GO! Giveaway Winner!

Thank you all for taking the time to stop by and enter my giveaway for an Accuquilt GO! cutter.  The response has been overwhelming and I hope that you enjoyed your visit while here.

Well, my friend Mr. Random Number Generator selected a number but before I announce the winner, I’d just like to touch on a few things…so please indulge me.

I tried as best I could to stress that if you had your settings set as ‘no-reply’ then your comment would be automatically ignored because I’d have no way of getting in touch with you should your number have been drawn.   I even went back and edited my post to alert you to this but I think most people have the tendency to just skim giveaway posts and head straight for the comments without reading the post itself.  As a result, almost 40% of of those who entered my giveaway for a GO! cutter were automatically disqualified.  What a shame!  Thank you to those who chose to remain as ‘no-reply’ but read my post in it’s entirety  asking that they insert their email address into the body of their comment and did so.

For those of you who are not sure what ‘no-reply’ means, I would ask you to visit SewCalGal’s blog by clicking HERE.  If you scroll about halfway down the page, she explains it in detail.  Just think of how many opportunities you’ve missed out on and will continue to miss out on just because you can’t be contacted, not only here but on other blogs as well.

Now that I’ve gotten that off my chest, I’m pleased to announce that the winner of the GO! cutter is Karen of Briarside Lane.  Congratulations, Karen!  I will be contacting you for your mailing address.  In the interim, please visit the Accuquilt website HERE to select the three dies that you would like to accompany the GO!

Once again, thanks to all who entered.  And a special thanks to the Accuquilt company, not only for making these cool machines but also for their generosity by allowing us to host these giveaways.

Happy stitching!
