Today is Grow Your Blog!!! day hosted by Vicki at 2 Bags Full. Visit Vicki's blog here and see the list of bloggers participating. Many are new to blogging and would appreciate a visit and you are sure to "meet" some interesting and talented people.
I am late at getting my post up. I spent the day at a Sit and Sew sponsored by Melanie of Fabric Chicks in Coupeville, WA yesterday and had a wonderful time but forgot to complete my post. I have been blogging since March of 2010. It has been a great adventure and I have met many wonderful people all over the world through blogging.
Take a look around and you will learn more about me. Briefly, I am the mother of six and grandmother to 16. My husband is a pastor and I work full time for our local library system. I have always been a lover of books and my job keeps me working with them five days a week. I love to sew, garden, decorate, crochet, embroider, craft, spending time with family and friends, I could keep going. In doing all of the things I love I want to put the Lord's will for my life first.
The blogging world has been a blessing to me and I in turn hope to bless someone else.
This is the pincushion I am giving away, just leave a comment if you want to have a chance to win.
Hand embroidered on one side.
Pieced together on the other side.
Giveaway ends February 14th. I will announce the winner on the 15th.

Your pin cushion is so pretty! It gives me all kinds of ideas using vintage linens! I haven't been up to blogging much in the last 6 months. I do miss it but time is hard to come by with family things & working full time. Bloggers are special people & you are one of them!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Cindy
