EDITED: We have a winner
contest is closed.
Remember way back in February when I won the Traveling Stash
I then sent it on again
I followed it for a little while but lost track of it when it split in two.
Well it was a nice surprise when I came across it again. I decided I would comment on it not expecting to win it!
Well I did, I won Box 1.
I emailed the blogger to let her know that I had won it before and that I wouldn't be upset if she did the draw again.
She replied that she didnt see a problem with it and thought my readers would like another try!
so guess what? It arrived yesterday and today I went though it.
It was really neat to see that so much that was in there at the beginning (I was the second to win) that isnt there now. A lot was moved when she split it. This is the 11th hands it has been in.
all that is left that I sent off was the santa, the burgundy place-mats and the pompoms and peachy bias binding. oh- and maybe some of the patterns.
This is what is going back into the box that was in there when I received it.
(Note my husbands hand in the upper left.)
I am amazed how much was fit into this box!
When I tried to pack all the stuff back in the box that is in that ^picture, it was hard AND I still had to add my stuff.
this is going back in
Soo what am I adding?
Well you may know about my "slight" ikea fabric addiction - If not- go read about it.
Since I like you guys so much I have added FOUR half yards of my Ikea fabric to the Stash.
I only have 2 of the fabrics shown here. I also added some 2 inch cut strips, a green and white and yellow muslin sheet, some fishing fabric and some scraps.
Here is what I am keeping:
I couldnt get the block back in the box so I will keep it for a baby shower. I also have some flower fabric that is of the same line.
I love the Psalm quotes and am excited to work them into a quilt somehow.
I also grabbed the quilting pattern. I think it will be a great pattern to follow with my hand quilting.
oh and the blue fat quarters.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ok- and now the rules:
You must be willing to continue the travelling stash giveaway. Once you receive the package, you must fill it up again with fabric from your stash and any fabric that you don't want that I've included. Then, you will have a giveaway on your blog, continuing the travelling stash.
I will do just a one comment per person - let me know where you are. I am curious to see who is reading this blog.
Drawing will take place using Random.org on Wednesday, June 29th.

How lucky you are!! I have been trying to track down the second box with no success - so I can pass the word on to others. Little ole me in New York
Woo! I was just thinking about this the other day, wondering where it had gone off to. :) I'd love to have a chance at it. I'm up in Seattle, WA, and yes, it is currently raining! Heheheh.
I would love to have a chance at the travelling stash! I am from Northeat Pennsylvania!
This is fun! Glad you got it back. I won one of the boxes when it was split in two. I'm not entering...I am leaving for Europe in a couple of days and wouldn't be able to pass it along.
Zomg! My wife LOVES quilting. I want to get this for her. I hope I win! I am from North Carolina.
I am so happy to try again for the travelling stash. How lucky you are! And I am from British Columbia, Canada
I won it from you the first time!! Maybe I will be luck as you and win again! Wonderful!
Oooh, I'd love to get my hands on the Traveling Stash! I've got lots of lovelies to add to it.... I'm in the Nashville, TN area!!
Hopping on this train - Retired in hot humid North Carolina. I had lost track of the "stash", so glad I found it. Here's hoping from Judy C

A 'traveling stash' looks like sew much fun. I'm having a giveaway now, so, this could be my second giveaway. Cool!
What a fun box!! Great idea!
I am from Saskatchewan, Canada!
You most certainly are lucky!
I would love to continue the motion of the Traveling Stash. I am in Bakersfield, CA.
Sounds like fun! I live in Texas. Thanks for the chance!
What a hoot!!!! LOL That "Creative Woman" wallhanging was one of my contributions when the box came to my house (hoping SOMEONE will take it! LOL) I'd lost track of the boxes, too. Glad it came home to roost for a while!
Blessings,

The traveling stash sounds like a lot of fun. I don't have a blog but my swap partner does and I could send it on to her. Having fun watching what is added and disappears.
Exciting!! I would love to add to the mix. =)
So glad you will find a home for the "baby block," which is what I intended to be a pincushion. I made it with fabrics I won from Anne Sutton, of Bunny Hill Designs.
The Traveling Stash, how fun! You are lucky to win it twice. I would love to play. I am writing from rainy Northern California (I can see the state capitol building from my window). Thanks for the chance!
I just love the idea of the traveling stash. I'd love to receive it and send it on to it's next destination (my blog winner) Thanks so much!
Opps. Forgot to tell you that I live in a suburb north of Atlanta, GA:)
I love the traveling stash. I hope I'm not too late. I'm in SW Florida but wishing I lived in the country :)
