Congratulations Lesley - plus this Week's Giveaway!

First of all, congratulations go out to Lesley for winning the fuzzy fibre collection of yarns - have fun making seaweed or whatever tickles your fancy!  Also hope you enjoy the three kits that go along!  Please send me your mailing information and I will get this out to you right away.

This week's giveaway is for three books from my rather eclectic collection.  The first is "Teach Yourself to Make Angels & Fairies", written by Jodie Davis.  There are instructions for everything from a teddy bear angel to a Raggedy Ann angel (so cute!).  Just another case of not enough time to try everything!  lol Maybe you will have better luck.


The second book is "Stencilling:  A Harrowsmith Guide".  I love the old Harrowsmith magazine, Canada's answer to the back-to-the-land movement.  I must have really liked this book because somehow I managed to buy three copies!  So, one of them is up for grabs.

Last, but not least, is "Hand Spinning and Woolcombing" by Grace M. Crowfoot and H. Ling Roth.  Included in the volume are "Methods of Hand Spinning in Egypt and the Sudan" as well as "Handcombing".  Maybe you know a spinner who would enjoy this?

 So, here is how the giveaway works:


1. For one entry leave a comment on this post telling me anything!

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.

4. For a 4th entry, visit the Crazy Quilting International blog and come back and tell me in a separate post which round robin you like!

5. For THREE extra entries, become a follower of the Crazy Quilting International blog and come back and let me know.
 
That's it - all there is to it!  Good luck!

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...

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...

400 Post Giveaway

Well, gotta love those nice round numbers like 400! It is always a good excuse to celebrate by having a little giveaway. Every year I anticipate the publication of Just CrossStitch's Christmas Ornament issue. I start watching the newsstands about September and worry I won't manage to find a copy before they are sold out. This little obsession of mine probably explains how I managed to buy two copies! So, I would like to share one with my readers. If you aren't familiar with this magazine - it really is a "keeper"! Seventy-five designers have each provided a Christmas ornament with instructions. These small designs are often useful for making cross stitch cards or as motifs for cq using waste canvas as well. So, this time the draw will be a little different. Enter by leaving a comment on this post - that gives you one entry. If you follow my blog, leave another comment saying so - that gives you a second entry. If you post about the giveaway on your blog, leave a t...
