Giveaway Week: Happy Birthday!!!

***This Giveaway is now Closed***

giveaway week

Well, I am officially 30! Can you believe it?! Ha. Probably since we've probably never met. ;) lol. Anyway, I had a fantastic birthday weekend, thanks to my wonderful hubby!!! :) And so far, so good. :) I think I had a harder time turning 28 than I am turning 30. I don't think anything can worse than turning 28. But that's a different story.


Are you ready for giveaway week?!!! I took the weekend off from sewing and blogging and all things related, so I had to wait until nap time today to get everything ready! Boy am I excited for this week. I hope you all like the selections I've picked for the giveaways this week. :)


Nicey-Jane-bundle.gif.png

First up on the list, to celebrate my birthday, I am giving away a charm pack of Nicey Jane! (I've cut the charm pack from my stash of fabric, just so you know.) That's 39 - 5" x 5" squares - one of each print (I am missing one print - the leaves in blue - the print on the far right, second row down). I LOVE this line! It was my very first FQ bundle that I bought well over a year ago. I made Little M's quilt with it (that I'm hoping to finish this month. lol.)

  1. Well, I would have liked to imbide just a bit at #30 less than a month ago, but baby#1 is incubating, so that spoiled that plan! My ideal birthday would probably be spent at Disney World!

  8. Happy birthday to you! Funny you mention turning 28 being hard, my birthday is next week, I am turning 28, and I was just talking to my BFF about how 28 just seems like a really bad age, lol.
    My dream birthday would be...chillin in my sweats around the house all day, hubby waiting on me hand and foot, sewing some fun projects, and family/friends coming by for food and fun!

    ReplyDelete
  9. My dream birthday would involve sleeping late, spending lots of time with my family, taking a trip, spending a lot of time sewing, eating much great food...not at all possible all in 1 day - that is why it would be a dream! Happy birthday and thanks for the giveaway!

  13. My dream birthday would be for my husband to get up first and make coffee and scones with my daughter. Then they would drop me off at the spa for a day of pampering. My daughter would go to a friend's house for a sleepover, and my husband & I would go to dinner at our favorite restaurant and enjoy a nice evening out.

  14. My birthday is in November and I would love to spend it with lots of food and family! I'd also love to go to the beach again. It's been too long since I've been to the beach and I miss it! That's how I'd spend my birthday. A feast with family at the beach!!

  23. My dream birthday (which is me turning 33 on May 3) is me waking up to gifts of beautiful fabric and quilting supplies. Also, I hope to have a RN (registered nurse) job by then, so maybe some scrubs or a giftcard. Then I would get to spend all day with Ash, my daughter, and Tom-a guy I've been seeing for a month. Then have the best steak dinner with my fam-and Ash always bakes me a cake. Then a walk by the lake. Simple things.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Following your blog...Happy Birthday :)

  25. I shared this give away on facebook :) Happy Bday. I hope my Bday week is this cool.

  26. Oh, I love Nicey Jane! One of my all time faves. Congrats on your birthday - 30 isn't so bad. It's weird to realize that my daughter will be 30 this year. THAT's scary. A perfect birthday? Hmmm... Definitely NOT what we did this year for my b-day which was DH having rotator cuff surgery. Totally un-fun. Don't recommend it. Glad your day was great. Happy 31st year! And thanks for the chance to win.

  29. My dream birthday... no snow on the ground, flowers blooming, bees buzzing, the sun shining so hard it smiles, strolling along, playing croquet in the garden, and other such nuances while enjoying a 5-day mini vacation with loved ones and without the worries or hassles of daily life. or clocks. or phones. or shoes.

    Just over 2 more months and counting...

    ReplyDelete
  36. Right now my dream birthday would involve not changing a single diaper for 24 hours, and eating a meal without a toddler trying to "share" it with me!

    I miss 30, it was a great year!

    ReplyDelete
  37. Well I think a day at the beach surfing and sipping margeritas would be amazing. Well one can dream!!

    ReplyDelete
  40. My favorite birthday would be a destination birthday! Someplace warm with a beach where I get the chance to have people pamper me instead of having to pamper others. I'd even love to drag it out of for a week. That would make it the best birthday ever. Thanks for the chance.

    ReplyDelete
  41. I like to have quiet birthdays now that I am over 50 :) Take me out to breakfast, my favorite meal to have out; have a few hours with the children/grandchildren visiting and doing all the serving themselves; let me shop for fabric online and take me for a ride for an overnight stay in some quiet bed and breakfast....I just might not come home! :)

    ReplyDelete
  42. My ideal birthday is just a nice day relaxing and the kids all getting a long and behaving. Being able to quilt all day with no interuptions. Maybe going out to dinner.

    ReplyDelete
  43. Happy birthday! I'm glad that 30 isn't so bad. I have about 6 more months before that hits! 28 hit me pretty hard too, but just because I could see 30 approaching more quickly than ever! My dream birthday would be going on a cruise. My husband has kind a 24 hour kind of job and no one can reach us when we are at sea! Plus, I love beach destinations!

    ReplyDelete
  44. My dream birthday? Would involve sleeping in until at least 9. And a big breakfast. There would be chocolate. I'd do no chores all day. There would be a nap. Supper out. And of course, time spent with the people I love - close friends and family. :)

    ReplyDelete
  45. Happy Birthday. I turned 50 in January and my dream birthday would be anything but what happened on my birthday. 50 wasn't the issue, everything else was. My BIL died, we almost got guns pulled on us crossing the border because I made a wrong turn, etc etc. So, the ideal birthday would be a quiet, trouble-free one. I'm not greedy, but I would love to win the charm pack. :)

    ReplyDelete
  46. I just had a birthday on the 11th. I would have liked to have had my hubby here to celebrate it with me. He's currently deployed for a year. Needless to say, it wasn't a stellar day for me. But, there's always next year, right?

    ReplyDelete
  47. My dream birthday would be a morning run, after snuggling with the babies in bed followed by a quiet shower, a picnic someone else made, playing all afternoon in perfect weather, planting some flowers and then a nice dinner out with my husband. Some time to sew in there would be a bonus! I adore your nicey jane quilt - one of my favorite fabric lines ever, would love to win your amazing charm pack. Happy Birthday!!!

    ReplyDelete
  48. My ideal birthday would be to have all my kids and grandkids together with me for a fun filled short vacation somewhere. We don't get together that much because of where we live, school schedules and work schedules.

    ReplyDelete
  49. happy birthday! 30 is fun! i have been 30 for 5 months now ;) i think my dream day would be to have a good night's sleep, have my dad make his delicious crepes for my breakfast, play at the park with my son and husband, eat lunch at home, nap, go to the river with my dog along too, then out to dinner with my extended family, with tiramisu for dessert. busy day, but sounds like fun!

    ReplyDelete
  50. Happy Birthday!! mine is this month too but 30 was a long time ago!!

  63. Wow...this is crazy-awesome, Diane! Nicey Jane is my favorite line ever! I don't even have girls...but I just love the colors and patterns. Thanks for the awesome chance! I think the perfect birthday is hanging with the hubs and kiddos, maybe with a little ice cream cake. Oh, and on a tropical island with a margarita in hand wouldn't hurt!

  76. My dream birthday would either be spent in the German Alps or Las Vegas (I may have a bit of a split personality, but that is OK!). Both would have a good meal. One would have a beautiful walk in the country side admiring the sunset and the beatuy of nature. The other might involve a couple of fun beverages - I will let you figure out which is which :-)

    ReplyDelete
  77. My dream birthday would involve all three children being perfectly behaved all day (think one of those floaty movie moments, where the lighting is all misty, and everyone is sickeningly happy), dinner with my lovely man. And uninterrupted quilting time. Lots and lots of it, :o)

    ReplyDelete

  84. Belated happy birthday! I am glad you had a good weekend! My ideal birthday? Hmmmm.....a week at a quilt retreat---which coincided with a retreat for one of DH's hobbies! (then I wouldn't feel guilty for being away! LOL) Oh, of course with an unlimited budget for purchasing fabric!

    ReplyDelete
  87. I would wake up and my house would be clean, the dishes done, and a hot shower waiting. Then a leisurely cup of tea, a few hours reading blogs, and then a surprise visit from an old friend. A huge present delivered to the house.....a new Burninea sewing machine. The top of the line. And an unlimited gift card to my local quilt store. That would be the best birthday ever. It would be even better if both my kids showed up for a dinner out.

    ReplyDelete
  88. It would definitely start with the cats letting me sleep past 5am before demanding breakfast, and then when I finally got out of bed, the husband making pancakes.

  98. If dream about a favorite b'day it would be a posh hotel spa night / day with no cleaning, cooking, or home things to clutter my mind. I would spend it with my mother and we would be driven everywhere and can shop and visit exhibits. We both would have electric scooter chairs towards the end of the day when will be overtired. Then I wake up! Enjoy your 30th. alternate email mlwright29(at)hotmail(dot)com

  99. I turned 30 just over a month ago and it was definitely smooth. Turning 25 was much worse. My dream birthday would involve a day at the spa receiving every massage you can think of, followed by a spicy dinner and beer.

    ReplyDelete
  100. Ok, my dream birthday begins in a small cottage overlooking the Pacific Ocean. I wake up listening to the sound of waves pounding the shoreline, eat pancakes and have a diet coke (don't be a hater!), then wander around through the tidepools and pick shells all morning. Lunch is sweet potato fries, then a massage, mani/pedi followed by a soak in an outdoor jacuzzi tub and a margarita or two. Yep, that sounds pretty good to me!

  111. I've actually had my dream birthday :) Years ago, when my 6 children were ages 1-18, my husband threw me the usual (for our family) party...us, the kids, a few friends, all over for a nice dinner I didn't have to cook and cake and ice cream and gifts. Lovely! But the stand-out this time was my husband's gift, which was a 2 night stay at a nice hotel...all by myself. Ahhhhhhh. 3 days and 2 nights of soaking in the tub with a cocktail, watching the TV the hotel so graciously provided RIGHT IN THE BATHROOM. Room service. Jacuzzi. Sitting by the pool. Dinner and a movie down the street. I came home a new woman, ready for another 40 years of marriage and motherhood ;) Happy birthday. I'm glad it was fabulous for you!

  113. Happy Birthday! Mine was the 18th and, well, it wasn't my dream birthday. But here is my current dream version: it has to be in Seattle (my former home). I get breakfast from my favorite bakery. I get to spend the day sewing and shopping. Dinner is at my favorite Greek place and dessert is at my favorite pie place (I don't want to have to bake my own cake). Yeah, that sounds good to me. Doesn't have to be exotic, just my favorite things, and favorite people!

    ReplyDelete
  118. Happy Birthday! My favorite way to spend the day would be: not going to work, having time to sew or read or watch some movies, taking a nice hike with my hubby and then going out to a pretty place for dinner including wine and dessert. (I suppose this is my favorite realistic brithday. If money were no object I'd love to jet away somewhere new and exciting for the weekend!)

    ReplyDelete
  119. Happiest of Birthdays to you.. my 30th was so long ago I don't remember how I spent it! LOL Dream birthday would be just a day where no one wanted anything from me!!! BTW- Love Affair with My Brother sent me your way

  127. I am lucky enough to get to have my dream birthday pretty much every year. My family has a house on a lake in the mountains of New Hampshire, and every year for some time now my family and friends all gather up there for the weekend on or right around my birthday, which is in the middle of July. I get to spend the whole weekend relaxing, having fun, enjoying good food and drinks and all with the best people in the world. I am truly blessed.

  132. My dream birthday would definitely include a fun-filled day with my husband and two little girls. Perhaps a trip to the park for a picnic, followed by playtime at the jungle gym. Then the kids would be whisked away to my parents so my hubby and I could have a quiet, relaxing dinner and evening together followed by a wonderful morning sleeping in....my dream birthday!

    ReplyDelete
  133. My dream birthday would be getting to go on my dream trip. I've always wanted to go on a cruise and that would be the perfect birthday gift. Thanks for a chance to win this beautiful fabric. :) Happy Birthday to you!

  136. My dream birthday would involve someone cooking a meal for me. This has almost never been done since I grew up and left home, lo, these many moons ago.

  138. My dream birthday would be spending some quiet time with my hubby in a small
    cabin in the Smokey Mountains. Of course, we would have to spend a few days
    there....so I could take my hand crank sewing machine and sew in the after-
    noon, and my hubby could go fishing for our supper..(or go buy steaks).
    Thanks for the chance to win!

  141. My dream birthday is easy: OUTSIDE in the sun!!!! My b-day is in December and can be very yucky here in Germany. Last December I thought I had a fair chance since I was in Austin, TX but turns out the weather was the same in Austin and Berlin 12° Celsius and rain :(
    Btw, Happy Belated Birthday!

  142. Dream bday: SLEEP IN, get grits and eggs for breakfast, sew, enjoy the day, take a walk in the sunshine, curl up under a blanket and relax, play with kiddos and chat with hubby, watch the sunset, enjoy a chocolate treat :) Perfect!

  143. My dream birthday would involve a new, expensive sewing machine! I am really lusting after the idea of features such as needle up/down, knee lift, auto thread cutter...a large harp! *sigh* I turned 32 on the 11th...Hubs picked me up the first season of Cougartown on dvd. It was good times... but not quite a dream!
    I just entered your HV giveaway, then I see day 1 is Nicey Jane!? Next you will be giving away some Dewberry I'll bet...a girl after my own heart!

  144. My dream birthday would be a chocolate cake with chocolate swiss meringue buttercream and all my gifts would be gifts of fabric. Delicious, delicious fabric! By the way Happy Birthday and this giveaway is awesome because Heather is my favorite fabric designer ever! My birthday was the 14th so if I won it would be an awesome belated birthday!

  148. My dream birthday would involve going on a vacation with my kids and grandkids. I would love it to be somewhere in Europe. Since one of the little ones is only two, that might be hard. It would be awesome to go to Disney to celebrate, too.

  150. My ideal birthday... I would be woken in the morning to the aroma of freshly brewed coffee, bacon and eggs.. remembering that we were not at home, but in the luxurious mountain lodge my hubby had rented for my birthday getaway!! My whole family-- daughters, their hubbies, and granddaughter, would enjoy that delicious breakfast, then pack up for a day of hiking, picnicing and playing in the icy mountain rivers! In the evening, we'd enjoy roasting hot dogs around the campfire, while watching the fireflies twinkle all around us. ... Oh, and this day would repeat for the next 6 days-- because birthdays *should* be "birthweeks" and celebrated as such! :-)

  153. Oh my goodness! I followed a link to your blog because of your great pincushion tutorial and you are having a birthday (Happy Birthday!!) and a giveaway! Of my favourite fabric! Fate?? here's hoping:))) -oh wow, I just spotted a whole raft of giveaways!
    right: my dream birthday would (it's soon and it's the one before the next big 0) would be a costume party- on the theme of superheroes and their nemesiseses (I looked it up and it's nemeses..hmmm). Outdoors, a gazebo, lanterns, good friends and my family around me. I'll leave you to guess which superhero or villain I would be:))

  154. I would love to go to Europe for my birthday, but since that's never going to happen, I'll settle for an overnight babysitter. :)

  156. My perfect birthday gift would be a trip to Germany to see my daughter (Army girl). It's her second tour there and I've never been able to go over.Seeing here after a year absence would be the best part.. seeing Germany would be icing on the cake!
