Cutie Pinwheel Giveaway!


It's happened again!
 I have reached another mile marker
in my journey of blogging!

 I now have 200 readers!!!

I know... that is nothing for some of you out there that have three times that or more... but for me... a simple little blogger... it is quite a bunch. I honestly thought that I might be lucky to have 60 plus followers by now... so this is very exciting!

Well... because I love to celebrate...

I figured that this is a reason to have another

Cutie Pinwheel
"GIVEAWAY!"

I have decided to make this quite simple.
To enter all you have to do is...

1. Leave me a comment telling me what you love about
 pinwheels or my Cutie Pinwheel blog!

2. Two more points for being or becoming a follower.
Make sure you tell me in your comment! 

 3. Three EXTRA points for telling others on your blog 
about the giveaway and posting my cutie pinwheels
above... somewhere in your post.
Let me know!

 This means you could have 6 chances to win!

Now... before I

"Whirl Away"

to get some quilting done... I just have to say to you all...
my
BBFF
(Blogging Buddie Friends Forever)
"Thanks"
for making my blogging experience
So FUN!

Oh... and since I love surprises... the little gift in the middle of the pinwheels is only a small "thank you" that goes with the "REAL SURPRISE" which will be announced at the same time the winner is... on June 7th!
Giveaway ends on Saturday... June 5th... so hurry along and let's chat about
"Cutie Pinweels!"

Congratulations on your blogging milestone...very special! I follow your blog because it is fresh & fun & you do such pretty work...inspiring!

GerryART said...

Pinwheels certainly give lots of action/interest to a quilt pattern - just as your Cutie Pinwheel blog does to blogland. Action and interest get it everytime.
I've been one of your Followers for a while
Would love to have a chance to win.
Hugs & ♥♥♥s,
Gerry

Lori Holt said...

Rae ann...i love your blog because you are the blogger! (and we like the same things)...and we are BBFF's..

Lynne (Lily's Quilts) said...

OK, I will be honest and say that what I love about your blog is that your genuinely lovely personality shines through - you have been a real star and support to me since I started blogging and that's what I get from your blog.

And you know I'm a follower but do I have to leave an extra ppost or two to say that? I guess not!

RaisinCookies said...

Congrats on hitting 200! I have ... a lot fewer than that. :) I've become a follower (why didn't I do this before? For shame!), and blogged about the giveaway as well.

Why do I like pinwheels? They are adorable, for one thing. Also, they are slightly out of the scope of my abilities at the moment, so they are something to aspire to.

Synnove said...

Wow, 200 followers, that's a lot! Congratulations.
I like pinwheels because they are easy to sew, and they make beautiful quilts!
And I love your blog because you use colours and fabrics that are sooo "me". I find a lot of inspiration here:-)

Synnove said...

I'm a follower:-)

Shirley said...

You are such a tease Rae Ann, now I have to leave a comment in the hope of winning to see what the surprise is. I have just made a load of pinwheels to add a border in our group's round robin challenge. I was so pleased with it that parting with it was very hard. You can see it on http://wendyswistfulquilts.blogspot.com/
I have not put the pics on my blog yet. Congratulations on reaching out to 200 people.
Shirley.

Doina said...

I love pinwheels because they are so easy yet look so effective, and they are just so much darn FUN! And I love your blog because it is full of so much color and I love your show and tell! Your follower thingy is broken at the moment, it keeps telling me it can't handle my request, but I will come back later and try again.

Rafael's Mum said...

You're so lucky!! 200 readers is a great accomplishment. I, too am following, and I have posted about your giveaway also. Although, I must say, I hate to tell anyone so I can have a better chance!! Thank you.

Pat said...

I love your blog because of your personality....bright and cheer AND caring!!! As for pinwheels...how could anyone NOT love pinwheels??? They bring back memories of carefree days at parades and community fairs, where being allowed to choose a pinwheel was part of the fun. I can recall blowing and blowing on my pinwheel if it wasn't windy and also waving it back and forth during parades!!! What happy, carefree days those were when the biggest worry was how to make my pinwheel move. LOL Congrats on 200 followers. I noticed I have that now, too..so I have to get out and pick a prize to give away soon on my blog!

Unknown said...

Congratulations, RaeAnn!! You know you have an awesome blog and people are going to be flocking from everywhere on the WWW!! So glad you reached 200, but you know there are probably many more that are just lurking about. You know that I am a follower and will continue to come read about your journeys! As they say, "keep on keepin on!!"

Jenny said...

Tricia said...

I'm so glad I stumbled on your blog! I was looking at the Stash Manicure blog the other day and becoming inspired. We moved a few years ago and I went from being the President of a small quilt guild to never quilting! I was looking at your quilt guild pictures here on your blog and realizing just how much I missed it. I did actually pull out some fabric from my stash on Monday. Hopefully I'll have time today to cut it out. (Sorry... it doesn't have any pinwheels! LOL!)

I'm a new follower & I posted your giveaway on my blog as well.

Cheri C. said...

I love pinwheels because I can't make them "yet" but I think they are beautiful and show the colors off in a clean crisp way. I like to see the whole color and the neutral just sets off the color and doesn't destract... only enhances. I just found you from another blog and will now become a follower... looks like all the smart people have already found you :) Thanks for the chance to win.

Stitched With Prayer said...

Rae Ann, As for what I love about pinwheels, well...they are just so fun to make and the patterns and designs you can make with them are endless. Now your blog, ah, it's a great place to wander and explore. I especially love the pictures from your meetings. Seeing all the quilts and it looks like everyone is always having so much fun. I really need to join a guild!!! My sis in law is the president of her guild in Oregon and she is always telling me about the fun they have. Ah...but I digress (sorry*). I really enjoy too that you show a variety of fun and interesting things along with all the quilting topics. You just fit it all together so that it is a pleasure to visit. Then of course I'm in Utah too...the land of "if you don't like the weather wait 5 minutes or drive 5 miles and it will change"... Thanks so much for a chance in this giveaway, OH, I'm also a follower. Now, I'm off to do some quilting myself. Good Luck to Everyone!!!

Congrats on 200 followers! I only dream of that many. I came over from Stash Manicure (which I love, btw!) to see your blog and fell in love. I love your love for 30's fabrics. I have 2 quilt tops that my Granny pieced that are made with genuine 30's fabrics, and I'm just waiting to get a little more experience under my belt to quilt them - hence my love of 30's fabrics too, although I'm just a beginning quilter.

Congratulations! You truly have a delightful blog.

I have always love pinwheels. I enjoy them in all color palettes, but I must say I'm partial to bright colored pinwheels on white fabric. They just bring back memories of quilts my grandmother would make!

Rae Ann,
You make beautiful quilts and I remember seeing photos of them on another blogger's post ( a group of women that you quilt with perhaps)
As for pinwheels they are gorgeous but I have to push myself to quilt with a pinwheel design because I get tired of making pinwheels real fast..
I am sure you will have lots of visitors.
I also have become a follower.
Hope you will drop my blog too-
Regards from a Western Canadian Quilter,
Anna

Rae Ann, my favorite thing about your blog is you -- how sweet and kind and fun you are, full of ideas and excited about quilting. And I love pinwheels too! All of them!

I'm not sure if you want separate comments so I'll just do it all in one and check back. I'm adding a note here to say I've been a follower for a while now and it is always fun here!

Congratulations! What I love about pinwheels is that they are easy to make but you can do so many things with them to dress them out and take them out on the town.

Congratulations! Your blog is so fun to read and I have missed reading it for the last 3 weeks. I have a lot to catch up on. Pinwheels are one of my most favorite blocks I think because they remind me of childhood when I had a pinwheel and would attach it to my bike and watch it blow in the wind.
