Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Day




Hello everyone, and welcome to my Sew Mama Sew Giveaway! My name is Michelle aka Dresden Quilter. I have been quilting for over 20 years. I also have been knitting, and crocheting for longer. A few years ago I learned how to do red work and I love that as well.  Last year, I learned how to knit socks and I have grown a bit of an addiction to them. Yarn and fabric stores are both my favourites and can both be quite expensive! The people I love are my muses. I love to make things for the ones I care about. Presently, I am working on a pair of socks for my sister, a redwork table runner for myself, a quilt for my daughter, and a baby quilt for a friend.

For my giveaway I am giving away this charm pack of 42 squares of Dream On.






To enter, all you need to do is answer this question : If you could realize one dream, what would it be?

My dream would be to own a Janome Horizon, and more simply for people to be nicer to each other.

The winner will be chosen randomly and you must have a way for me to contact you. I am happy to ship internationally, from the beautiful country called Canada! I will leave the giveaway open until May 10 at 8:00 PM Eastern DST. Good luck with this and the other giveaways at Sew Mama Sew!

My dream would be for my daughters to be able to do what ever they wanted to do without having to worry about the cost/limitations of what they want to do. This in on my mind as we are headed to my oldest daughters college graduation this weekend and then sending her off to law school. Figuring out how we/she is paying for it has been stressful. I would love for her to realize this dream without having that worry.

I’d love to win! My dream is to travel to all of my wish-list destinations... and I'm luckily crossing a few off every year!
I don’t know if my email will show up, since I’m a WordPress user and by the looks of things, that means that even though I’d be willing to share my information, it might mean it won’t show up… :( (I read about this here: http://piecemealquilts.com/2011/09/08/no-reply-no-kidding/ after trying to figure out what a ‘no-reply blogger’ was! On Wordpress we always see the email addresses of those who comment.
