I told you earlier this month that I got a new Galaxy S5 phone and was doing some work with U.S. Cellular.  In conjunction with all of that U.S. Cellular through their Better Day program gave me two tickets to giveaway to one of my lucky blog readers.  Through their Better Day campaign they are providing communities with everything they need to create better moments together this summer.  What’s better fun than attending the fair??
The Iowa State Fair is fast approaching it runs from  August 7-17th.  There are always lots of fun things to see and do there.  You can check out their website here.
They have an amazing quilt show there. Â Here are two different blog posts showing just a few of the quilts we saw last time we went. Â Post #1 Â Post #2
They had this little quilt that I wanted to make…I had the pattern but still-haven’t made it.
There are lots of other fun things to do too…the animals..the butter cow…the rides..the food (pork chops on a stick are my favorite)…the entertainment…and the quilt show.
Thanks to U.S. Cellular I have two tickets for one of my readers. Â If you’d like a chance to win the tickets simply leave a comment here. Â I’ll pick a winner Sunday night. Â That way I’ll have time to get these tickets in the mail to you so you can go.
Planning to go to the fair to see the quilts so free tickets would be great.
We can always use tickets. Looking forward to going to preview night on Aug 6 to see the quilts.
Just moved our daughter to Des Moines last week and saw all the ads.
Looks interesting. If I cannot go I’m sure my poor unemployed educator would love to.
Would love to go to the Fair. I’ve never been there yet but have lived my life in Northwest corner of Iowa. Thank you for all the fun blogs
We haven’t been to the state fair for about 5 years & were just talking about going this year. Really enjoy looking at all the quilts. I can always get new ideas from all the patterns & quilting designs. Would love to win these tickets!!
I’ve only been to the Iowa State Fair once but we had a fabulous time. That trip was before I began quilting so it would be fun to see the quilts they have on display. Happy Summer!
Have never been to the state fair. Would love the chance to go this year! Thank you for sharing.
Haven’t been to the state fair for about 30 years but I’m going on the 15th with my girlfriends from church.
Love all the house updates, Jo! I understand how much work you’re putting into it which will only make it more special when you move in.
forget the tickets, just send me a porkchop on a stick !! yippee.
Love the State Fair. Hubby would be delighted if I won free tickets – more money for “food on a stick”. LOL
We’ve lived in Iowa now for several years and still haven’t made it – looks like fun though! Thanks for the giveaway :)
Love the Iowa State Fair! And the food!
We are planning to take our Texas grandsons to the Iowa state fair so would love to win the tickets!
