A Giveaway!

Wow - I'm at 495 posts and now have over 300 followers - thank you one and all for sharing my passions. I'm figuring that by next wednesday I'll be at 500 posts and this calls for a giveaway!  How about a couple of books, some fabric, a notion and maybe a finished project.  Interested?  Can't tell you what the specific items will be as this is going to be a mystery box, but it's open to all my readers.  Just be sure if you use anonymous that you include an email for ya so I can reach you to let you know if you won.  I have a question for you below.  Leave a comment to answer that question and you'll be entered.  If you are a follower, tell me so, and you can guess twice.  If no one guesses the answer, I'll do a random draw of all guesses made.  If more than one guess correctly, I'll do a drawing of just them.  The only thing I'm saying is that the answer is not a "number" - LOL - that's what my husband guessed.
Okay here goes:

Here's is my latest Craftsy Block of the Month.  It is for the month of April.  Amy challenged us to come up with a design using hexagons.  I came up with an idea and decided to execute it in extended hexagons. So, your question is:  What was Angie trying to depict in her block?  This giveaway ends Wednesday, April 18 at 6 PM so I can post a winner on Applique Thursday.  Good luck!

  26. second guess.
    initials of a grand child?

    ReplyDelete
  27. I have no idea. It could be my initials but my guess would have to be something garden related.

    ReplyDelete
  28. I am a follower :) My second guess would be a high chair and table. I'm no good at these guessing games - lol!

    ReplyDelete
  32. Hmmm, it does kinda look like a garden maze.
    Oh well, thanks for the giveaway.

    ReplyDelete
  33. To me it looks like a secluded spot in a garden - somewhere to get away from it all to think!

    ReplyDelete
  34. I am going to guess what you see out your window.
    I have spent far too long searching for a clue as to what this could be but I am giving up and going to bed.
    I will just wait until you post the result.
    However, I have signed up for the BOM at craftsy after searching for clues and being amazing and inspired by everyone's work.
    Thanks very much for showing me this great course.

    ReplyDelete
  40. I think you're looking down from above at hedges that form a small little secret spot in the middle for reading, thnking or just relaxing. Can't wait for the reveal!

    ReplyDelete

  45. Jen Dewey wildrice1354@gmail.comApril 16, 2012 at 2:25 PM

    My second guess is it could be the arrangement in your living room. I have no idea as you can see. jen

  46. I am a follower. I think it is a snail trail.

    ReplyDelete
  47. I am going to guess that it is a turtle on a lap top under a lamp. hahahahahahaha

    ReplyDelete
  48. Congratulations on your achievements. I cannot play the Craftsy videos on dial-up(though signed up some time ago - cannot find the pdf directions that are to be there). The lesson is for English paper piecing of hexagons and making columns - perhaps using fabric contrasts for a pattern of zig zags. To me, it looks like an umbrella for April showers or all the green showing in a garden.

    ReplyDelete
  49. It looks like the number '67' to me. That's my first guess :) Thanks for the chance to win!

    ReplyDelete
  50. For my second, follower guess, I'm going to say a hedge maze (aerial view).
