I do want to thank Dragon Threads for asking SewCalGal to participate in this fun blog hop and shipping a copy of the book directly a winner in the US. While SewCalGal appreciates all sponsors for Fun Friday giveaways, I also appreciate those that ship directly and they determine if the prize will be sent to a US, US/Canada or anyone worldwide. But, SewCalGal still absorbs the cost for shipping many prizes directly to winners and I absorb the expense of shipping to "followers" that can be located anywhere in the world. Unfortunately, shipping expenses have far exceeded what my personal funds can support, as well as those that I earn via paid advertisements (e.g. Adsense/AdChoices), along with donations from various "Postage Angels". Thus, I am not hosting a Fun Friday Giveaway this week. But, check back, as I am working with sponsors along with other ways to raise funds to offset shipping expenses, and hope to get back on track of having a new Fun Friday Giveaway every week very soon.
Congratulations to Rhonda D you are a winner of a copy of "Patchwork Style". Enjoy!
Congrats to Rhonda!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, SewCalGal...I'm loving sponsors that will ship to giveaway winners. It's the only way I can work mine. I hope you can find some innovative solutions - perhaps you can pass them along!
Hugs!
I think most of us are aware of the very expensive shipping costs, and wouldn't mind your asking every winner of a giveaway to pay the shipping. You are more than generous with your time and talent in providing all of us with reviews of noteworthy books and shows, not to mention the hugely time consuming FMQ Challenge! I don't think anyone would think less of you if you made it a requirement to enter a giveaway that the winner would pay shipping (unless sponsor agreed to do so). Just my 2-cents.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to Rhonda D!
ReplyDeleteI certainly understand the shipping cost dilemma, and agree with Quilting Babcia's suggestion.
WOW! I can't believe that I won!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the book. Thank
you so much for the giveaway!!
Rhonda
