It's That Time Again - Drum Roll Please

It seems like it's taken forever to get this quilt to the point where it was ready to package and sell, but at long last here it is. "The Nature Of Love", inspired by one of my favorite passages of Scripture. (click on photo for a larger view)

It seems I also forgot my 2 year blogaversary, so I'm going to combine the two. That's right a giveaway for all my loyal regular readers. No extra chances if you post it on your blog (in fact I'd prefer it if you didn't). One comment, one chance. I'll leave it open until the 31st, and hopefully by then my packaging for the pattern will have arrived , and I'll be able to add it to my side bar for sale. I should state that it's one copy of the pattern I'm giving away and NOT the quilt.

Happy Stitching.

P.S. Please make sure that if you have your email set at no reply that you leave your email address to be in the running for the draw.

This quilt is sooo soft and the stitcheries are adorable, Linda ! Being my favourite sentences from the Scriptures, how could I resist trying my luck on winning the pattern sheet ? ;>)
So, now I'll keep my fingers (and toes) crossed, until the 31st !
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

PS : oh, by the way, your little birds are so cute, too ! Mine are all pieced, but now I'm hand embroidering the feathers, etc... (don't trust in my abilities with the machine ;>)
