A Wonderful Material Treat


I won the most wonderful prize in blogland!
For those who know me I am "allergic" to sewing, thread, material, needles, etc.  My mom had me take all the 4-H classes in sewing but I was a disaster.  It is amazing she and I lived through it. 
 I am always amazed at what people can do with material.
I entered Cottonwood Lane Primitives giveway not to long ago and longingly looked at the beautiful penny rug (OK, I was coveting it) and thinking how great it would look in my house.
AND I WON!!!!
Roberta had packaged the treasure so nicely with a cute little card.
Aren't you all amazed I had the self restraint to get the camera and take a photo!
I am proud of my self for that!

In to the package I tore.  Probably not as gently as I should have but look at this beautiful rug!
The photo just does not do it justice!! 
My husband who collects Native American Rugs really attached himself to it.  We are going to hang it on our wall in the entrance way for everyone to see!!
Roberta, your work is marvelous.  It is created so well and you can see love in every stitch!
Thank you so much!!
Take a look at her blog to see what she is stitching up right now!

Thank you to everyone that came over to the "A Farmhouse Gathering at Artfire" blog and sign up to win the sign below.  Julie was the winner.  Congratulations!!

Happy Memorial Day Weekend

If you are like me you have lived through the winter-loving it at times then looking forward to the change of seasons known as spring then into summer!  But this year has been a bit crazy weather wise.  Cold one day and then hot the next.  It looks like we will be having rain again on Memorial Day.  But for people who lived in Vegas nothing will stop a BBQ-heat, cold, rain, snow!!  So let the Summer partying begin!!  Then I will star whining about the heat!!

So before you get to busy this is your last chance to sign up over at the OLD FARMHOUSE HOUSE GATHERING Blog for the fabulous give away...do it now!


Then while you are in blogland hop over to A FARMHOUSE GATHERING ON ARTFIRE Blog to sign up for this giveaway.  This one ends June 3rd.

That is not all... come June it is a big month for me so I will be having two giveaways.  One to celebrate a huge big numbered Birthday and another to celebrate my one year anniversary of Blogging.  My how time flies.  So stayed tuned! And a bit of a catch here for the first person to comment on this post will receive an appreciation gift-so hopefully the early bird will get more then a worm!!
Enjoy your Holiday Weekend!
