You can find Lisa’s creative and artful blog here
http://awhimsicalbohemian.typepad.com/a_whimsical_bohemian/
This is the third year that Lisa has hosted this gathering, but it’s the first year that I have signed up to participate. The idea behind OWOH is to get as many participants as possible to join in. Lisa developed OWOH as a way for fellow bloggers to meet new and wonderful people from all walks of life.
If you go here
you will find the list of participants. There is no need to be signed up as a participant in order to participate. The idea behind Lisa’s dream is for fellow bloggers to visit one another …like visiting an ‘open house’. Each participant who signs up hosts an open house …at each home there is a sampling of goodies that you have a chance to take home like a door prize. At each home you visit, you leave a comment and on February 12th a winner from each OWOH participant will be announced. You must leave your comments on this post in order to be considered for the drawing. I will also need to be able to contact you in the event that you might be the winner of my giveaway, so be sure to leave a contact link.
MY ONE WORLD ONE HEART GIVEAWAY!
*****
FROM MY HEART TO YOURS!
My Giveaway is open to EVERYONE worldwide with an active blog.
You DO NOT have to be signed up as a participant to enter; you just need to have an active blog.
For my giveaway, I have lovingly knit a ‘Friendship Shawl’. I thought it appropriate given the meaning behind OWOH. The shawl is made from ‘Homespun’ yarn, a blend of 98% Acrylic and 2% Polyester. (I chose this yarn as to not rule out anyone whom might be allergic to any type of wool yarn.) It’s completely machine washable and dryable. The main body of the shawl is knit in an oatmeal color with three bands of color shaded from greens, to blues, to rusts. I finished off the ends of the shawl with a crocheted scalloped edge. Included with the shawl is a lovely handmade stickpin; ….and what would a shawl be without a book to cozy up with.
I have chosen James Patterson’s ‘Sundays at Tiffany’s’.
My gift!
From my heart to yours!
'SUNDAYS AT TIFFANY'S'
What if your imaginary friend from childhood was your one true love?
The shawl measures approximately 22" x 60"!
I’m so glad that you have taken time out to travel the road of OWOH. I wish you joy and happiness throughout your travels. I do hope that you meet new friends along the way or perhaps reacquaint yourself with old friends.
Please be sure to leave a comment on this post to be considered for this giveaway!
I will announce the winner on February 12th! Please leave a comment on this post to be entered.

How cozy to just wrap up in that beautiful shawl with a copy of Patterson, or another novelist, i front of a warm fire. How thoughtful of you! I REALLY want to visit as many sites as possible. I have just been amazed at the generosity and talent of the artists participating here. Bedtime is quite out of control. But what an amazing experience!! What a tribute to Lisa and our collective humanity!
It was great stopping in meeting you and looking around a bit.
If you have a chance please stop by to see me. I'm listed on the caravan as #515 Phoenix Rising.
See you there!
