Blog Hop Party!!!! With Giveaways!!!!!

Blog Hop Party Link!

December 10 through December 17.

Join me and over two hundred blogs for a Blog Hop Party and the chance to win lots of prizes!  For my giveaway I am giving a set of four new "Square-agonals" Patterns that were just released at fall market in November.  Since there are a total of eight new patterns, that means I will have two winners, each getting four patterns!  What do you need to do?  Simply leave me a comment about what is your favorite activity during the holidays.  And don't forget to leave me your contact email.  The last time I gave away copies of my book I had several winners who I could not contact and therefore they never knew they won :(

Click on the link above or the "Blog Hop Party" in the sidebar to get the links to the other blogs.  Thanks for stopping by and have fun!

  1. My favorite activity during the holidays is taking photos of everyone as they open presents and whoever is around the dinning table for Xmas lunch and all the friends that pop around for a drink and/or BBQ in the evening. And once everyone has gone, I like to sew.

  2. Wow another bloghopparty, like last year! I like to give it a change, For me the christmas days are familydays, we all join at ones house and prepare a nice family dinner. We chat a lot and laugh a lot, stay overnight, laying out bads all over the house, always a lot of fun! Here in the Ntherlands we have Sinterklaas on dec. 5th, we (at least ous family) have no tradition of christmas gifts.

    Thankd for the give away and have fun reading all stories!

  75. At Christmas time, we have 3 separate family gatherings--- my hubbies family, my family, and "our" family with the girls and son-in-laws... Even though we all live close and have family gatherings all year, Christmas is SPECIAL! One thing that has been missing for many years though, is the excitement and wonder that kids bring to Christmas-- all the kids have grown up and things just weren't the same... But this year, the joy is back! We have our first grandchild and she is the first Great-grandchild for the whole family! Christmas is going to be SO much fun this year!
