I have made lots of bloggy friends and joined in quite a few swaps. Thank you to everyone who has traveled this journey with me. Hopefully there is lots more ahead!
To celebrate this occasion I'm having giveaway. I have a bundle of 50 fabric hexagons (each one a different colour) and 50 papers to get you going making hexagons.
GIVEAWAY NOW CLOSED
My favourite colour is pink and I've had it EVERYWHERE in my life. I've got a pink sheet set for the bed (although it doesn't get used much since I married), pink shoes, I've had every type of pink clothing (skirt, dress, top, underwear etc), I even contemplated pink carpet for my sewing room when we were building our house. My favourite of all would have to be my pink hair though. I don't have it any more but I loved it and often dream of doing it again.

The giveaway will end at 9pm (AEDT) Friday 4th November at which time I will close comments and randomly select a winner. For those of you around the world, this is more likely Friday morning your time, so don't miss out. I will announce the winner here on Friday night (my time) so make sure to check back and see if you've won.
My favorite colors are blue & yellow. I have it in my kitchen. A few years ago, I was tired of looking at our drab cupboards (cheap, trailer house cupboards), so I told my husband what I wanted to do and I got the go ahead. I took the doors and hardware off, and painted the cupboards a pale yellow. On the doors, I painted the same yellow, then applied crackling medium, and then a pale blue. Put new knobs on and I got exactly the effect I was after, and I still love them. The whole project, probably took me a couple months. Oh, and I do have two or three blue and yellow quilts, with a few more in the plans!
ReplyDeleteOh Happy bloggyversary!! :)
ReplyDeleteMy favourite colour is purple and I use it wherever I can. I love my purple tops and dresses - my blog is very purplish, and I have some pretty purple jewellery. We even had a 'colour' dinner party one time - everyone had to bring food in their themed colour - and we chose purple!! Amazing what food you can come up with that's purple!!!

My favorite color is green. All shades of green accent my house and clothing. For quilting right now I'm loving lime green! Congrats on the anniversary!
ReplyDeleteBlue, of course! But I mostly use it in clothes. It is a little much in a house, but I am starting to sneak it in. Thanks for the giveaway chance.
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogaversary to you, Karen! Don't enter me in the give-away, although I'm happy to tell you my favorite color is pink also, lol! Never had pink hair, but it used to be rather red. Now it's just SILVER.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite colour is red. I wear red shirts and jackets and I love to use red in my quilts and other sewing projects. I think red is a more versatile neutral than white, black or beige....
ReplyDeleteWould love to enter your swap please. My favourite colour would have to be blue, especially the blue of the sky which I just love. I use blue everywhere that I can get away with...in my kitchen my work surfaces are blue and I have a blue wall. The crochet blanket on my bed is blue and I am hoping to eventually have a blue hexie flower quilt!
ReplyDeleteLove the pink hair...I always quite fancied having purple hair, but never plucked up the courage...
My favourite colour is red. The foods I eat, the lip stick I put on, the clothes wear, the sun sets I see, the colour of my face when I am about to explode.... Red everywhere.
ReplyDeleteFavorite colour...it has changed over the years...loving red lately...
ReplyDeletePurple is my favourite colour - always has been. I try to accessorise my room with purple as much as possible, especially when it comes to craft stash. Even my sewing machine has purple on it!

Blue - absolutely blue - but i also likes green and purple. Clear strong colours - thats me ;-)
ReplyDeletePink is also my favourite colour. I use it wherever possible and can't seem to keep away from it! The house I'm living in even had a bright pink living room when we moved in ... I managed to keep it that way for a few years!!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite color is blue. I use it mostly in my wardrobe. Although, when we repainted our tiny master bathroom a few years, we painted it royal blue and added whit crown molding. THink we'll have to repaint it if we ever sell the house - lol!
ReplyDeleteFun question! Congrats on the 2 year anniversary :) My favorite color is turquoise. It shows up in most of my quilts, my clothes, and it will be the color of the walls in my sewing room once our new house is done.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your second blogiversary!! Green is my favorite color but I never object to a little pink thrown in there every once in awhile. Thanks for the opportunity to enter your great giveaway!

Happy Blogiversary! You look great in pink hair. Definitely do it again. My favorite color is blue.....no, yellow....no, pink. or green. I like all of them, and they're all used in my house. Living roon, dining room, and kitchen all feature blue and yellow. Bedrooms are combos of pink and green. Although more green now that I'm married.
ReplyDeleteHi Karen
ReplyDeletePink is a lovely colour, I had it allover when I was younger :o) Now it turned to turkise and green blue that I like the most. Two years goes fast. The Blogworld is fascination. We got inspired by eachother in many ways and get new friends from all over the world. Really Fascination.
All the best for you and your blog in the Future.

ReplyDeleteCongrats on your blog anniversary! I also love Pink! In my new sewing room I had a brown carpet to work with so I painted the walls a cream and then painted my furniture light pink ( book shelf, shelves, cutting table, ironing table/book case) Love it! Would also love trying hexies.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your blogaversary. My favorite color is red. I finally made myself a bed quilt of red and white. I always look at red jackets and coats first.
ReplyDeleteI love all the colors of the rainbow! I tend to lean toward pink and purple, but I've always said my favorite color is green because it goes well with my red hair. ;)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your blog anniversary. I love blues with brown and pinks with brown they are my favorite combinations. I guess my favorite is anything in the blue family. I never worked with hexies, but would love to learn. Thanks for such a wonderful offer.

Oh I used to have pink carpet in our house - that was back in the 80's and it was called mauve. I LOVE all the colors even white and they all seem to be my favorites at one time or another. But real favorite is yellow - it's problem is a little goes a long way so I have to use it in little dabs to let it be at it's best.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your bloganniversary and more to come!!Green is my fav but also like aqua with brown,blue,red...Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite color? Red. I've got it in my bedroom, and as accent colors in my kitchen and den. I love wearing red, but hate washing the colors, because they always seem to fade.
ReplyDeleteLove your pink hair! You should do it again! Definnitely.
Happy Blogaversary and congrats on passing this milestone. Favorite color is blue and wear blue jeans most days, decorate with blue, and make quilts with various shades of blue. Thanks for the giveaway to celebrate.
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile, my niece is a hair stylist who colored my grandniece's hair pink and orange (temp dyes) for Halloween along with pink and orange feathers. It actually looked good.
Happy, happy blogiversary! Hope you have many, many more to come!
ReplyDeleteBlue has always been my favorite, but lately I've been loving orange! Go figure! Thanks for the chance to win the hexies!
Anything in the Fall colors palette inspires me. My favorite color is red. I've been trying to inspire myself to make hexies. It looks like so much fun.
