Grow Your Blog 2014

Hello!  My name is Angie and I love to quilt, read and garden. Come February 28th, 2014, I will have been blogging for 5 years.  I can't believe it!  You can see my first post here.  I love how blogging has introduced me to so many new friends around the world - Spain, Norway, Netherlands, Australia, Canada, Malaysia, the Philippines, the UK, Germany, of course the US and many more - places I would love to visit but will never get to all of them in one lifetime.  And I have learned so much from the fabulously talented quilters that inhabit blog land.  I love to go to new sites and see what my fellow quilters are up too, see their eye candy, view their sewing studios. So when I came across Vicki's post  - Grow your Blog - I thought what a way to meet more friends out there and discover more fascinating blogs.  Over 500 bloggers signed up for the event. Wow!

So welcome to my blog. I hope you'll stop by now and then to see what I'm up to and comment. Then I can visit your blog/flickr group/email and do the same. Here's one of the projects I'm working on at  present.
I post whatever progress I've made on Fridays as Hexie Weekend and have a Linky Party for it too.  You're invited to link any eye candy you've made, are working on, or dream of starting (it doesn't have to be hexies) to share with us.  There's one going on now - previous post.

Then on Tuesdays, I write an Applique Tuesday post to keep me moving forward with my favorite type of quilting.  Here are four blocks that are waiting to become a wall hanging.  I also post about the family, the garden (or lack thereof in this drought), and charity quilts.  I'm
always looking for simple patterns from which to make 36" quilts for the low income, first time mothers in our parish who need a little help and love.

As a thank you for stopping by, I'm having a giveaway during Vicki's  fabulous event. I'm giving away a $25 gift certificate to one of my favorite online stores:  The Fat Quarter Shop.  This giveaway is open to anyone. In order to win, leave me a comment and tell me where you are from (please be sure you are not no-reply on Blogger).  For a second chance to win, you can become a follower and leave a comment telling me you have done so. Winner will be chosen on February 15th.  Good Luck! 
PS:  Come Feb 28th - I'll have another giveaway for my blog anniversary - mark it on your calendars.

    You have inspired me to go on with the hexies, and now you tempt me to start appliqué blocks too. I did much of appliqué before. I'm from Norway, and I'm happy to be your blog friend.

    Welcome to the big beautiful Grow Your Blog Hop! I volunteered to help Vicki as a GYB party volunteer. Vicki will stop by sometime I am sure, but with over 500 blogs participating it will take her time to visit everyone so she asked for volunteers to help today. I offered to help. I am so happy I did because I have found your blog. You do beautiful applique and make lovely quilts. Thanks for sharing ... :) Pat @ Life in the Scrapatch

    Hi I am coming by from the party-your linky parties look like fun. I have never made a hexie in my life-lol but I am going to soon-as I bought a glass template from Val
    I live in the woods with the wildlife in the ozarks of Missouri-beautiful country and we live fairly close to several state parks here-a trout park-Bennett Springs, and HaHaTonka which is great for hiking.

    Hello Angie- visiting from gyb. Fabric and books- sounds wonderful. I used to quilt before I became a mother. After our daughter came along I sewed for her and enjoyed making dresses, pantalettes, costumes, and jumpers. Now that she is in college I need to do something with my small fabric stash other than little gifts- I need to practice on my embroidery machine too! I tend to get caught up in scrapbooking, gardening, reading and baking and let sewing sit on the back burner. You have a nice blog- love the quilt party link up.

    Oh dear, I think we are most certainly kindred spirits Angie! I love many crafts as you know from visiting my blog but applique is one of my favorite quilting techniques... and The Fat Quarter Shop, well, one need not say more! :D I am certainly not going to lose you now that I have found you through Vicki's party! :D I'm your newest follower!

    Thank you for visiting my blog through the GYB party! Lovely to meet you too, but I won't enter your giveaway as I can't sew anymore since the stroke, and I never could quilt! It IS an amazing talent, though :) Gentle Sunday Blessings x
