20 Followers Celebration Giveaway

Hi everyone,

Finally have found some time to post about my 20 Followers Celebration Giveaway. Sorry to take so long after a teaser about it in my last post a week ago.

Anyway, I did a bit of rootling through my stash and then a quick trip down to my local craft shop, Lazy Daisy and did a bit of shopping.  So, the goodies for the giveaway are shown below:
A Barb Smith Stitching design booklet

A kit for making a chicken wall hanging

A Juniper Design Cross stitch of an Australian icon - a beach box

A couple of skeins of gorgeous Australian hand-dyed threads
So, here is how to enter:

  1. If you are already a Follower, just comment on this post and let me know that you would like to enter
  2. Become a Follower and then comment on this post to let me know that you have joined and would like to enter the giveaway (let me know your url and then I can follow your blogs, too)
     3. Post about my giveaway on your blog and you will gain a second entry in the giveaway but make sure  that you comment on this post to let me know

I will post worldwide, so join in the giveaway, wherever you live.

My 20 Follower Celebration Giveaway will close on Friday, 19th August.

Good luck everyone,

Bye for now, Kaye

hi, not sure how to contact you other than this!
Thanks for commenting on my blog.....I sure do appreciate it...
The design you asked about is a Little House Needleworks Monthly Sampler...that one was October. They are sold as kits...
The ticker is a great way to 'see' your accomplishments!!!

Shari said...

congrats on the rising number of followers....I just added myself & I will also add you to my blog roll, because that is where I view blogs from....I would love to enter your giveaway..thank you for the offer!

Hi Shari, thanks for both your comments. I will look for the Little House Needleworks design in my local shop. I have added the ticker to my blog already, by clicking to the site from your blog. I am swimming laps and since DH and I want to go to NY next year, I have converted that into laps and set that as my goal. Only 65,000 laps or so to go! lol!

Also, welcome to my giveaway - good luck!

Congrats on your followers Kaye, but don't enter me. I already have twenty very large projects in my rotation. I don't need anything else for a long, LONG time!!!

Kaisievic said...

@ Gill, if you scroll down on the right a little you should see the Google Friend Connect button or across the top of the blog you should see a Follow button - just click on that. Good luck - I will consider you a follower anyway even if you still are having trouble - consider yourself in the draw!

Hi Kaye,
It looks like you've moved your "Followers" up on your blog and now I can finally see them! I am your 23rd follower. Please enter me in your giveaway. I will post about it on my blog now.

Kaisievic said...

Hi Southpaw, Yes, I had moved them up a bit and then I decided that maybe right near the top was wear it needed to be so I moved them again. Glad that you finally found them - sorry to make it so hard! lol You are in the draw twice now.

cheers, kaye

Hi Kaye,

You left a message on my blog about a couple of kits.
Dictionary of Tea is by Bothy and Winter's Majesty is by Maia, they're both pretty widely available in the UK. I didn't but Dictionary of Tea, I'm stitching it for a friend and I think I got Winter's Majesty on ebay or similar. However, I think either sewandso.co.uk or sewalong.co.uk do them, possibly stitchability.co.uk as well.

Kaisievic said...

@Demeter83,

Thanks for your really quick reply - I will try the sites which you mentioned.

cheers, Kaye

I am a new follower & I would love to enter your Giveaway - The first stitchery is absolutely darling & I can't say I have used Australian hand dyed thread - I would enjoy the opportunity - Thank you for the fun ;)

CalamityJr said...

Hi, Kaye! I just wandered over here from The Southpaw Stitcher's blog, and will be a follower as soon as I write this note, so now you're up to 21 followers! Thanks for the chance at winning your lovely giveaway. I love what you're offering - I've been wanting to do some embroidery again (it's been many years since I've done anything other than cross stitch), the beach hut makes it a fun-from-Australia gift, and a stitcher can never have too many overdyed threads!

Hannah - City Stitcher said...
