Milestones Giveaway

**GIVEAWAY NOW CLOSED**

I actually had a post concocted in my head for yesterday so I could bring Triple "T" Tuesdays back, then I looked at my blog stats and realized that my next post had to be special. Then I missed it entirely because I had some meetings and the day completely got away from me. (Yes, I'm going back to work. So sad.) But why is it special you might ask? Well, this actually marks my 300th post! I missed my 2nd Blogoversary this year, but I didn't want to miss this milestone. But that's not all, my friends. Very recently I also achieved another milestone and reached 500 readers on Google Reader. I am shocked, quite frankly. Thanks guys, I love each and every one of you. Lastly, my birthday is coming up at the end of the week so there's one more reason to celebrate. So in honor of all three I'm having a little giveaway because who doesn't love fabric?

I went through my stash and pulled a sweet little stack of Kona solids for one luck person. Most of them are fat quarters, though one or two might be a little bigger or slightly smaller. I pulled 11 different fabrics so that's over 2 yards of Kona. Who doesn't like that? It might be my birthday but you're getting the present!

What do you have to do to enter? It's easy. Just leave me a comment. That's it. And if you'd like to tell me what you'd like to see more (or less) of on my blog I'd love it. I'm always trying to make this blog better so getting feed back from you is the best. I'll keep the giveaway open until Monday, May 7th. Only one entry per person. And if you're a "No Reply" commenter make sure I have a way to get in touch with you. Good Luck! And thanks to all of my wonderful followers!

  51. Congratuations! I always love seeing projects but I really love to hear more about fabric selections and behind the scenes stuff like organisation.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Don't have too many solids myself. Would be a nice addition to my stash! Thanks! And congrats on the milestones.

    ReplyDelete
  53. I actually have very few (as in 2) solids in my stash so these items would put a little more variety in my sewing. I love the fact that many of your quilts are scrappy, or at least don't seem to require several yards of each fabric to complete. I have a large collection of scraps (graciously given to me by others), but don't have much of any one fabric. I love scrappy type quilts. As another poster said, any organizational help would also be appreciated. I need to learn how to put 50 pounds of "stuff" in a 5 pound bag!

  55. Happy Everything! I hope your individual celebrations are super great! If I had to think of something I'd love to see more of it's "how to/tutorial" posts the most. Thanks so much!
