(This post was delayed due to my work schedule. Sorry!)
When Cynthia at Quilting is more fun than Housework offered a Quilty Orphan Adoption, I thought it would be a good time to search the projects and stash to see if there were things that I could offer. You see, it fit right in with my current decluttering efforts around our home. Win-win!!
It turned out that there were several items that I was willing to list. I gathered them up, composed a blog post, and linked up with Cynthia's event. I felt very proud of myself...
Until...
I felt it necessary to visit the other participating bloggers adoption offerings!!
Well, you KNOW what happened, don't you???
I placed some bids.
The GOOD news is...
Not very many and of the bids placed, only TWO new items came to live with me!!
I won a BEAUTIFUL Baltimore Album block from Mary Huey who blogs at Quilting through Rose-colored Trifocals that I intend to incorporate into my niece's wedding quilt:
I also won a pattern, intended for my friend Jean. It turns out that Jean found templates, so I have a THIS new-to-me pattern from Summer who blogs at The Easy Quilter:
Second Chance Orphan Adoption: (Drawing now CLOSED!!)
If anyone is interested in THIS Thimbleberries packet, please let me know:
It's filled with everything from scraps to FQs and it's yours for the cost of postage!! (Which should be $6.80 for Priority service within the US.) The bundle was popular with my bidders and I attempted to contact my winner (via email and in this post), but my winner didn't respond back.
After a week, I contacted a NEW winner, but haven't heard back from her either. :o((
SEW...
Now is YOUR chance!! Please make sure to leave the BEST email address to contact you.
I will draw again on Monday, April 11, 2016.
Until next time...
Adopt (Quilty) Orphans!!!
Oh, puleez pick me! I would love these for a BOM I am working on.
ReplyDeleteI would love this fabric to make a quilt for Ronald McDonald House.
ReplyDeleteThe Baltimore Album block is gorgeous. I can just see it, playing beautifully with the other blocks in your niece wedding quilt. Good call. The pattern looks very interesting too. (Thanks but no, I don't wish to be in the draw for the fabric.) Enjoy the new projects. ;^)
