Draw Results and a Challenge Revealed

Thankyou for your blogoversary wishes. Eloise did the honours for me, and here you see her drawing a name from the "Teacup of Destiny".


And the winner is .......






Sally






I'll make a start on a little something for you soon Sally.

Note: the hand with the psychedelic nail polish is Eloise's not mine ;D




Its reveal day for the February Challenge on the Stitch and Stash forum. This month we stitched a Valentine design from Primitive Betty's . I stitched mine in Weeks Onyx and Lancaster Red, with metallic gold for the key motif, using a scrap of orphan linen and made it up into a little hanging pillow trimmed with a ribbon bow and a key charm. The album with the other finishes can be found here and is well worth a look.

  9. Christine: I LOVE the "Teacup of Destiny". The only reason I didn't enter was that I didn't want you to have to mail the prize overseas if I won. However, with the psychedelic fingers doing the draw I just might have to enter next time. Oh, and the valentine is fabulous!
