Giveaway Winners Finally Announced!

Well, hello!

Happy Easter!

I certainly didn't mean to go away for so long.

I had been on a trip to visit my mother and  my family.

It got very busy.

I don't know if I have shared this

 but my mom has Alzheimer's.

It is a horrible disease.

My poor stepfather has his hands full... 

so I have been going down to

help and give him a break.

I certainly thought I was going 

to have some computer time while I 

was there... but it was just way too busy.

I even took a mini project to make some yoyo's in red white and blue and 

sew them into a flag... but I didn't even take a stitch!

When I got back home I spent the entire day in my sewing room!

A good place to decompress!

Not that I got a whole lot done... 

but I did manage to work on Star Blossoms a little bit.

I got the center stars made before I left.

I made a mistake, which set me back but I ordered some

more Madhuri fabric and continued to work on the 

outside of the block with what I did have.

I got this far before I started to feel guilty about 

a messy house... so this is where I left off.

Of course today will be busy with focus on Easter.

We will have a Easter egg hunt and dinner this afternoon with 

my family. 

This morning I started ironing the table cloth and napkins! 

(not real well... just enough to get by)!

I still need to announce the winners of the giveaway!

I am really sorry to not have done this sooner!!!

I wrote a name list, a very messy list for each giveaway.

I had 90 people who prefered giveaway #1

and 51 people who were entered into giveaway #2.

People who didn't care which one or wanted me to choose for them

got randomly entered into a list.

The winner for the envelope of assorted patterns is:

Sherrill at Quilting in My Sleep

The winner of giveaway #2, the McKenna Ryan BOM kit is:

Sherry from Blessings From Our Nest
