POST EDIT:  Bhav has now been traced and Dolly will be posted on Tuesday to her new owner Vibha!

OK so I have sent another email to my winner "Bhav". 

If i haven't heard anything by tomorrow morning UK Time, then I will draw another winner using Random.org

Watch this space!!!

Anybody out there?

What do I do?

I have emailed my winner, and announced it here, but NO RESPONSE?

We are supposed to get our prizes in the post by the 30th!  

Do I redraw?  How long do I wait?

Advice please!!!

May Giveaway Day!


So - we have reached the day and I am pleased to say that I have finished my item!!!!  This is the first time that I have participated and the first giveaway that I have done (eek!)

Ok so here is my item:
Dolly needing a home!

Close up of feet due to the cuteness of buttons
If anyone would like to give this doll a home, please leave me a comment by Midnight on the 25th May (Next Wednesday).  I'll pick the winner using random.org and put the doll in the post by the following Wednesday...oh and I am happy to ship her across the sea's so anyone can comment.

I am also willing to embroider a name of choice onto the doll's dress for the lucky winner 
(like I have done on previous dolls - see previous posts)

If you are not interested in my doll, then do go checkout Sew Mama Sew for a list of all the other lovely bloggers participating in the giveaway!  (although you might be some time)

A little daunting...

A while ago I read a post over on Stash Avalanche... it was about May Giveaway Day held by Sew Mama Sew.  I have always loved the idea of Give-aways but not felt that I am crafty, accomplished or daring enough to hold one.

However, for some absurd reason I found myself signing up and then somehow chose to forget I ever did it!!  

So today, I have been sewing like a banshee (can you sew like a banshee??)... 
I am making another Doll to give away on Monday (although I am not sure who would want it?) 

I am a little nervous to say the least!

I don't even have any photo's to show you - as I have been busy cutting, sewing, stuffing, embroidering and worrying.  She is almost there...I just have her hair to do and some last minute flourishes.  I will offer to embroider a name of choice as I have done for the Twins.  

Oh and not only have I been cutting, sewing and stuffing ONE doll...but TWO, as I am also making one for a little girl called Grace!  Can't wait to get that one in the post next week sometime!

Watch this space on Monday when I need to post my Give Away!

...

I also baked my favourite cake (not that I needed to psych myself up or anything)

Upgrades...

I decided the dollies needed a little somethin' somethin'...

They got their names embroidered

...and little collars/necklaces

...cute no?
So that is it...they are finished (promise)
