One of the best parts of blogging is “meeting” precious people all over the States.
One special lady that I am so glad I have gotten to “know” through blogging is Judy from Oklahoma.
Judy is a wonderful seamstress and has her own little Etsy shop for of her beautiful creations.
Here is what Judy’s profile on Etsy says:
I’ve always been a creative person and finally went back to school to study Interior Design. I have done design work for 20 plus years but my one true love is sewing – especially pillows. My Mother was a stay-at-home mom who taught me to sew, crochet and embroider as well as do all kinds of crafts. The name of my shop 20 North Ora was my parents’ one and only address. I thought since this is where I learned all of these things – the name was fitting.
Isn’t she just precious?
And look what I received from Oklahoma in the mail last week…
Three very well made and beautiful pillows just for me!
I love them Judy! Thank you so much!

Now here is the sneak peek of my hardwood floors…
I am so excited to hopefully be able to stay at our home Wednesday night. My hubby finished putting another coat of Poly on the floor tonight.
More details to come….
Oh my…I was looking for something I wanted, like that cute little Holly Jolly Christmas pillow, and then I ran across that cupcake!!! My daughter, grown daughter I might add, has this thing for cupcakes! So there you have it, I’d go for the cupcake and I’d love to win and give it to her for Christmas!!
Beautiful pillows! I am torn between the Bee Happy and the French numbers pillows….decisions, decisions…
My honey affectionately calls me the “Queen Bee” so the “Bee Happy” pillow is my favorite and the one I would choose
Such lovely pillows and other goodies. Since my husband and I just purchased bike’s this year and began riding after 40 years, I most definitely would have to go with the “Wanna Ride Bicycle” pillow! Love the sneak peak of your floors. Can’t wait to see more of the transformation!
I tweeted this : ) Great giveaway!
I would choose the French words or the rooster pillows- they’d look so cute in my mom’s kitchen! Can’t wait to see the floors in full!
Brown-toned Burlap and Linen for sure! ;-)
omg your floors look great!!
Love, love, love the red cardinal pillow! But me likes ‘em ALL! Beautiful, fun, and artistic….
Those planter peanut pillows are wicked cute. I love the French word one too.
And the floors look AMAZING!
Love the pillows you received–and the Number pillows–and the Handkerchief pillows–and the Burlap–and….
The pillows AND the floors look great!
Sounds like a light at the end of the tunnel. Lookin’ good! I can’t wait to see it all come together.

Beautiful pillows and Christmas items. I love the cabbage stocking. I’d love to order stockings from her. Your pillows are very nice too and look so good with the black. Can’t wait to see more of your renovations!
I love the set of girlie pillow and the cute as a cupcake set. How cute is it that she sells pillows in sets!!! I LOOOVE them! :)
I really like the tool set!! It would make a great gift for my nephew for Christmas!!
I tweeted about the giveaway!! @jessicabrank
So many adorable things. I love the girlie set of pillows! And I like the ones you go too!
I tweeted!
I LOVE all of Judy’s creations!!!!
In fact, I had purchased a custom set of french script Christmas stockings from her a few weeks ago, and through our numerous emails, I found her to be the kindest and most talented seamstress with a heart of gold! All of her items are created with T.L.C., so the lucky winner will certainly be overjoyed with any of her creations!
I love anything w/ word script, burlap, and linen and she most certainly has lots of goodies to choose from! Thanks so much for the give-a-way!!
I like the Brown Toned Burlap and Linen Pillow Set of Two
Tweet!
I love the pillow she gave you but I also love the Blue and Red Patchwork Cherry Pillow.
So many wonderful pillows to choose…but if I must just pick one it would be the Patchwork Lumbar Cherry. This sweet pillow would fit right in with the others on my church pew in my kitchen! I love how some of the pillows are made with vintage hankies, cute idea!
The burlap and linen-oh yes! Thank you for offering this fun giveaway!
So glad to have learned about her site thru yours, Traci. I found too many things I love, but if I had to choose…it would be the Holly Jolly pillow or the Le Coq pillow. Loved all of her burlap pieces as well! Thanks for the opportunity.
The burlap pillows are so pretty! I would choose those! The floors look A-Maz-ing!
I love the pillows she gave you. They would look good with my brown sofa.
I am just in love with the Planter’s peanuts pillow. My son’s bedroom is baseball themed, and this would be a great addition!

I LOVE the French Number Pillows. Beautiful.
I love the pillows you got – they are beautiful! I’ve been thinking about getting some burlap pillows too for my couch, wouldn’t that go well with a sisal rug??
Love the ones you received….brown toned burlap and linen. Mr. Peanut brings back lots of memories so I wouldn’t mind him either.
Oh I would say French Words- i adore that fabric!
I am inlove with all of Judy’s numbered pillows!
The Brown Toned Burlap and Linen Pillow Set of Two are the ones for me!
P.S. Your floors are looking great.
I would LOVE to win the Burlap and Linen pillows, they would look awsome with my burlap curtains!!!! Great Giveaway
I love the brown linen pillows but I also love the Joy Snowman pillow.
I just tweeted your post.
DEFINITELY the Bee Happy pillow! All of them are SO CUTE!
Love the pillows! And we need so many with our new house & more rooms. I love the welcome pillow and chandelier pillow! Hard to choose one.
Oooh, I want 4 of the French Number pillows to make my house number and put them on the chairs on my front porch. How cute would that be!
Hubby is a nut, or should be one since he eats so many peanuts. Gotta go with the planters peanut pillow :)
I love the Christmas pillows and the cherry doily one. Actually, I love a lot of them!
Burlap and Ruffles pillow. It could be used all year.
The burlap and ruffles are darling!
I tweeted this, or retweeted it!
What beautiful pillows! I love the “bee happy” pillow and the antique cherry doily. So creative!
So many beautiful styles of pillows that it was hard to choose but I would pick the Wanna Ride Bicycle pillow for a biker chick friend who encouraged me to start riding a bike long distances.
I would choose one of the French numbers or a burlap and ruffles pillow!
I love them all! But the roosters are just what I’ve been looking for! BTW your floors are awsome!…We are thinking of putting some down over our stained concrete but worried about putting them in the kitchen.
I love the French Number pillow!
I think I would have to go with the pink and lime green pillows for my daughter. She would love them!
Don’t see my comments where I tweeted about it too! Ruh Roh…I did though! I tweeted!!!
Beautiful things~~I love the blue toile & plaid pillows…and your floors!! Thanks for hosting the giveaway! Merry Christmas!!
I love the red chenille table runner- it would definitely fit right in with my Christmas decorations!
Love the rooster pillows!
I would absolutely LOVE the pillows you got! Thanks for the giveaway and turning me on to a great Etsy shop!
Very cute shop. I love the French Words pillow! The Rooster pair pulled a close second. The floors are gorgeous! I hope you guys get to go home and enjoy them soon.;)
I would get the pair of rooster pillows for my mom. Thanks for the chance to win!
I think I like the Planters Peanuts one too, or the snowman on the bed spring!!
I love the french number pillows! But everything is so beautiful I would have a hard time choosing!
She does beautiful work! Since it is the Christmas season I would pick the Christmas Tree pillow. It would be a hard decision though because I liked them all.
So hard to decide! All the pillows are so lovely. I would choose the Patchwork Lumbar Cherry Print Pillow. Thank you for the generous giveway and Happy Holidays!
Oh, the pair of rooster pillows or vintage welcome one – love them both!!!
Well, there are a few that I like. The blue toile, the black and tan e-mail, the Christmas hankie pillows. Thanks for the give-a-way.
I love the “wanna ride” bicycle pillow. So many great ones to choose from!
I like the O Christmas Tree Pillow.
I love the Christmas Joy Snowman Pillow. Being from Okla myself, I would love to have a pillow made by a fellow Okie. Thanks for the giveaway.
The “welcome” pillow is the cutest! Great giveaway!
The Peanut pillow is so cute! I also like the Wanna Ride Bicycle.
Waaaaa I love those Planter peanut pillows too! But, I have fallen in love with the pillows/chairs/things with the words on them — and so I would pick the French words pillow……I’ve talked myself out of buying any of those word pillows or items but think it’s time to cave! Thanks for the generosity and LOVE those wood floors! Jean from South Jersey!
I like the Bee Happy Pillow. Very cute!

I LOVE the chandelier pillow! Just gorgeous :) It’s so nice finding posts like this, give-a-ways are so generous and you can really tell the blogger and her sponsor care for the fans! Creates a sense of camaraderie on here! Thanks for the opportunity!
They are all wonderful but I would choose the rooster pillows. My best friend loves chickens, raises hens, and sells eggs on her small farm. This would make a wonderful gift for her this season!!!
My goodness I had a hard time picking one (as if I would win) but it came down to the “Bee Happy”. Sweetie, I love your floors, you will be so happy when things are finished. But you will think of something new. Ha-Ha.
I love the Holly Jolly pillow, and the number pillows and the ones with ruffles. I pretty much like them all!
The Oh Christmas Tree pillow is my favorite!

The penant welcome and the words one are the start of my list. Thanks!
The Bee Happy pillow is so cute!
Wow, her pillows are awesome! I like the French words pillow.
I think the Brown Toned Burlap and Linen Pillow Set would look right at home in my home!
the Brown Toned Burlap and Linen Pillow !!
I just want to say first that I think it’s so wonderful to see how you’ve given new life to vintage linens. I’m always so sad to find women’s handiwork at yard sales — these precious items deserve love and respect; so thank you!
I’m sort of enamored of the elegant rooster pillow. Thanks for this very nice giveaway — and Buon Natale!
I love the “nest” pillow and the “joy” pillow too! Thanks for introducing us to such a lovely shop!
I love her number pillows…I would love the #3, for my happy little family!!
I love the Santa pillow!
I love the wedding quilt pillows
I love the burlap and ruffles and bees, but I am a sucker for typography so it would be the french words and numbers!!

I LOVE the pillows she sent you (burlap) but also love the “Le Coq” and “Rooster” pillow print. Such amazing designs!!
So happy to have found your blog.
Thanks,
Claire

le coq and the christmas oil cloth banner are my favorites from the shop. traci how are you dealing with all of the chaos? you & cy are making amazing progress but it’s hard to have every room a disaster or worse, to not be able to live in your home when you are such a “hearth & home”-type. wishing your strength & patience.
I love the antique cherry doily on linen. I have some vintage doilies that my late mother embroidered and this would go well with them.
I like the burlap and linen pillows.
I love the Planter’s peanut sack pillows you have shown. I was unable to find them on her site, however. Just love, love, LOVE them!
Hang in there with the renovation! God bless.
