Fairness is a tough topic to balance, and it is something I strive to keep in balance in my life. For giveaways, I give the winner a week to get back in touch with me (and I send several emails). If I don’t hear back by a clearly communicated deadline, I select a new winner. You may have just seen that play out with the Fabri-Quilt Marine Hues (winner 1 and winner 2). Well, Patricia (winner 1) saw my first email and contacted me on September 1st and was quite excited to have won. She had been on vacation and away from email. I can totally appreciate the need to unplug, so I decided to make it right and I sent her a bundle of fabric from my stash in her favorite color: blue. I hope she enjoys the bundle I put together for her.
Don’t miss out on today’s Jaftex 85th Anniversary blog post:
September 6 – Heather @ Heather Kojan Quilts
So nice of you and blue bundle too!
That is a good and sweet thing to you did Yvonne! A pretty fabric bundle too!
Good for you! And congrats to BOTH the winners 🙂
Love the bundle you put together for her. It is a thoughtful and kind thing to do and I’m sure Patricia appreciates it!
I am not a blue person but love the bundle you put together for her, that was a very kind and generous thing to do.
That was a beautiful grouping of blues you put together for her, and very generous of you!
What a wonderful blue bundle, Yvonne and so “you” to make it right by sending it to Patricia 🙂
I would expect nothing less of you than to make it right! I’m sure the winner is very happy and will be happy with beautiful blue bundle! You are so kind and it shows in every post Yvonne!
I love the bundle, it was more than I expected! Thank you!
What a sweet idea. You are so generous.
More than fair, Yvonne. Filled with kindness and compassion.
That was a very kind and generous thing you did.
That was a really nice thing for you to do. Life does sometimes get in the way and although rules are made, sometimes there are good reasons to stretch them. Thank you for being so generous.
That was so generous of you to do. I like to think the good quilting/fabric karma will come back to you. 🙂
That was a very generous thing for you to do. I have luckily never had a winner not respond but I did accidentally pick the wrong winner once (before I had comments numbered). I luckily had bought two of the bundle I was going to give away, one for the giveaway and one for myself so I just wound up giving both away.
Lovely bundle, and I’m sure you made her day.
I’m not surprised. You’re very considerate and sweet. Nicely done!
