Oh happy day! Summer is finally here for me. I have been wanting to do a giveaway as a thank you to all my loyal readers and friends, and now seems like a great time. You all mean so much to me, and I really mean that! Some of you have been friends for most or all of the 4 years I have been blogging, and I hope our friendship continues for many more.You've lifted my spirits when I was down, given advice, listened to my woes and cheered on my victories.
I love you for that and so much more:>)
So, I just couldn't wait any longer to post this giveaway. This is the prototype for my new pillow. I hope to have some in the shop by early next week, but for now, I am giving this one away and I'll send it out in time for you to get it before the 4th of July weekend. The giveaway ends Monday June 27th, that should give it plenty of time to get where it's going before the holiday. Here's how to enter:
Simple really, just leave a comment! If you want a second entry, just mention this giveaway on your blog and then leave me a separate comment to let me know you helped me get the word out. Please, please make sure you are either signed in to your blog so I can contact you, or leave an email address so I can reach you if you win. If I can't reach you, I will have no choice but to pick another name:>(
So tell me, what kind of fun do you have planned for the 4th of July weekend?

Oh...this is adorable, Kathy! I guessed it was a table runner when you gave us the sneak peek! How talented and generous you are. Pop my name into the hat!!
XO,
Jane
Wow girl that took some work...my pleats would never look that good..lol
We either go downtown for the largest parade in South Texas..then BBQ with friends and family...or maybe if I get my wish we will go to Wendy's and hang out at her house and pool and just relax and have some fun.
Thanks for doing this..I have enjoyed being your friend.
Hugs Cindy from Rick-Rack and Gingham
How pretty. Would look great in my Americana bedroom.

I LOVE the pillow! I actually love anything red, white and blue. Those buttons on your last post were very pretty also. What you wrote about friends is so true. I don't know what I would do without all my friends ~ young and old. Each one is SPECIAL in their own way. I think friends are one of God's most precious gifts to us. Love to you...

Me! Yes me! The one over here in central California. Yes, yes.....pick me!
Thanks for the chance at this gorgeous new pillow!
This pillow is just gorgeous! It would look perfect on a rocker or porch swing for the 4th! I am visiting my hometown, Ludington, MI for the best kind of small town celebration!
I followed you because I love your blog!!! You are my kinda blogger, adding you to my reading list! Thanks for sharing!
Kathy, I truly enjoy your blog. You are very talented and your work is absolutely beautiful! The pillow is awesome. Thanks for the chance to win. Take care...
Wow, you're very talented. The pillow is adorable, and would look great in my wicker chair, lol. Loving your blog.
If you knew how much I love ruffles, well I am just saying...this is a gorgeous pillow and I am Canadian..however my best of friends are Americans, Your work is simply scrumptious...
I love everything I've seen here. This is the way I was brought up. Of course, my mom and dad did most of the work, but I helped some--like shelling peas and butterbeans.
My dad always had something to eat growing. It might be in the ground or it might be in a huge bucket. I am delighted because my son seems to be following in his grandfather's footsteps and has a nice little garden with lots of things including herbs for his wife to use in her cooking. Anyway, I say all this because you are a wonderful example of the life we all should be leading. Frugality in not to be sneered at, but to be praised !! Lead on, my dear !!

What a darling pillow. Thank you for the opportunity to win such a wonderful prize. Love the ruffles!

Rita
