Pink Saturday and A Winner!

I would just like to say a great big
THANK YOU
to everyone who entered my giveaway!
My car died this week and I had to have a lot of work done
to bring it back to life! Kyle was in rare form all week and yet....
because of all of you..I had a great week! It was so much fun visiting all
your blogs and I have "met" a lot of wonderful new bloggers!
So without further ado...

the winner of my 100th post giveaway is

Kris from Vintage Window!!!

Send me you address Miss Kris! I wish I could send something to everyone!!

Now onto my pink post!

This quilt hangs in my living room. It is called a postage stamp quilt and was sewn by my great grandmother!
There are so many different colors in it I tried to take the pink ones.
I will share a full size picture later!
The one I took did not come out but it's late and I am tired!!
Head to Beverly of How Sweet the Sound for other Pink Saturday posts!

Congratulations to Kris! I love Pink Saturday's so many great Posts are put up for all of us to see. What a wonderful quilt and your so lucky to have it from your great grandmother. Older quilts, such as yours, are the absolute best and so very warm compared to the newer quilts.

Also, Since everyone was so helpful in my tassel giveaway, I am offering a 50% discount on tassels to anyone that left a comment for me on tassels. You may want to wait until I get more listed, or not. Choices are on my website. Just email me the ones you want when you make a choice. Website and email links are on my blog. Thanks so much for participating. I didn't plan this, I just couldn't figure out how to choose one person, so I took the first one with lots of ideas, and then offered everyone else a huge discount.
