A Surprise!!

A few months ago I attended a ski club party. It's a great group of people. My husband has been a member of this group for well, a whole lot of years, and I mean a WHOLE LOT of years!! One of the ladies who has also been a member for quite some time told me that she has a lot of wool crepe that she will no longer use and wondered if I would like to have it. Who turns down wool crepe? Of course I would like to have it. Well, it arrived yesterday, and there is a lot of fabric. There are 4 colors, black, camel, dove grey, and a beautiful deep teal blue. 
Tomorrow is my birthday, a special birthday, 12/12/12. Not many of us get to have such a birthday, so in honor of this wonderful lady who so graciously gifted me with a lot of fabric and this special birthday, I will be giving away 3 yards of each piece. It's 60" wide by the way. One 3 yard piece today, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. I think it's a lovely way to celebrate my birthday week :-)
Below is today's piece of fabric. It's the camel.
 A little closer view of the fabric.
So here are the rules, you must be a follower, you know that pesky little box in the top right hand corner that says "join this site". Don't worry, if you haven't joined, you may do so today. If you win a piece of fabric, then you will not be eligible for another piece.
In order to be in the drawing, leave a message on this post letting me know that you would like a chance to win. So that's it,
1. Be a follower of this blog
2. Leave a message on this post stating that you would like a chance to win this piece of fabric.
3. You are only eligible to win one piece of fabric.
4. Leave a message by 8 a.m. central time Wednesday morning, 12/12/12.
Easy! I will ship the fabric anywhere. Hopefully no one lives on the moon!!!! Today's winner will be announced tomorrow and the next piece of fabric will be posted.
Good Luck!!!
