300 Follower Bloggy Giveaway!!

Happy Tuesday! Let's Celebrate You! Leona's Quilting Adventure has surpassed  300 followers! Thank you for following my blog and commenting on my posts. I have learned some things with blogger and I wanted to share them with you. If you know this, it is OK to laugh with me...but honestly I just figured this out! Up until about a week ago I went through the painstaking task of clicking on your picture to find your email address through blogger to reply to when you posted a comment. It is a slow process to try respond to every comment when you have to go back and forth through blogger to try to find an email address to respond to. One of my followers had emailed me and said that my blog was very slow to open and that I should go into settings to set my posts to show only four posts on the page of my blog. So when I went to do that, I looked at Posting under settings and found that I could have your comments emailed to me! WOW! I felt like a burden had been lifted off of my shoulders and that I could now respond quicker and in a more timely manner to every post...So hopefully you aren't laughing too hard right now...To celebrate 300 followers, we are having a special Bloggy Giveaway! I love shopping at the Fat Quarter Shop and thought that Leona's Quilting Adventure would giveaway one $25.00 gift certificate to one lucky winner!

To Enter is Easy:
1. Be a follower of the blog, or become a new follower!
2.If you are a blogger, please blog about this giveaway and paste your link into the comment section!
3 Share a sentence or two about what your favorite color is!
This giveaway will end on Sunday, January 30, 2011, at midnight Eastern Standard Time. Winner will be announced Monday, January 31, 2011!
THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED

I am a blue person. Meaning I like the color blue! And I am a follower.

I always reply to comments...as long at they are set to accept them. If they say 'no reply' in the email address...then you are replying to cyber space. So they don't get a reply back.

Also, I am not one to comment on my blog page to each comment. I don't think people really go back to read them, do they? I don't know why people do that! Oh well, to each his own.

And your question about colors. . well lately it's been orange but today I may pick aqua blue. . I think this is because the one quilt I'm working on today is overwhelming orange.

Hi Leona this is a hard one because it depends ..... I like pinks and greens together and blue and white but also like browns and turquoise, guess I like a lot of colours. Thanks for the chance to win.

It may sound odd, especially from someone who loves bright color, but I am going to go with grey - because grey seems to have this magic that makes every other color (except maybe brown) look all the more beautiful. :)
