Blue Quilt Top for blue Monday and tablecloth cakestand giveaway

   I am linking this post to Smilling Sally for Blue Monday . Also linking to Boogieboard Cottage for Masterpiece Monday. And Cindy at My Romantic Home for Show and Tell Friday.
THIS GIVEAWAY IS FOR THE CAKESTAND AND THE TABLECLOTH!!!
   If you could not already realize I love blue and the combination of blue and white is my favorite.  I use to make quilts, but when I became a florist, time was limited to this fun hobby. I appreciate the time and effort people take in making quilts and so when I find quilts or in this instance quilt tops I usually grab them up. I got this one at an auction a few years ago. I paid only $12.00 for it. I was thrilled at the price, but sad that no one else appreciated the time, money and effort that goes into this work of art. I am hoping that in my "old age" which in reality is now, I will be able to finish it. I would love to be able to frame it, but it is huge.
     Be sure and stop by Sally's for other blues today.
     I have finally hit 100 followers and in celebration of that I am doing a give a way. This is open to U.S. followers only. The only rule is you must be a follower or become a new follower. Just post a comment to this blog post and you are in the running. Since so many of my followers do tablescapes and tea parties I decided the gift would be a new spring green tablecloth 60" by 102" and the spring flower cake stand that I made from a vintage plate and vase. Good luck and I will announce the winner on my Monday's Blue Monday post. Have a great week. ~~Sherry~~

  6. I could never tell you how badly I would like to win that quilt. I love all kinds. New or vintage. I want all I see. I do not quilt, but I know some one that would quilt it for me. I rarely participate in giveaways, as I never have any luck. However, this is one I am to give another try for. Best wishes on reaching100 followers. Now after me, you have one more.

  13. What a beautiful quilt top and what a deal you got on it. You are so right - people just don't appreciate the work and the talent that goes in to the creation of one of these treasures. Congratulations on 100 followers! Your giveaway is lovely. I wish I could become a follower, but Blogger won't let me until I delete myself as a follower on some of the blogs I'm currently following. laurie
