My 100th Follower Giveaway

I can't believe that when I started my blog around 6 months ago that I would have 103 followers! I figured that my friends would follow, that would be around 10 or so but never did think that anyone else would be interested in my stitching. This blog and the great stitchers who read it and comment have given me immense pleasure. As does my reading all of your wonderful blogs. So on to the giveaway. I have included 10 items. One for every 10 followers. I have 2 pieces of fabric, 2 skeins of silk, 1 thread pouch by Impie, Hattie and Bea, 2 Prairie Schooler charts, 1 Plum Street Sampler chart, 1 chart by Blue Ribbon Designs and the latest pair of Gingher scissors named Sonia! The rules are simple. You must be a follower and if not please join. Comment on this post only and if you post about my giveaway on your blog you will get another vote. I will pull a name on October 1st. Again, thanks to all of you! Good Luck and Happy Stitching!
