Well, I went and forgot that my one-year blogging anniversary was yesterday. I think I had something else going on, though (winkwink).
In just one short year, I've met and made friends with SO many of you, and learned about so many other artists I didn't even know existed. I've been blessed with your wonderful and supportive comments, your funny emails that make me giggle, and your continued interest in my work. You're all special and I want to thank each of you!
So for the next week (though noon of June 9th) if you comment on this post, you'll be entered to win one of my large, hand-dyed cotton fabrics. I promise it'll be a nice one, too, none of those failed, "Why didn't the black work and play well with the yellow??" pieces, either!
(Please, if you must post anonymously, you must send me your name and contact info in private email, otherwise, I'll have no way of sending you your prize if you win!)
Happy Blogiversary to me!

Congrats on your one year anniversary. I have been following your blog for a while and really enjoy your surface design work. Your last post about stamps was wonderful as well. I don't comment as often as I'd like due to time constraints but keep up the good work.
Congratulations on your first blogversary Judi. I have been enjoying your blog for a while and would love to have the chance to win a piece of your beautiful fabric. I enjoy dyeing fabric myself and it is fascinating to see other dyers results.
I hope you continue to enjoy your blogging journey :o)
I admire your blog and art so much, and I'm so glad that you're having this giveaway--Thank You!!

Just found your blog through ComplexCloth. I don't expect to be listed in the draw, but wanted to say that I'm so glad I've 'found you!'. Congrats on the blogerversary, and I'm looking forward to following.
June was a great month to begin blogging. I had to go check my start. You are the front runner! And if I won I'd put up the prize where I could see it so I'd have something to aspire to. So glad you are blogging and blessing us with your blog!
Judi, I would give my eye teeth to win one of your wonderful fabrics! And thanks so much for your terrific stamp tutorial. I think you should submit it as an article to Cloth Paper Scissors or Quilting Arts - they would love it!
Judith
Hi I just found your blog from being a sometimes lurker on the Dyers List! Lucky me that I found it when you had such a fantastic stamping tutorial AND a giveaway!! I'll be checking back.
Happy Anniversary! I really enjoy your blog and find your work very inspiring. Here's to another great art year!
Nice work, Judi. I really appreciate your posting on creating your own stamps - it's the best all-in-one-place set of instructions I've found on the subject!
Hi Judi, Congratulations on your anniversary. I had one of those myself recently and forgot all about it, so, I lift a cup of paint to you and wish you many more years of time in the studio and your blogging pursuits.
Wow is all I can say about everything I've seen posted here and all your ideas make me think. I'm now going to have to live another 50 yrs to try things out. Your blog is the only one I have ever bookmarked! Keep up the good work!
I love your blog - I especially love all of your flour paste experiments and your stamping tutorial. Thanks Judi!!
Good grief, 72 comments aleady, you're certainly doing something right! I have a give-away going on my blog celebrating 5 years so I know what it takes to keep a blog going. Congrats!
Happy blogaversary, Judi! I have been enjoying reading your blog since my first visit and don't think I have seen a non-nice fabric here. Thanks for being so inspiring!
Happy anniversary Judi!
Your blog is always an inspiration!!
Happy anniversary!

Lucky me - I discovered your blog and your first anniversary. here's to many more!
Happy Blogiversary!
Happy Anniversary! One whole year. That's great. And I'd love to win some of your beautiful hand-dyed fabrics. However, I must disagree with the idea that there are any ugly or failed attempts. There are simply those that follow their own path! LOL!
Diane in Eastern NC
Thanks for this giveaway Judi. Your blog is inspiring and I'm glad I met you on the net.
i've been enjoying reading your blog, and love the fabric you've created. and now i've just bought your kindle e-book!
Congratulations! Lots of good stuff on your blog. Looking forward to more.
Hey Judi,
Many congratulations on your anniversary. I like to say that "those" pieces aren't really dye dogs -- just pieces waiting for something more to happen to them!!
Keep up the good work! Marcia
Congrats on your 1st year anniversary! I have enjoyed your experiments immensely so please keep us up to date on your happenings!

Just found you after doing a stamp search. Love your blog but haven't gotten to the how to stamp post yet.
Great series on making your own stamps, Judi. Congratulations!!
A year.. really? where did the time go?
What a wonderful give-a-way! I am also enjoying your blog. It IS amazing how fast a year goes, isn't it? :)
Your work is wonderful! My favorite is CS-NO6. Thanks for sharing your beautiful art.
Stacy West
Wow, Judi! A give away of your fabric--I'd enter 100 comments for a chance at that. Thanks and congratulations on your 'Blogiversary.'
Wonderful work. Please let me win, I could use the inspiration.

Happy blog-i-versary! I loved your tutorial on making stamps - very inspiring, as I, too, can't draw. You gave me tons of ideas that I am looking forward to trying!
Congrats on your anniversary. My, how time flies when we are having fun. The weekends are but a moment long, while the work-week just drags by. It just doesn't seem fair does it?
Here's wishing you many more creative days.....
Thanks for the nudge on QA today to guide me to your blog. The tutorial on stamping is really informative and well done. I've had scads of those materials in my possession and now have all kinds of ideas for using them..
Happy Blogiversary! Looking forward to more wonderful art this coming year.
An anniversary for you! That's great may you enjoy many more. :)
thanks for the opportunity to win, very generous.
Happy Blog anniversary! I love all of your stuff, esp. the fabric. I can't figure out why, but the crackle art really spoke to the inner artist in me. Keep it up!
