A Few Giveaways!

Okay, so if you’ve been following my blog for a while, you’ve probably noticed that I don’t blog about giveaways very often. Actually, this is my first post about friends’ giveaways. :-)
When I started my blog almost a year ago, I decided not to feature giveaways on my blog because I started this blog as a journal and I felt that random giveaways may somehow detract from the ‘journal-y’ feel that I created my blog to have.
But after some thought, I’ve decided to feature giveaways now and then…and I may just set up a separate page for them so they don’t become distracting.
With that said, I’d like to let y’all know about a few giveaways being hosted by a few friends of mine right now!
My friend Lindsay at Content in Christ is hosting a giveaway to celebrate the opening of her Etsy shop. She’ll be giving away a handbag of the winner’s choice! So please click here and enter. It ends tonight!
Leah, another friend of mine, at The Narrow Path is also hosting a giveaway. She’s celebrating one year of blogging. {Congratulations, Leah!}. She’s giving away the book “Preparing to Be a Helpmeet” by Debi Pearl. I haven’t read the book myself but I’ve heard it’s really good. Her giveaway ends on September 1st; click here to enter!

An Old-Fashioned Girl is one of my favorite blogs to read. And Johanna is hosting a giveaway to celebrate her 200th blog post! She’s giving away several great prizes {including a lovely pattern & fabric} so be sure you check it out!

And don’t forget about my giveaway! I’m sewing an apron for the person who refers the most participants to the knit & crochet-along project for Romania! So spread the word and you may win a custom-made apron! :-)
I hope everyone’s having a lovely day!

Giveaway Extended!

Thank you for all your entries, dear friends! I'm happy that everyone has had fun on this giveaway. Because I haven't spent much time on the computer of late, I haven't had a chance to answer everyone's questions regarding the giveaway. So for those of you who posted a question on the giveaway, you should see an answer in the comments section for the giveaway post shortly. Because some of the questions will directly affect the final score, the giveaway has been extended until midnight on Saturday.  The winner will be announced on Sunday!

If you haven't entered the giveaway, it's not too late to join. Please visit this post for information on how you can win a dishtowel and dishclothes set!

Blessings,

Mystery Project and Surprise!

I finished the mystery project today! It is... a dishtowel and dishcloth set! I crocheted three dishcloths and one dishtowel in coordinating colors. I used Sugar 'n' Cream cotton yarn which is soft and perfect for towels.

The dishtowel has a pretty wave design. :-)

Dishcloth #2

Dishcloth #3

Okay, so here's the surprise I promised to announce....

my first giveaway!!

This giveaway will be different because there will be a quiz involved!. Instead of doing a random drawing, I've made up a Bible quiz with 25 questions.

Here's how you can enter to win the dish towel set:

• Complete my Bible quiz without using your Bible or the Internet to answer the questions. Please do not post your score in a comment. Instead, send your score to me by emailing it to heirsofpromise@gmail.com.
• Become a follower of my blog. This will add 5 points. If you're already a follower just leave a comment letting me know!
• Feature this giveaway on your blog and give a direct link to the this post. You'll gain 10 additional points.
• Add my blog to your blogroll. - 15 additional points

I'll add any additional points earned to the percentage score from the Bible quiz. For example, if you get 92% on the quiz, become a follower, feature the giveaway on your blog, and add my blog button you will get a total of 122 points. The highest possible number of points is 130 points. The person with the highest total of points will win the giveaway! If there happens to be a tie, the prize will be given to the person who submitted their quiz score first.

The deadline for this giveaway is Wednesday, April 21st at midnight. The winner will be announced on Thursday the 22nd.

Feel free to post pictures of the dishtowel set on your blog when you feature it!

Here's the quiz, so you can do right here on my blog!
