Wow....... I think I might actually be the first comment. That never happens. Hmmm.... something random.... I just fed my cats. Thanks for the chance to win!
I live at an intersection where fender benders happen quite frequently. It makes me glad my front yard is bigger than the back, so no one accidentally drives into my house.
I just finished my first quilt. It's a boring wholecloth baby quilt, but I still feel pretty dang proud. Next time I'll try piecing the top. Then, if that goes well, I can work on turning the 150 napkins I sewed for our wedding into a quilt.
I can't wait to read (and use) the Modern Quilts from the Blogging Universe book!
Something random? I'm reading a book that I thought would be absolute rubbish, but is actually pretty thought-provoking so far. I like being surprised by the world like that.
I would love a signed copy from you! Something random: I am getting ready to go to Sew Cal in Cleveland OH here in a bit! I have never been so I am super duper excited to see all the fun springy new stuff! Yippie Skippy :)
My dog has completely wrapped himself up in his bed and is snoring contentedly. Why is snoring cute when it's a dog and really annoying when it's a man?!
You always make me smile. Thanks! My randomness right now is I'm taking a break from the American Girl website and checking out my favorite sewing blogs while debating how much damage the FREE shipping code from AG is going to do to my account!
I'm looking at a pink stuffed dragon that sings Johnny Cash "Ring of Fire". I gave it to my husband a few years ago. It makes us smile. Thank you for this great giveaway! Would love to have your signature :)
Once I accidentally boiled the water away from a saucepan of eggs and in a panic, doused them with cold water from the sink. They exploded. No harm done, just had to pick egg bits out of my eyelashes.
Would love to win it looks like a great book. I'm always hungry. I don't think I'm ever full. I ate a really old piece of candy from my drawer at work just now and it tasted bad but I didn't spit it out I still ate it. I'm sick.
I just bought myself a girlie pink Nintendo DS. My old red one was broken and all I could choose from was white and girlie pearlescent (!!!) pink. Oh well :-)
Yesterday I went to a talk on firewise landscaping and I learned that rosemary is a very flammable plant--not good to grow near your house-- but succulents (think Autumn Joy sedum, for example) are a better bet.
For the last couple of days i've been practicing FMQ with some online quilting busses and after lots of frustration found out my main problem was the bobbin tension. Once that was fixed everything started going super smooth!
I've had an eyelash (or something) in my eye for the past half hour, driving me frickin' insane!! (My husband doesn't care, so I'm glad to tell someone who does.)
Thank you for the chance. I love reading your blog. Random....Weather permitting were doing the Mana Road trip this weekend (7000 ft level road that circles the Mauna Kea Mountain)lets hear it for being dizzy for 4ish hours!!!
My neighbors are crackheads...well former neighbors I guess now that their house was foreclosed on...oh and I live in a good neighborhood. I think a possum moved into their garage. He's pretty creepy. Less creepy than the random guy that was camping out in their garage though...or the other random guy that was living in their house after the bank took over. That guy borrowed our hose a lot since the water in the house was shut off. I wish I was making this up!!!
I'm not really a modern quilter but I love your blog and get great ideas and inspiration from you! Random, I have 51 first cousins and I'm not Mormon or Catholic!
Random thoughts - my favorite twisted Thoreau quote from an old poster I have from the 80's: If a being loses pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer... or maybe he's just a weirdo
Thanks for the chance to win! Random....was talking to a friend this morning about this book, went online to order fabric for one of the patterns, & haven't even seen the book in person. Then I read through the blogs I follow to get updated from all that I've missed during the work week & see you're giving a copy away. Sure hope I win so I can actually make the quilt I bought fabric for! :)
Hi!!! I would love to win this book too!!!! Signed would be wonderful!!! Random!!!! I am eating sugar free fat free pudding and it is pretty good!!!! Thanks for the fun!!!!
I'd LOVE to win the book, especially if you signed it, thanks. I went on Weight Watchers in mid January, so far I've dropped 2 sizes, 11 lbs. and a bunch of inches. It doesn't sound like a lot of weight but, I'm only 4ft 9 1/2 inches (yes every 1/2 inch counts) ;-> I'm so happy! Thanks for letting me blurt that out. ;-> Toni Anne
Random: monkeys open bananas by pinching the bottom end and peeling, not from the "top" end of the banana. And yes, I'd want the book signed. Oh, I also had a daughter in September and I named her Audrey (different spelling, I know, but still an awesome name).
I had a pet lobster that my dad and I got on a whim when I was a teenager. We went to the grocery store and bought a live lobster. They put it in a paper bag...no water or anything. Then we put it in a tank at home.
Hi Audrey! I've had Vampire Weekend on my iPod for years, but I kind of forgot about them, so thanks for mentioning that they have new music out. My husband made a crockpot beef stew today with lots of wine in it. It was sooo good. It would be really awesome to win a copy of the book signed by YOU. Thanks. I do love your blog.
I love to bake! Cookies, muffins, cupcakes, you name it and I'll make it. You would never think by looking at me, all serious and quiet, that I love to make stuff and feed people.
I love your zig zag quilt. My ancestor tried to steal the Crown Jewels back in the 1600's and got caught. The family fortunes have not been too impressive since . Maybe I could at least win a book! (:
