Give Me A Break...

Oh wait...I think I just took one...(from my blog, that is)!



Out of the 5 members in our family we almost have a birthday a month from December through May (maybe we should have one more baby to fill up the February slot...um, nope)...and let's not forget Baby Jesus' big birthday day right in the mix of all that!  So by the middle of April I'm pretty much just done with thinking.  Not to mention the end of the schoolyear/beginning of summer craziness that makes me feel like I'm running a marathon in flip-flops.  I know that all of you mama's out there feel me on that one!  With all that said, don't mind me and all my update posts these next few days/weeks (whenever I get to them)!  So let the updating begin...




Here a little "Work in Progress" and finished product I just fell in love with!

Doesn't my Bliss pincushion by Warm n' Fuzzies look lovely with the Strawberry Fields fabric?

And after lots of cutting, sewing and snipping here the finished rag quilt ready to go:

That's all for now folks...

A Fun Little Giveaway!!

Do you ever see something that is so cute that you just have to have but you can't decide which design or color you like best so after much thought and consideration, (like a whole 2 minutes worth) you just buy them all?  Normally I don't have the luxury of saying "I'll take 'em all!" but when that item doesn't cost "an arm and a leg", it does make it a little easier.  I found these sewing pins that seem to only be sold in the UK and I couldn't choose my favorite so I bought one set of each.  Hey, if they're going to take a ride across The Pond, you might as well get all of them, right? (Yes, that was one of the many excuses I made for buying them all!) 

 Aren't they lovely?

Being that 30 pins come in a set and I don't think I will ever need 150 sewing pins at one time, I thought this would be a great little Giveaway for my blogger friends.  Plus, I wanted to give each of you the chance to have the set that would have made it much easier for me...one of each design in each color.  In other words, you can't find this set assembled in stores...clever, eh? 

This one could be yours! :-)

I know it's something little but after my ordeal of trying to decide, I thought I'd make it much easier for one of you to just have 'em all! 

You have up to 3 ways you can enter (make sure to leave a separate comment for each entry)~

1. Leave a comment telling me which design and color of the sewing pins is your favorite of the collection.

2. Follow my blog.

3. Blog or Twitter about the giveaway.

The winner will be picked by random selection via Random.org on Wednesday, July 14th @ 9pm PST!

Good Luck! :-)
