Giveaway: Halloween Pumpkin Pin Cushion – ownership(ped)!

Here’s another giveaway. The first person to sing out the right answer wins!

Handmade in North Dakota by the Wooly Girls — from our sheep to you. (I bought this at The Creative Connection Event in September in St. Paul Minnesota.)

(Willie would like to wish you all a VERY Happy Halloween!) 🙂

In the early days, Willie sold one of his songs for $150 to help pay his bills. It has since become one of the most recorded songs of all time, selling over 30 million records by more than 70 artists, but Willie never made a dime in royalties from it. Name that song!

    Willie sold the song “Night Life” for $150, and since then over different artists have recorded it. A wonderful story of a man simply trying to support his family, by selling a song that he wrote.

    MaryJane,
    I just wanted to say a great big HUGE Thank You. I received the pumpkin pin cushion in todays mail and it is just awesome. So unique…It is already at home in my farmgirl craft room downstairs. Its almost just too pretty to use! The weather here is frightful today…heavy rain mixed with sleet and cold and windy. The package from 1000 Wild Iris Lane, warmed my heart and dappled sunshine on an otherwise dreary day.
    Thank you again!

  6. “Wow, great blog post.Really thank you! Awesome.”
