100 and a surprise!!!
But we will talk about that later :)
It's my one hundreth post! Time for a giveaway!
The lucky winner will receive a jelly roll of Woodland Bloom by Lila Tueller, and the books Pretty Little Pincushions, the Sublime Stitching Craft Pad, and The Crafter's Companion.
Just leave a comment and I'll pick a winner next Tuesday night.
Now onto my crafty show-n-tell!
I was very disappointed in how empty my living room looked minus all the Christmas decorations. I made a few new things for the shelf:
The two canvases were made by stretching some Anna Maria Horner fabric across a blank 10 x 10 canvas.
The 'm' was something I had. I decoupaged it with some Amy Butler scrapbook paper.
I also made some new pillows for my couch:
That's Paige's nap quilt in the background.
And now for the very surprising news:
:) Have a great day ya'll!
CONGRATULATIONS! Just five weeks away from motherhood myself, so I can imagine your joy. What a wonderful giveaway! I'd love a chance to win...Thank you!

Congratulations!
Those look like Amy Butler's pillow pattern. I made some in the fall and just LOVE them! I was inspired looking at your pictures. My house feels empty now too. I love the garland.
