What do you say to a …… giveaway party!

Hi Guys,

To celebrate the opening of my little shop and because I forgot my 2nd blogiversary about a month ago…and after my last post I checked my stats and some numbers matched up! I have done 143 posts and had 143 followers! How cool is that!

So that makes 3 ….. lets have a party!

Over the next 3 weeks I will have a giveaway each week! This week I have for you -


A bunting covered 2012 diary! Since my last bunting diary was quietly popular I made another one!

The diary/journal is a my.mini.organiser diary – designed to keep you organised! I found them at my local newsagent and they are fantastic, the perfect size to cart around with you – it measures 18.5cm x 12cm.

I used scraps for the bunting and some Reunion, Sorry its from Hometown, what was I thinking? by Sweetwater fabric for the background. I really loved making this and the bunting is so fun looking!

So to enter all you need to do is leave a comment telling me what you hope to get out of 2012…..what you want to achieve, your hopes and dreams for the next 12 months!

And if you are one of my valued followers you can have a second entry! Just leave a comment saying you love me…..only joking, just let me know you are a follower!

PS. If you can’t wait to win this diary I have a couple more that I just listed in my etsy shop. They are all different and unique! My creative juices have been really flowing, worth a look really!

    Congratulations on your shop and your blogiversary and your followers.

    What a great diary cover, so sweet!

    In 2012 I've taken up the Free Motion Quilting pledge, plus I want to finish my Birdie Stitches and Civil War quilt tops. I'm thinking I'd like to run a block of the month/quilt-along project too, but we'll see.

    Oh, and of course then there's get fit and lose weight ;)

    Well, there's so much I'd love to do in 2012 but there is never enough time. Spend more time with my daughter sewing would be first on the list. Then hopefully finish many UFO's. And of course stay healthy. Val B (MUM)xo

    For 2012 I have a couple of mini goals 1st is to unpack everything from the house move by the end of Jan - even those little boxes that hide in cupboards and you forget about - nope they won't be safe from my unpacking eye! Secondly I'm trying to get better at time management because right now I suck at it! I am the woman that leaves the house 5 mins after I'm meant to be somewhere. If ever anyone needed an organiser I do lol

    That cover is awesome! I don't have a diary for 2012 yet...I need it!!
    I hope 2012 isn't as disastrous as 2011, what with the floods in QLD that went on and on for what felt like months, and that most communities still haven't gotten over. I'm hoping for a bumper season for the Theodore cotton growers this year! I'm personally hoping to be more crafty, and to finally get my studies completed.

    What a gorgeous organiser! I am looking forward to 2012 - it will be the first year for a very long time that I have one job instead of juggling 3 part time jobs! I hope to have plenty of sewing time and I hope the children keep doing well at school.

    What a fabulous cover for the diary...I absolutely LOVE it. The diary looks good too :)
    I want to be better organised in 2012 and finish at least half my WIP´s, and spend so much time sewing that I don´t eat and therefore lose weight, whilst enjoying myself :)
    And restart my blog.

    2011 has been a difficult year, so I'm just hoping for a "better" 2012. But this morning I decided my goal is a quilt a month, plus whatever other sewing jazzes me at the time. Easy peasy - I hope.

    Congrats on 2 years, 143 followers, and a new shop! What a fun way to start the new year. And such a cute diary cover too. Love those little pennants. Too fun!

    I hope that my husband gets full time work - he had an interview 2 days before Christmas and is waiting to hear. I hope to spend more time sewing by being more organised in my day to day routines.
