It's a Bloghop Party with Giveaways!!

Happy Saturday everyone! And what better way to kick off the weekend then with a giveaway! Michele Foster, aka Mishka, over at The Quilting Gallery is hosting a blog hop with giveaways, how fun is that?! Not just my blog but a whole lotta different blogs and chances to win!



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

There will be nothing to purchase and entry will be simple!! Interested?
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:

http://quiltinggallery.com/quilters-fun/quilters-blog-hop-party/

The list of bloggers participating in the Blog Hop Party will be made available Sunday morning, August 26th, shortly after midnight, Eastern time. Return there to start hopping and entering the give-aways from your fellow quilters.

Since this is the Back to School Blog Hop, to enter, you just need to leave me a comment on your favorite teacher - and why he or she was your favorite. Teachers have such an impact on kids and adults too!

Good Luck!!  Make it a great day!

Ginny

  1. 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!

  2. My 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.

  3. My 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. :)

    I 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!

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!

True I found out later she was not preparing us one bit for future years (aka we never had any homework so 4th grade was stressful!) but I got to do a lot of reading, and she had interesting experiments and playing with worms, and we'd traipse through the neighborhood looking for spider webs so we could spray paint them onto a piece of paper to capture the design!

  116. Mrs. Abigail Gross, Roosevelt Jr. High School, Beloit, Wisconsin - 8th grade math. She saw through my bad attitude and strange ways to the hurt girl underneath, and encouraged me. I wish more people had been able to do that...would have saved me loads of grief before I finally worked things out in my 30's.

  136. Mrs. Murphy, my first grade teacher. I was a bright, nerdy kid who wanted to talk books with the adults not the kids. She would walk with me at recess and let me chatter away. I wonder now, as a mom, did she really listen or just smile and nod?

  141. I have had a couple of teachers that I have loved but I will go with my first teacher. She was my kindergarten (age 4 prior to school) teacher. Her name was Prue and she was wonderful. I would have done anything she asked and I know that she is the reason that I am a kindergarten teacher now. She is the person that instilled a love a learning into my life and she is the reason why I have such positive memories of my first schooling experience.

  164. 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.

  169. I'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.
