since so many of you were so kind to say some really nice things about my tutorial over at the moda bake shop, i in turn want to do something for you guys. here's a giveaway of two lovely yummy honey buns. they are "sweet" (the one i used on my rag rug tutorial) and "swanky" that just screams spring. now don't expect a giveaway every single time or anything, i'm not made out of money,so you might want to get your chance now!
*******
here are the rules:
1) leave me a comment (could be anything like "hey i think you are pretty darn cool" or "i want that" really you can't go wrong)
*
2) if you want a second entry link to my post with this picture on your blog, then come back and let me know you linked it.
*
3)make sure there's a link back to your blog (or an email address) so if you win i have some way of contacting you!
*
4) i will pick a winner this THURSDAY the 5th at 10 am (mountain standard time)
***************
so there you have it, two tries to get you some yummy honey buns. i'll be over here working on some "new stuff" all week long (can't wait to show you next week). and periodically i'll try to check you guys out...and i'll see you on thursday with a winner!
******
edited tuesday march 3 before the kids go to school: holy shmoly!!! took a day off of blogging to work on things with all the intentions of checking out everyone who left me a comment today...uh...you guys are making that a little hard seeing that there are not enough hours in the day and i'm not willing to leave a permanent imprint of my butt on my computer chair! i'll do my best to check out the links! THANK YOU ALL FOR PLAYING! how fun! see you thursday.
okay i'm closing down the giveaway @ 9 am so that i have an hour to finish up the last bit of counting and "microsoft wording" the rest of the contestants i'll be back at 10.

I absolutely loved that you did a rag rug tutorial. I have loved them forever and thought they had to be hard. Now I can work on something while watching t.v. with the hubby ... since he says I ignore him in favor of my sewing machine! I would love, love, love to win something so cool as these honey buns from an even cooler quilter!
Great tutorial and what a wonderful giveaway. Count me in.
I have sewn forever, but am just learning all about quilting. I am so excited that you and others have these great tutorials and blogs that I can visit. Really helps me to learn. Thank you for being you!!
I'd love to have one of these and try the rug tutorial! -- Michele
What a gorgeous giveaway! And a beautiful blog you have there.

Just coming to life after a long Chronic Fatigue Syndrome relapse and a couple of hand surgeries and finding all of these wonderful places on the web. Am totally new to the "blogosphere." And a chance to win fabric, too! I need it, I need it. Comments may be good for the soul, but so is fabric fondling. Thanks.
I found you for the bandana skirt tutorial, but I am staying for the rest. I love it all!

What a stylish girl you are! Those colors really POP. Need I mention that we share the same MODAus Operandi :) OK I just plain love MODA & I won't lie if I get my hands on those sticky delicious honey buns I will piece them into a quilt, quilt, quilt.... because I am just plain addicted to quilting (no rehad won't help! & I won't GO! you can't make me!). Is it bad that I even wake up to think about it at night.PLEASE don't tell my husband he isn't the honeybun I dream of anymore...You have to help me...after all your tutorials are actually making my quilting problem much much worse....
Wow - what alot of comments - you will never read them all! I have just started my blog so as yet don't know how to add your pic to min :-( but I shall get there!
Lovely blog, I had a great laugh at your Mum and her 'folding computer', mine is like that too.

I would love to win some lovely yummy honey buns. They would really be a welcome spring "eye candy" after this long cold winter.
cool site. I've never won a giveaway either.
With 753 comments already submitted, chances are slim, but had to give it a try anyway!
a great giveaway. You have some gret ideas.
Hi
I just came across your blog tonight..Wow it's wednesday night the night before the giveaway. I would love it if you added my name to your giveaway. Can't wait to read your blog now.
Have a wonderful Day.

I just found your blog and I 'm totally inspired. So much I want to do! I especially love your skirt out of the second hand sheets. Adorable!
Well I am going to be completely honest - I really want that fabric - Pick Me Pick Me :))
Thanks for a great giveaway regardless.
Fiona
Those are some yummy looking honey buns that look more like hard rock candy. Love the colors. I've not visited your blog before but I love your "About me" bio. You sound very "down to earth" and fun! :-) There are a lot of comments here but my son always says it only takes one chance to win mom, so here's my chance. Would love to win!! Thanks for such a generous giveaway. Oh, and my great grandma used to make braided rugs and one day I will, too!
Thank you so much for this generous giveaway and lovely rug tutorial, Vanessa. Best wishes, Jan
Hey! I think you're pretty darn cool....and I really do want that!! hee hee I was sent over from "Kathy's" blog, and just couldn't resist because Moda fabrics are just my FAVORITE!
Love these! You are way cool!
I saw this from nicoles blog at our cozy nest, I just might be the last entry, that must be lucky.
I do remember admiring your braided rug on the bakeshop!
I don't believe I stand a chance to win your gorgeous honey buns, Wow- that sounds weird - but count me in. Love your blog! Take care.
I have crafty ideas about your cool swank stuff!
Not only are you cool but you made me use 1/2 box of tissues laughing so hard, omg, you are funny girl! And very talented too. Congrats on the Moda deal, Elaine
767 (now 768) comments??? HOLY CRAP!
Tha's a LOT of comments.. I guess we all REALLY WANT THESE...and yep, we all think you're cool too!
lol...
nice of you to do a give away!
Just discovered your blog and I like it! guess I'm a little late to part in this give-away...
But I'm happy to have found you!
If you want, check out mine...
Many dutch greetings, heleen
Vanessa, this is brilliant - please enter me into the pool! I have never tried a fabric bun of any kind, nor jelly rolls, so this would be just the right time to give it a try!!
kvinta dot lingiuan at gmail dot com
The odds are looking pretty slim, but those beautiful bright rolls of fabric are just too tempting not to try!
Would love to win LOL - gorgeous fabric!
OH! I do believe those buns want to fly over to me in Hawaii! Thanks for entering me in your giveaway!
Leona
Nothing like a last minute entry - yes you are cool and I would just love to win your giveaway!!!!
Whippee and phew- I made it into your contest! Love your blog :)
Wow, there are a lot of comments already. But it is worth a shot. I have never actually used Moda Fabric (that I am aware off anyway) but I hear it's the best and I love the colors and patterns. Also the bake shop is pretty cool!
I love that rug and am definitely going to make one for my office! Thanks for the great tutorial!!
I found your blog thru a friend's blog. I'd love to win the jelly rolls.
virginiakopfinger@centurytel.net
Love your blog, it's in my bookmarks now! And i would be very, very pleased to win the jelly rolls!
I was looking for a way to email you rather than post a comment. I commented and linked to your giveaway, bu I noticed you removed my comments and wondered why? Thanks.
I don't understand about the link for the second entry, but I'll give it a try.
virginiakopfinger@centurytel.net
Gorgeous fabrics, love to own some.
