So I'm ending the contest for the long arm quilting service one hour early. Cause I'm famished and we are going out to dinner momentarily.
And, I thought it might make you less mad at me for ending it early if I gave away 40 spools of my most favoritest thread on earth. This thread makes me want to pause and reflect on its greatness. And if I wasn't so blasted ravenous I probably would. I love, love, love Mettler thread.

First, the winner of the long arm quilting from The Back Porch Quilters is . . .
#302 Laine
Congratulations! Email me at dana@oldredbarnco.com to claim your prize.

Leave a comment here to this post by noon tomorrow (or June 18, 2009 at 12 noon US EDST) for a chance to win 40 spools of Mettler thread in a cool carrying case. Note that this picture has more than 40 spools. But I'm not at home and can't photograph the acutal thread. So I snagged this one from their website. But 40 spools is alot of thread so don't despair.
One entry per person. I'll pick a winner by random draw soon thereafter. Only one entry per person . . . did I say that already? Forgive me. I'm so hungry I'm starting to shake. International entries welcome.
