Yes, my friends, this here post puts me into four digits.
Its a little hard to believe that my ramblings are still interesting enough to keep you coming back after one thousand posts.
But here I am, and there you are.
Leave a comment on this post, even if you have never, ever left a comment before.
I was going to do one giant give away, but there is so little time to be spared these days to pull it together. So, how about if, instead of one person winning a pile of prizes, a pile of you each win one prize?
Several of you will win a free pattern... your choice from my entire list of published designs. Call it a free stash enhancement to get you started on the new year... a thank you from me, for the time spent hanging out in my corner of the woods.
**Comments are now closed for this contest. Thank you all so much for chiming in. Your responses have been a huge encouragement!**

You are a special person and I join with the others commenting here to say thankyou for sharing snippets of your world with us. I look forward to the next 1000 posts!!!
BTW - first thing that came to mind when I saw your pics today... Sigourney has gorillas in the mist - Beth has chicken's in the mist (equally inspiring - LOL). Am now also waiting with anticipation at the prospect of more puppy pics in the near future :)
