Giving Thanks with a Give-Away - Blog Hop Party

Blog Hop Party with Give-Aways


I am running a little behind joining this Blog Hop Party, so I am going to make this short and sweet!

For those new to my blog -

I have so much to be thankful for! This has been a year of unexpected blessings and even though some of these blessings seemed overwhelming at first, they are blessings and I am so thankful for them.

My name is Jessica, I am a wife and mom of two boys, 9 and 5, and we have a surprise blessing (baby boy) on the way (due mid-January). I work from home doing accounting and bookkeeping.  I love to quilt and craft, and have been learning to sew things other than quilts over the past year. Since May my life, quilting/crafting, and blog have been hijacked by my pregnancy and all things baby!

Pretty much this is what I have been working on since September - Crib bedding, curtains, wall art, burp rags, fabric baskets, etc. 

I am giving away 6 Fat Quarters of Happy Go Lucky by Bonnie and Camille for Moda. I love this line of Fabric and thought I would share some with my readers!!!


To Enter:

All you have to do to enter is leave me a comment. Share with me something you are thankful for. 

If you follow me, please leave an additional comment for an additional entry. 

The contest is open through November 26th. The winner will be selected randomly on November 27th. I will notify the winner via email, so please leave me your email address in the comment if you are a "no-reply" blogger. 

A list of other blogs participating in the Giving Thanks Give-Away Blog Hop Party will be available on the afternoon of November 21st at the Quilting Gallery

Also, I am willing to ship internationally so feel free to enter if you do not live in the United States. 

Happy Blog Hopping and Thanks for Stopping By!!!
