the chosen...

Newsflash one...
I got the stars done!  Yay!  First item I can tick off the list...  


The Star Sign block

The Pointless block (as in it no longer has any points...)

Newsflash two...  Giveaway winners have been selected!

What's that?  Is it worth waking me up for?  Lets see.  NO.

Yes, unfortunately Elliecat does not make such a wonderful winner picker as Archie did.  I did think it could work, as she loves using her paw to fish things out of bowls.  Biscuits, cereal...  But clearly she had had enough of paper after yesterdays newspaper looper...   remind me to tell you about that on a more quiet day :-)  Anyway.  Sometimes you have to just use whats available... so my man kindly did the picking!



Winner number 1 is none other than Susan of Canadian abroad!  



Winners 2-5 are Tanya of Second Chance
                           Giles of Touch and Sew
                           Helen (not Archie) of Archie the Wonderdog
            and         Laura of Needles Pins and Baking Tins

Congratulations to the winners -  to the rest of you, I wish I could send you all a wee something.  Thank you!
The first come first served recipients of the fabric are as follows 
                         Bauhaus goes to Leanne of She can quilt
                         Green Check goes to Lynz of Domestic Light and Magic
        and Brown Green Swirly bit goes to  Liz of Lizard Bites

So, to all the winners and fabric recipients, if you havent already, please can you email me with an address and I'll be able to send your goodies out!  The fabric will go next week, the giveaway winners might be week after (I do have a monster big list looming over me remember!).

  5. Yippee! Woohoo! Happy dance! Tell your man he is wonderful please. And don't you worry about when you do my prize - I can wait until after you have less items on your list of things to do. The anticipation may kill me but it'll be fun finding out.

  6. I won something, I won something, I won something.... (have just yelled so loud with excitement that Mark came leaping out of the bath to see what had happened!). This is my first win since starting craft blogging 6 weeks ago, so thank you very very very much. Don't rush on my account, I will enjoy every minute of the excitment and anticipation. Happy days x

  16. Yippee, it's me!!! Thank you!! I laughed and laughed at the photos of Elliecat looking at her bowl of names, priceless! The stars are fabulous, I gasped and said 'wonderful' when the photos came up and I love the way you've used the fabric! Thanks again!
