Giveaway and Blog Hop!

By Denise Russell

[Giveaway closed.]
Wow! This is my second giveaway this month!

The Quilting Gallery is celebrating its 5th anniversary this week, and it is hosting a Blog Hop Party. There is a whole list of bloggers participating, all with great giveaways!

Before you head over to Quilting Gallery and the other blogs, read on for the details.

1. Leave a comment answering this question: Which daily routine you cannot live without? (Morning coffee, warm milk at night, etc.)

Note: If you are a non-reply blogger – or you are not sure – you may want to include
your e-mail address on your comment, using words such as ‘at’ and ‘dot’ in place of the usual symbols (this way you will not get spam email, and I will be able to reach you in case you are
the winner!)

2. Bonus: leave me another comment telling me that you are a follower, for an extra entry!

This giveaway will close December 15, 2012 at 5pm. The randomly chosen winner will be announced on Monday, December 17, here at this blog. I will ship internationally, too!

Now for the gift:

A layer cake, courtesy of Riley Blake Designs. Ten-inch squares of every fabric… Can you imagine all the fun you could have?

I am loving giving gifts to my fellow quilters and crafters, and I am sure you will love getting it, too!

So, leave me a comment, but don’t wait until next Monday to check out my blog again – you never know what I will come up with next!

    I would be lost without my one cup of coffee in the morning. I drink green tea the rest of the day but really enjoy that cup of coffee while reading my Bible. Of course it has to have some flavored creamer in it. Natural Bliss, has sugar but is oh so good. LOL

    I don't really have a lot of routines! I don't drink coffee, and what I do in the morning varies depends on what time we wake up, the weather, and the mood of my preschooler. Lately every morning he's been getting to check his Advent calendar to see what our activity of the day is.It's been so much fun!!

  127. Sandra says

    at

    Gave up coffee about 7 years ago. Now the morning routine that just doesn't seem right missing is when Rusty out pomeranians gets up on his daddy for his eye rubs then rolls off daddy to cuddle between us to get his belly/chest rubs. When it doesn't happen the day just seems off now.

    Denise, the morning is my best time of day. As I sip my cup of coffee I watch the quilting and sewing shows I have recorded while I needle turn a little bit. I do all this before getting dressed for work. Thank you for the chance

    Today I forgot my apple,and it screwed up my whole morning, so I can say for sure that an apple when I get to work is essential to my routine.

    I love to go for a walk everyday. Sometimes it's a short walk but I just don't feel right if I can't fit one in.
