O.k., now on to the good stuff. I have been teasing you for the past week about a surprise I have been working on. Well, the suspense is over! I am offering for my very first giveaway a few things for Valentine's Day. I have crocheted an afghan in a soft creamy white and trimmed it out in a sherry colored ribbon in honor of the day of love!! This afghan measures 49 by 43 inches. The ribbon is removable so if you don't like it, simply untie and take it out. Easy peasy!! The second thng I am offering is a set of three heart shaped bowl fillers that I made out of red and white striped ticking. I stitched live, laugh, and love and attached a sprig of sweet annie on each one. These have been coffee stained to look old. And last but not least, I am offering a box of Candleberry tarts in Friendship Tea scent. If you haven't used these tarts before, you are in for a real treat. They smell absolutely divine!!!
Here are the rules:
1. You MUST be a follower of my blog and leave a comment on this post only! If you aren't already following me, jump on board and sign up now!! This giveaway is open to everyone ~ no matter where you live!
2. You MUST post my giveaway on your blog. If you don't do this step, you will be eliminated. So just do it!! (please)
3. There is no number 3!! I will run this giveaway until Tuesday, January 26 and will draw a winner on that day at around 7 p.m. eastern time.
I am super excited about this giveaway. I have been fortunate to win a couple of giveways that others have had and it is so much fun to know that you are getting something in the mail besides bills!
Well, that's it for today. Be sure to enter today and good luck!Until next time. . .
Hugs,
I love it all! Sign me up - I follow and will post your giveaway now!

Hello Donna. I stumbled onto your blog by way of The Pickled Pepper Patch. So glad I did. Your afghan is just beautiful. The stitch you used is perfect. My mother has made hundreds of these over time but I have never taken the time to learn to crochet myself. The bowl fillers are precious. I love ticking material. Did I mention I can't sew either.
ReplyDeleteWell I've enjoyed my visit. Hope to come back when I have more time.
Hugs,
AMY

I absolutely love the goodies that you are giving away. The only thing is, is I don't have my own blog spot. I just like reading other peoples blogs and getting ideas from them. I love all kinds of country things. Especially the afgan. So please don't throw my entry out for this drawing. I am a follower just not a blogger. Thank you. I can post it on facebook though if that is ok with you. Thanks.
