Thank Goodness! I am a winner too!

I can't believe it but I was picked from over 1,500 people and won this contest! Elizabeth of Oh, Fransson had a May giveaway day on her blog as well last week and it was a giveaway contest. The contestants had to post the inspiration you would like Elizabeth to use for your quilt. I submitted my idea about making quilt inspired by Tokyo subway map. Then I saw more than 1,500 people posted comments, that made me think there was no way to win. But, OH THANK GOODNESS! She chose my idea! I am so honored to be chosen and it made my day (maybe not only a day) of course.

Here is the sketch of the subway quilt Elizabeth drew. And you can see the fabrics she picked for this quilt on her blog. I love them especially polka dots ones.

I just cannot wait to see how she will make it! And she will send the quilt to me? Again, unbelievable!


And what's more? I will get this Robert Kaufman quilter's linen bundle? That makes me swim! They are my favorite colors! Thank you Elizabeth!

    Yes, Elizabeth's Tokyo quilt looks great! I still can't believe that is going to come to me!
    We are planning going to Japan this summer. I miss so many things in Japan. I can't wait to go shopping at new Yuzawaya in Shinjuku (I used to go to kichijoji when I lived in Tokyo)!
    Thank you!

    Hello a.niza!
    Thank you for visiting this blog. I have several ideas how I should spend the bundle I have won. But I still cannot decide what is the best way to go. It is so much fun to think about it. I am enjoying it!
