Less Blogging this Week

I am very busy getting ready for a special weekend, and that includes sewing.  I will post my progress next week.

I hope you all have a great holiday weekend!

We Have a Winner!

I used a human random number generator to determine the winner of the prize package.  I asked someone in my house to pick a number from one to seven, and the number five was selected.

I have emailed Sheila to get her mailing address, and my email message has not bounced yet.  You can see that I follow her blog, and I always like to see what she's sewn!

I hope you all had a great weekend and did something nice for your dads.

About 15 hours to enter the drawing!

Around Noon on Sunday, June 19, 2011, US east coast time, I will do the drawing for these awesome handcrafted soaps:

Drawing Extended for Awesome Soap!

I am extending the drawing for the awesome soap until next weekend.  Go to this message and click the comment link so you can comment to enter the drawing.

All entries received by Saturday, June 18, will be entered into the drawing on Sunday, June 19.

Please share this link with your friends.

I think the winner will be very pleased upon receiving the prize package.  These are very clean soaps (no pun intended), with natural ingredients, handcrafted in Florida by this local shop.

Blogger Returns with Drawing for a Prize!

I am sorry I haven't posted lately.  We sold a house, bought a house, and moved in September and October last year.  That's my excuse, and I'm sticking to it!  Meanwhile, my sewing mojo ran away in the Winter and came back in the Spring.

Eating healthy food is always a priority with us, and we started a garden in the Spring.  Making smoothies and fruit slushes has been an on-again-off-again thing, and we recently got back to making green smoothies.

I promise to post more often on my blog.  I also plan to post some sewing tutorials occasionally.

I want to celebrate my 100th blog post by giving away some awesome soap that we buy locally.  Here's a link to the creator of these lovely soaps.  Here is a picture of the prize soap collection, which I selected just for my readers:

 Here's how to enter in the drawing for these awesome soaps:

1. Tell me in a comment on my blog that you want to enter in the drawing (only USA destinations please).
2. Include your email address in your comment, and please write it the way you say it.  Use the words "at" and "dot" instead of the symbols if you want your entry to be included in the drawing.
3. One entry per email address with the following exception:
4. Answer these questions to get one additional entry per email address:

• Have you ever used a sewing machine?
• What was the last thing you sewed or mended using a sewing machine?
• What is your current sewing skill level?

The drawing will be done by random number generator at Noon on Sunday, June 19, 2011 (East coast of USA), so enter by Saturday, June 18.

Good luck!
