No, I'm on about the Cold Season Giveaway my Mum and I hosted here a few days ago.
The drawing was yesterday at lunch time and took place under supervision of my Dad at my parents' place :-)
As we've done in our previous giveaway, all the names were put into my Mum's sun hat:
And then she drew one piece of paper...
...unfolded it...
...and the name on it was...
...FRANCES!!!
Here's to you, Frances - congratulations!
Now, to claim your prize, all you have to do is go to my Mum's Etsy Shop (you should be able to get there simply by clicking on it in the top left corner of my blog) and make your choice. Once you know which item you want, just go through the normal purchase process - with the exception that you don't have to make a payment, but so that my Mum has your address for shipping.
If you can't find anything you want, let us know what colour, pattern, shape or size you'd like, and my Mum will knit something specifically to match your request.
In case something doesn't work with the purchase process (you know - the wonders of modern technology...), just get in touch with me by email (the address is on my profile).
This, by the way, is true for all of you - if you were not lucky this time with the giveaway, you can still get one or more of the pairs of socks, hats, beanies etc. my Mum makes, either for yourselves or as a present - she will be happy to welcome new customers :-)
Yes yes yes yes YES! I NEVER win things, so this is just great. Thank you so much, Meike and Meike's mum! I shall choose my prize a bit later if I may.
ReplyDelete(PS When I first saw the pic, I thought it was one of your recipes. A bowl of watercress soup, perhaps?)
You are most welcome, Frances :-)
DeleteHe he, I had to laugh at the "watercress soup"! It would have tasted a bit... dry, I'm afraid ;-)
Hello Frances,
Deletecongratulations! So you gave us a reason to drink a glass of sparkling pumkin-wine. ;-). And I really had to laugh about the "watercress soup"!!!
Congratulations to Frances! The 'smiling cake' looks so tempting...
ReplyDeleteI didn't stop at just one piece after I had my lunch :-)
DeleteCongratulations Frances! Let us know what you choose when you choose it. I think the give-away is always fun and I'm happy you won this time.
ReplyDeleteJill, my Mum and I love doing giveaways - this time, it was her suggestion, and of course the prize is her "donation", while the postage will be mine.
DeleteYour mother has a wonderful smile...And congratulations to Frances. I'm wearing a pair of your mother's socks right now and I love them!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kristi - both for complimenting my Mum's smile and her socks :-)
DeleteHello, I really feel flattered...Thank you, Kristi!!! ;-))
ReplyDeleteMeike, I got a bit muddled on your mum's website (all my fault), but as my prize would love the Van Gogh socks if she does them in adult sizes? They're beautiful! I'm a size 8 , which is pretty big. So sorry about this. I think she's incredibly lever. Knitting socks is advanced stuff. Many thanks again.
ReplyDeleteI meant clever...
DeleteI'll talk to my Mum about the Van Gogh socks; she'll knit them in any size, as long as she can find the right yarn :-)
DeleteWonderful! Thank you.
DeleteCongratulations to the winner of the giveaway! Frances, you will love the socks. I know I love mine!
ReplyDelete(I tried to leave this message yesterday, but am having slow computer problems again!)
Glad you like yours, Kay :-)
DeleteA wonderful prize. Well done Frances!
ReplyDeleteAnd my Mum has already been to the yarn shop in order to make socks specifically for Frances :-)
DeleteCongratulations to Frances! That was a sweet giveaway! :-)
ReplyDeleteWe had fun hosting it, and I am sure this won't have been the last giveaway on my blog ;-)
