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 free to suggest other items you would like to see in the shop  as well! We are just getting started on Etsy so the store is still very small and advice is welcome.

You have until Friday midnight to enter.  Once you have entered the draw here, be sure to visit Sew, Momma, Sew for the complete list of all the blogs and shops having giveaways this Giveaway Day!  Good luck in all the draws!

What a delightful find, I'm surprised you can bear to part with it.
I love your decoupage buttons, but I also think you've found a lovely way to use your CQ, it was so hard to choose

What a beautiful little box! I popped over to your Etsy shop and thought your little rocking chair pincushions were so cute! Seems like one of my grandmothers had something similar. Good luck with your shop!

What a lovely find! I like the decoupage buttons, though I wonder how they'd stand up in the wash. Also, some of the pictures are a bit dark on my screen- have you tried adjusting the light balance with photoediting software? It's easier than it sounds and can make a big difference (plus, then you can take pictures in diffuse light to avoid harsh shadows, yet still get them bright enough to pop).

I love Crazy quilts best of all quilting genres. I think the Under the Sea is stunning. The shells you've created are remarkable standouts. In your etsy shop the candy dish and the mirror set are my favorites. Lovely items. The sewing box is a fabu find, certainly. The irises would look lovely on a quilt, don't ya think? Too bad I can't paint! Tina

Well, if I was working on the dollhouse with my gds like I keep thinking I will then I would like the little miniature tablecloth best. BUT since I'm not and if I had older gds who would value the dresser set I would pick the dresser set as my fav and buy two but they are only 6 and don't know the value of such items. Right now they only value their fav stuffed animal/doll. So, I guess it boils down to I LOVE the buttons. I'd say I love the candy dish BUT I just gobble up candy out of the bag so it has no time to reach any dishes.

I don't know if my previous answer went through.
I said your blog (which I subscribed to) was serendipity since I was going to start stitching and your blog is perfect and I wanted a stiching basket that was only for stiching, (not sewing) but it had to be unique! I LOVE this basket. And I LOVE your OOAK carazy quilt candy> Thanks!

Save the Stitches Finished!

 I finally finished my "Covid Project"!  I worked on Elizabeth Almond's beautiful blackwork sampler design, "Save the Stitches" for much longer than I would like to admit...  I have to say though that it was very satisfying every step of the way.  I have not been able to concentrate on stitching in any significant way for some time now due to chronic pain and the dullness that the pain meds cause but having finished this piece gives me hope for my stitching future.  I also love the framing which was lovingly done by MJ of "Art Effects" in High River, Alberta.

BAS Week 35 - Bullion Stitch

This time the BAS Challenge is a stitch that can be used in either seams or motifs. It is an incredibly versatile stitch once you learn it. I put off learning the bullion stitch because I found it very intimidating, but I have to say that once I got the hang of it I have had a lot of fun with it. The possibilities are almost endless..... bullion roses... ... figures like watering cans... ...Christmas puddings... ... this little robin and worm - my personal favourite!... ....romantic hearts filled with roses... ... even a beehive and little bees.... ... or baby rattles! See, the possibilities really are endless! Now that I hope I have you inspired with ideas, here is the scoop on this stitch. It is simply a glorified french knot! There is an excellent video tutorial on Mary Corbet's Needle'nThread blog in her Video Library of Stitches. Mary has also written very good information and tips in this post. You can also check out Sharon B's Dictionary of Stitches
