New and Improved Mr Fox giveaway

While making a new mr.fox sample for the recent market display, I realised he was very fiddly. And really - does he have to be so tricky? Nope! So I made some slight adjustments and simplifications, changed the drawings and hey presto! Here is the new improved simpler more user friendly Mr Fox bag-tag craft kit! (here is the old mr fox for comparison)

To celebrate I am giving away 2 new and improved mr.fox bag-tag kits. Leave a comment here or over on our facebook page 
Giveaway will be announced in one week's time on Tuesday the 24th.

Blogtoberfest Sweet By and By Giveaway Winner

Is it over already? Blogtoberfest 2012 finished and gone? Well not quite.  There's still some housekeeping and finishing off to do - like announcing the winner of the Sweet By and By necklace giveaway.

Frankly, I'm tempted to send everyone a necklace. But that's not really practical because I don't have enough! But thank you to everyone who entered and in fact a big thank you to everyone who commented on blogs during Blogtoberfest. It really helps! And boy were there times when I needed it!

SO the winner is..................Jen from Madeonthecouch! She chose "Winter"

Announcing the blogtoberfest re-sew-cool giveaway winner!

 

Well I did this the old fashioned way – names in a hat and my five year old daughter  Wanda was the “barrel girl” and drew the winner…...and the winner is....hueisei from the Love it Sew it blog! She is a beautiful stitcher and quilter! Can’t wait to see a picture of the finished re-sew-cool gingerbread man and gingerbread house Christmas ornaments. They will be winging it all the way to Malaysia.

Yesterday I was at the Finders Keepers market at the Exhibition building – yes me and the rest of Melbourne! I helped out on the Gleaners Inc stall for the afternoon.  Markets are so fascinating. I find it endlessly interesting to people watch – babies dribbling on things unbeknownst to their mothers who are engrossed in shopping, many a bored boyfriend being dragged around and lots of mums and daughters.   

I sold a few of my neon hexie necklaces ....and that gave me some pocket money....which was timely because I went out last night to see a local band, The F100’s. 

It’s the first time we had been out to the local pub in years! Literally!! The F100’s played some toe tapping country in the front bar. As their bio says, they draw "from the honkytonk well of Lefty Frizell, George Jones, Merle Haggard & Buck Owen's Bakersfield stylings". Perfect! Nice shirts too.

It was a late night and then we walked/stumbled home.

Needless to say I am feeling it today. Ouch!

Don't forget the Sweet by and by giveaway is still going!

I have never done a giveaway before so I hope I am going about this in an okay way. I put the ten names in the hat and got the kids to draw five....yes there is probably an easier way -i.e. not involving small children or hats! Always easier to not involve small children!!!Or hats.

Here are the  5 winners:
Deb (two cheeky monkeys)
Nicole (Dabbling all Day)

I'll contact each of you through your blogs to get your postal addresses. You each receive a plum pudding ornament kit and a Christmas candle ornament kit. Each kit makes 2 ornaments!!!
