Santa's on his way.....Giveaway!!!!

Not too long to go now. I am slowly getting organised and only a few more pressie's to get and then it's the food!!!! My very non favourite place would have to be the supermarket. I loathe it. having to think about what everyone wants to eat for the week and then there's the whole cooking thing that is associated with it..........me not like cooking.

Lining up to load it on the conveyor, then in the bags, into the car, out of the car, into the cupboard and fridge....................eeerrrrggggghhhhh. BORING! but that's me. I know my sister Mel loves the supermarket but can't quite talk her into doing my shopping. Funny that!! LOL!

Now don't get me wrong, I luuuuuuuuurveeeeeeeeeeee my food that's why I have a Christmas wish list this year that is short and sweet!

Dear Santa,

Please bring me a chef, a maid, a masseur, a personal trainer, a beautician, a typist (for my favourite past time pattern writing) LOL!, and a person who wouldn't want to be anywhere else other than the supermarket. I think that covers it. Have I forgotten anything????

Now there is no gender preference although a tall dark handsome "all of the above" would be fine............fine?? what am I thinking.......that would be GREAT!

Thanks Santa, you're the best!!

I shall leave fruit cake and milk.........promise. LOL!!!! Oh and a carrot!! sorry Rudy :-)

That's not too much to ask for...........is it???  NAH! Anyway I have posted it off to the north pole so I guess I will just have to see if I am on the nice list this year 8-) 

Ahhhhhhhhhhh! I am slowly in unwind mode and it feels good. I do have just a couple of deadlines but there not due till late January so I can think about that later. Just pottering in the garden, catching up with yucky housework..........are you hearing me Santa! and designing for the new year at a nice easy pace is bliss. The Chrissy tree will go up tomorrow. I have to perform a death defying act to get into the shed to retrieve it but armed with gumboots and overalls, it should be a successful mission.

Be it a time for giving and spending time with or just catching up with family and friends from near and far I have a few gifts to share as well.

I have 2 each of my "The little School House" pattern and "Isabella's Weekend Away" pattern to giveaway.

 

It's is just a tad late to make for Christmas but nice to have something new to sit and stitch over the Christmas holidays.

Just leave a comment on this post and you will go into the draw to win one of these patterns. Now because it is Christmas it should be a surprise. So I will surprise each winner with either pattern. You won't know which pattern you are going to get until you open it!!

Fun hey!

I will announce the winners this coming sunday night. That gives me time to get to the post office and get them into the Chrissy mail.

Hope your getting organised.

So until next time.......

Be Jolly in Stitches

[Mary Grace McNamara]

Both patterns are just darling and I would love to win either one! How nice it would be to get a little Christmas gift from so far away!

I'm totally with you on the planning, shopping and cooking thing. I'd much rather spend the time in my sewing room!

Hi Natalie

I agree with you.... shopping is fun (that is for presents when you know what to get!!) but food shopping... I want a Chef for Christmas this year.

Thanks for another giveaway.

What a fabulous giveaway, I would love to be a winner. While your writing to Santa could you ask him for 2 of everything and if I don't win the giveaway I'll take the extras from Santa!!!!! Just Kidding.

[Paulette Doyle]

Hi Natalie
Gosh my santa letter reads just about the same as yours except for the typist bit - we have to leave designing lovely patterns up to special people just like you.
Hope you have a great christmas and new year and santa sends just that right someone that meets your job description!!!!

[Dolores]

Would love to win either of them.

[sharon]

What a lovely but difficult choice to not have to make!! Here's hoping for a special surprise!! (I must admit I do have a daughter that would LOVE the weekend away bag pattern - but we shall see!!!!)

[Christy]

Vry pretty and delightful patterns! So glad to have discovered your blog. You are very talented!

[Beverley]

Hi Natalie

Yes please enter me in your lovely giveaway. I would love to win one of these patterns. Normally I love to shop, even food shopping, but not at Christmas. Too many people and it's just stressful!!! My fav part so far has been having my godchild around at the weekend along with her mum and little brother to help me put up the Christmas tree. Kind regards, Bev

[Janelle]

Hi Natalie
Yes, I would definitely be happy to win either of your patterns! I espeically love the school house pattern - soooo cute!

[Ann-Maree K, Highfields]

Love both of the patterns - they are so fun and colourful. I will borrow anyone who loves food shopping as that is one of my pet hates any time of year especially with a 2 year old in tow who thinks she should have everything and won't stay in the trolley.

[Debbie]

Natalie, I love surprises and it would be nice to win either, as usual your patterns are lovely and would brighten any Christmas.

[Catherine]

Hugs Catherine xx

[Linea]

Kind regards from Sweden

[wendy]

You are definitely playing Santa, but who doesn't love a surprise.

[lyn lindsay]

Natalie sounds like you love the supermarket as much as I, if a coffee before or after comes with it, I'm a happy girl.
Love your two patterns and would love to be a recipient of one.
Have the best Christmas may there be much rest and good times with family and friends.
Til next time Lyn

[Lyn Smith]

Oooooh I love them both. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas, with not toooo much supermarket shopping.
