Some fat quarters of fun Christmas fabrics (because Christmas is just around the corner), a copy of the October 2008 American Patchwork & Quilting magazine, a bottle of Wild Honeysuckle body cream from Bath & Body Works, some chocolate (of course), and a bag that I made. I signed up for Linda's bag/bucket swap, but I'd never made a bag before so I thought I'd practice and make a few...this was my first attempt, and I think it turned out pretty cute. =) Here is a close up of the bag:
So, to enter the giveaway, please leave a comment (please include your blog address if you have one, so I can check out your blog if I haven't already)...that gets you ONE entry, but if you want THREE more entries, mention this giveaway on your blog...that's it! Make sure you enter before midnight (MST) on Tuesday, September 2nd...thanks for entering! =)
Hope you have a wonderful day!

I'd love to win your generous giveaway. The bag is very cute and I love chocolate. I have just finished my very first quilt, so the magazine would also come in handy. Love all your blog entries. I play the rice game at least once a week. It's a good way to help others as well as learn new words.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Hope you had a great one.
