Blogiversary Giveaway!

Happy birthday to me!  I'm 2 today!!

It's just staggering where the time goes! 

In the 2 years I've been blogging I have learnt so much and have made so many wonderful bloggy friends.  I love being a part of this online community.

I'm also touched beyond words to those of you who regularly read my blog, and also to those of you who are able to leave comments.  I love getting comments, and they have often been the catalyst to some lovely friendships.

To celebrate my anniversary, and say thank you to my readers and followers, I'm giving away 10 fqs of Price Charming by Tula Pink....

...... and I'll also make you your very own travel sewing pouch in the colours of your choosing.





Just leave me a comment telling me what colourway you'd like your travel pouch made in. I'll let Mr Random Number Generator do the dirty on Friday 28th December! (If you already have a travel sewing pouch, I'll make you a different pouch!).

If you are a 'no reply comment blogger' (i.e. if you have left a comment here before and never got a reply from me!) then you will need to give me your email address in your comment so I can contact you.

And just in case you don't happen to win this time around, the travel sewing pouch pattern is available here in my Etsy shop.

We have a winner!

Thank you lovely readers for entering my blogiversary giveaway, all 38 of you!

My beautiful bloggy buddy, Ceri, inspired me to be more creative about choosing the winner of my blogiversary giveaway.

So out came the Uno and my trusty little helper.  The first number drawn out from the 0-3 numbers was:

and then a quick shuffle of the 0-9 numbers to get

That means the winning number is 06 - NICKY!

Well done to Nicky!  Martha May will soon be winging her way to you with something Fuscia inside (better get my thinking cap on!).

And want to hear something hilarious?  Guess who was number 7?  Only Golden Touch Hadley!! Phew! Talk about a close one!  

And a final pic of a wee extra stocking filler for footie mad daughter no.2.

Ayumi's baskets - intended as desk tidies - well we live in hope!

Have a fab Friday!

1 Year Blogiversary!

It's exactly one year ago today that I wrote my first blog post.

My amazingly talented friend, Sarah, started blogging a few days before, and suggested I do the same!  I went from never being the least bit interested in computers to needing a 'fix' every day! 

It has been a wonderful year of learning, growing, being inspired by the astounding creativity out there in blogland and of course, making some wonderful new friends.

I would like to say a special 'thank you' to those of you who take the time and interest to pop over and read my nonsensical ramblings.  I never would have expected anyone to be interested in this creative venture, let alone hang in there week after week.  You rock!

To celebrate this special milestone I would like to make something bespoke for one of my regular readers, so I'm not doing a generic giveaway.

I would love it if you could tell me 1. your favourite colour in fabric, and also 2. choose one of the following handbags which I would be delighted to gift to you.  One comment will do for both & I'll find some means of randomly selecting the winner (Archie could you please teach Poppy how to select winners?).

Thank you for celebrating with me, and I look forward to another year of blogging with you!
