My Pay-It-Forward Giveaway

Last month, I won 4 pretty plates

in Marty's


"Pay-It-Forward" giveaway on her blog,
A Stroll Thru Life.

Thank you, Marty!!


In order to comply, I am going

to give away 3 hemstitched linen

hand towels that I

will monogram with your choice of initial.

The above towel is an example that is

going to Marty as a "thank you" gift.


Shhhh.....don't tell her!


The one above is done with a different frame

from the Martha Pullen IEC collection.


It also has a silk ribbon woven through

the hemstitched area.

A towel like this would make a nice

hostess or Christmas gift.

It looks pretty hanging over

an antique washstand or

near the guest bath sink.




This is my way of saying "thank you" &

to pay it forward to all who

have welcomed me

so warmly to blogland & have

made this such a fun & creative endeavor!


To be entered once into the drawing

to win one of these towels with

monogramed initial of your choice


all you have to do is leave a

comment to this post.


If you are a follower,

you will automatically be entered

a second time into the drawing.

If you're not, I would love to have you join me.

If you mention my giveaway on

YOUR blog with a link back to

"The Gazebo House"

you will be entered

a third time.
(please let me know if you do this.)


I finally got my button to work (whew!)

so you are welcome to add that to


your blog if you would like.
Everyone may enter whether you have a blog or not. If you don't have a blog, please leave your email address in your comment (with the @ changed to 'AT" for security) so I will know how to contact you if you win.


Giveaway ends at 5 pm EST on

Wed. Oct. 14th

I will have my grandson, Charlie

draw the 3 winning entries

since that's his birthday!

Oh & I almost forgot to tell you,

each winner will also get a


copy of Paula Deen's magazine

Holiday Baking, 2009

Remember, if you win

you also have to agree to

"Pay it Forward" & hold a

giveaway of your own.

Thanks for participating & Good Luck!

  7. The tea towel is beautiful. It would also be beautiful made into a pillow.

    I would also pay it forward. I could give away one of my Halloween garlands. I'll keep my fingers crossed.
