TraveLLing TreaSuRe

It's been my pleasure to have this little package of wonder in July.
I thought that as I have had two babies come into my world recently, I would send this "treasure" to the first person who correctly answers a question about my BABY.

WHAT WAS SO SPECIAL ABOUT THE DAY 
MY BABY (youngest daughter) WAS BORN ON in 1986?

This is what the travelling stash is all about.... it started with Debbie from HERE.

I would like to introduce you to an idea I have had for awhile.  I think it will be fun and I hope you will join in.  The original idea credit all goes to dear Melody.  Melody offers a chance to win a giveaway on her blog on the second Tuesday of the month that is called Tuesday Treasures.  I was her lucky winner a couple of months ago and I have made the needle case from the pattern and fabric she sent me.  Since I don't need the pattern any more, I've been thinking that it might be fun to pass it on. Squishy mail is always better than a flat envelope!

I will post the pattern from Melody and include a second pattern from me.
I  will add a fat quarter to get you started and a little notebook for you to sign with your address and blog address. I will keep to the same date as Tuesday Treasures (2nd Tuesday of the month) to act as a reminder and avoid confusion. 

You can keep either or both patterns.  One month later, (Tuesday Treasure time), send any two patterns, a fat quarter, and the notebook along to the next person.  Offer a giveaway on your blog, then send the goodies on to your winner.  You can have a contest or use random # generator. 

To join in, you need to have a blog or a friend that will post an update on their blog for you.

Feel free to grab the button.  


And this is what you can "take your choice" from...

I will announce the winner & mail next TUESDAY ... Aug 13th (2nd Tuesday)

I wonder whether its the Challenger disaster, Cheryll? Yes I admit I googled. Sharyn:)

Cheryl said...

Think travelling treasures is a fantastic idea - what fun

Cheryl said...

Lol - forgot about the question, and I'm sure Sharyn is probably correct. My oldest daughter was born in 1986so I should probably know the answer

Oh my goodness. I hope it's not the challenger disaster, but that's the only major event I remember from 1986. My daughter was 10 on September 11, 2001 and she struggles with the comments about her birthday being on that date every year.

But the Tuesday Treasures idea is so fun. Count me in!

I love the Travelling Treasures and it's amazing to see how it has evolved. I've already had it so I won't go in the draw.

Chernobyll, Barlow 7 Chambers Execution and wait for it .... Crocodile Dundee was released. I googled too and it is amazing how many things happened that we have tucked away as learnt but not remembered!!!
