(NOTE:  There is still a slot open for one more PAY IT FORWARD participant.  Read about the conditions below, and if you’d like to pay it forward, leave me a comment!  –Sue)

Julie K had the nicest offer on her site:  the first three interested people to respond would receive something handmade from her in the next year; in return, those three people would also post a Pay It Forward offer on their blog.  All in the interest of making the world a happier place!  I couldn’t resist.  I have found quilters to be very generous people, and that is especially true of blogging quilters.

So here it is.  I am extending a Pay It Forward offer to the first three responders to this post (a handmade gift from me in the next year).  You must also indicate that you are willing to pay it forward with the same offer on your blog (sorry, but this will only work if you also have a blog).  So what do you think?  Are there any takers out there???

PS:  I won’t make you wait a year for your surprise!

This is what happens when you don’t have grandchildren — you post a photo of one of your grandpuppies.  So, this is Tucson.  Tucson lives in Virginia with our oldest son Dave.  Or maybe Dave lives with Tucson.  I’m not sure.  Anyway, isn’t he cute?  He looks like he’s ready to save the world!

 Who needs a Halloween purse, you may ask?  Probably nobody.  But this was so much fun.  I have a link to a placemat purse tutorial on my sidebar under “Quilting”, and loosely follow the instructions in that tutorial.  I have made several of this type of purse, and as a result, I’m always on the lookout for an interesting placemat.  This placemat was from Target.  I lined the purse in orange, added a zipper, and put a few crystals on the spider web and one on the spider itself.  And this is the first sewing I’ve done using Sewphie.

We’re going out with friends tomorrow night, and I’m wearing all black, except for my jazzy Halloween socks and my new stylin’ purse.

Boo!
