I didn't forget...I promise!

Yesterday was the 10th, the day of the drawing for the fabulous Anniversary Gifts.  I did have the drawing, we'll get to the names in a minute...I wanted to have a cute picture with Mick holding the names of the winners in his mouth.  He's not a slobbery dog so that would not have been an issue, but he is on the other hand a jumpy, sometimes nervous dog.  There was no getting him to hold still and understand these instructions: 1. Mick hold these pieces of paper in your mouth, no Mick; don't eat them, just hold them. Round two: Okay Mick, just stand still while I hang this little sign from your neck saying who the winners are...wait wait wait; don't run away, don't go outside -

MICK COME BACK! 

So much for that silly exercise, you will be happy to know that Mickey has quietly been allowed to go back to being a dog, without pieces of paper sticking out of his mouth, or a little sign hanging from his neck that says "the winners of our 2nd anniversary contest are Jacquie, and Kathleen"

Thank you to everyone for entering our anniversary contest, and for leaving such lovely, heart felt comments.  In our crazy world today it was so comforting to see how much you have in your lives to love, to be grateful for, to count; your list of two's just went on and on, and that is a wonderful thing!

Well dearest friends, here's to two more years of quilting, of fabric, of patterns, of family; of market, of silliness, of getting lots done!!! 

Here's one of my favorite pictures of Mickey, just chillin' on the couch, posing for Lizzy while she takes his pic...the quilt in the back isn't bad either, right? 

Hey sweet winners, email me your mailing addresses at cherryhousequilts(at)gmail(dot)com.  I'll get your anniversary gifts in the mail to you right away!

Congrats to the winners. And yes the quilt in the back is very nice! Isn't it a cracker block or something like that? I made some this year for a block lotto in brights on whites. I didn't win, but I soooo wanted to! It would have made a great baby quilt!
