So what does all this mean? Well, I am having a little giveaway today, as are many others who have linked up with the Leap Day Giveaway. This is what I'm giving away here.
I love spring, especially when the songbirds migrate back through this area from their wintering grounds. That's a few weeks away yet for us in the Upper Midwest, but these little bird print fabrics put me in the mood.

Love it all. Count me in.
I love that fabric! The mug rug is fantastic and I'd love to have one. I'm planning on making some but not for myself, so I need one :)
Thrifted is always good. Spring I like flowers and trees sprouting. Then about 10 min later I hate it as I start to sneeze so I have to take it in quickly before the eyes water.

Groovy thrifted anything is... well groovy! I love spring because I get to get outside and get my hands and feet in the dirt and watch my honey bees start making the honey that I'll be stealing from them in the fall!
What I love about Spring? Probably the weather, the fact that I don't have to wear dozens of layers just to nip to the shops! x

I love Spring! it's my favourite time of year - everything is just waking up and the days are getting longer and warmer, what's not to like??
I love the fabrics and I mostly like Spring for the babies that are everywhere and the flowers but I don't like the hayfever that comes with the flowers.
I love birds! And about spring, I do like when the sun comes back after winter and the birds are singing in the sky again.

Hi there :-) I hopped on over as part of the blog hop. Lovely to meet you.
I love the mug! We have a bit of a 'thing' for mugs in our house, so we have lots of them, but you can never have too many mugs :-)
Really love your mug rug too and the fabrics are so pretty.
My favourite thing about spring is planting new things in my garden, especially vegetables. Yum!
Please count me in, fingers crossed!

You just find the best fabrics. Those bird cages really caught my eye, and the little yellow birds in your mug rug are wonderful. The blues and the yellows in your little quilted masterpiece just sing.
That's how you "roll"!!!
One word "Daffodils" ;)
I love when the crocus start to bloom, I know it's Spring then :) thanks for the chance to win that beautiful Mug Rug.
Outstanding giveaway! I love spring flowers and goldfinches in their summer colors. I hate severe weather like we're supposed to be getting today!
Spring, spring is gardening time, digging for days, choosing seeds, trimming the last bushes, hedges and trees, it's the time of wardrobe changing, that means spring summer stuff out and autumn winter stuff away - I should mention that I have a tiny wardrobe. Spring si the return of colour and sun and the first sunburn of the year and the run right afterwards to buy new sun screen ... Thanks for the lovely give away (btw. the mug is great!)
Congrats on 2 yrs, love the blog, love the pictures and stories!lak
Thanks for the chance to win! The fabrics match my decor!!
These bird fabrics are wonderful - and we enjoy birds in this household. Thank you for the lovely giveaway of cup, mug rug, and fabric. This hop was a surprise so will be doing some of it and then maybe clean house and sew.
Love the fabric. Love the mug and rug. thanks for the chance to win. I love spring flowers. My favorites are hyacinth. They smell so good. When my lilac bush blooms, I fill my house with them.
I am thinking about using birds for a shower I am giving in a couple of months. How great this would be to add to my list of stuff I could use! I love these fabrics. We saw robins here last week, i thought it was a bit early, but they were here none the less! Thanks for the chance.
Congratulations on 2 years of blogging! I love blogging and reading blogs, too. I'm glad that I found yours! :) Love, love, love all the BIRD fabric!!!! Thanks for posting the fabric names/designers. I love the one with the bird cage. My favorite thing about spring is flower gardening and all the new things popping out...love watching birds building nests in my birdhouses scattered all around, too. Thanks for the chance to win all your lovely prizes. debgiro at wildblue dot net
absolutelu love your giveaway. thanks. I love seeing the daffodils in the spring as they are my favorite flowers.
What a lovely giveaway! Thanks for the chance! I like switching to DST in the spring!
I like to see the redbuds in bloom in spring. It's such an unusual color against the hillsides.
I don't want the mug--will save on your shipping!
My favorite thing about spring is the way that the air smells when spring has finally arrived. It gives me hope that I don't have to stare at snow anymore.
Spring flowers!
Oh so pretty! I love birds -have 4 feeders. One spring we had a Cardinals nest in our cypress bush, right next to our patio. SO, I always hope they will come back.
Your giveaway definitely looks like spring to me. I love everything about spring and I'd love to win your giveaway. Thanks for the opportunity.
What a great giveaway! Love your little mug rug! I love watching all the flowers come up in my garden in the Spring.
The best part of spring for me is the flowers and all the brighter colors that everyone is wearing. No more darks that I see all winter. Very cute mug rug.
Spring means warmer weather, more sunshine and color appearing everywhere.
Luv your mug rug...look like spring with the birds and luv the yellow!! I luv spring flowers....especially daffodils!! Thanks for the chance and Happy Leap Day...(o:
oooo Spring is my favorite time of year. I love hearing the birds singing and seeing all the beautiful blooms bursting with color. Thanks for the great giveaway :-)
Those fabrics are gorgeous. Love the mug and the mug rug too!!
I love the sounds all the birds make in spring it's nice to slowly take a walk =D
I love all the spring flowers!
I usually love spring but this year, all that wind is driving me, and my allergies, nuts.
Love daffodils and tulips in the spring. HAPPY LEAP DAY TO YOU AND YOURS!
Love the birds! They could join some I already have in my stash. I've got to say spring is my favorite season. I sure can't complain about the winter we've had this year, but the sounds of the birds coming back and getting busy, the flowers blooming, even the grass beginning to need mowing. I'm a fan.
Thanks for the opportunity!
LOVE your giveaway prize!! :-) Thank you for the chance to win! The thing that I love about Spring is all the pretty colors that emerge from the Earth!! Apple green grass, yellow daffodils, pink redbud blossoms, white dogwood trees in bloom, bright blue skies.... :)
Thanks for the chance to win your cheery giveaway. Spring is on its way.
Oh, that is beyond cute! What I like best about spring is the flowers.
That is an awesome mug - it so goes with the fabric
:D What is there to not like about spring? Flowers and leaves popping out all over, birds getting songier, people getting peppier. . . Love it all!
Oh my goodness! I LOVE birds! I love spring. I love mug rugs. I love coffee.... I love YOU for sharing! (spring = flowers and longer days. yay!) Happy Leap Day.

I love Spring because I'm a Spring baby! ;) Actually, as a kid, I always looked forward to Spring because it meant my favorite flowers would bloom: daffodils.
Thanks for the contest!
I love the Sunshine!!!!! Oh so happy sunshine!!!
Your mug rug is adorable!!!! I just love the colors of spring - the lime greens, pinks, yellows, lavenders.
I love warmer weather, birds singing and flowers blooming in spring.
Loving this blog hop for leap day! Thanks for hosting a give a way!
Spring is my favorite season and I it's because of the birds. I know it is not spring yet but the birds were singing this morning!
I love, love, love, the birdie fabric & believe it or not, I don't own a mug rug! but I do have alot of "favorite" coffee mugs & would add yours to my collection if I win - thanks so much for the chance. We are in the middle of a snowstorm - 14 inches so far, so I can't even begin to think about Spring!!! (northern Wisconsin)
Oh my goodness! I collect mugs and that's a real cutie! And I also LOVE birds, so I think this giveaway has my name on it! =^..^=
How cute are these? Oh man, I'm totally a fan!
Great prizes. Thanks for offering. I love the fabric choices.
I love Spring. The transitionness of it. The hopefulness that includes feet of wet snow and little bits of green poking out. Some years if I'm lucky it also means rain--which I really miss living in the high mountain desert. Our Spring last well into June most of the time.
Darling prize. What I love about spring is the beautiful greens you don't see any other time.
Love the warming weather in spring...so heavenly. Such a beautiful giveaway package!
such a pretty bird themed gift pack!! I also love birds but my feeders have been pretty much birdless all winter. I love Spring for the warmer weather and the bulbs popping up but I loathe Spring for the mud. Happy leap Day!
Wonderful spring prizes! In Norway it should still be winter, but we have a wonderful spring weather. Today I have enjoyed a long, nice walk in the sun!
I love everything about spring. I love the colour as everything comes to life. the cherry blossoms, tulips and spring flowers. I love the fresh new fabrics. thank you for a great spring time giveaway
My favourite part about spring is seeing my tulips poke up from the now thawed ground, and seeing all the buds on the trees and all the green popping up everywhere. Winter can be so long and spring is just so refreshing!
I live in farm country and in the spring they cut hay and I love the smell of fresh cut hay. My allergies don't but I do. Thanks for the give away. Congratulations on two years of blogging and Happy Leap Day!
I am so ready for spring, although our winter has not been very bad at all where I am, just a couple of nuisance snows and then it is gone in a day or two. I love hearing birds in the mornings in the springtime and watching the squirrels and chipmunks coming out of hiding.
Happy Leap Day!
I love spring, love when the birds sing, and by the way I love the mug as well as the mug rug.
What great fabric! and the mug rug is cute! I like Spring because everything gets a new start and is fresh and clean. I look forward to Spring, since today all it's done is snow... Thanks for a chance to win! :)
What a lovely give away : ) I am a birdwatcher! Thank you for the chance to win!
I love spring, the birds, flowers and promise of better weather to come :)
Love your prize. So many pretty things. I love spring weather - sun, warmth, etc. I don't like tornadoes. One of those in Kansas last night was within 10 miles of where I live. Too close for comfort.
Ooh, Happy Leap Day 2012 to you too. Cute mug rug, fabrics and mug too. I would love to win! Thanks for having a giveaway!
I love birds and love to see the trees bloom out and hear the birds talk about it. I live in the country and can see the geese fly back from wherever they go and I love to hear them too. Sping and Autumn are my favorite times of the year because of all the changing. Spring is my 2nd favorite to Autumn only because of allergies.
Would love to receive this giveaway! Thanks for the chance! I love spring snow!

What a lovely little spring packet!
What I love about spring is hearing new birds as they come back. What I can't stand are the grey days and mud and gravel that come off of everyone, especially our dogs!
What tweet fabric. (couldn't help myself). I love watching the trees bud out in spring and watching for the songbirds coming back north for the summer.
What a wonderful giveaway. I love all of it. My favorite part about spring is the birds returning. Thanks for the chance to win.

What a beautiful giveaway. I love spring flowers especially snowdrops. Hope I win but who ever does will be very lucky.
What darling fabric! And the mug rug is awesome!! And the mug is sweet as can be!!! Thanks for the opportunity to win such a great giveaway!!! :)
I love spring, the days get longer, the sun shines brighter. The snow melts and the song birds come back. It is all so new and fresh. My favourite time of the year.
I love fabric with birds in it. The only thing about spring that I dislike are the tornadoes that come with it. We had tornadoes in our state last night and it is still Feb.
I love your bird prints, especially the one in your mug rug. Great giveaway.
Beautiful fabrics!
Love the new flowers, warmer weather and longer days.
I love the birds!
I DON'T like the ever lasting mud season spring brings!!!! I do love seeing the cows kick up their heels when we let them out to green pasture after a winter of dry hay. :)
