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.

Scraps Give-Away

I just have to share this blurry picture of Ozzie and Remy.  They had been playing tug of war with a tennis ball, both of them hanging on for dear life, when by some silent signal, they both stopped tugging and dropped the ball between them.  After a bit of panting, they were at it again.  They rolled and tumbled for hours on the living room floor at my father’s house, oblivious to the dozen people sitting around watching them perform.  My son in law, Ryan, got them to pay attention for a minute.

OK, now for the serious stuff.  The Great Scrap Giveaway!   Since I have so many scraps and also because so many of you seemed to want them, I picked more than one winner.  Ozzie helped me out with the selection, but boy, did I ever have to be quick.  I couldn’t face cutting up 144 tiny slips of paper, so I just printed out the sheets and laid them on the floor.  Then I tossed two dog treats onto the papers and wherever they landed, I had my winner.  Ozzie nearly beat me to the dog treats before I had a chance to take a picture, but I prevailed.  Here he is poised for the catch.

My winners are Julia, who I think may be from Germany—-

and Linda from Oklahoma—– and Megan from Washington too, since the treat is kind of on both their posts.   Send me your addresses girls and I will send off the scraps!  I will even add in a few things from my stash to make up for you having to share.

  1. Love the photo’s of both the dogs. Did it wear Ozzie out, or is he still full of energy? Thanks so much for this Nicole, I’ve already sent you an email with my details.

  11. What is the blog for Remy’s mommy? Remy is just darling. When Maggie and half-brother Dughall get together all we can do is sit back and watch. They play their little Scotty games for hours.

  27. Congrats to the winners and I love how you picked them and I’m sure Ozzie did to. Not sure I could have beat Cami to that kind of thing, she’s low to the ground and fast. Love the pics of Ozzie and Remy together – really cute.
    Hugs – Karen

  37. Love the method of picking!
    My Belle would have a hard time waiting for me to say “OK” LOL She loves the small treats from PetSmart and as a lab you would think she would want the big ones but if we buy those she ignores them waiting for the little bitty ones! LOL
    Bye the way sorry about the reverse sewing episode and hope you are back to regular sewing now
