SEW MAMA SEW--GIVEAWAY DAY!!!! WELCOME

It is that time of the year again, The Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Day(well, really week!) I love Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Day! It is so much fun to visit new blogs! It is a great way to make new friends and also a chance to win great giveaways. I keep thinking I will blog more but I am so busy reading other folk's blogs that I forget to post on my own.  Please check out some of my posts....not too hard to do since I don't blog too often...I mean to, but just keep putting it off.

For my giveaway this May, I have 8 fat quarters! 6 are from Connecting Threads. I love the corals and yellows together! Aren't they yummy? To add a bit to the fun, I am including 2 fat quarters from Heidi Grace. I love these two pieces but decided to share them with someone new...I might regret it later but I'm going to do it anyway!
UP CLOSE
STACKED

AREN'T THESE HEIDI GRACE FAT QUARTERS YUMMY?


What do you need to do to win? No jumping through hoops for me....just leave me a comment about your summer plans. I love reading your comments! My kids will be home from Russia and will be here the end of July so I am really excited! We have all the holidays from the past year to celebrate when they get here!!!!

 If you want an extra chance, you can follow me or if you already are, tell me so in a second post. I will ship internationally.

I  will end my giveaway Friday night May 16th  at 8 PM EST and randomly draw a winner at 9 PM EST. I will notify the winner by email so be sure that I have a way to reach you!
PLEASE MAKE SURE I HAVE A WAY TO GET IN TOUCH WITH YOU! THERE ARE MANY POSTS FROM GOOGLE PLUS BUT NO ADDRESSES SO I CANNOT GET IN TOUCH WITH YOU IF YOU DO WIN!
