Grow Your Blog.......

Hello everyone:)

I'm participating in the Grow Your Blog 2014 event hosted by 2 Bags Full which starts today.

Click on the above picture to go to 2 Bags Full

Since some of you are obviously new visitors I thought I'd tell you a bit about myself. 

My name is Mary Ann. I'm married, have two sons, a wonderful daughter-in-law and a beautiful granddaughter.  I also have two cats....Deva and Smokey.

Deva

What do I like to do?........lots of stuff. Actually I think that is one of my biggest problems....LOL

I like to sew, make cloth art dolls, make felt mice, embroider, cross stitch, do crazy quilting and I'm addicted to genealogy.  I also like to blog.....at last count I have 7 blogs...not all public of course. I have four that are dedicated to genealogical research and are for family only. 

This blog is mainly about what I create....my WIP's and my finishes. I have some page tabs across the top to show what I have made in the last few years. I like to add lots of pictures to make it as interesting as I can for my followers. I also like to add videos and links that I find as I go along that I think my followers might enjoy.

I have giveaways for my Blogoversary and special events such as this. I do this because over the years I have won a lot of giveaways and I like to give back in turn. 

This giveaway is open to everyone. I doesn't matter where you live or whether you're a follower or not......so if you're interested please leave me a comment indicating your preferred choice. Please remember if you win and are a "no reply" blogger I won't be able to contact you. So please leave me your email address in your comment. Thank you:) 

Here are my giveaway offerings.....one of the following gently used books from my library.  I need to down size my craft book collection and I hate to throw away perfectly good books.

If you click on the books below you can go to Amazon and see inside:) 

I'm going to leave this giveaway open until February 15th.  I want everyone to get a chance to leave a comment if they wish. Good luck!!!!

So there you go.....I hope you have enjoyed your visit.

Take care:)
