Because I'm Feeling Fairly Lazy . . .

There are nights lately when I haven't been sleeping especially well. Sometimes I can't get to sleep, but more often than not, it's just that I keep waking up and don't get into that deep, refreshing sleep. I think it's probably menopause. So every now and then, I try to get to bed early with a good book and a bottle of Tylenol PM. I think tonight's one of those nights.

And the other thing? Sometimes when I'm feeling lazy and not all into writing an entertaining blog post, and I don't have anything I've made to show you, I'll have a giveaway. That way, you won't feel like you wasted a mouse click to get here. But not tonight. Tonight I'm going to give you something that's easier for me and better for you--blog giveaway INFORMATION. Information on oodles and oodles of giveaways!

Yes, some of you may already know about this, and I apologize for needlessly making you click that mouse button--and, of course, I always appreciate your visit!--but for those of you who don't know, this is a real BONANZA! Sew, Mama, Sew has organized about a gazillion blogs into doing giveaways with most drawings on the 31st. She's even categorized the giveaway blogs into three different "types" and noted whether the blogger will ship internationally or not. All you have to do is click on the links, read what each blogger is offering, and enter or not, as you like.

But, before you click away from here, since I'm thinking about giveaways and all, I wanted to let you know--especially the three winners of the Fireworks! pattern--that I most definitely plan to have the pattern published this weekend and up for sale on my Etsy site before the weekend ends. By Monday, I'll get the patterns in the mail to my winners. Oh, and if you're not interested in making a Fourth of July quilt but think you might like the way the pattern looks? Stay tuned because I'm going to make my class sample using Halloween fabric.

So anyway, enough about me--I know you're anxious to click over to some potential prize winnings and, along the way, expand your blog reading list. So go ahead--click HERE!
