Winner of Quilt books and stuff......

hey everyone...Thanks for the interest in the Quilting Books...I finally have a few minutes to blog and announce a winner! The winner is Needled Mom! I will mail them out the end of the week......
I have received in the mail several cool things, just think I will share....Postcards from the Bird postcard swap put on by Roc, A Halloween Atc from Carmen,( from the witch swap hosted by Missy) and The Enchanted Ornament Swap for this month from Courtney...(this month is owls...)












I am working on owl ornaments for Courtney in return, a mini quilt in reds and A Halloween doll dress for my Blythe Doll. I am jumping around a lot and I am not sure why. I am usually gung ho on something until it is finished. Just busy I guess...
I now am thirteen pounds down and I am in third place in our Biggest Loser contest at work. It ends November twenty second. I am hoping to win a trip somewhere, we will see....I am still plugging away...it is hard now, those last ten pounds always are. Happy Halloween! (which is celebrated this year in Utah on Saturday....just a weird bit of Utah trivia)

The owls are wonderful too. I have always had a soft spot for owls.
