Winner of the Pinwheel Quilt Giveaway


Thank you to so many new followers who helped me pass my goal of 53 followers in honor of my mother who passed away on July 17 2010. One of her favorite quilting designs was the pinwheel.

She loved Amish History, literature and books. Her favorite authors were Beverly Lewis,Wanda Brunstetter, Amy Clipston, Cindy Woodsmall etc. She was very proud of my quilting business and the leap of faith I took to become a stay at home mother so I could be active in our children's lives, knowing that I could make some side money by using my talents to sew for others.

The very last thing I made her was the above bag. We conversed on facebook and email daily. We talked on the phone often. She was able to see the bag via pictures but it arrived the day before she passed away. She had already been admitted into the hospital. So she never held it in her hands, sometimes that makes me sad. I am thankful for technology and that she KNEW of this precious gift she had desired and of my craftsmanship in it. I thank you for entering my quilt giveaway in her honor.

Winner is Number 15 Billie- I will contact you please watch for your email

Giveaway Upon Reaching 53 Followers*** CLOSED

****Giveaway is now closed*** Congrats to Billie #15 ***Chosen via Random.Org

As 2011 approached I really want to host some giveaways on my blog, the first was for kitchen handmade items. I will admit I was hoping my kitchen goodies giveaway would have more interest. It will end in a couple weeks but so far there are not very many entries. I realize it all takes time of course to have followers, which I think is the cause of lack of entries- No Followers. I think of all the Blogs out there and how hard it is to get stumbled upon so I thought I would try and host a giveaway to promote my blog with a popular item.

I decided when I reach 53 followers
(in honor of my mom's age when she passed away in July of 2010)
I would host my own giveaway a Pinwheel quilt made by me-
it will be slightly larger than a baby quilt- about 40 by 50.
I will make your quilt with the same floral prints as above- it can then have your choice of border fabric in colors such as blue, pink, purple, red etc..
So spread the word.
This quilt is nearly custom just for you the winner..
I will use Random.org to select the winner. This is for U.S. entries only.
