And The Winner Is…

Go Gingham Free Drawing Names in bowl

Before I announce the winner, I wanted to say thank you for all of the comments, suggestions and ideas I received!  Your support is much appreciated.

Go Gingham lunch sack winner

The winner is….Devon! I delivered the bag and she was very excited.

I’ll do another drawing soon. My husband just suggested we do a drawing for a chair next. I can’t pass up (Okay, some chairs I do pass up) a chair with a sign on it that says FREE!

Also, I plan to post the directions to the lunch sack soon. You can make one yourself at home. If you can cut, sew, and read, you can do it!

Let me go on record here:  I am not a floral designer and up until this project, I had no experience with fancy flowers.  My expertise is in easy, cut from the yard flower arrangements.
