This Bloghop starts on Sunday, August 26th and will run thru Monday, Sept 3rd.

What are you giving away, you ask?
Well since I just posted my first tutorial yesterday on my Very Merry Christmas Pillow, I thought you might like the chance to win some of that cute fabric and Pearle Cotton, so you could make your own pillow.
Seems like a pretty good deal, free instructions, free fabric and embroidery threads, you just need to provide the sewing machine and needle!
So here's what is included in my giveaway:
These are rough fat eighths (largest 10 x 22 and smallest 5 x22) of 7 different fabrics - 5 of Aneela Hoey Cherry Christmas by Moda along with Kona white and med grey. Plus 5 skeins of coordinating embroidery thread for handstitching. This will be plenty to make your pillow top (or what ever little fun project you have in mind). Sound good? This giveaway is open to all worldwide!
To enter, starting tomorrow, go to:

My favorite teacher was Mr. Alexander - a high school science teacher. He challenged us to be our best and made us work harder than any other teacher at the school - such a valuable lesson for a high-schooler to see what she is truly capable of accompleshing. Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite teacher was Mr. Fujita. He was my math teacher. When his daughter was little, she would come to school every once and a while and hoard his chalk. He never got mad. He just kept extra boxes stashed so she'd have her pile and he could still teach.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite teacher was Ms. McDougal. She taught English, and her lectures were amazing! She made mandatory reading exciting, which, let's face it, can be difficult, especially when you're talking The Grapes of Wrath with 11th graders. Most importantly of all, she explained to me just how cool the English language can be and how important literature is to our culture. Because of her, I got my degree in English/Creative Writing, and I'm so glad I did. :)
ReplyDeleteOh it is so longggggggggggggggggggggg ago that I was at school.

ReplyDeleteMy favourite teacher was called Miss Richards and since I can still remember her name after 40 years, you can tell she had an impact. I had just started a new school in a new country at the age of 6 and she couldn't have helped me more to settle in. She also encouraged me to take part in the talent eisteddfod and I got second place for singing and first place for poetry reading.
ReplyDeletePS - you can find me at Bits 'n Bobs

ReplyDeleteMy favorite teacher was my 5th grade math teacher Mrs. Funderburke. She was not well liked as she was rather strict and really didn't tolerate any B.S. I liked her though and she was a fantastic teacher. Call me a teacher's pet I guess, but she liked me as I was her best student, and I really respected her.
ReplyDeleteOhh Frau Engel - first and second grade ... the only subject I didn't like those two years was swimming - she didn't teach that one.

ReplyDeleteLOVE the prize pack!! Thank you for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteI had SO many wonderful teachers! One of my most favorite is my fourth grade teacher, Mrs. C. She made school SO much fun! We had music every day, and she read to us-- "Charlotte's Web", "Little Britches",... But one of the things that I loved about her the most was that she had the most amazing craft lessons-- we made paper mache' (sp?) Easter Rabbits, African Masks, and globes of the earth. For one of our Science lessons, we made a volcano -- and I got to light it! :-) We made a pinata and everyone brought candy to fill it with... such amazing memories of that year... I need to send Mrs. C a card to tell her how much I loved her class..... Thanks for reminding me of that wonderful year!

ReplyDeleteI think I would have to say Miss Moss in grade 1.
ReplyDeleteFavorite teachers were my high-school A.P. English teachers, Mr. Jones and Mr. Mayo. They were just decent adults without trying too to be hip, and yet able to bridge a "generation gap."
ReplyDeleteFavorite teacher, that is a hard one. It has been a long time since I was in school. I would say, Mr. Swingholm, biography. He gave me lots of secrets about my older brother what he did in school.
ReplyDeleteCan I be a total sap and say my favorite teacher is my husband, who teaches anatomy at our two local colleges? ;) If not, then I'll go with Mr. Anthony, my 9th grade English teacher, because he gave us so much time to read whatever we'd like in his class, and I was a HUGE reader at hte time! :) Thank you for the chance to win such a generous giveaway.
ReplyDeleteMrs. Omdahl. First grade. She was mean.. and made me practice my penmanship. LOL. But, I still remember her today.. And she made us read Little House on the Prairie. Then the show came on TV. It told my parents.. we HAD to watch it.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite teacher or, at least, the first favorite teacher, was Mrs. Esther Lebo. She was my first grade teacher and soothed my tears when I cried because she didn't teach me to read the first day of school!

Hmmm I didn't have a lot of those. In grade 10 in high school I was a bit of a difficult kid. I started the year with an English teacher who was an older spinster woman. The first day in the class she called me out of the room and told me that she knew about me and that I had better not act up in her class. I was hurt and insulted and I went to the principal and complained that she was not even giving me a chance. She apologised the next day and admitted she had been wrong. We got along very well and I enjoyed her class. She loved books, which I did as well, so we had something to share.
ReplyDeleteWow....went to lots of different schools (in Foster Care long while)....only truly remember my 1st Grade teacher. Mrs. Petite. She was like a Grandma....treated me so nice....guess that's why I remember her over all these years.
ReplyDeleteThanks for chance to win your your Drawing! :)
My two favorite teachers were my dad - an elementary school teacher - and my mom - a music teacher! We have a bunch of other teachers in my extended family, and I love them all, too!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite teacher was Mrs. Brittain in first grade! She loved teaching and kept my attention and it is because of her enthusiasm that I love to read. I was also fortunate to have her move into our neighborhood and lived only three houses from us. I would frequently go visit her. Thank you for the chance to win!
ReplyDeletei loved my second grade teacher- she did this doodle on all our papers and her classroom that was a big-nosed smiley face, and i loved to see them on my spelling tests! i still know how to make them too.
ReplyDeleteI'm originally from Denmark and my favorite teacher was at different times my english, german and drama teacher. He was awesome, inbetween classes he'd trade computer games with the boys (and me), in drama class he was the best, we had to perform Cinderella at prom night (where the whole school attends) well the evil step mom got sick that morning, so my drama teacher had to play her role, so just imagine a guy with dark hair, a mustache and Hmm hairy legs in a purple pleated skirt, playing the step mom.... it ended up being hilarious! plus he was ad libbing everything!! I'm friends with him in FB and still send him Christmas cards every year.
ReplyDeleteFavorite sewing teacher was my aunt who started me on the road to loving & using fabrics!!

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely give away. My favorite teacher was grade 3 Mrs. Dennis. She love to play the piano and sing. She was fun, kind and instilled in me a love for books.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite teacher was my French teacher Miss Stewart in grade 9. She must have made a deep impression because I can't remember the names of any other teacher in high school. (But that was over 50 years ago!)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite teacher was my first grade teacher Mrs. Fosdick. She was a tiny little lady with a soft voice who loved children and never yelled at them. A perfect first grade teacher to have.

I had lots of favorites. I suppose if I had to pick one, she was my 3rd grade teacher Mrs. Boner.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite teacher was my 6th grade teacher. Ms. Stepanik came to my home 1-2 times a week for three months after school. I had been in a major car accident and she made sure I kept up with the class until I was able to return.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite was my 5th grade teacher Mrs Tollefson. She was full of energy, demanded our attention and respect, and we shared the same birth day in July. She'd call me every summer on my birthday and wish me a happy day!
ReplyDeleteMrs Zutavern, she said I was smart, the nicest thing a teacher has ever said to me.

ReplyDeleteMr.Wallace, he always hand wrote a message on my computer generated report card.
ReplyDeleteMr. Johnston(7th) because he let us work at our own speed...something that was not common way back when. Thanks to him, the class was way ahead of the other 7th grade classes. It certainly took the boring out of school!
