Thanks Leona!
Leona from Leona's Quilting Adventure sent me a sweet Birthday present!
That's a tissue holder with the Eiffel Tower on it, a mini journal decorated with vintage lady heads, a small spool of Aurifil thread, and some chocolates. Thanks Leona, I love my gift!

What's All the Hoopla?!
Good morning! Today I turn 30!
I thought I would wake up slightly depressed and a bit achy and fat, but mostly I'm just excited it's my birthday! And fat, but that's a whole other post :)
Hula-Hooping in Maui, pre-fat
I'm hosting a giveaway for my birthday! Yay! My first giveaway!
Did I ever mention that I love to Hula-Hoop?
I know, it's a weird hobby (so is quilting, by the way). I have an adult-sized hula hoop and have learned a few tricks. It's a great (lazy) way to do ab exercises and a good way to get your cardio in too! 30 minutes of hooping burns about 200 calories. And it's fun and sexy! I love to put some fabulous music on and hoop it out; practicing some tricks, twirls, and jumps!
Once you get the hang of playing with the hula-hoop, you can be a bit more adventurous. Light the hoop on fire!
This is a fire hoop. It actually comes with wicks to dip in white gas and alight. I don't have one, but I love playing with them whenever I get the chance. Which strangely, is more often than you'd think! (Disclaimer: I am wearing a bathing suit in this picture, it's just hard to see)
Which brings me to my giveaway! Don't worry, I'm not going to make you do a hoop-off or stand in a spinning ring of fire!
**All you do is leave a comment.
**For another entry, blog about this giveaway and link to this post. Come back and tell me about it.
That's it! If you'd like to follow, I'd appreciate it, but it's not required. What's the prize? Of course...
2 charm packs of Hoopla! Picture stolen from Green Fairy Quilts, where I bought them on sale! Sale ends tonight, so if you want to pick up some heavily-discounted fabric, do so now!
I will pick the winner in exactly one week. So enter by Monday, Jan 31 before I draw the winner! Good luck!
and Happy Hooping!
