And the TWO winners of <i>ReSew</i> are...

I couldn't help it. I had an idea for a weird way to choose a random winner for this past weekend's giveaway of ReSew--which, by the way, was the most fun I've ever had with this little blog, thanks to Dana and Rae's Celebrate the BOY month. Thank you for all the encouraging and kind comments! I giggled all weekend.


Anyway, back to the weird way to choose a random winner. I had an idea, but it needed to include both my boys, Jack and Charlie, to really make it fair. (If you have more than one child, you know what I'm talking about.) So, here's what we did:


1. I printed out nine sheets full of numbers.

 2. I cut the sheets into 431 squares. One for each totally awesome giveaway participant.

 3. Then I put the bowl of paper numbers on the floor and let the madness ensue.

Random indeed!

Comment #187 comes from Beth, who said...



"I have 3 boys of my own and finding time to slow down is sometimes
hard but definitely necessary. LOVE the hat, mittens & scarf :) Thanks!"


Three of 'em, huh? A toast to you! And a free book too.

Thanks to all of you who dropped by the wildcards this weekend! And if you didn't win this time, there are still 11 more chances to win your own copy of ReSew during the INCREDIBLE RESEW BLOG TOUR, which you can learn more about here.
