Modern Basics, by Amy Ellis Blog Tour - Giveaway Winner

Today is the day to announce the winner of the copy of "Modern Basics", by Amy Ellis that is a giveaway from SewCalGal's stop in the fun blog hop for this excellent new quilt book. 


I used the Random number generator to select the winner.  Sadly, the first four names that were selected did not have settings that allow me to email them to let them know they are a winner. This is also known as "no reply bloggers" and are disqualified from this giveaway as well as mpst giveaways in blogland.  If you entered this giveaway and did not receive an email reply from me, the odds are your fall into this category.  And, if you never receive a reply from any comment you leave on any blog the odds are greater that your settings need to be changed (or yuo should leave your email address embedded in your comment).  I have screen shots and tips on how you can change your settings on the page of my blog labeled "giveaways".

There is still time to visit many of the blogs in this blog hop and win a copy of this book.  Each blogger is giving away a copy and has different dates for their giveaways.  So, you still have several chances to win by visiting the blogs in this hop.  Each has a different deadline:

Feb 21st - Piece N Quilt
Feb 22nd - SewCalGal
Feb 23rd - Old Red Barn
Feb 24th - Terri's Notebook
Feb 25th - Crazy Mom Quilts
Feb 26th - Wild Card Quilts
Feb 27th - BumbleBeans
Feb 28th - Fat Quarter Shop
Mar lst - One Shabby Chic
Mar 2nd - Canton Village Quilt Works
Mar 3rd - Diary of a Quilter
Mar 4th - Fat Quarterly
Mar 5th - Amylouwho

And, of course, you can also order a copy of this wonderful book from Martingale & Company's online store.  Or check it out at your local quilt store. 

Ok, time to announce the lucky winner.

I have sent Laura an email and she is very excited to have won a copy of "Modern Basics"!

Congratulations to Laura! Thanks for hosting a great giveaway. Trying to get some of those 'no-reply' bloggers to change their settings is a little like trying to get birds not to fly - well, not quite but sometimes is feels like it.
