give aways



No time to download all the photos as yet - very busy with orders and unpacking the returning stuff from Geelong and getting ready for all the lovely goodies coming back from London. lots of new things on the horizon but in the meantime I have a few freebies.

Two postcards I sent off to Quilting Arts for something came home today so I am happy to send them off to new homes.

A book 'Speaking in Cloth'


and 4 packets of clear polymer stamps which have never made it to the website and won't. Designed by Stacey Aperitos, they are all ones which I use regularly but I am clearing the decks a bit.

If you fancy any one of these goodies, leave a message and we will do a draw from one of Ian's delightful beanies.

  1. GLad you had a good time in both London and Paris. I tried to catch up with you at the K&S show but every time I came by your stand you were missing!! Although I am not a quilt maker I like the sound of the book you have on offer and your ATC's, please enter my name into your draw.

    I too am glad you had a good time while you were away in Paris and London. I really enjoyed looking at your photos and hearing you talk about your trip. I also love the idea of a give away.

  3. OK you shoe-a-holic (I'm sure there must be a scientific name for obsessions such as these), I'm game for the draw - I'd be happy to take possession of any of these lovelies. BTW, loved all the photos you've been posting lately, the food, the buildings, the everything.

  6. Welcome home "Emelda", do we get to see the new shoes too?

    & who could say no to a textiley giveaway? I don't think Ian's beanie will be big enough.

  7. Hi Dale, how kind to think of us blogreaders when you're clearing the decks! I would love to go into the draw for any of these goodies.
    It was great to read about your European travels - and see all the pics - made me quite a bit homesick...
    Cheers,

    Yes, I am very interested in any one of those give aways. Postcards by you would be a treat as would the stamps and book. I am in the us but I could get you some shipping money if I still could be eligible. I have been following your adventures in the UK Judy Haas in South Dakota.

  16. I'm sorry that you are home again - well, not sorry that you are home, just sorry that perhaps it means no more photos from Paris. We were there last year, and looking fro your posts brought back all the memories - especially the photo of you beside the big pond in the Luxembourg Gardens. Don't the kids just love pushing the boats back out, with their long poles!

    More please!

  19. Welcome home Dale or should I say Emelda. It was lovely to talk to you at Ally Pally. I hope that you have enough room in your cupboards for your new shoes. We have had snow today in Chelmsford, it took my son an hour to get home from there and he stil has snow on his car. (Photo will go on my blog later)

  20. I am intrigued by the stamps! and I know JeaenetteDeNicolis Meyer (in the book) is coming to New Zealand for the Quilt symposium in April 2009 so I'm torn!!

    I feel reckless (must be the mad weather here) put me into the beanie for either, both:-))

  31. Hi! Dale,

    My first thought before I read the textwas what delicious little quilts and a lovely orange colour, then I read the texts - Please may I be in the draw.

    Looking forward to seeing all your new stuff, sounds like you are making double time to make after a lovely holiday in Paris lucky you!

  32. Dale,
    I really enjoyed your "postcards" from Paris and London, you should write a travel blog ! On second thoughts, you have a busy enough life already! I'm also a member of the shoes admiration society, although I own more than I can wear comfortably by far. Wide flat feet are difficult to fit, so I have to content myself with admiring other peoples dainty little shoes and lusting after antique embroidered ones on the web.

    Please include my name in your lucky draws.
    Hooroo,
