Cottage Charm Giveaway Day 2008, Results
NOTE: Thank you so much everyone for your kind words and wishes while I was ill. As it turns out, I had gotten a secondary infection after a cold and ended up with a sinus infection and bronchitis. But I'm on the mend now and will be back to posting regularly next week! ~Angela

Hi Angela. I am amazed that you had so many entries in the giveaway! Lucky Sandra.
I am having a front porch party. I'm not sure if you have a porch or a deck but I'd love if you'd stop by my blog when you have a chance and see what it's all about.
Hope you're having a great weekend so far. Hugs, Rhondi

Congratulations to Sandra! What a wonderful quilt to enjoy. I'm glad you're feeling better, Angela, and I hope to see you back in full swing soon. We've missed you. I've been wondering how your new yard plans and dreams are coming along but now that I know you've been ill I'm sure they aren't where you had hoped they would be. Take care of yourself and enjoy our pretty days. When we have them! ~Adrienne~

Lucky Sandra. Thanks Angela for the pictures of your drawing too. I'm going to do a giveaway soon too and I've been wondering how to actually conduct a drawing.
Hope you have a great week.

Well poo - I really wanted to win this ...
Glad you are on the mend.
If you have a minute - stop by my blog and see the winner of the Farm Logo contest. Interesting note - you would not believe how many e-mails I received from designers telling me that I would not get what I wanted via a contest that only paid $100.00 (indicating that it cost a lot more)..and then offering to "help" me after the contest... Very happy to prove them wrong!!!

Wow Angela, 450 comments!!!! Lucky Sandra for winning that lovely quilt. The Bliss team is quite miffed that they didn't win it. I think they forgot they already have 2 quilts. Cats!

Sorry to hear you were sick. Hope you are now back on the mend!
Remember a few months ago when I asked for advice on a fence? Well we have been building a custom fence for our front garden. Stop by and see. It should all come together in the next 2 weeks as the local Garden Tour is coming through then!

glad to hear you are okay Angela, I was getting worried!! I used to get sinus infections all the time until I gave up dairy!! It really works you should try it for awhile just to clean out your system. I had to do it for 3 years and I am okay now, but when I lived in Brooklyn it was awful! These days its just the pollen that bothers me and no more of those horrible headaches!

Dear Angela!
I hope you are feeling better. I have also been ill...because of stress I have got hypothyreosis - therefore I haven´t been here for a very long time. Now I have got medication but it will take a while until it´s ok again.
All my love - Annie

Hey Angela...I keep popping in because I've been a little worried about you. Is everything ok? I understand though, about taking much needed computer breaks...I was like that myself over the winter! Good for a body, I believe. Hope all is well!

Hi Angela,
This is my first comment on your blog. I, too, have been worried and have been sending you mental get well wishes all last.
Love your blog - it's one of my favorites. I'm a recent transplant from Oregon to Alabama, so it's been fun following your new home journey.

Angela,
Where are you? I met you at a local quilt shop where I used to work. You were long arming an adorable quilt for your son. It was you who introduced me to the world of blogging. I even have one of my own now. I miss reading your blog. You've been an inspiration! Hope all is well.

Send up a flair so we all know you're OK.
Hope all is well and you're merely taking a much needed blogging break.
