New Giveaway!

First of all, the winner of last week's giveaway (thanks to Random.org) is Mosaic Magpie.  I  will have the kits out in the mail to you today, Debbie!  Enjoy!

Sorry I am so late getting this posted!  I think that rather than only leave you with two days to comment and enter, I will leave this go until Friday the 13th of August.  I know that means I am missing a week but it has been wild here at the campground and doesn't look like things will calm down this week either.

This week I am celebrating it being closer to the end of the camping season and closer to the time I get to go home!  lol - everyone looks at me funny when I say that I am looking forward to the end of summer when winters here are so long but I miss my home and family!

Since there is still some summer left and I know everyone with children off school might be running out of ideas, this time I am giving away something full of ideas you can do with the little ones.  It is an issue of Mary Beth's Crafty Kids.  I don't think this magazine was around for long but while it was I loved it!  I used a lot of these ideas with my kids and held onto the magazine but even the grandkids are getting too old for the projects!
So here is how the giveaway works:
1. For one entry leave a comment telling me you are celebrating this week.
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!

Hi Kerry,

I'd love to win this one Kerry. My DGD just turned 4 and I run out of ideas to keep her amused. I was thinking about how busy you must be on the weekend.

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 comment telling me which item you like best.  Feel fr

BAS - Week 79 - Feather Stitch Variations

I have about the next twenty BAS stitches scheduled and by happy coincidence this week's BAS is a series of Feather Stitch variations which coincide with this week's TAST stitch if you are following.  So, we can hit two birds with one stone!  These hardly look like feather stitch but they are.  They are created by making the "v"'s of the feather stitch vertical on the inside.  Very simple to do but a different look to an old stitch.  The second variation is created by doing two feather stitches at a time on each side, again making sure the inside of your "v"s are vertical and line up as much as possible. Same thing again in this one except they are in series of three.  To me these have the look of stitching on old crazy quilts so they are nice to add to your stable of stitch variations.  Hope you  enjoy them and have fun!

Friday Giveaway - Last Week's Winner & a New Giveaway!

The winner of last week's Friday Giveaway of the current issue of Spin Off magazine is Marilyn!  lol - an easy win for Marilyn since she was the only one who left a comment.  Marilyn didn't leave an email so I would ask her please to contact me - just leave a comment with your email and I will email you right back to get your mailing information. (I will not publish the comment with your email)  If I don't hear back from you by next Friday I will include the magazine in with the prize for next week.  Last week I asked for comments suggesting what would make a good giveaway item in the future.  Since Marilyn's suggestion was the only one, I will take it!  So, this week I will be giving away some specialty threads as Marilyn suggested, along with a package of these great clock charms I just received in the mail. Aren't these great charms?  When I found them I bought all that there were in stock, five packages, so I have enough to share with you as well as a package fo
