Okay, folks. I’m way passed the point where age is an embarrassment, and am willing to confess. My birthday is in September. I think I should celebrate “en grande” this year. And since I firmly believe every person should get to choose how to spend his or her birthday, I (once again) am going to do it my way. This year I choose to celebrate and share with you. Let’s have a contest!
I will be giving a birthday present to one lucky winner who can guess what date (day) my birthday is/was. And how old I am. (C’mon… you didn’t think it was that easy, did you? And I’m not asking you to guess the hour of my birth!)
These are the rules:
1. Leave a comment on this post with your guess. Remember: you have to guess the actual day of my birthday and my age on that date.
2. For a second chance to win, you can choose to follow me (click the “Join this Site” button on the right sidebar). Leave a second comment here, indicating you are following me. If you wish, you can choose a second date/age here, or go with the first.
3. Needless to say, close friends and family are not qualified to participate. Nor allowed to give any hints.
4. You have until Friday, September 17 at 20:59 EST (UTC – 5) to leave your comment(s). The winner will be announced the following day.
5. If more than one person guesses correctly, we will then throw their numbers in a hat and choose one lucky winner.
6. Oh, my, yes… I almost forgot! The prize? A one-year full membership to Angie’s Bits ‘n Pieces!*
Now let the fun begin!
I am a self-learner. I taught myself to sew and to quilt. And I taught myself how to draw. I am learning how to dye my own fabrics and am dabbling with mixed media. I am a quilt designer and teacher, and design and publish my own line of quilt patterns. With this blog I would like to share the bits and pieces of my life.

I’m going to guess your birthday is on the 24th (my youngest sons birthday as well). I believe you will be 58 years young.
Love your site, especially the EPP’s.
Hmmm…..my guess would be September 21 and you will be turning 50
Oh Angie, this is such fun: I am going to say: Happpppppy Birthday! May the best still be to come!
I have really enjoyed reading all the guesses:and here’s mine:
I have to conclude that you are so comfortable with yourself and your age that you have come to understand that age is a state of mind not a number… Wise woman. You are so accomplished and are unapologetic about your talent. Confident woman. You want to share of yourself and your talent with us. Generous woman. You let us make fun with you and include us in your special celebration. Fun Chica!
So since the Birthday girl wants numbers: I will say 25 of September: my favourite day in Sept as my baby boy will be 4. 🙂 And I will say that you are turning 60.
In any case, Feliz Cumple, Angie!
Besitos,
Valentina

Angie I’m guessing September 12th which is my sister’s birthday and I’m thinking you look much younger than your age. Since you have grown children I’m thinking this a special birthday and maybe you turned 60.
Hola Angie! Te felicito por este nuevo giro que has dado de conectarte con nosotras, alguna vez te escribí pero nunca recibí respuesta, así que me siento con la teacher accesible. Gracias de verdad. Mira, la edad es lo de menos, lo importante es el espíritu y cómo tu te sientas.
pero como es un guess para ese premiazo, voy a decir que cumples 55 y que la fecha es el 14 de setiembre.
Felicidades!
Ok, here goes my guess, you will be turning 53 on September 23rd
Happy Birthday!!!! I say you will be celebrating the big 50 on September 24th. Have just joined your site and absolutely love it. Thanks for having it.
Your birthday is on the 19 september and you will be 60 that day.
Happy birthday to you and i wish you and your family at blessed day.
Thanks for a great site, that i’ve been following for at couple of years.

Hola, la verdad es que estoy desorientada…
Pero me arriesgo: cumples 50 años el día 18 de septiembre.
Y como soy seguidora del blog, arriesgo tambien: 55 años el día 21 de septiembre
Espero tener suerte, porque me gustaria ganar este premio!!
Besos
I was born on September 17th 1954. So I will say you were born on September 17th!! You do not look 50 but, with your job experience and the grown up children I will say 50. Have a blessed and wonderful birthday no matter how young you are!!!!!
I absolutely love your site!!!!

Well Happy Birthday. My daughter, sister & my Mom’s birthdays are in September. I’m going to guess Sept. 20th, and you will be 65 yrs young. You’re like me, you sure don’t look it, but it’s a great age (I’m older).lol I LOVE your site, every piece of it..good job gal..
OK, I am now following you, can you see me? lol It’s late, I should go to bed..haha Here’s another guess just for fun – Sept 6 – 60 yrs. Happy Birthday, whenever it is..Hope you have a great day.
I believe your special day is on Friday the 17th and you will be 50 but then who is counting then. Hopefully we have helped make your day a little more special.
I think you just turned 60 on the 1st of Sept. That is my mom’s birthday and nobody has guessed that day. Hope you had or have a great birthday which ever day it is on.
I’m going to guess the 8th. My brother has the only Sept. birthday in our family. And as you have older grandkids how about 65. Have a great birthday no matter when or how young you are this year.
Purely a guess – you obviously are very young-looking for your age, because you don’t look over 35 to me, but since you mentioned having 3 grown children already, I’m going to guess that you’re 47 (you must have had your babies at a VERY young age!:-) ) My guess for the date is September 14th!
Thanks for giving us the opportunity to win! ( I, personally, would LOVE to win a year’s worth of your Bits ‘n Pieces!!
Angie,
Happy Birthday! I have no idea, but you have really lovely picture for whatever age. I am going to be like several others and guess close to my own age just changing the month from May to September–Sept., 28, 1947.
I think that your birthay is on Sept. 24 and that you will be 50! I hope that I didn’t overshoot! You are a person who will remain young forever because of your love of beauty and creativity. I love your site. I hope your day is glorious!
Happy Birthday,
Donna
