First, Lupelotto came about as a result of me gettin' completely disgusted with the way my sewing room was lookin'....that was back last fall. I really didn't want to give half-completed projects to Goodwill since I knew no one in that receiving department would have the dimmest idea or appreciation of my works-in-progress. I also didn't want to send them to the landfill, never to be seen again...just doin' my tree-huggin' part. So, I came up with the idea to hold drawings for those projects via my FB page. The whole notion was to finish projects and offer 'em up to folks that would maybe, just maybe be glad to get them.
Lupelotto got it's name from an instance where my dad told my mom that I wasn't Bettepat. He insisted that I was Lupe Gonzalez. Go figure. I liked it. Lupe for the front end....lotto for the back end because it's a lotto of sorts. Plain and simple.
There is no money involved. I write a blog. I pose a question. If you want to enter the drawing, you must answer the question in the comments section. Now that I have a blog place, entries/responses will be taken in the comments section of that blog entry (as opposed to the previous FB entries). You won't hurt my feelins' if you thing what I'm offerin' up is tacky...or stupid....or otherwise not your cup of tea. Sometimes the prizes are pretty darn good. Sometimes they are less than stellar. Sometimes the prizes are things I used and I'm tired of them. Sometimes I'll make a project just for Lupelotto.
That's about all the rules. 'Cept that you will need to give me your mailing address if you win.
Today's prize is a tote bag I've used travelin' to and fro many a sons' activities. It's my favorite color....pink. I need something I favor to give away today because yesterday wasn't so hot...but that's the next blog entry-probably tomorrow.....and that will be the story of the Walmart Lady at the quilt shop.....oh, MY SWEET BEEJEEBERS!
All you need to do is to tell me what your favorite color is.....pretty easy!
Winner announced Monday, February 8....probably before I have my root canal at 10:30am....I'm NOT just sayin'!

I absolutely love how blue (usually royal) and orange complement each other. Of course I am partial to orange (you know why!), and when you put it with blue it just makes me happy!
