Free Trade and Economy (and a Give-away!)

I spent the afternoon sewing. I made two more blocks for my Grateful Heart Sampler. The first is called "Free Trade".

The second is called "Economy". And you probably thought I was going to do a stimulating post about the current economic climate in this blog, judging from the title!!! I have completed 8 out of 25 blocks for this quilt.

I noticed on my counter that I am very close to 20,000 views of my blog! I think this should be celebrated with a give-away! On February 15th, I will put the names of all the people who have commented on the February posts on my blog into a hat and pick one to receive a candle mat. So... leave a comment and you will have a chance to win!!!
