Pink Chalk Fabrics Giveaway
Kathy Mack is the creative force and mastermind behind Pink Chalk Fabrics & Pink Chalk Studio. Kathy & I have been "blog friends" for a long time. She was a busy woman at Quilt Market but we did get to spend a bit catching up and talking business.
A great thing about Pink Chalk is that all patterns ship for free in the US!

Pink Chalk has an amazing fabric selection. One of my favorite features is that you can Shop by Color. Today I'm in a green mood. Here are a few prints I quickly found...
Erin McMorris - Summersault Raindrops Celery
Lizzy House - 1001 Peeps Pearl Bracelet Green
Josephine Kimberling - Just Dandy Daisy Wreath Sweet Pea
Etsuko Furuya - Echino Ni-Co 2011 - Mini Car Green

Just one more stitch giveaway
It's Giveaway time again!
First of all, Happy Mother's Day to all of the mom's out there. I hope your day is special. :) My son and family live far away and my mom passed away two years ago, so it will just be a quiet day at home with my hubby. I always get a bit down on this day, but I just may spend it at the sewing machine! Maybe that will cheer me up. :)
We have a new fabric shop that is sponsoring a wonderful giveaway for us, and I think you'll like it! In case you haven't visited SkyeReve Fabrics, you will need to pop on over and see what Natasha has in store for you (click on link or there is a link button on my sidebar). If you hurry, she has a Mother's day sale going on that ends on Monday, May 9th. She also has another great deal going on until the end of May. Every time you make a purchase at her shop, your name goes in the pot for a $50.00 credit to her website! I just love the name of her shop. She says it's the middle names of her precious daughters. :)
Would you like to see what one lucky winner will walk away with? Okay, well here ya go....
Pretty? Well, you will get a HALF YARD of each of these fabrics! That is SEVEN half yard pieces! This is the Honey Child green and blue bundle by Jennifer Paganelli. I just love these colors together.
Naturally we have to have a few things for you to do to enter. It's only fair, ya know? I mean....just sayin'... Natasha is wonderful enough to give these wonderful fabrics to a lucky winner, so we at least have to make it worth her while. No worries, though. It's all easy peasey!
Please make each of your entries a separate comment and ONLY on this post. If you do them all together, Mr. Random generator doesn't know that, so you aren't getting credit for all of your entries. :) Also, PLEASE PLEASE make sure that I have a way to get in touch with you. If I can't, then I will have to do another drawing. :(
You don't have to do ALL of these, but of course, the more you do, the more chances you get. You DO have to be a follower of my blog, though, and "like" Skye Reve Fabrics on Facebook if you have an account. Other than that, the rest are optional.
1. Be a follower of my blog and make a comment telling me so.
2. "Like" SkyeReve Fabrics on Facebook and leave her a comment saying you came from here and then come back here and tell me in a comment (for Mr. Generator man).
3. Post about this giveaway on your blog and come back and comment about it.
4. Post about this on your Facebook page and come back and comment about it.
5. Go over to SkyeReve Fabrics, check out Natasha's favorite picks, and come back and tell us which one you like the best.
6. If you won this beautiful fabric, what would you make with it? Leave a comment and let us know.
That's it! No asking for your first born, your bank account number or how much you weigh (nevah happen on THIS blog! LOL) This giveaway starts now and will end on next Sunday, May 15th. I will announce it here and also email the winner.
Good luck to each of you and again, enjoy your day tomorrow! Hugs to each of you that are so faithful to visit me and comment and to all my new friends, too! You just can't know how much it means to me. Please come back often!
Hugs and love from Texas,

Spring is here!
Have tomatoes and peppers started inside... have already transplanted the tomatoes to peat pots but need to do this to the peppers also. I prefer to grow my own plants from seed... there are so many heirlooms or unique varieties that you just can't get unless you grow your own.
I also have shallots, onions, fennel and celeriac up and growing, the herbs have not yet sprouted.
I will be getting my fingerling potato seed Wednesday... have grown potatoes before but never fingerling varieties.
Not sure when the 2 dwarf apple trees I ordered will be in, at least that gives me time to decide location placement and to pre dig the holes. :-P
Hopefully, next weekend will be nice enough to allow me to move all my old chicken coop bedding out to the garden for spreading out and tilling in. I used to compost, however, my chickens are now my "masters of compost" now. lol
Here is a cool link if you like gardening:
