Did YOU Win?
(sorry I'm late)

Who stole Monday - wow - it was a busy day! I spent a few hours taking down and putting Christmas away (yes, finally); I went grocery shopping (the pantry & freezer were bare); I boned two rotisserie chickens so I can make Tortilla Soup (YUM) later this week; met with a client (need to earn some money); quilted the giveaway table topper (struggled with the bobbin tension - huge sigh); trimmed it and sewed the binding to the front (take a close look you can see my binding clips - will finish that this morning); took a nap (I'd been up since 4:00 am); had a sandwiches for dinner (quick & easy) and finally dropped into my chair to watch reruns on TV and sew binding down-------WHEW!

I know, I know you don't want to hear about my day! LOL You want to know whether or not you won my "Gratitude & Generosity Challenge-#1".

Did YOU win??? Thank you so much for sharing how blogging has impacted your life - so many new bloggers stopped by - I hope you'll stop by again!

Drumroll please......................................... without further ado........................the envelope please..................LOL!

Deb from Mountain Musings you're the winner
(please send me an e-mail with your mailing address)



I found some cute fabric in my stash to use for the backing (I have enough for both quilts - woohoo). I hope the winner likes it. :-)



Stay tuned there will be another "Gratitude & Generosity Challenge" soon. :-)

Enjoy your Tuesday - I'm off to finish sewing down the binding! Thank you so much for stopping by - come again!

In Friendship!
