Quilter's Blog Hop Party!

Quilter's Blog Hop Party with Give-AwaysWelcome quilters, fabric-addicts, and friends.

I'm very excited to be participating in this week's Blog Hop Party and hope you visit everyone's blogs!  Click on the picture to see the list of participants in this year's party.


This is the first year I am participating with a Give-Away: a Batik charm pack could be yours! 

There are two ways to enter, with up-to two entries available per person:

1.  Follow this blog using the "join this site" button on the right side of the page, and leave a comment on this post saying that you have.  This will get you one entry.

2.  "Like" my Facebook page Balanced Needles Knitting & Quilting, and leave a comment on this post saying that you have.  This will also get you one entry.

The draw will be made at 12 noon (CST) on March 15.  The winner will be announced in a new post that day, and will be asked to contact me with mailing details at that time.

Thanks for stopping by, and good luck!
