Have you missed me? It's been almost two weeks since my last post! CRA-ZEEEEEEEE! I have been sewing here and there, and also managed to get away for a few days (again - so spoilt!) over our long weekend last week. But I've thought about blogging every. single. day. Why? Well........
THIS IS MY 500TH POST!!!
How amaze-balls is that? I held off posting because I wanted to make it all exciting and have something fabulous to give-away and all that, but I've been so freakin busy that I haven't had the time to organise anything! So today, I'm just biting the bullet!
I want to thank each and every one of you for popping in, having a look around and most importantly - encouraging me and leaving your fabulous comments! I PROMISE I read each and every one of them! I have been incredibly slack of late in replying, but please know I AM reading them!
This blog started off quite a few years ago, with mostly personal posts about life in general - and then the quilting bug bit and well....... You know how the rest of the story goes!
So what can I give away? I have a tonne of fabric in my sewing room. I have lots of Aurifil thread. Plenty of notions and a couple of books. Heck - I even have some lonely orphan quilt blocks! How about a little old mixed parcel?
I will have ONE International winner and ONE local (Australian) winner!
