Thanks, Y'all!

A big thank you to all who entered The Great Migration Giveaway!
Goodman drew the names out of my Great Expedition hat (lol, I used it for beekeeping several years ago) in the same order that I listed the prizes in the giveaway post so...it's now time to reveal the winners of the prizes.

First Place winner of the Paper Bag Tote is Trish. Her blog is Thistle & Briar. (My camera was acting up because the batteries needed charging, so I didn't get pictures of the second & third place winners' draw.) Anyways....Second place winner of the dpn/circular needle case is LeAnn. Her blog is Knitting In Kingston Springs.
Third place winner of Gift Wrap, the six-pocket needle case is Laurie. Her blog is Knit2Purl.

Now, I didn't mention this in the giveaway post, but I've been blogging for a little over 18 months & have enjoyed it immensely along with reading every comment you've all left for me. All of your comments have been supportive & encouraging of my knitting, sewing, cooking, trips..whatever, & I appreciate that more than I know how to explain, really. One person in particular, though, has left more comments than anyone else & I have a tote bag left (one of the red city-chicks) that I would like to send that person as my way of saying thank you for being the top commenter on this blog. Without question Hakucho has been visiting here the longest(of those who still visit & comment, she only missed 2 or 3 posts) & faithfully commented on nearly all of my projects..obviously a longsuffering blogger. :)
Again, to all thanks for being here, Y'all.)

  2. Woo Hoo!! Congrats to all the winners! I'm sooooo jealous!
    Enjoy your goodies.
    I snagged a piece of fabric at a thrift store that so reminded me of you. It was a country fabric with seed packs...love it.
    Hugs!

  6. Oh Tea! Thank you so much! I am just so honored to have "met" you! I truly wish I could just walk through the back gate about mid-morning and visit with you over some yummy snack and a tall glass of iced tea.

    I think it's my turn to give out a surprise now!

  7. You know Deb aka Hakucho was the first blog I ever read, and because of hers I decided I HAD to become a blogger too.

    Congrats to all the winners.

  13. Oh, I'm hearing some chocolate calling your name!! I'll send some to you, fresh from the factory--it's only 20 minutes away!! Just tell me what kind you want and send me you address. I'll ship it off to you!! I'm sure Hershey's has a website that you should look at first. There's all kinds of things at the factory that you never see in the stores!!

    I'm serious--just let me know!

    Oh, and the weather--it's 70 degrees here right now--so nice!!
