Without further ado . . .


#17 - Sandy from Vintage Sandy - the bag
#36 - Lynn from Trash to Treasure Art - the vase

and I put the names of those who blogged about my giveaway in a hat and drew out Debbie from Craftymoose Crafts.  Debbie will win another bag!  (sorry I don't have a picture, but I hope you like it!)

I hope I handled this giveaway fair and square but mostly I hoped you had fun commenting and entering as many times as you liked!

We all know why we blog. There are those that write much better than I and have expressed so eloquently what I feel about meeting all of you. You really have no idea what each comment means to me. You brighten my days! You inspire me to try new things! You show me that what I dream about is possible and all I need to do is try! You are people I hope to know better! And I strive to become as sweet, as kind, as encouraging as each and every one of you have been to me! And if you are a new follower - WELCOME! I hope you'll visit often! But if you have been a follower for awhile - THANK YOU! I cherish your friendship!


Now, go make someone else as happy as you've made me . . .

Hi Connie...thanks for stopping by my blog..and for your lovely comments. I'm LOVING this world of blogging...just as you said, it's people commenting that gives us the lift each day isn't it? It's sharing some caring! Like a friend just popped by to say hi, just because they can! I know I can't wait to open my inbox in the morning to see if anyone's "dropped by" and left me a wee message. It's lovely. :) Sorry I missed out on being a winner (how did that happen?! haha)..maybe another time. But i'm a winner anyway...getting to know all you amazingly creative women (mostly) on the other side of the world!
Have a blogalicious day!
blessings...jessie xx

Hi Connie,
Thanks for stopping by! No, we are not going to do the Bonanza this year. I'm feeling like I'm missing all the fun though! Besides it meant me asking for too much time off of my school job. We decided it was better for business to do something close to home. So we are hoping the Qwest show will give us good exposure to people in the area. The Bonanza is a ton of fun though. Be prepared to be overwhelemed!!! I've never seen so much cool stuff in one place. I can't wait for all the picutres getting posted on the blogs so I can see what I missed. We are hoping to go on the Junk Jaunt though so we can buy!
Take care,
Laurie

Thank you, Connie. I am so glad to have found you. Yes, I am going back to Silver Bella. It was incredible. I am already stresssing over my swaps...but that's how I seem to do it. I am sewing for the first time in ages. The jewelry one doesn't stress me as much, but it is one-on-one so it better be good!!!
Hugs,
Suz
