To celebrate this milestone in my blogging adventure, I'm having a give-away of this cute, summery mini quilt. Its 16" x 16" and can be used on a wall or table . I've added an extra back with an opening and a cover flap at the top so that you can slip a 14" pillow form in, if you life.

Just leave a comment and you'll be in the drawing on June 30th.

If you mention this give-away on your blog, let me know and I'll put you in the drawing.

I'll automatically enter my "followers" (so if you don't want to take part, please let me know).

Oh, this is fun! I can't tell you how much I'm enjoying blogging and the wonderful friends and community I've met here in the blogosphere.
