First, how I prepared for the “drawing”. I printed out each day’s comment section for the eight days of the give-away. Next I went through and X’ed out any duplicates for that particular day, any comments by me, my hubby, or my son Dave (sorry, Dave, I know you really wanted all this quilty stuff…).
I then started numbering the comments starting with 1 on the first day going through to the last comment on yesterday’s post, which was numbered 171. Then I got DH into the computer room with me to be my witness that I did everything fair and square. I used a random number generator, entered that I wanted it to draw two numbers in the range of 1 to 171. And here’s what it spit out:
And, the winning numbers are: 129 and 59!!! Oh, wait, you probably wanted NAMES, didn’t you? Let me try again.
Congratulations to Donna and Ruby!!! Congratulations to both of you, and I will be contacting you via e-mail to get your mailing addresses. An interesting side note: both Donna and Ruby entered all eight days, as did many of you (thank you!). Here are the winning entries:
Thank you, everyone, for making my 1st anniversary/40,000 visit week so much fun! I really enjoyed everyone’s comments, and I also feel like we know each other a little better. Thank you all again for playing along this week, and I hope you continue to stop by once in a while and say “hi”!

(PS: Sorry, apparently asmallorange (the host for my web site) had a server down for a while today, and it was the one I’m on. My apologies to those of you who were trying to find out the results of our give-away.)
