Fall Into Fall Giveaway

It's finally time for the great Fall Into Fall Giveaway!  Everywhere you see this little guy:

you'll find a blogger giving away a prize, or two or three! 

I've joined the group and here's what I plan to give to some lucky winner.  :)

This is what I call an "Everything Bag."  It is about 18" x 21" and I made it from some beautiful pink and brown cotton fabrics.  I've made several and given away most of them - they've become a favorite among my family and friends.  One daughter uses hers for her knitting, another for her "everything I need to take to school today" bag (she's a librarian).  My aunt uses hers to carry her tape recorder and audio books (she's blind and reads all her books by listening) and my cousin takes her "stuff" to dialysis in her bag.  I used one recently as an overnight bag but truth be told, they are supposed to be grocery bags!  Since recycle is high on everyone's list it makes a much prettier one than the WalMart bags I currently use for that.  :)

I'm writing this post from a mission in south Louisiana where we've been volunteering for the last four months.  We will be returning home on October 1st - the day of the giveaway - but when I get there I'll be filling the bag up with goodies to make you smile.  I don't know exactly what but I'm sure it will include a little fabric, a quilting/stitching notion or two, a couple of patterns, the kitchen sink.  Oops, not the sink! 

I really, really would love it if you would follow my blog but that in no way will play a part in who wins.  I'm a little old fashioned so I'll just be putting all the names in a hat and drawing one out.  All you have to do is comment on this blog and be sure I have a way to contact you.  International bloggers are invited to participate too - the more the merrier!
