Now that is easily a "winning entry" with no one being able to claim the end result did not jive with the text description of the entry. Good job and I hope the quilt sells for a lot of money. Nicely done Heather!

hey, I'm trying to check the auction on ebay and I don't see it so I guess it's not posted? I'd be interested in putting up a bid for it if I can locate it on Ebay. Heather, how much to make me one? :)

Auction will go live later this evening. I'll update this post with the link and do a new blog post once it's live on ebay.

Stay tuned!

...impressed! Well done; you certainly deserve a free Storm.

 
 
Posted by pmich Tuesday, Nov 25, 2008 1276 days ago

that was by far the best entry... that was sooo much work. Kudos to her and i can see why it was easily picked across the board from the judging panel.

 
 
Posted by Xopher Tuesday, Nov 25, 2008 1276 days ago

I have to say, this is definitely the best entry for the contest, hands down. A lot of work and effort went into this, and defintely makes it work being a winner!

 
 
Posted by jephersun Tuesday, Nov 25, 2008 1276 days ago

totally the best entry...GOOD JOB!!! =)

 
 
Posted by lovethiz Tuesday, Nov 25, 2008 1276 days ago

I have to agree with Xopher on this considering the last three entries were IMHO were lame ducks and plausible!

 
 
Posted by mad-dog74 Tuesday, Nov 25, 2008 1276 days ago

Congrats from a fellow winner. I may just have to bid as we have lots of snow right snow... My wife would really love me being cuddled up by a storm while playing with my storm. :-) Creative entry and nice job!

 
 
Posted by 69copo Tuesday, Nov 25, 2008 1276 days ago

That is a great entry and I'm glad you won. You know you've done something when the haters hate. Great job you deserve it. I will be bidding as soon as I see the link. :)

Excellent work! Kudos to Kevin for putting the quilt on EBAY and giving the money to a great charity!

I know many people who create beautiful handmade quilts. This is a very unique and awesomely made quilt. I just wanted to let you know that I appreciate the time and effort you put into this project.Great Job Heather!!
I hope I win this quilt.

 
 
Posted by Kaylajoy21 Tuesday, Nov 25, 2008 1276 days ago

you totally deserve to win!!!

 
 
Posted by anonymous Tuesday, Nov 25, 2008 1276 days ago

CONGRATS!! to you for winning the new Blackberry Storm and for having such an AWSOME fiance putting up with your insanity of creating this beautiful quilt. I personally think Kevin and the crackberry team is AWSOME for choosing the Toys for Tots charity (as I was in the Marine Corp). Heather you are an amazing person with enormous talent. LOVE YOUR un-named FIANCE. LOL

I just tried to bid!! I have a registered paypal acct. HELP!!! i sent a message to seller as well.

This seller has set buyer requirements for this item and only sells to buyers who meet those requirements.

You are unable to bid on or buy this item because:

You either don't have a PayPal account or your PayPal account is not linked to your eBay account. Register with PayPal | Already have a PayPal account?

You are registered in a country to which the seller doesn't ship.

Note: If you are still interested in bidding on or buying this item, you may contact the seller and ask that they exempt you from any buyer requirements.

 
 
Posted by Kevin Michaluk Wednesday, Nov 26, 2008 1276 days ago

Had a little hiccup on the settings. You can bid from anywhere in the world now as long as you have paypal tied to your account.

It does says US Shipping Only (can't edit the post once created), but don't worry, we WILL SHIP anywhere in the world free of charge.

Just pushed the bid up a bit.

Bid against me, folks, or this quilt will seriously end up the hands of a Windows Mobile user! :p

I especially like the shotgun next to the bed in the background, is that to keep the evil doers at bay.

Yay, Heather, I finally know someone that won something. See you at work next week.

 
 
Posted by Hschil44 Wednesday, Nov 26, 2008 1276 days ago

yea...it had just been cleaned and hadn't been put away yet. oops!

Thank you all so much for the amazing comments. I've been keeping close tabs on the auction - can't wait to see how it ends!

 
 
Posted by jpro757 Wednesday, Nov 26, 2008 1276 days ago

Loved the quilt your idea was creative original and the ebay thing is a cool idea also. I wonder how much the highest bid will be you could make another and sell it for 200 and buy you a storm. Congrats and HAPPY HOLIDAYS

 
 
Posted by bobojay Wednesday, Nov 26, 2008 1276 days ago

Beautiful, beautiful!! This should easily be the no. 1 entry in the contest. By far the most work!

 
 
Posted by F34R Wednesday, Nov 26, 2008 1276 days ago

I am going to do my best to win this quilt as it might be the only storm I get ! lol

My kids have given up their allowance for the rest of the year to go to this quilt. All three were excited that other kids will benefit from winning the quilt.

 
 
Posted by Navan Thursday, Nov 27, 2008 1275 days ago

That's awesome! You have excellent kids!

 
 
Posted by bx2md Thursday, Nov 27, 2008 1275 days ago

i like it ... i'm thinking it may go up to 1,000 $
and if so that would be a really good thing for charity

 
 
Posted by Aunt Laura Thursday, Nov 27, 2008 1275 days ago

You are an amazing talent, as her aunt, I tried to encourage her through this amazing journey. Your creativity is unbelieveable. I hope you win first!! Can't wait till your next project!! I'm thinking making wall hangings for all those who don't win the quilt!! ( a little smaller project)

The only thing that kept him sane was his BLACKBERRY. KEVIN HAS TO POST THIS VIDEO UP. HE HAS TO. THIS MAN WAS LOCKED IN HIS HOTEL ROOM AFTER TERRORISTS ATTACKED IN MUMBAI.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/7754046.stm

British businessman Mark Abell managed to escape from the Oberoi Trident Hotel.

He had barricaded himself inside his room when the militants stormed the building on Wednesday.

Mr Abell said the Indian hotel staff and the security forces had been "fantastic".
