    Congratulations! I didn't realise you had only been blogging a year. Yr blog is by no means amateur or beginner looking. I have wanted to begin a blog for a while but am too cautious to take the plunge. I think it will be too time consuming to add to my working 3 days and having three kids. But I do like to share what I'm working on. Thank you for doing so and good luck with yr 2013 goals.

Update This Giveaway is closed! And the winner is ... #105 gpc March 5, 2014 at 12:13 PM I follow your blog! :) Think Ruffles Blog Hop Welcome to "In The Boon Docks" and Day 1 of the "Think Ruffles Blog Hop"! My name is Lisa and I am so happy you are here today to see my quilt with ruffles!

Then I saw a quilt in a magazine with what looked like ruffles! I kind of browsed through the issue of Quilt-it today , March/April 2014 issue and left it in my rocking chair and went to work. The second time I read the "Garden Path" pattern by Ann Baxter, (I had already made the quilt), it read "ruching", you don'
