I have winners!!!!

Sorry to be so late with this ladies - I apparently am suffering from a bit of procrastinationitis.  Decided this morning I'd better get with the program!

Here are the lucky winners of the latest giveaways:

Jack at the Gate - Gayle!

Frosty and Friends - Fiesta!

Where Liberty Dwells - Kay!

Heirloom Stitches - Marsha B!

Congratulations ladies.  Please send me your snail mail addresses so I can get your prize out in the mail ASAP.

Give away drawings later today!

I'm still lacking email addresses for the following people:

L Carolyn Ghearing and Kathryn Knox

If you know either of these people please tell them to send me their email address so they can actually win if I draw their name.

Thanks everyone!

Update: I have found Carolyn Ghearing.  Now if only Kathryn Knox would answer the comment I left on her Google+ account!

Giveaway - "no reply" readers

One person has already left comments on my give away posts.  She is a "no reply reader".  I hope she sees this message.  Many of you don't realize you are "no-reply readers".  "No reply" is the default when you register on Blogger.  If you didn't specify that your email address is available, then you are "no reply".

IF YOU ARE "NO REPLY" I HAVE NO WAY TO CONTACT YOU FOR YOUR SNAIL MAIL ADDRESS.  THEREFORE YOU CAN'T WIN!

You need to know whether you are "no reply" or not.  If you are, you need to leave me your email address in each comment if you want into the drawing for that pattern.

(I'm not yelling - just trying to catch your attention!)

Good morning!

Give away news . . .

I've had great responses to my giveaways.  And guess what I discovered?  When I have stacks of magazine pages and patters on my cutting table and ironing surface I have no room to sew!  This will never do.  Even if I'm organizing instead of sewing.

So  . . . I'm moving the drawing up to Thursday - tomorrow - at 11:00.  I'm hoping I can have everything out of the sewing room and off to the post office by the end of the day on Friday.  I'm not going to worry about readers who check in only once a week or so.

Good news!  I eliminated 3 linear feet of 3-ring binder space on my bookshelves.  All my printed knitting patterns - both those I've printed from Ravelry and the Internet and those I've bought in yarn shops - are nicely organized in the bottom drawer of the filing cabinet.  I'm thrilled!

Have a lovely day everyone!

Gratitudes:

1.  A lovely day spent with spinning friends, resulting in a beautiful bobbin of spun singles
2.  The world's best grandson who turned 6 years old yesterday.
3.  A rescued pair of socks well on their way to being finished.
4.  A bowl of steaming, steel-cut oatmeal with brown sugar and almond milk
5.  A retired hubby who has taken on all the weeding in the flower beds

If you are interested in more than one of the giveaways

Please put a comment on each post that you are interested in.  If that means you post a bunch of times that's OK.  It's the only way I can keep things straight for the drawings, and figure out who wants what.

Thanks for understanding.

And I repeat - apparently it is necessary - many of you don't realize you are "no reply" on Blogger.  That is the default.  Please check, and put your email address in the comment if needed.  You can't with if I can't contact you.

Good luck everyone!

The last of the giveaways - I promise!

This is for the huge stack of pieced patterns from magazines - I will split it into either two or three piles so you have more than one chance to win.  You can see a picture of the stack here - it is the second picture down.

The large stack of applique patterns from magazines

I can fit these into one box, so they will go to one lucky quilter.  You can see the picture of the stack here - it's the third picture down. Sorry the picture is so dark.  Believe me, there are a lot of wonderful patterns here.
