a giveaway

Because cleaning my dining room led to this:

I'm giving away this, a flat rate box of home decor weight fabric


and a flat rate envelope full of scraps




just leave a comment to be entered. You can leave your preference for which you'd like to receive, or just say "both." I'll pick two winners on Friday.


Hope you're all having fun preparing for Christmas. Things are a little chaotic here. Isaiah is sick, which means I haven't been able to visit John in a few days. And John is at his lowest point right now, at the most risk for infection. Perfect timing, right? God must really have a sense of humor. Anyway, I'm hoping to visit John today and I think Isaiah is getting better. Hopefully there will be some cookie making later. That just might be what the doctor ordered.

63 comments:

  1. Merry Christmas and tell John a bunch of strangers have him in their thoughts.

    On a side note - I would love some stuff...enter me in!

  2. Thinking of John (((gentle hugs to you all)). Get well soon Isaiah. And I would love either give away - new to patchwork / quilting so am always collecting fabric !

    ReplyDelete
  3. Wow, those fabrics look great. Thanks and Merry Christmas!

    ReplyDelete
  4. I would love to win either of the packages! Fabric is always welcomed here!

    Your family is in our thoughts. We hope that things start to turn around soon.

  5. Your sewing room looks an awful lot like mine. Except I'm too packrat-ish to actually get rid of anything! And I go seeking more, uh, by entering giveaways on the internet. :-) I like both sets of scraps -- thanks for the chance to win! My email is bookgeekgirl at gmail dot com.

  14. I would love either of these, so please enter me for both drawings! Glad to hear that you are all doing well, despite some sickness! Hope things start looking up soon!

  15. I suppose someone has to be first, even if number 1 isn't 'randomized' that often lol!! But, I must say, that since I am a quilter, especially applique, which enables me to use lots of little scraps, I would be all over the envelope full of scraps:) Though the home dec ones look yummy too!

    ReplyDelete
  16. Either one would be awesome! My living room is currently covered with fabric and scraps so I feel you. But my roommate had never complained so I'm not about to worry.

    Thank you for hosting this great giveaway. Happy Holidays!

  22. i need to do the same thing to my sewing spot. as soon as the holiday stuff is done, i'm cleaning up shop. i'd take both packages.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Those look like some great fabrics. I'll say I'm interested in both.

    I'm glad to hear the John received his bone marrow transplant and I'll be sure to keep him in my prayers. I'm sure it can't be fun for him right now. Will he be in the hospital over Christmas?

  24. Pick me! Pick me! I'd be happy to take EITHER off of your hands but I'd probably choose the decor-weight-anything I can do to help you out!
    Thanks for the giveaway!

  32. "both" -Hope he gets better...my question is...how can you coordinate a giveaway and have a sick fellow at the same time. My world usually comes to a screeching halt when someone is down. Cookies? You're so brave.

  33. What a great giveaway, that's a good idea for cleaning up the craft area. It sure would make it a lot more fun. I will have to keep that in mind the next time I clean up ;o)
    I hope everyone feels better and thank you for doing the giveaway.
    Either parcel would be great.
