CONTEST CLOSED For my first ever contest on this blog, I will be offering two items: a star-patterned quilting block measuring 12-1/4 inches square and a handmade paper mache Kume mask made of 100% junk mail. The quilting block is one that did not make it into my star quilt because I failed to measure as I sewed and it wound up a quarter inch smaller than the other blocks. The mask is a jolly goddess from traditional Japanese theater, and is a wall hanging measuring about ten inches tall. There will be two drawings. The first winner will have a choice of the two items.
To enter the drawing, "like" my wall page and comment on any of the webpage posts ON THE WEBSITE at http://lawnlesstrials.blogspot.com the duration of this contest. It can be an old post, but the comment must be on the website as all those comments are tracked for me in one place so I won't have to search out every name myself. The first winner will be announced February 14 and she'll need to make her selection and send me contact information. Then I can announce the second winner and which prize remains.My goal with this contest is to increase the number of people reading my posts and to increase interaction with those people. If this goes well, I'll have more contests, so comment and please spread the word!
Mailing address for the prize recipients must be in the USA.
My husband and some readers tell me that they think this mask is creepy. Sooo, as an alternative second prize I could offer some dried flowers or herbs but all I have on hand are from 2010. Would this be more appealing?
One entry per comment on any one post, but you can comment on more than one post for more chances to win.
I am now following your blog. I love your daughter's and know that I will enjoy following yours. I hope that both of you will follow mine at http://meliasurbanfarm.blogspot.com/. I love the mask and the idea that it has been made from recycled junk mail!
