Traveling Stash Giveaway!

Remember a few weeks ago when Ali was looking for someone to pass along the Traveling Stash?
That's right, I won!! How excited do you think I was when this box showed up in my mailbox?


"What is the Traveling Stash?" you may be asking...Basically it is a box filled with random goodness such as fabrics, notions, patterns, etc. If you win the Stash, you are welcome to take out whatever you want to keep, then add in your own items and pass it on. You can read more about it here.

Here's what I found when I opened the box...


It was so fun looking through all those fabrics and thinking of what I might want to keep and what I would be adding into the box. 

So, would you like to be the next Stash recipient?

Just leave one comment here, maybe tell me something you are looking forward to? 

Here's mine: It is cold, grey, and snowy here today but I am looking forward to our Florida vacation in a couple weeks. I need some warmth! Your turn!!

Here's the fine print:

To enter, you must be:
1. An active blogger
2. A U.S. resident (Sorry international friends!)
3. You must promise to refill the box after you have taken out what you want to keep. 

 I'll keep the giveaway open until 8 PM Eastern time Wednesday, Feb. 15th. Sound good?

    What a fun idea!

    I'm looking forward to a trip to the zoo on Saturday - which will also involve gifting a quilt I made for the three year old son of a friend of ours, as well as thrifting at a shop that our friend said has a bunch of vintage fabric.

    What a delightful idea. It could have its own blog...Tales from the Road...each recipient could make a guest entry.

    What a cool idea! I'm looking forward to my son's birthday. Actually, his party moreso than his birthday. Okay, so I'm ready for his party to be over, let's be honest here! I invited his class thinking half would bow out because it's during our winter break. Uh, no. So far I'm at 11 yeses and counting.
