Blogoversary Giveaway


The little gadget thing over on the left is telling me my blog has been alive for 1 year.  Instead of baking a fabulous cake and celebrating with sugar and carbs (who am I kidding, I'll probably do that anyway), its time for a giveaway.  

I've been thinking about this for months, and decided to go with a
vintage
or
funky
theme.

Leave a comment stating your preference for vintage or funky, and I'll draw 2 winners on August 26 (I need the 3 weeks to figure out prizes).  I'm not totally sure what the winners will receive, but there will be a stitched item for each and some extra goodies, all suited to the vintage or funky theme.

Fine print:  I'd love it if you're a follower, you're welcome to advertise the giveaway on your blog, but no extra entries, my mind can't handle keeping track of that.  Good luck and thanks for hanging out with me the past year, its been a rough one!

    Congratulations on reaching a year on your blog. It is a wonderful read.
    While I prefer bright colours, I am not a huge fan of funky. So I am throwing my vote for vintage.
