Today is post 400! And to celebrate I have cut 6 1/2 inch squares of some of my most favorite vintage linens. There are five squares each of 16 different yummy prints. That is enough to make a 48" x 60" lap quilt, you could even add borders to it to make it larger. I think they would make a very soft, yummy quilt. 
I would like to thank you dear readers, for visiting me and making this space fun for me. When I started this little blog, I didn't know it would become so important to me, so THANK YOU!
To enter, you need to make a comment on this post and I want to know what makes you like coming here to visit. Yes, maybe I am fishing for compliments, it's my blog, I can do that can't I? I guess you could just say that your here for the yummy free linens, but that wouldn't be very fun for me to read over and over again :) You have until Monday at midnight Mountain Standard Time to enter. I will announce the winner on Tuesday!

I love all your projects. This fabric is so cool. I never find vintage sheets around here so I would love this! Happy 400th post!
Happy 400th post!! I love coming here to see all of the beautiful things you make for your precious daughters. You are so creative and I just love your vintage style. Oh, and your music. I think you took it off your blog, but you always had the best tunes too :-)

Love those linens. Now...why do I visit? Let's see...you have three girls. I have five. You have quirky humor. I like that. You have husband that curls hair. I have a husband that paints nails. You don't like shoveling snow. Me either, but Montana snow is a lot like Utah snow. There's lots. And then there's the obvious. You make cool things.
Happy 400th post~

I love to read because it's like sitting and chatting with a crafty girlfriend about sewing and family. And I love your style!
Happy 400th post and awesome giveaway. I am a sucker for vintage linens and have a new to me sheet that would back those beauties perfectly. Crossing my fingers!
The sewing, the pictures, the vintage ... you have a beautiful blog.

I love to read your blog because you're a mama just like me and it gives me hope that I can have the time and energy to make beautiful things like you do. Congratulations on 400 posts!
I love seeing all your delicious vintage fabrics! Growing up my family had several sheets, blankets, and quilts of the fabrics I have seen in your pictures but sadly we lost them all in a house fire. Seeing the same patterns and designs brings back good memories.
I also enjoy listening to your playlist. ;)
although we are roughly the same age, you have three beautiful daughters and i'm still very, um, not married(ha). i'm always impressed by all the craft shows you do and just sewing in general. i guess i kind of live vicariously through you and like to imagine what my life may look like in the future!
Happy 400th post!! I come here for inspiration. I love to see what you are creating. Thank you!
Your posts are inspiring...thanks for sharing with us!
Love reading your blog and enjoy your passion around vintage items.
I have also discovered some new music via the player on your blog.
Thanks and Happy Holidays!
Your stuff is just so sweet I got addicted! I love your crafts and pictures!
400! Yahoo. I found your blog through the sew-n-tell. I think what hooked me was the gray purse with the white doily, I love that idea and I keep coming back for more, so keep it up :)

I found your site bacause of the scrappy skirt tutorial and then I started reading. I love all of your color combinations that you use. You inspire me to be crafty. Thank you.
Oh what a beautiful give-away and congrats on number 400! Holy cow! That's crazy! Hope I win this fabric goodness!
I am a new follower to your blog! I just happened upon it the other day and have been hooked since! Your blog is refreshing, bright, innovative and artistic! All the things that are dear to my heart! Thanks for the good reads!
P.S. I was working the cash registers at the Beehive Bazaar and I can truly say that we felt for every single person who stood in line to support our local crafters! Hopefully next time it won't be so long! So sorry!
Happy Blog Milestone! :) I like coming here because I'm another sewing Utah mama and I like to read your posts about local boutiques/events you participate in. I am also a big fan of vintage fabrics. Oh, and I like your music too!
I love how creative you are, your honesty, quirky sense of humor, and genuine your words are!
I come for many reasons. Mostly to see what you are doing and to gain inspiration. To enjoy little snippets of your life that let me know that there is someone else out there that has bad days mixed in with their good and that you just keep moving and life keeps going and it's all ok. I love your music choices. I like to see your fabric combinations...I'm a little combination impaired, myself. I could go on a while longer, but I don't want to be the longest comment. :) Thanks!
Happy 400th post! I am fairly new here...but love coming over! You have great ideas (that I sometimes link to...) and wonderful pictures. I also have found some great music off your player that I didn't know. :)
You are a girl after my own heart (if I had more time I would do more of it as well...such is life!)
So, even if I don't win...I will still keep blurking! :) Thanks for being so creative and inspirational.
Well I have been reading your blog for a couple of years now and I keep coming back for more! I always save it as one of the lat blogs to read on my list because I know you will have something beautiful to look at! You usually have either a new project or a piece of your home or even your family to see, and I love that! I also am inspired by the fact that you have 3 young children like myself, but still make all your cool stuff and actually sell it and make money! So awesome:) Keep up the amazing work!
Oh I forgot to say, I love reading about how you live in Sugarhouse because if we still lived in SLC that's where I would want to live:)
I really enjoy reading about all of your great ideas. I also appreciate how "real" you are in sharing challenges and joys. It is encouraging to see another mom be able to create such beautiful works.
I love how your posts are so fun... you make sure to tell it a little quarky and always keep it real. Your projects are inspiring and unique. Truly unique. Each item one of a kind. I adore how you are so inventive with all your vintage finds... always making them into something new and treasured.
I would love to create a quilt for my home with these vintage linens. What a fun collection. exciting. thank you for offering this. congratulations on 400 posts. wow.
Hi, Amy! I pop in to see your creativity, especially the quilty kind. I'm loving the "vintage linens" aka soft old sheetings, and I've started collecting. Thanks for the giveaway.
This was only my second time visiting your site and the first time I really explored, but I was blown away by your vintage quilts. I have been discovering recently how much I love vintage linens (and all things vintage, in fact - had fun looking through your Etsy shop), after picking up a few at yard sales to use in rag rugs. But I never envisioned they could make such awesome quilts.
I love your post about stashes - that's totally me, I tend to acquire random awesome crafty piles, and then I just *revel* in them! So much fun. I'd love to begin a stash of vintage linens squares =) Ooh, makes me shiver.
p.s. My sewing machine also resides in my living room... I share your dream! Oh, wouldn't that be the day...
i stop by for the colors. i love all the color you include in your designs. keep creating!
Just found you on stumbleupon and I am in love~ You are amazing, and your pictures are lovely! Thanks for the opportunity, and I look forward to following you in the future~Laura
P.S. pop over to my blog if you wish

I like your blog name. It makes me smile and warms me up which is nice because of all the snow at the moment trying to make me cold. but you wont let it her on your blog everything is happy and colorful and fresh. Love the fabric and would love to make my baby to be a blanket out of it, so thanks for the chance.
I just found your blog...and love the quilt you created from the Cluck Cluck Sew tutorial. It's one I have on my "someday" list. Thank you for sharing such beautiful ideas. Best wishes and Merry Christmas!
I mean, I keep coming back because your projects are so pretty and interesting (and inspiring)--but a bonus is that I LOVE your playlist! You've introduced me to so many great artists I may never have heard of. :-)
I found this blog when I searched for DIY projects and I never stopped coming back! I'm a law student and I've found that the best way to beat my stress is to channel my energy into projects! Keep up your great work - you inspire me every time I read about what you're up to!
