Winners!

-


I am delighted to announce the two winners of the 100th anniversary giveaway. With the help of a spreadsheet and a random number generator two lucky winners were found.  They are "Crazy Mom Tats" who will receive a popabobbin and "tatterjil" a post shuttle in the turquoise box.  Congratulations to you both, could you both please e.mail your address to popabobbinshuttle@googlemail.com.


As this was to celebrate my 100th post I just had to give a prize to the 100th comment, sorry it isn’t a shuttle, because there isn’t a shuttle available at the moment, instead there is a box with some goodies in.  Congratulations Kathy Niklewicz, I have received some wonderful and interesting comments from Kathy since blogging so feel I do know a little bit about her, please can you also send your address.


Many thanks again to all who entered from all over the world, perhaps I should hold another giveaway?!!!


 
This is a necklace that I made for myself,  and I wear it quite a bit and it generates many comments. The HDT thread is from some Sue Anna sent, but I have mislaid the label so have forgotten what it is called!  This has now become a favourite pattern of mine and I am still perfecting it as more necklaces are made for friends.  If anyone is interested I will gladly write the pattern down and put it on this blog.  I might even be able to persuade big sister to draw it for me!!!

100th Blog Anniversary

To celebrate my 100th post and to thank all of you out there who have been so supportive to me and "I'm in the garage" over the past 17 months, we are giving away two prizes, each comprising of a hand made tatting shuttle.  One will be a Pop-A-bobbin shuttle and the other will be a post shuttle.  So there will be two winners.  The shuttles will be put in one of these specially decorated boxes. It is good to win something you really want, and some of you prefer using a post shuttle rather than a shuttle with a bobbin.  So in order for that to happen you have the option to choose which type of shuttle you would like and which box.  So when you comment please put either "Post" for Post shuttle or "Pop" for Pop-A-bobbin shuttle.  However, if you don't mind which shuttle, you will have a double chance to win, as your entry will be put in for both, so in that case please do not put a preference. As for the box, if you have a preference for the colour the...

I finished this doily a few days ago but I am actually not that happy with it, the thing is the  piece really needs damping, blocking and a good press.  This should not be needed but I think some parts of the pattern did not work that well.  I have used three makes of thread on this doily Manuela, Coats and Lizbeth all 20.

Today is quite special for many reasons it is Advent Sunday in the Church.  Advent is a term from the Latin word 'adventus' which means "arrival".  It is a time of waiting for the arrival of Christmas and is associated mainly with Advent Calendars and in particular the fun of opening to see what is revealed behind each number!  Whilst in Scotland the people are celebrating St. Andrew's day as he is the Patron Saint of Scotland.  Google has marked the day with a doodle of the Flying Scotsman - the world famous steam locomotive. However,  here on this blog there is a special giveaway.  Please leave a comment if you would like the chance of winning the shuttle and thread holder (please note this does not include the piece of wood underneath or the foliage), you have until 3rd December when I will announce the winner by using a random number generator. The shuttle is made out of sequoia,  the tree that the wood comes from stands in front of the ...
