Well what a fantastic response to my giveaway! Thank you ladies for all of your wonderful comments. I tried really hard to reply to as many as I could but they were coming in thick and fast. I did enjoy reading every single one of them and it was great to hear all about what you all love to do 8-) I have once again called upon the trusty random number generator and it came up with comment number 17. So a HUGE congratulations to..........................
There is only one NANCY who left a comment so if you could email me your snail mail address I shall give your "Fairy Meadow" BOM pattern pack to Postman Pat immediately. A huge thank you to all the ladies for being a part of my giveaway and popping in to see me here at my blog. Now that we are in July....dare I say! Everyone is getting in the spirit of Christmas in July. I am currently working on a Christmas project for Kerry at Cottage on the Hill. Kerry will tell you all about it real soon so I am under oath on this at the moment but why not pop on over to Kerry's blog and say hello! And while we are on Christmas I am putting together a pattern for a design I made ohhhh about 4 years ago for one of the magazines. I never put it out as a pattern but have had lots of interest everytime I take it to a workshop. Here are a few pics of "A Heartfelt Christmas" counting book. It is specifically designed for the little ones. This is the front cover. It is an interactive felt Christmas book. Lots of things to move and find with things to touch that have different textures.
1 Santa........PEEK A BOO!
The whole book is made out of felt and there is no machine sewing required. Just blanket stitching making it a great project to take anywhere. Working with felt is wonderful as it doesn't fray and blanket stitches beautifully 8-))
2 Peace Doves & 3 Angels
Mmmmmm those Doves sure have soft fluffy wings, and I wonder what is hiding behind the wings of those Angels?
What are you hiding under your hat Mr Snowman? And I can't wait to ding those bells......This is just half of my Christmas counting book. I shall leave the other half to show you in my next post. I have to tell you that I had heaps of fun designing and making this book. And Jack, even at 13 still loves flicking through it!
So I shall leave it there for now ladies. So until next time........
Keep those creative fingers moving "In Stitches"
Natalie
Congratulations Nancy and thank you for the fun Natalie!
