Can I Get A Whoop Whoop? Time to Share the Traveling Stash!!


Hey, y'all!!

 I'm feeling rather southern today - you'll never believe what I saw today...  A lady selling live hens out of the back of her car in the Target parking lot!  Only in the south....

 And it's Whoop Whoop Friday again!  Are you ready to get your whoop on?  I've got something for you today that will have one of you whooping next week - - - it's time for - - - 


THE TRAVELING STASH!

Yes, that's right - you could be the next recipient of this box full of goodies!  (That is, if you live in the US - unfortunately it's a bit too heavy to send elsewhere!)  

Take a look at the great stuff in this box...


Here's what I left of the original contents..


Here are the fabrics I added - a yard or nearly so of each of these - two great Ikea prints, two boy prints, a piece of Dream On, and a two-sided quilted piece.


I also put in some cute patterns that someone might love!


And here's what I took out - some nice fabrics and a hexie template!

There's a lot of fabric in this box - it is absolutely jam packed into a large flat rate Priority Mail box.  

To put your name in the drawing, just leave a comment below.  You can earn extra entries by linking up for Whoop Whoop Friday, by letting me know you are a follower, and for spreading the word via your blog or other social networking platform.  Please leave a separate comment for each entry!  I'll draw a winner next Thursday night and announce it on October 11th, in next Friday's whoop whoop post.

*&*&*&*&*&*&*

And now I want to share a big whoop whoop - look what the newest members of our quilt ministry did!


Their very first quilt tops!!  I think they're hooked - look at those big smiles!

We've got another big group accomplishment this week, but I think I'll wait until next week to share that one...

*&*&*&*&*&*&*

And now it's your turn!

What's made you dance the happy dance this week?

Share - we want to dance along - - -

And everyone knows it's more fun to dance with friends!

The party will remain open until Thursday midnight...

Be there or be square!

Hugs!

Sarah

    I just love the idea of the traveling stash! Although I use hand dyes and batiks is my personal quilts, I use plenty of other fabric in the quilts I make for chemo patients. You can see it in my blog, artinsearch.blogspot.com. I longtime to have a church wide ministry with help like you. So far, it is just me. I will put your link on my blog.
