Today is my one year bloggiversary! Happy bloggiversary to me! I can't believe I made it this far. I was really chicken one year ago to take the leap into blogland. Who would have thought that one year later I'd have managed to post over 250 messages, and had over 56,000 visitors. Amazing! I've met some of the loveliest people too. The world is an amazing place.
I've loved the fact that so many bloggers have been conducting give-aways for their milestones, so I thought I'd jump on the bandwagon too! Please leave a comment on my blog and you could win the table runner pictured above. I made it on Sunday and finished the binding yesterday. I made a couple of these for gifts while I was in the US last year. And just so you don't think I was working applique like a maniac - that is a cheater cloth there in the middle. So go on ... leave a comment, I'd love to hear from you - and I'd love to see some lurkers come out of the woodwork too! I will draw a name either on Thursday or Friday depending on work commitments ... so - ready ... set ... go!

Becky in SC
Coming out of thr woodwork here!!! Heck I'd come out of anything to win that table runner.
I've been reading your blog for about 10 months and it is in my list of favorites. I check it every day and am saddened on the days you are either away or busy. You provide so much inspiration to quilters all over the world. I love your work and the special little things you do for thank you gifts...they have given me some great ideas for thank you gifts also. I love your Starstruck Quilt...and I especially love the half stars for the borders!
Happy Blogaversary and keep on keeping on.....
Happy Blogiversary! I'm with you, I had no idea of all of the benefits that I would gain from blogging. I love reading yours - you do beautiful work!
Oh my goodness! You do work fast, even though you had cheater cloth in the blocks! Happy Anniversary! I enjoy your blog!
I am one of your lurkers from New Hampshire, USA. I have been reading your blog everyday, I think you may have just encouraged me to blog! Your designs and your love for Thimbleberries fabrics are very inspiring. Thanks for the inspiration to blog land and for your lovely quilts. Take Care and Congratulations on your first year! ~Tracy
Hi, Tazzie, Happy Anniversary! The runner is so cute, pick me me ME!
Happy Blogiversary, Tazzie!!! And a table runner all the way from down under? That would be just so incredible! Got my fingers crossed.
Happy blog anniversary Tazzie :-)
Every morning when I open Bloglines you are on my top-10-to-read-now-list.
The table runner is a beauty, but I usually have more luck in love than in games ;-)
Have a nice day!
Happy bloogiversary. It has been a pleasure to read your blog through out the last year. I look forward to another years of reads.
Well, who wouldn't want a treasure from Tazzie? Please pick me, please pick me!
Happy Blog Anniversary - keep it up - you are one of my favorites!
Hi Tazzie, and congrats on your year of blogging. I love the table
runner, but of course I love everything that you make. Oh yes
I finished my GS and GD'S quilts.
Yeppie. Neither are perfect but
I love both of them.
Hugs Janice
It's a lovely runner, Tazzie, and you continue to amaze/inspire me with how FAST you are, girlfriend!! :D Happy Blogiversary!!
Happy Anniversary! Lovely table runner!!
Hi Tazzie! Your tablerunner is really lovely. Was it hard to do the "pointy" binding? I've strayed away from angled quilt pieces because I'm not sure I could handle the points properly when it came to the binding.
Happy Blogiversary. . .you definitely inspire me to "git 'er done". . . have you considered inspirational tapes??? Just a thought! LOL
I have been reading your blog for a few months now. I love Thimbleberries fabrics so of course gotta love everything you make! Happy bloggiversary, Tazzie!
Karleen in Washington
Happy Blogiversary, Tazzie! What a great use of that Thimbleberries pre-printed fabric! I never did the Lazy Crazy BOM and don't think I have any of that, but I DO have other pre-printed fabrics, and you've inspired me! Thanks!
Happy Blogiversary!!!

Hi Tazzie- Congratulations on keeping up with a blog for a year- amazing- How many times can I enter for the tablerunner????
Donna is here with me and we are reading what your blog-we go to our meeting tonight-wish you were here.
&:-D Linda
Zowee- your red quilt is lovely-lovely!!!! It puts that cheater cloth on those church ladies table to shame! Shame on them for fooling us!! What size is it?
Linda
My comment here will ensure someone else will win! LOL
The runner is gorgeous! Happy Blogiversary!
(Hugs)
I am one of (probably several) of the 56,000 visitors to your blog. Thanks Tazzie for taking time to showcase so many lovely projects. Your runner is great and beautifully coordinated in colour as usual. Well Done. Could you tell or show me/all of us if there is a good way to turn the binding on the non 90 degree angles of this shape runner. Maybe the only way if to use bias to bind with. Just this week I have fiddled for ages to get neat binding on a similar shaped table runner.
I love the way blog give-aways bring out the comments! Congratulations on your one year bloggiversary. I've enjoyed reading your posts for many months. The table runner is a great prize for the lucky winner.
Oh this runner is just gorgeous. Yours is one of the most inspiring blogs to me on the internet. I just love your fabric choices, and scrappy/traditional taste. Thanks for sharing with us, and happy bloggiversary! :)
Hello Tazzie from a lurker! I read over 30 quilter blogs everyday and you're one of them. I would be honored to be chosen to own something quilted by you. You are an inspiration. I enjoy your photos.
Congrats on the bloggiversary! I enjoy reading your blog & seeing your quilts. Thanks for giving us all a chance to win your lovely table runner!
Very pretty runner. Congrats on your anniversary :)
Congrats on your first year! It took me a while (almost a year) before jumping in and joining blogland and I'm so happy I did. Here's to many more years and your fabulous eye candy!
Happy bloggiversary, Tazzie!!! Keep up the good work! It's always inspiration to find on your blog :o)
Happy blogiversary! Thanks for all of the inspiration!
Happy Bloggiversary. I have been reading blogs for a few months. Your blog is one that I read regularly. I have been blogging since Saturday.
Love the table runner.
Well why not - cheaters or otherwise, that is a very nice runner and would look marvelous in my dining room. I'm just at about 3 months blogging, so will take my turn next year.
Cheers!
Wow Tazzie, I would love to win that. Please include me. Also happy anniversary.
ciao,
happy blog anniversary.
Is wonderful have so many friends in tha wordl.
ciao ciao
Hi Tazzie,
Meant to tell you, I LOVE your red quilt!! 71 comments...WOW. My chances are diminishing!! Linda and I went shopping today and each bought the same kit~~heaven help us~~we really needed another kit. Don't think we should keep shopping together, except it is such fun.
Donna Dale
I feel fortunate to have run across your blog...I never knew that Itsy Shop existed...so I learned something new in addition to a simple blog read. Love pictures as they inspire me to get off the computer and get busy!
Guess what?! I am always checking your blog for new entries and wondered why you hadn't posted anything since April 30. Today I realised that when I saved you into my 'favourites' the address was saved with that entry and not the main page! Doh! Its OK, I'm with it now! LOL! Beautiful table runner and Happy Anniversary!
Congrats on your year aniversary!! Enjoy your blog!!
Well who could possibly turn down an opportunity to win your lovely gift - please add me to the hopefuls. :) And congrats on your blogversary.
I'm a first time visitor - but please include me too! Happy blogiversary! Lucy
Tazzie,I love your runner, didn't want to miss out but it seems my posts haven't appeared. Guess I need to do that crazy thing at the bottom.
Keep up the good work. Remember QH? Eileen
Oh happy anniversary! I love the table runner! I'm finally getting a chance to catch up!
Hi Tazzie, Here I go again - falling behind on my reading and missing a chance to win something. A very belated happy blog-anniversary to you! I love seeing all the wonderful work you do - what a wonderful thing this blogging world and Internet is that allow us all to share from opposite sides of the world!
Wow! What a deal..your anniversary and we get a chance at a gift. Happy Anniversary! Please pick me...or if not then share the pattern...I love it!
