To everyone who entered our very first giveaway, sharing stories of mothers and grandmothers, of moments and memories, from the bottom of our hearts—thank you. It's you who are the inspiration for us, and we cherish you very much. Of course, in all of my spring cleaning, I wish I'd found three hundred or so sets of berry servers to send—give me a few more weeks and I might!—but for now, there's only the one.
Now in picking a winner, Jaithan and I thought it only fair to do it by random. So after a quick couple of numbers plugged in here, outcame the result: Lucky 102! And the winner is...deep breath...Ashley of South Burlington, Vermont who, by the way, has a very cool quilting and sewing blog called Film In The Fridge. Congratulations, Ashley!
Thank you again for entering our first giveaway, everyone! These lilacs are for you!
those lilacs are like candy for my eyes! I can smell them and feel it's spring again!

so i am sitting watching Sony Style after returning home late at night from the kitchen here in Hong Kong
and I see someone who looks and sounds like someone from my past
and your sense of humor never changes
maybe we can touch base when i come to the city
cheers Suzanne Storms

Congratulations to Ashley! That was fun.The bow on those spoons is just perfect and in such a lovely colour. Thanks for the lilacs, Eddie. They are so full and pretty. It feels so reassuring to know that any visit to your site brings a big does of beauty. It's the nutrient I need most.
Isn't it interesting, and wonderful, that Ashley has been giving away so much on her own blog, finds this beautiful Website, then wins the pretty spoons? Perhaps this story is crafting a little quilt of its own: kindness and beauty on the Web.
