Remember the Wisecraft Handmade book release contest I entered at the end of October? Well, guess what? I won! I found out yesterday during Goen's nap. I was perusing my favorite sites when I noticed this post on the Wisecraft Handmade blog. As soon as I saw the title "Contest Winner" I got super excited and anxious all at the same time. I forced myself to only scroll down far enough to read the next line, partly to hold off the excitement and partly because I was afraid I would be disappointed. When I finally got to the end of the post and saw my name (in lights, it seemed), I almost squealed. No lie. I had to put my hand over my mouth just in case one accidentally slipped out. I was finally able to do my Happy Dance after Goen woke up. I danced around the room with him singing out loud. He enjoyed it so much he kept asking for more. So we spent the next half hour spinning, sashaying, and squealing delightedly around the room until I got dizzy and had to stop. I emailed my address immediately, of course, and am now eagerly awaiting my prize in the mail. I'll be sure to show it off as soon as it arrives. Eep! I'm so excited! And, just so you can share in my excitement, here is a little reenactment of my happy dance.

There's something about winning a contest that makes you feel super special, especially when a lot of people are involved. And, in a strange way, it makes the world feel just a little bit smaller. Or is it just me?

Hi. My name is Carley. I love to sew, craft, and create. As a Jane-of all-crafts so to speak, I enjoy sewing, writing, cooking, drawing, photographing. But the constant thread (if you'll excuse the pun) throughout my weeks is needle arts. Archives
