Last Week's Winner and this Week's Giveaway!

Congratulations to the winner of last week's giveaway!  The randon number generator chose #2 so the winner is Mamaccessories with this comment:
               I have been following your blog for about 1 week and I love it!

If you will send me your mailing information I will get this right out to you!  If you need a reminder, last week's giveaway items were the current issue of A Needle Pulling Thread (a great Canadian needlework magazine), The Floral Elegance Any Year Diary, and the Blessings Journal. 

This week I celebrated my birthday so will keep celebrating with another giveaway. For this week's giveaway, I dove into the stash and came up with a variety of complete kits of one kind or another.


The first kit is this Winnie the Pooh cross stitch kit.  Everything is included - originally I was thinking it would look cute done up on a jean jacket using waste canvas.  Or maybe a birth sampler if you replaced the words on the border with the baby's name etc.




The second item is a quilling kit. Haven't you always wanted to try quilling?  I thought I would like to at some point and that is why I found multiple quilling kits in my stash!  lol
The third and final item is a lovely needlepoint kit by Dimensions.  I love this but somehow I don't think I'll ever get around to doing it. 

Here is a closer photo of the needlepoint picture - I think it is so pretty!  So that is the giveaway for this week.  Three items - winner takes all!

So, here is how it works:


1. For one entry leave a comment telling me what project you would like to start next or something else - maybe what project you are working on right now or something you are getting close to finishing.
2. For a second entry, become a follower or let me know you already are in a separate post.

3. For a third entry, blog about this giveaway and leave me another comment with a link to the post.

Please, please, please leave me an email or a way to contact you so I can give you your prize!

I am currently working on several fabric ATC swap, a 5zies swap ( 5, 5" fabric pieces on a theme) and a 1:1 CQ square. I have several items on my next-to-do-list. Thanks for the opportunity to win this neat draw.

I have a couple of larger projects going right now. The one that I will finish before Christmas (including getting it framed) is "Coming Home for the Holidays". My dad picked it out at one of our [not so] LNS's when we went over to Orlando one day. He actually picked a different design, also a Christmas one, but they were out of stock. I am about half way done with it.

One of the other larger projects is Ink Cirlces' Cirques des Carreaux for my mom. She wants a French-themed wall in her living room and saw the design on one of her visits to my blog and asked me to stitch it for her for Christmas. I told her it wouldn't be until next year but I will stitch it - afterall, she crocheted me many a doily and table cloth/runner over the years so it's only fair.

Thanks for the opportunity to enter...

Right now I am working on a table runner using funky log cabin blocks - it will be a retirement gift for a former boss and it is awesome. I would be interested in the quilt pattern and thank you for your generosity.

Giveaway Day! (CLOSED)

I am very happy to be joining in the Giveaway Day through Sew, Momma, Sew .  I have chosen to share one of my finds from a shopping trip, or treasure hunts as I think of them.  This is an antique sewing box -  I could not resist it when I saw it for sale!  Were you able to guess the item from the sneak peek earlier in the week? The box itself is fairly small, 8 inchs X 6 inchs and 4 inches high (20 cm X 15 cm and 10 cm high).  From my research it is of Asian origin. Inside the sewing box is lined with hand-painted silk.  The inside of the lid features a neat little needlebook. In the bottom of the sewing box there are more beautiful hand-painted blossoms and an attached pincushion.  I hope you are as charmed by this little box as I was when I found it and that you will enter my giveaway.  I will be pleased to mail internationally so everyone is invited to enter. To enter, visit my Etsy shop and then come back and leave me a...

BAS - Week 73 - Raised Fishbone Leaves (and Tutorial)

It took me a little while to get this one ready - lots of photos in the tutorial.  This Build a Seam (BAS) Challenge is for Raised Fishbone Stitch leaves.  With a little practice you will get much better results than I did - this was my first attempt on these as well.  For some reason I have basically avoided fishbone stitch but no time like the present to learn!  I hope you enjoy this BAS Challenge! Begin by marking your leaves on your fabric.  You will find it handy to have an outline to follow while stitching.  I used a mechanical pencil to lightly mark mine - hopefully not so lightly you can`t see them! To begin, bring your needle up at the point of the leaf and take it down again about halfway down on the center vein. Now come up again directly to the left of that, on the outside edge of the leaf. Take your needle down again just barely to the right and down from the top leaf point. And bring it up again just barely to the left and down of the point...

Giveaway!

I am feeling like celebrating for various reasons! Firstly, this is my 100th post on my blog and that seems worthy of a little celebration. Secondly, I can now count the days on this year's camping season on my fingers! It has been a busy summer out here at the campground and I am anticipating getting home for a rest - I am so looking forward to hot showers, a real bed, good lighting and my comfy stitching chair! So, I have decided to celebrate with a giveaway! I think these are great fun and have put my name down for several and even won once so it feels like time to be on the hosting end for a change. I have decided to give away a squishie of items for stitching, embellishing and inspiration. I can't show you a picture right now because of the twist I have come up with! I'll start out with a squishie containing some fun items like an oya or two, specialty threads and fancy yarns, a silkie and a couple other things. For every person who puts their name in the draw by leavi...
