Time for a Give-Away ~ ~ ~


I am so overdue for a give-away!  I finally finished a little pumpkin mat.  It's about 7 1/2" x 11".  Just a simple table mat for fall.
Entering is easy.  Leave a comment on this post or drop me an email.  (I know blogger is giving some of us fits leaving comments!)   Be sure to put give-away in the subject so I won't miss it.  You don't need to be a follower, but I'd love it if you were.  I will pick a winner Wednesday evening, sometime after 7pm.  You are welcome to post this on your blog, but still only one entry per person.





I know you've seen these rugs many times, but I want to share them again.  Andi from That'll Do Farm took these and the color and sharpness is wonderful.  I want a new camera....waaaaaa :)



I am knee deep in Halloween boxes that have finally been brought down from the attic.  My goal was to have it all done a couple of weeks ago, but it didn't happen :(  I guess I'd better go get busy!
The weather here on Ohio's north coast is absolutely miserable today.  Cold, damp, and windy.  It's not raining at the moment, but we've had plenty of it.  I think the weather to the west of us is much better, so hopefully it will arrive here soon.  The dog event I was supposed to work today was cancelled and so was my grandson's soccer game.  There is a big outdoor antique/fall festival this weekend.  I feel bad for the vendors!
Thanks for stopping by!
Pug hugs :)
Lauren

    Please enter me in your generous giveaway! Oh how I covet that sweet pumpkin mat :) I'm glad to know that I am not alone putting up Halloween decorations this weekend. The older I get, the more tiring it is (and I'm not that old lol!)But I love the way it looks when I am done.
    Blessings, Patti

    Hi, Lauren. I have been following your blog and would
    like a chance to be entered in your drawing for the
    very pretty Pumpkin Mat. If I win it will be my first
    hooked piece. I want to learn rug hooking and have
    been reading tutorials. I can't wait to try it. I am
    posting this giveaway on my blog sidebar under my
    Prim Giveaways column. Thank you for having the terrific giveaway.
    Warm Regards,
    Susan

    Hi Lauren,
    Trying to get used to this new keyboard, I have to re-do practically every thing I type.
    Wow, those pics are sharp and so good. What kind of camera does she use? I know it's not my fault I can't take good pics, it's the camera's fault!
    Would love to be entered in the drawing, I want to be the proud owner of some of your work!
