BLOGTOBERFEST - Day 24 - Clear Skies Ahead

I've finally come back down to earth after the ride that was last week. That means it's time to catch up on giveaways. Oh yes, there's a winner of the wallpaper giveaway and I've got a new giveaway for you too.

So, let's get this party started. The winner of the wallpaper giveaway is Kellie at 74 Lime Lane. Congrats Kellie. Get in touch so I can organise to send your parcel out to you.

Now for the new giveaway.


How would you like to get your mitts on a Tinnie? If you're new to these parts and you don't know what a Tinnie is, it's a tin filled with gorgeous fabrics, buttons and trims. Like a lucky dip for grown ups. I used to make them and sell them but now I just make them on very special occasions. Occasions just like this. So if you'd like to be the proud owner of a Tinnie you can leave a comment any time till midnight Monday, or until I get around to drawing it.

Oh, and be sure to pop back tomorrow. I've got a message for you.
