Sister's Choice Quilts

My interests are quilting, reading, cooking, family, decorating, and matters of style. I post regular quilting tutorials and book reviews of current fiction.

Ooops, Sidetracked Again!

002

Got a little sidetracked last week.   A favorite aunt passed away unexpectedly and I found myself travelling to Detroit, Michigan of all places.  Let's just have a moment of silence to be grateful for California weather.  I am home now, and all excited to announce the winners of my 1500th Blog Post Giveaway!

Gosh, was it ever a treat to read all those lovely comments you left me.  Wow.  All I can say is thank you from the bottom of my heart, and I look forward to years more posting to come!  It will be worth it to write 1500 more posts just to have a chance to read such wonderful remarks from people!

The three winners are:

1) Liz S. "1500 post? Wow! Congratulations! I've been a regular reader of several years now. I read on a regular basis because I feel I have so much in common. Same age group (ahem), wantabe decorator (love your style!), The QUILTS!! also I love to hear what you are reading, and cooking and gardening!….. and yes I'm a dog owner so I get a kick about reading your dog's antics. Really the best thing though is your writing… it really comes across like a telephone conversation with a friend! Thank You for all those everyday life stories! Keep up the great work Nicole!"

2)  Gloria.  "I have followed your blog for 5 years now. Congratulations! i first started following you because yours was one of the prettiest blogs and I got fabric and quilt shop information from you. Then I just wanted to keep up with you and your family. Keep up the good work, you are like family."

3)  Gwenette.  "Nicole, I've followed you through quilting trials and triumphs, father- in- law adventures and sweet granddaughter growing into a toddler. It's all been fun!!!! Congratulations on #1500!!!!! And what sweet give aways!!"

Thank you thank you thank you.  You are all so kind and your loyalty and support means the world to me.

  10. At one time I had your e-mail address and sent a picture of a quilt I made from inspiration from your site. I have completed another quilt and yours inspired me to make it. It is long road home. I wanted to send you a picture but cannot find your e-mail address.
