and the winner is.....



actually i have 2 winners....


i  put auntie mary in on the drawing because she is such a faithful follower and commented on my blog that her favorite thing she has made is her independence quilt ( i wonder if i can get my name on the back to get someday...) i need to get a picture of it as it is just beautiful like all her work. anyway of course that was the name mom and dad drew! ( too funny ) but.. since auntie mary is right here near me, i really wanted the give away to go to blogland soooo i will make up something special and similar to the give away for auntie mary and i will get a picture of her with it tonight. which means .... the winner of my 50 follower give away is.............
KIM! of MILLIES MATS!!! her comment of one of her favorite things was a rug she had hooked for a special friend with cancer. what a great gift for a special friend kim! and congratulations kim! thanx so much for following my blog!

this picture is my dad trying to hide the names when i got up to get Advil, but i was right behind him.. always up to something my dad!
i have the cobblestone quilters coming tonight and its been sooo hot here so i am not turning on the oven sooo i am serving an open-faced chicken avocado burger and a wonderful salad with romaine lettuce, swiss chz,cashews, dried cranberries, apples, pears and a wonderful poppy seed lemon drsg. its called a winter salad! maybe it'll cool us off a bit! so i will be back hopefully tomorrow with some show and tell!
