Here is my 100 followers giveaway celebration. A feast of red, white and blue sewing items all packed in a lovely vintage sewing box.I think the Royal Wedding must be rubbing off on me with my patriotic colour scheme. I know I promised to be back on Sunday with my giveaway but I've felt so grotty with this bloomin lurgy that all I wanted to do was curl up on the sofa.
It gave me chance to think about what to giveaway and as I havent been out the house for over a week to the shops it involved a bit of creative thinking.
I didnt want you all to think I was just getting rid of some of my "junk" !
I decided on this vintage sewing box that I have had for a while - I do really like it but would love one of my bloggy friends to have it - I then decided to fill it with little treats.Some are vintage bits and bobs from my collection including this toadstool darning mushroom, ric rac and embroidery stitches booklet.
Some wooden cotton reels, vintage pins, scissors and thimble.
Some lovely vintage buttons still on their cards.
I thought it would seem a bit impersonal without a little bit of "me" - I made these Union Jack sewing accessories a while bac
k - pin cushion and needle case (with needles).There are also a few little appliques - hearts, anchors and a few more.
I am in the process of setting up a little haberdashery business so have included some ribbons and buttons that I will be selling.I hope you like everything that I've put together and I wish you all the best of luck.
You have until Tuesday 30th November to enter by leaving a commenton this post. I'm sorry but the sewing box is quite heavy so I will have to limit the main prize to UK only - however if you live overseas and would like to take part in the celebrations - leave me a post mentioning which country you are in and if you win I will send you lots of sewing items - ribbons buttons etc. I will still pick a UK winner for the sewing box kit.
Good Luck everyone and thanks for being a follower XX
