It's just a bit of fun, and a way to say thank you to everyone who visits and leaves comments and also a way to say thanks to all the generous ladies out there in quiltblog land who take the time and energy to share their work online and bring me so much inspiration!
So, here is today's offering. This is a pile of scraps. More specifically, it is a pile of HST units, ranging in size from about 2" to maybe 3.5". These are mostly units which have been trimmed off flying geese or similar, which I feel I can't throw away, but which I never end up doing anything with except sending to charity quilt makers. I've been meaning to pass these along to someone, as I'd like to put something else in the little box they are living in (see - ulterior motives!). If you'd like to be enterred into the draw for these lovelies, just leave a comment before Sunday... More proper posting later, when I have collected a parcel from the PO and maybe even done some sewing!
[edited to say, I decided that "contest" isn't quite the right word so am changing it to giveaway and drawing... same principle, different title]

what a great idea!! I think I might have to follow suit! I have so many things I know a fellow quilter/sewer would love, but hate to just give them to charity or toss them.
I had company yesterday and didn't check my blogs. Am I too late? Not that I need any more stuff in my sewing room! Lol.
Oh - what fun! Can't resist going in the draw for someone else's scraps :)
Well, I would comment anyway :)...but for someone else's scraps...I'm here. I feel like my dog Shewka....my tail is wagging ;).
Great idea Kate and a good home ready & waiting in France!! Luv Ann J
I would love to be entered in your drawing. :D
I've been thinking about doing something similar on my blog. Great idea!! Count me in.
Oh, and by the way "She's Come Undone" is one of my favorite books too - very relatable!!
Oh, I'd love to enter your draw. I'm sure I could find a use for those scraps.
hi love all the postcards--your mail man must really appreciate the scenic mail too? thx for the comment on my blog. Yes time goes so fast, when I was younger (single, no DH or kids) I used to remember feeling guilty when I 'killed time'. My fav was sleeping the day away. Now I'm like, thank gawd! I did that! Cause no one is getting a nap around here! lol!
You know I'll leave a comment if there's a giveaway involved. I do alot of charity quilts and hst are just what I could use right know. BTW, love the faces.
