2 years? For reals??!

Holy wow. On a total lark this morning, I had the urge to go check the date that I posted for the first time here on my blog. And you know what? It was on April 12th, 2008. Two years ago YESTERDAY!! Kinda weird that I felt that need to check, huh? And yep, that quilt there on the left is from my 2nd ever blog post.

Although I hate that I missed the actual day, I still think it's worth celebrating. And you all know how we celebrate things here in blogland, don't you?

Yep, with a giveaway!! And I've been thinking it's high time for a giveaway around these parts anyway. It's been a while.

But NOT YET.

First, quite frankly, because I haven't even thought about what I could give away. But also because there are a TON of great giveaways going on right now. Julie, Ryan, Emily, Vanessa, Jackie, and Kelly are just a few bloggers that are currently running some awesome giveways. Julie even rounded up some others and you can see the full list here. Check them out!

So I can afford to wait a bit. I know for sure that I'll make something original and homemade as my giveaway prize. Knowing me, I'll probably throw in some fabrics. And some other goodies, too.

(Warning -- shameless solicitation ahead.)

Want to help me celebrate? I'm happily accepting birthday gifts -- not to keep, but to give away to my readers! I'd love it if you'd let me give away something of yours, too.

• Crafters -- want to offer something homemade, or a fabric bundle from your stash?
• Etsy shop owners -- care to donate something from your shop, or a gift certificate?
• Longarm quilters -- I'd love to offer your services as a giveaway prize.
• Blog designers & service providers -- bloggers LOVE a makeover!
  
• Designers -- have a new or upcoming line that you'd like to share with a lucky winner?
• Fabric shops -- you KNOW that items from your stores and/or gift certificates are wildly popular items!
• Fabric manufacturers -- ditto to the above.

So if you're interested in bringing something to the party, please let me know. I can be reached at adamsjohnq@gmail.com.

Have a great day!
