This is a moment I've been waiting for! I get to celebrate 50,000 unique visits! What do I mean by unique you ask? Well, most counters are set up to track every page load; that means if I visit your blog 5 times a day your counter would go up by 5. I have set my counter to only count one "computer" visit per day; so if you visit my blog 5 times in one day my counter will only go up by one. I feel that gives me a more accurate sense of what is going on with my blog traffic. If I were to count page loads I would have 95,335 hits as of the time of this post.
Anyhow, I am excited to reach this mile marker and I would like to celebrate by giving away a free skein of 100% high quality SILK hand dyed tatting thread (HDT).
All you need to do is leave a comment on this post. The winner will be randomly selected one week from today. WHOO HOO!

I'm not at all surprised that you've reached this milestone... congratulations!
Congratulations on your milestone. Your HDTs are like candies (for tatting).
I understand what you mean. Mine shows both - and the page loads are always much much higher.
What a wonderful giveaway!
Congratulations! I'm brand new to the blogging world so it's going to be quite a while before I reach any kind of milestone. I would love to win some of your HDT.
Congratz on reaching 50,000 visit on your wonderful blog. I would love a skein of your HDT Thread has I have never tatted with your Thread. I would love to try.

Hooray for HDT!! Congrats on your milestone.
Congatulations, 50,000 unique visits. I'm not surprised your threads are beautiful. Do we get to choose the colour thread if we win? That would be difficult they are all so fabulous.

Congrats, Sherry, and thanks for your generosity - not just with this give-away - but with your patterns, tips, links and the time you invest in the tatting community...I bet visit 100,000 happens sooner that you think!
Congratulations Sherry - what an achievement!
I adore HDT and would love a chance of winning a skein of your silk.
Thank you for your generosity.
Congratulations on your 50,000th unique visits! I wish I had set mine up this way at the very first. You have accomplished much since we met and I am very proud of you. Love, Lala

Sherry, I add my voice to the rest congratulating you on your 50,000 visit milestone. I'm looking forward to seeing you in less than one month!!! Mimi
Wow! That's a ton of hits! Congrats.

Congratulations on 50,000 unique visits! :)
Congratulations, Sherry. What a huge milestone. When was your first post?
How can I not comment when such a great prize is up for grabs? Congratulations on hitting this milestone
Wow, what a milestone of hits! Congratulations, it has to be due to the wonderful blog you have. I would love to try that silk tatting thread, please enter my name in your drawing.
I can't resist to comment not to enter the giveaway but to send you congratulatuions for this amazing milestone!
Please don't count with me - I even don't know how to make tatting so I don't want to take off somebody the place - I only want to greet you
This is to say Kudos to you; I hope the thread goes to someone who ordinarily doesn't get such a treat as HDT ~ let alone silk. I don't want to be in the drawing; but who ever wins will really love the thread. I know I really treasure my silk threads ~ and they always make me think of you and all your hard work.
love and hugs, Bev
Congratz! That's wonderful so many visitors! Beautiful HDT by the way.
Happy Tatting!
Congrats! My counter is not that precise. What color (mentally drooling) HDT?
Wow! Congratulations!
WOW!!! Congrads! Thanks so much for a chance!!
Who could resist. Your HDT is wonderful.
WOW, I can only hope for that many to be interested in my blog. Good for you. Maybe if your draw is near the 25th it would great to win because that would be my birthday. YAY
Congratulations on reaching the 50,000th milestone. I was lucky to have received one of your silk HDTs in one of your earlier draws, but the temptation is too great to skip this. So, here's trying my luck again, :-)
I love your blog. Congratulations on the huge count.
so glad to have dropped by your blog coz I've just started learning tatting but not much resources are available from my place, I have to have everything shipped to me..
your works inspired me to lractice more and congratz!!!
hey sherry, many more 50,000 visits! keep sharing. i enjoy reading your blog.
p.s. which widget do you use to track your blog visits? perhaps i should do that too. :)
Ohh...can I still leave a comment? I just found your blog - it's lovely...I adore those advocado greens.
I won't get in trouble for leaving 1400 more comments will I?
Oh snap, you mod your comments. I'd get caught.
Owell. You can't fault a girl for trying :-)
