Apology and travel stash winner!

I am VERY sorry I did not post the winner to the traveling stash on Monday (or the rest of this week).  I went out of town, and knew I was coming back on Monday and thought I would have plenty of time to post, which I would have, if I would not have gotten sick!  Today has been the first day I finally feel human again (and can breathe through my nose!).

So without further ado, the winner of the traveling (leap year stash) is :

Handmade by Rebeckah!!!!

Congratulations!

School has gotten busy and I haven't been able to sew.  But I did get some sewing time in tonight, so expect some posts in the coming week with progress on projects!

Leap year stash

So I won a traveling stash at the beginning of April.  And then AGAIN now!! It's so cool!  I'm not sure where that luck came from!  This one is a little different, because it's the leap year box.  Which means that it is only shipped once a month!  I won this one from Books, Hooks, Sticks, etc. 

Here are the rules and guidelines:

RULES:

1. Be an active blogger. Post about receiving and the giveaway on your blog in a timely manner.
2. There is a note in the box that logs where the box has been. Please add your info and place the note back in the box.
3. There is a list of Rules and Guidelines in the box. Please read and follow these and return the list to the box.
4. You may take anything you like from the box. Just replace every item with comparable quilt shop quality items equal to the amount taken. See guidelines below.
5. Ship the box to the next person in a reasonable amount of time.
6. Due to the amount of postage shipping is only within the USA.

GUIDELINES:
The definition of a stash is a secret store of valuables. For quilters it's a collection of usable quality products. The stash should contain mostly fabric with a few patterns and/or books and other items.

• FABRIC:     Should be quilt shop quality in new condition. Scraps should only be included if they are cut for adding to a collection and packaged accordingly (i.e. I-Spy squares, postage stamp squares, etc.). There should not be anything under a Fat Quarter unless packaged like this.
• PATTERNS/BOOKS:     Should be in new or gently used condition. They should be kept to a minimum (books are bulky and add weight).
• OTHER ITEMS:     Should be in new or gently used condition. Tools, notions, etc. These items should be packaged if necessary.

IMPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER:

• If you receive a box with anything that is of "poor" condition you should not feel guilty in tossing it out.
• Only put items in the box that you would be proud to own. The box is NOT a dumping place for all your outdated unwanted items.
• Items should be free of smoke and pet hairs.
• You must replace items you take with the same quantity of like-kind items. Replacing more than you take is always welcome.  :)

Here are the pictures from the stash I received!

 Look at all those fun fabrics and patterns!

And even more!! It's all so cool!

If you would like a chance at winning this stash leave me a comment by next MONDAY May 6th!

Right now this is what I took (I might change my mind before I ship it out ;) )

And right now I've added one charm pack.  (You'll have to wait until you get the box to see what else you are getting!)  If you would like to be entered to win this, please leave me a comment telling me where you live!
