Giveaways around BloggieLand and a Winner!!

 While it's 100+ according to the Heat Index I have been busy staying inside and sewing!

I really do not like hot weather.

Here's one cutie little apron I made.  Reversible and child size with a fabric rose hair clip.

I love the precious Japanese fabric with those bunnies!!

  

 

Sunday I tried to play "catch up" on my bloggie reading.  Wow.  I was way behind.  And I still didn't finish but some Sunday afternoons just beg me to take a nap ;)

As I perused the vacations pics, the fun projects and all the latest bloggie news I found a few GiveAways that I thought you might want to enter.  Then again, if you don't enter my chances are better. heehee

First up - Angie of Mama Lusco Handmade is home from vacation with pictures!! 

Beware - some are of a hot country singer! 

She is giving away this adorable headband.

It's reversible too!

Next, I visited Elizabeth at Thoughts from an Evil Overlord.  Don't be skeert!  She really isn't evil.  As a matter of fact she's really sweet and loves to read.  She reviews books and often has an extra to give away. This time it's The Island by Elin Hilderbrand.

Finally, our friends over at Craft Gossip are having an amazing giveaway!

They are offering 3 Etsy shopping sprees 

(each to a maximum value of $100). 

They will also pay for shipping.

I am entering so here's my "Wish List!"

 

From Lisa and her adorable the hemline shop I am in love with this Lady in Red Bag! 

  Not very glamorous but I could use of the these cone thread holders from zipperstop.

 vintagegoodness has this fab Hawaiian cat that I neeeeeeeed. 

 

This sah-weet camera is in Found Eclectic's shop.

This oh so orange charm pack could be mine from Pleasant Home.

 

Local designer Sachi Ivy made these beauties!!

thlvintage has these bindings that I really, really need!

So there ya have it!  My wish list is done. 

Go look around at the fabulous etsy shops and make your own.

Oh yeah, my GiveAway!  I went back to the first method I used here in Bloggie land - our trusty drink shaker maker.

 

All the names went in and

Mindy is our winner!!!!!!!!

July is Almost Over?!? Giveaway

I am having one of those "where the heck did this month go?" moments.

Bill Hubby and I have been busy so time flies.

Following the July Celebration In Liberty, NC we set up at the Garner Arts and Crafts Festival.  

  Again, we met amazing crafts folk and some really nice customers.

Again, sales were disappointing. 

Again, I think it was the heat.

We will be checking out more venues and let you know if we are setting up near you!

In the meantime, go peak at my etsy shop.  Lots of bibs, tissue covers, an apron and a couple of sets of coasters.

Plus, There are still a few days left for the 

Christmas in July specials!!

I got a huge surprise today! 

I was featured on The Apron Goddesses!

I don't know how they found me!  

But dang what a sweet write up!  

Thanks to the Ladies who are The Apron Goddesses!

Which brings me to another little announcement - I now have 99 Bloggie Friend Followers!!!
