One World One Heart (OWOH) is an annual event created in 2007 by Lisa of a Whimsical Bohemian . Her dream was to bring bloggers from all over the world together. She hoped that people who wouldn't normally meet could find each other through this event. She knew that once we found these new and wonderful people that our lives would be enriched beyond measure.

"The better part of one's life consists of his friendships."
~Abraham Lincoln

I have only been blogging a short time, but I have already met some amazing people in "blog land".  I hope that through this event that I will meet many more. Take off your shoes, get comfortable and I hope you will stay awhile. While you are here, please leave a comment and tell me something about YOU. If you leave a link to your blog, I will return the visit!

Now for the fun stuff!! As a thank you for visiting my blog during the

One World One Heart event I am having a give away!!

"Giving is the secret of abundance."

I have made this adorable little friendship bag using a pattern from Rachel Griffin of p.s. i quilt. The fabrics I used are from Moda's Hello Betty line (designed by Chloe's Closet). I know the bag looks big in the first photo, if you look at the second photo the ruler will give you a better idea of its size.

Inside the bag are some (surprise) goodies from New Hampshire, USA. I thought it would be fun to share some of these little things so the winner could share a bit of my home. (Who knows what I may decide to throw in the bag!?)

 

(The bag looked SO big in the first photo,

I put a 12" ruler in the bag so you can see how tall it is.)

 NOW for the rules (from OWOH):

Everyone must leave a comment to be eligible to win and they must have a way to link back to them OR leave an email address so they can be contacted if they should win.(If I can't contact you, then I will have to pick someone else). ONE ENTRY PER PERSON. I will randomly choose the winner from all comments received. If I don't hear back from the winner by Friday February 19th, 2010, I will choose another name.

This give away is open to all visitors, from all over the world! The more the merrier!

The giveaway begins today (1/25/2010) and ends February 15, 2010. 

The winner will be announced at that time. 

Thank you for stopping by for the One World One Heart Event. I hope you had fun while you were here and I hope that once this event is over that you will come back and visit soon.
