One Year Blogaversary Giveaway Revealed

Drum roll please!

I used the Integer Generator at Random.org to select the number for this giveaway.

Congratulations to my Special  Friend  BEVERLY at
MY SEW SWEET STUDIOS.

I kind of feel like Publishing Clearing House because I am going to take this bag of goodies to her since we live in the same city, knock on her door, and present it to her before I reveal this post.  I think I better go get balloons too.  This is going to be so much fun.  I will try to snap a picture to show you.  This seems so appropriate since Beverly and I started our blogs at the same time and we were on the phone constantly helping each other and encouraging each other.  Thank you Beverly for all that you have done and continue to do  for me.  I was blessed when we moved next door to you and your family 35 years ago.  

















I had to show even the silly pictures.  I had such a fun time surprising Beverly.


If you want to know what was in the giveaway bag, Beverly will probably be showing it on her blog soon.  Also, if you want to be inspired, buy handmade items or have some custom sewing done you will want to visit Beverly at My Sew Sweet Studio.


Thank you everyone who entered this giveaway.  I hope you entered as followers but now have become friends.  I look forward to sharing many more fun times with you.

  1. Thank you Gail. I can't believe I won.
    It was such a generous prize and I can't wait to show it all on my blog. (have to get my camera back from DIL first)
    How fun to have you deliver it. I am going to have to add a disclaimer.
    I was suprised!! No face on, or hair do and in my run around the house clothes.
    Love you anyway, my friend.

  2. So, why does Beverly have on sun glasses in the house? Could it be that she hasn't put on makeup yet? You both look great, but I'll bet you were in big trouble! Congratulations Beverly!!
