BLOG GIVEAWAY: 160 yards fabric rag yarn!

You could win this assortment of 160 yards of fabric rag yarn!
A value of $15.00 plus shipping and handling!

What is fabric rag yarn?
Fabric yarn is meant to compliment ANY of my RAG BAG patterns you see listed in my shop. OR, they are just perfect for any of your rag craft projects!
Approx 18-20 strips are in each bag.
Each of the strips is 1" wide.
Total yardage is approx. 160 yards!
There is enough fabric here to make any of the rag bags. The feedback I receive from knitters and crocheters with the yardage is that they have about enough to make 1-1.5 bags with each "bag of fabric"...Of course, it depends on how tightly you knit/crochet and what size pattern/bag you are making!

How can I win, you ask? It's easy...here's how!
Visit my new online shop, heatherknitz and do the following 2 things:

1. Choose your favorite item in my shop and report it here in the comments thread!
2. You be the designer...look through my current listings and make me at least ONE SUGGESTION on what I should add to my line of products:)

*Anyone in the U.S. 18 years of age or older can join!
*The winner will receive the fabric rag yarn seen above via US mail!
*ONE winner will be selected using random.org!
*Do all of this by Friday, February 27th, 2009!
Contest ends at 11:50 e.s.t on the 27th!
Good Luck,
Heather
