It's my Blogversary More or Less

     I was reading Anja's blog post about her 4th year blog anniversary and I realized it was my 4th year blog anniversary as well!  So both Anja and I started blogging in February, four years ago, although we didn't meet each other until the New Bloggers blog hop in 2015.  Carrie also started her blog in February, but 2 years ago.   I think there must be something about the middle of winter that makes people feel the need to reach out.

      Half the time I forget about my blog anniversary.  Probably because I'm usually sick in February.  But this year I remembered thanks to Anja and Carrie and I've decided to celebrate by having a give away. Come to think of it Anja won the first give away I had.  I've chosen 8 fat quarters from my stash that I will send to one reader. They could go together in one project but of course they don't have to. You don't have to be a follower of my blog to enter the give away but I would appreciate it if you did follow. I'll choose a winner next week on Friday.  It will be March then, but that's o.k.



     I'll put the names in a hat and pick a winner that way.  Good luck.

I had said I would have a Friday finish to post about today and I got really really close but not quite done and of course I'm hoping for some more sunny weather so I can get some good photos.  So it will have to wait for next week.

Happy Blogaversity Lisa. I like your theory, I started mine in January two years ago, but I missed my blogaversity this year. I must say blogging has been very good for my workflow and I love this wonderful helpful and sharing community we have, quilters are such wonderful people.

happy blogversary Lisa. It must be mine soon to then. I had been blogging a year by 2015 blog hop but started in the summer. I had been reading blogs for a while then decided to jump in.

What a fun coincidence, there must be something to February blog starts. I have been knit blogging forever, but quilt blogging only recently. I can't even remember my blogiversary!

Happy Blogiversary! You made me realize, I missed my four year blogiversary at the end of January. I've been married to my blog so long, I've forgotten :)

Happy blogiversary! If I had started my blog when I originally planned, I think I would have been a February or early March too! But I drug my feet a bit so I'm an April blogger instead. 😊 Thanks for the lovely giveaway, looking forward to seeing your finish next week!

Congratulations on your 4-year mark, Lisa! What would we do without our quilting community? I've met so many fun people, including you, so I wish you a wonderful, happy upcoming year! Lovely fabrics you are parting with!

Chantal said...

Happy blogaversary to you ♫♪♪ I started in February but like you, I keep forgetting, lol. I'll have to look up the year I started because at this moment, I don't even remember. (Boy, I am getting old!) Love the fabric you have picked for the win, especially the one at the front. Gorgeous colors. May you blog for many many more years. ;^)

Congratulations! I had to go back and check -- eek, I'm at 5 years next month, where does the time go! Enjoy your weekend and your projects.

Congratulations on your blogging birthday - 4 years is a lot of chatting! - I think I may have started in February as well but it was summertime for us then.

Well, add me to the February Anniversary - Started in 2014 and now my next Post will be the 200th! A few "hiccups" caused me to miss some quilting last year, but this year is going to be a banner year for me! Happy Blogversary!!!
