You can find a list of participating blogs here beginning Friday afternoon. Now for my giveaway! What is one of the most recognized signs of spring? Well, here it is the Robin. I have been seeing them for a couple of weeks now. I love how God sends us these little signs reminding us that spring is on it's way. Everything outside sings of new life. My poor little daffodils have been blooming off and on all winter thanks to warm snaps this winter. A few days ago, we had a couple of other visitors stop by too. They actually come every year about this time and stay only a few hours, but they seem to enjoy their stay.
When I saw Kathy Schmitz's new line for Moda, Round Robin, I knew it would be the perfect giveaway to chase away the winter blues!
To enter my giveaway and have a chance to win this layer cake... all you have to do is leave a comment telling me about a non quilting project you hope to accomplish this spring! Not spring where you are or you have no projects in mind....share a favorite Easter dessert that your family loves! I'll choose a winner on Friday, March 15. Good luck and have fun hopping! I will ship internationally!
Debbie

Thanks for being in this fun blog hop and thanks for the great giveaway. We just moved into this farm house 14 months ago and I would like to put up a white picket fence and plant flowers in front of it.
ReplyDeleteI just bought new fabric to make a couple different bunny hats for my 1 yr old Granddaughter and also to make her some pants as well. Her Momma just bought some beautifully bright summer fabrics last night and when they came home she handed those to me. She's thinking little dresses or summer outfits would be cute. I think those would make adorable reversible tops with the rounded back and ruffle lace around the bottom and up the back rounded area along with matching summer hats would be cute.
ReplyDeleteThis month, we're making a permanent move to our lake house so I'm looking forward to actually having shrubs and flower beds. Since we'll be there full time, I can make sure everything has a little TLC and plenty of water during our hot Oklahoma summers. My new sewing studio is larger than my current one and has a wonderful view of what I hope will be a beautiful garden. Thanks for the giveaway!
