and the winner is....

Hurrah for Sheri over at Northern Quilter! I used random.org to help chose the winner, and her number was selected. Now all i need is your snail mail Sheri, and these goodies will be on their way to your home :) Thank you for all of the comments and congrats i received for my 200th post! Ive made many wonderful friends thru blogland, and i hope to meet many more in the future.

200th Post Giveaway...on my 201st post! :)

Well, here it is...as promised...or a few days late, but still, here it is...my first giveaway for my 200th post! Jordyn wanted to show off the goodies for the photo...she looks pretty happy for a girl with chicken pox. Anyways, i purchased these items about 2 years ago, and they've never been used...brand new. They are really cool, but i guess i decided that they weren't really for me...too complicated, and i like things simple :) I thought they deserved a better home...where they will be used and enjoyed. Included in the giveaway...the quilt book Doubledipity by Sara Nephew, the Super 60 acrylic template (that is used in the book), and the triangle pattern (also used in the book) and included with the pattern Northern Lights Quilt. Anyways, if you are interested in winning this giveaway, please leave me a comment on this post and i will check back in a week to draw a winner.
On another quilt note, i received my I-spy fabrics from a swap on about.com. 80 fun fabrics to include in my next I-spy quilt...cant wait to sort thru them all!

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend...and thank you for all the kind words and tips for my daughters chicken pox!

200th Post....Hurrah!

So apparently books werent the only things that jordyn checked out at the library a few weeks ago...thats right, my kid has chicken pox! I must admit, im glad she is getting it out of the way now...chicken pox on an adult can be very nasty. Of course, she had the shot, but i guess it didnt take :) Having the shot did make her case rather mild though...just the ones you see on her back...several on the backs of her knees...some on the neck and groin, but thats about it. It could have been a lot worse. So if anyone wants to get it over with...bring your kid on over to play :) (im reminded of a certain south park episode) hehehehe
Also, i wanted to share the extent of jordyns infatuation with Nightmare Before Christmas...check out her drawing of Jack Skellington.....

I was also planning to post my give-away for my 200th post, but as its late, im tired, and havent photographed it yet, youll just have to check back tomorrow on my 201st post for the info :)
Hope you all have a fabulous weekend!!!
