New Giveaway - Making More Beaded Jewellery

Here is another Rainbow Disk book on disk - Making More Beaded Jewellery. There are 50 projects in this one - enough so everyone will find something they would like to make. You can read all the details on the Rainbow Disks website here. This giveaway is the same as the others - you have to write a review of the disk after you have won it and had a chance to look at it please.
You can have one entry for telling me your favourite type of bead and another for telling me you are a follower. You have until Wednesday, April 11th, to enter this one.
I asked in the last giveaway for people to guess why I was doing all the giveaways. Well, there were some good guesses and they were all right to some degree. I am de-stashing, I had extras of these disks, I passed the 200 followers mark, etc. Mostly though it is because I have been down and out with a rotten virus and broncitus so haven't felt like stitching and had nothing to post about as a result! lol I hate to not be yakking away here so I thought giveaways were a good answer. Stay tuned - there are more coming.

Hi Kerry, sorry you aren't feeling well. My favorite beads are the ones made of semi precious stones. I love that they come from the earth. Hope you get to feeling better.

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
