Lucky number giveaway....

Lets have a little fun...

Is everyone ready for a carolinastitcher giveaway????? I tell ya, I am humbled and amazed that I have over 900 followers.... When I began this journey in May 2009, I was reluctant to take the leap into the world of blogging.... Today, I cannot imagine my life without it... Friends, inspirational posts by so many if you and many a project are reflective of nearly four years of blogging...

Which brings me to this little giveaway... For me, 29 would be my lucky number.... Both of my children were born on the 29th of the month.. My mother was born on Nov 29, 1929... If you add all the digits of my birthday, they total 29.... Tell me what your lucky number is by leaving a comment on this post if you'd like to be considered in my giveaway for this.....




...its a small accessory size pouch, a fat qtr of Weeks 35 ct Cappacino linen and a few more goodies...




I had a little fun with this pouch adding some special hand embroidery.... And hand dyed rick rack...



I will be drawing a name at random on Sunday, March 17...

Hope you enjoy the rest of your week!!

Faye

What fun!! My lucky number/favorite number is 22. For no other reason than it was the football jersey number of my very first ever boyfriend in 8th grade (that would be in 1968!). What a cute little pouch!

Jackie's Stitches said...

Happy 900 and many more! My favorite number is 21 but for not any special reason-certainly nothing as fascinating as yours with all the 29 links!

P.J. said...

My lucky number is 13; I met my husband on Friday the 13th, we got married on April 13th and we wish each other a happy Anniversary every 13th of the month. We try to beat each other to be the first to say it. Sometimes it has been at 1 in the morning and sometimes we forget until we get to work. We've been married 13 years and tomorrow is the 13th! Hehehehe!

Happy Blogging success!! Keep on stitching.

Deb said...

I'd love to be entered! It is no wonder that you have 900 followers. Your blog is always wonderful to come to with all your stitching and finishes. My lucky number seems to be 31 for whatever reason!!

stitchinpeanut said...

I have never been very lucky... But I guess the number 4 would be special. My birthday is aug 4. And my daughter was born on the same day!

I LOVE this ill blue bag... And wow... I was happy with near 40 followers... How fun!!!!

Thank you for having this.

My lucky number has always been 4. I don't know why. Your little pouch is so cute. I hope 4 is lucky for me for the drawing.

Thanks

Linda said...

What a great giveaway Faye. My favorite numbers 9, 19, and 29. No real reason. I was born 9 -1949, my daughter was born in Sept. and I married the love of my life in Sept. '92. Lotto and bingo numbers don't have a 92 so I use 29.

Linda

connie said...

Amy said...

My lucky number is 10. Now, lets see how lucky it is on this giveaway! :) Amy from Oklahoma

Ellen said...

Congrats on the 900 followers! That is very impressive!

28 is our lucky number.
My husband's birthday is September 28.
We got married December 28.
Three years later our daughter was born on January 28.
She was baptized on April 28.
When she chose August 28 as her wedding date, my husband thought that was a good omen.

The few times we've bought lottery tickets, we've picked 28 as one of the numbers. However our lucky #28 has never appeared on any of the tickets we've bought.

Monica said...

I really enjoy your blog. According to numerology, my lucky number is suppose to be 5. Not so sure about that but, anyway,the pouch is very sweet. I love that fabric!

moosecraft said...

Mine lucky # is 13. That was my prep room # when I went in for major surgery a few years back... and I made it out alive! lol! Of course... my lucky # could change to 80 if you pick me to win your giveaway! ;-) There were so many "must stitch" designs released at Market... I don't know where to start! I notice a Nan Lewis design in that last pic... beautiful stuff! :-) Happy Spring to you!

Stacy said...

No real lucky number, but I believe 40 must be it in that I have been married to a wonderful man, blessed with three grown children and three lovely grandsons over the course of 40 years!

Peggy Lee said...

Oh what fun!!
My favorite number is 14. It was a pre-requisite to have a favorite # to join an all girls club when I was about 5 years old. It stuck with me. When my son was in Kindergarten his pencil cup had #7 on it. So he is half of me. It also stuck!

dixiesamplar said...
