    But, I just wanted to say that I live with a bunny, too!! His name is Teaser and he's almost 10 years old! We've had him for 8 years! What a good pet (except when he chewed holes in my mother-in-law's brand-new $100 coat we had to replace. Oops.) Thanks for the chance to win!!

  32. Very sweet. I haven't made a quilt yet and I'm getting tons of inspiration through these giveaways so I'd probably go that route. Thanks for the chance!

  33. I love that vintage sheet bundle. Rachel Denbow (http://racheldenbow.com/ is her blog I think) has done some lovely things with vintage sheets and has totally inspired me to do something myself sometime (I'm not sure what-I think it would depend on what I feel like making at the time). This would be a great chance to do so! Pickkkkkkkkk meeee. :)
