Did you hear the BELLS and WHISTLES sound yesterday morning??…That’s when my 800th Follower joined onto our Sweet P Conga Line! YIPEEE! It’s time to PARTY!!
Thanks to each and every follower for popping in now and then to keep me company while I stitch away! To think it’s been only two years since I stopped Lurking and started Blogging! Many of you feel like family…I love hearing from your corner of the world, sharing in your travels, your current projects or what’s up with your families! You make me laugh and sometimes you make me cry…I worry when you are sick and I rejoice when things are going well. Hmmm…sounds just like family…! So let’s celebrate the way that quilters in Blogland LOVE to celebrate…with a Followers’ GIVE AWAY!
You all know how much I love Wool and my GO! Fabric cutter~so it seems only fitting that I should team up the two for this Give Away! I showed you a teaser snapshot yesterday…
Remember this little mug rug that I made last week? Well some lucky follower will win this little Fall mat plus all the wool on my cutting mat…
I cut out four little oval black mats so that you can make one mug rug for each season…
Here’s an idea of what you could create…There’s summer mat~
If this were mine…I’d stitch little ants walking on the watermelon slices…just sayin… (I used my Sizzix paper cutter to cut out these little wool slices).
Fall~stitch some swirls…adorable…
Winter…
More winter…
Plus I threw in a larger grey and green penny rug mat…
..that you could jazz up for Christmas…
More winter…
And back to Fall…
So there you have it…that’s 4 candle mats and 2 larger pennies with tons of wool appliques(which I have stabilized with Heat n Bond)…PLUS one finished Fall candle mat… 
You have enough wool appliqués to make tons of Christmas gifts and all the hard works been done for you…just sayin…
So the Give Away Rules…be one of my 800+ followers and leave me a comment. Easy peezy! I will randomly draw a winner on Friday morning Oct 14th.
So strike up the band…Come on join in…Wowzers!..800 followers makes one heck of a long Conga line! Now kick those legs and swing those hips…Yup…it’s a sight to behold! haha
THANK YOU FOR BEING SUCH WONDERFUL FOLLOWERS!!
Have a terrific Tuesday and Happy Quilting!~P
