3rd Blogiversary Celebration in Progress- and Giveaway!




Celebration in Progress!


Today is my blogiversary!  (Can you believe I started this blog on April Fool's Day??)

When I started this little blog three years ago, I never thought I would actually blog, you know?  I started the blog so that I could comment on photos of my adorable granddaughter on her mommy's blog.  Now, three years and some 377 posts later, here we are.  It's kind of amazing to think how far three years will take you.



That little granddaughter is 3 now.  Oh my!

And she has a little brother who will be a year old this week!


That seems like reason enough to celebrate, don't you think?  (Can't you hear them laughing??)

Anyway, I've decided to celebrate by giving away this luscious Fat Eighth bundle of Full Moon Lagoon by Mo Bedell.  I {heart} this yummy bundle.  I really think I will have to buy one for myself - the colors are soooo beautiful.  If you don't happen to win it, you can purchase your own from Westwood Acres.


So what do you need to do to enter,  you ask?  It's easy peasy:

1.  Leave a comment below telling me what you would make with this delicious fabric if you are the lucky winner.
2.  For a second chance, follow my blog, or let me know you are already a follower.  Be sure to leave a comment and let me know as that counts as the second entry.
3.  For a third entry, like my Facebook page, or let me know you already have, and leave a comment here.  (If you'd like to leave a comment on my FB page too, that would make me smile.)
4.  For a fourth entry, use your favorite social medium - Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, your blog, or other social medium to let other folks know about this giveaway, and then come back and leave a comment.


So, you have four chances to win.  All entries must be left as blog comments - it's just easier to manage that way.


Pleeeeeeease be sure you are not a no-reply blogger.  It breaks my heart when I can't notify the winner.  If you are a no-reply blogger, and don't leave me your email address in your comment, I will immediately choose another winner.  Sorry.  (If you want to fix this, here's a handy tutorial.)

 This giveaway will be open until midnight Central time on Friday, April 5th.  I will choose a winner on Saturday morning sometime.

AAAAAnd, be sure to check back tomorrow - tomorrow is my day to post in the Charm Madness Blog Hop, and I have something planned that I think you will like.

Comments for this post are now closed.
