Hello!! I'm finally here ready to start celebrating with all of you my blog-a-versary. Three years ago I started this little grand space of mine. I dare to say 'grand' because it has given me the opportunity to grow as an artist, a quilter, and a crafter in general. This space has given me a chance to meet wonderful and talented friends with whom I get to talk, and share the greatness of the creative process. The mosaic above is just a tiny sample of what I've been doing here. In three years I have posted 224. I have uploaded 905 pictures on Flickr; that without counting the swaps, the comments, the e-mail, and the best part: fabric shopping.
As this day approached, I decided that in this occasion I wanted to celebrate big time. Not only I want to celebrate my ability to keep up with this project, but also your recurring visits to my blog, your comments, and your advise in my sewing projects and in life in general. You are the ones that make this blog such a special part of my life.
That being said, let me introduce the six generous sponsors that have graciously accepted to join us in this celebration with lots of wonderful prizes for this massive giveaway. Here we go:
The Sometimes Crafter is sponsoring us with her lovely Amanda Knitting Bag pattern from her new pattern store.
Nicole, from Follow the White Bunny is sponsoring us with a $10 gift voucher for embroidery patterns from her delicious store.
Chikipita has graciously joined us in this celebration with two lovely cupcake wine stoppers. Aren't they adorable?!?!
Another lovely etsian friend, Sew Deerly Love is sharing with us an eight fat quarter bundle!! How awesome is that!?!?
The Fabric Shoppe is generously sharing with us an Alexander Henry fat quarter bundle.
And last but not least, Fresh Squeezed Fabrics is participating in this blog-a-versary giveaway with a $25 gift certificate. Awesome!!
Wow!! thank you so much to all our generous sponsors for making this blog-a-versary such a great event. I, myself feel like participating in my own giveaway for a chance to win one of these prize.
No catch on this giveaway, just leave me a comment. Since there is lots of prizes, I'm going to leave these giveaway open until Friday, August 12th, 2011. This way we'll have plenty of time to spread the word and have lots of participants. In the meantime I'll keep posting usual. Winners will be picked via random.org, and I'll match the winners to the prizes in the order the generator picks them out.
Thanks again for these three years, and please feel free to join me on Facebook, and Twitter for lots of sharing, chatting, and blog updates.
Truly yours:
Paloma
I adore this on-line community. . thank you for sharing the love my dear.
