Winner of my Mystery Giveaway!

It's finally time to reveal where it is
 in the world that I have been,
but before I do I want to thank all of you
 for making this so fun and
 for entering my
"MYSTERY GIVEAWAY"!


~ALOHA~
 from the
"BIG ISLAND of HAWAII"!
I  have loved reading
 all of your guesses and comments!
I feel as though I have made
 a whole new world of friends.
That is my bonus
 for having this blog giveaway.
You all are so kind and sweet!
There is one sad thing about all this though
and that is that I wanted you all to win!
Since that isn't possible, well...
we better get on with the drawing.

All of the names are in this cute
Hawaiian basket with accordion netting. 



Just perfect for rolling the names over and over
to mix them all around. Don't ya think!



My Prince Charming is now ready
 to draw the winner!



 The winner is...
to my surprise!?!, my dear friend...



 Congratulations Judi!
Your surprise is 
bits and pieces of Hawaii...



featuring...
a little hand quilted purse,
a leather shoe pincushion,
a thimble full of fabric lapel pin,
a pocket tape measure
from Quilt Passions quiltshop,
a Hawaiian quilter doll
perfect for holding your quilting needles,
the latest pattern by Barbara Bieraugel
who is a local Hawaiian designer, 
four fat quarters to help you get started
on your new Hawaiian quilt,
and of course to help you stay focused...
a little chocolate covered macadamia nuts
with rice crisp known in Hawaii as
Kona Krunch!
I hope you enjoy!!!

A special thanks again to everyone
 and be sure to come around again soon
because this week I will be posting pictures of
"My favorite things of Hawaii"! 
This will include a tour
of two of the Island's quiltshops,
gorgeous sunsets, Hawaiian fruits and flowers, 
Farmer's markets, and Waikoloa Villiage.
I hope you'll join me!
HUGS,
Rae Ann

I can't believe it! I WON!! Can you hear me yelling yippee?!! Thank you, thank you, I can hardly wait to pet all my prizes. (I wish you could see the smile on my face, it hasn't moved since I read your post!) I feel so lucky. Thank you my dear friend and I can't wait to hear all about your trip. It was rainy and cold the entire time you were gone, so your timing was perfect to leave town.

Congratulations to the lucky winner and yes I have been there in 1999 with my hubbie who is now gone and we had a great time. I remember that there are stores with no glass in their windows. The weather is out of this world.
