One World One Heart 2011

 Hi, my name is Kathy...and I'm a Needle Artist. My love is anything stitched...quilts, crazy quilts, crochet, cross-stitch, beads, embroidery,...you get the idea I'm sure. If this is your first visit, it is probably because of OWOH 2011...and if not, read on and I'll tell you all about it...and give away a gorgeous Swarvoski perle and crystal necklace that I created.

I am proud to participate in the 2011 One World One Heart Event!!

One World One Heart is a worldwide event for bloggers only. It gives all those who blog a chance to meet and mingle and form connections with those they may not have otherwise met from all over the world. In the past 4 years this event has grown to over 1,000 participants with lasting friendships (and even one love connection) formed along the way.  Think of it as a GIGANTIC open house allowing you to travel without ever leaving your home........going from blog to blog(in various countries) seeing the wonder each one has created and meeting all the fabulous people behind those blogs. As a bonus each blogger participant will offer up a "door prize or prizes"....just for dropping by, saying hello and seeing their world.  It's really that easy.

And here is our door prize at Shawkl!!! A stunningly gorgeous pearl and crystal necklace!

The pendant is a vintage drop, and is spectacular! My blog reflects my current passion for beading in jewelry and in crazy quilt embellishments...and my constant needle-art adventures.While you are here...look around...I post a lot! And many of those posts are of the How-to nature...in some type of stitching or beading. So, hope you enjoy your visit!

THEN, leave a comment to this post so you will be entered in the drawing!...and at the end of the event (Feb.17) I will choose the winner of my necklace by use of a random number generator. The winner will be announced on my blog on the 18th of February...and I will attempt to email the person or persons to let them know they have won (so make sure your profile is up to date so your email is accessible)...I will also ask for a mailing address in that winner email. All bloggers are eligible...this is open internationally!!

The door prize will be mailed out within 3 days AFTER the event ends. So, happy One World One Heart!!!

We have a WINNER...Congrats to Naomi of Beeshebags! And she has replied to her notice email and I'll be sending the necklace off to Australia! For those that did not win...and I'm sorry (I didn't win anything this year either)...but stick around, my daughter's birthday is the 4th of March...and I'll be having a give-a-way to celebrate! So check back then!
