200th post giveaway

I cannot believe it - 200 posts! Who knew I would have so much to say and share and show when I started this blog.-)

To celebrate this tremendous achievement, I’m having a giveaway of these lovely items – one winner gets all:

A “Moo Point” quilt from this post, inspired by a line from the TV show Friends; "It’s a moo point. It’s like a cow’s opinion. It just doesn’t matter. It’s moo!", and especially made for this joyous occasion by yours truly




A traditional Norwegian fabric panel (we don’t dress or walk around like that you know)



A piece of traditional woven Norwegian fabric (looks like a quilt pattern, doesn’t it)
1m of each skein from my fluffy and bumpy yarn collection which I used for these quilts
Different fibres and papers and felt used for these and this

To enter the giveaway you’ll do the following:
One entry: leave a comment to this post



Second entry: become (or be) a follower to this blog and leave another comment telling me so.



Third entry: blog about the giveaway and leave another comment telling me so.



If you’re a No-reply blogger, make sure you leave your email address in your comment so I have a way of contacting you!



The giveaway will close on the evening (Norwegian time) of Sunday May 9th and the lucky winner drawn on the 10th.

Good luck to you all!




The Table Cloth Challenge is open for another week, so there’s still time to go digging through those drawers or hit the thrift shops and join in on the fun! You can see some of my projects here.



I will link this up to Amylou’s Sew & tell and The Shabby Nest.

Sorry, the drawing is now closed.

    I have to say that I love you included the beautiful orange cow quilt! I am really happy. And you just shattered my fantasy that it is still 1826 in Norway and you people walk around in full dresses with matching bonnets! (Actually I have family over there...)

    Congratulations on reaching 200 posts.

    My mom was Norwegian and she came from a big family so there was a strong Norwegian influence in my growing up! Lefse and lutefist, for example .

    When I was in college I had the opportunity to spend a summer in Europe and managed a few days in Oslo (or Mom would have killed me). Wandering through a sculpture garden type park, there was a building; I looked in the windows and they were all weaving. So I wandered in and got to sit down at somebody's loom and weave several inches of a pattern like that.

    Any of your giveaway prizes would be fun to win, but the Norwegian fabric panel or woven pattern fabric would be really special to me.

    The joke here is that when my girls called their grandmother Mormor, it came out MooMooo. I get that now and again, but it's generally Mommo. That cow could have been stitched for me, lol.
    I've said it before, and I'll say it again: you're a very busy bee!
