Thanks to all my friends and family who played along with me!! It was fun....who knows maybe at 200 we can do it again?

100th Post Giveaway!

This post marks a milestone for me. For anyone who knows me the fact that I even have a blog is sort of huge. I am completely computer stupid. I have wise friends who advise me as needed thankfully! My friend Sarah is the first person to introduce me to blogs, I was instantly hooked. After a few short weeks I ventured out and tried my hand at it. I have enjoyed all the ease in which I can stay in contact with friends and family. I love all the great ideas from some seriously talented people. And well to be honest the blogs I love the most have giveaways. So I thought I would try my hand and that too.

Here is the courier bag I made. It is super soft and completely washable. It fits really nicely. Thanks to my friend M. who modeled it for me. In the bag you can find a few of my favorite things. I will keep those a secret for the person who wins! OK, so let's have you leave a comment and on February the 28th I will draw a comment and announce a winner!

If you think 6 months is bad....

Another baby gift, hold on to your hat Allie B. this baby was born 9 months ago! I started making the cutest and hardest baby blanket ever! It is/was homemade chenille. For those of you who don't know what that is you place at least 4-5 layers of thin fabric, such as muslin, on top of each other then sew lines 3/4 of an inch apart. Over the entire blanket! Now let me assure you that the fabric slips, yes I used spray glue. That you use oodles and oodles of thread. That after you use a special tool, or even scissors to cut through all but one layer of fabric. Then you wash it and it gets all foofy and cute looking. OK I did all the sewing and then was doing the cutting when my stupid tool slipped and cut through all the layers making a huge hole!! I was so sad and tried for months to think of a way to fix it so that it would still be cute. If someone out there has an idea DO NOT TELL ME!! because I finally threw it away. Then I found this cute panel and decided a 9month old was the perfect age! She will grow with it and hey her big brother and sister can use it in church too!

Now for the exciting news!!!

This was my 99th post, and I told some friends and family that for my 100th post I would do a giveaway! So after asking several people and thinking hard about it I have decided to do a little bit of this and little bit of that!

So check back tomorrow for pictures of the giveaway...
