Winners!

I apologize that we neglected to announce last week's winner!

 

Our random winner of Aimee Ray's Doodle Stitching is:

Cindy G
I love Aimee's work! I've been wanting to learn Sashiko, and I bet she has a fun project to make it a little less intimidating.

Congrats, Cindy - and thanks again to Lark for providing a review copy and making this giveaway possible! And here's Pam's wonderful finished doll - sweetness, eh?



Scandinavian Stitches Giveaway
We have a winner of these gorgeous threads contributed by Lynda of Scandinavian Stitches! (By the way, if you would like some interesting reading on Danish Flower Thread, I recommend this post on Mary Corbet's Needle n Thread.)

I had a great time reading through each and every one of your awesome comments - what a great stitching circle we could make! I love just how many of you would choose to stitch with your mothers and grandmothers - including those that have passed on, are ill, and those that are a great distance away. So, everyone's mother, grandmother, sister, and ancestors are invited!

I particularly loved the following stitching partners:
Royal School of Needlework
Miss Marple
Betsy Ross
Louisa May Alcott
Jane Austen
Rosey Grier
Albus Dumbledore
Dame Judi Dench
Jenny Hart / Jillian Tamaki / Erica Wilson / Mary Corbett
A round table stitch-athon with Jenny Adin-Christie, May Morris, Queen Margrethe II of Denmark and my Granny
Martha Washington
Elinor Dashwood
Mary Queen of Scots or Anne Boleyn
Elizabeth Fry
Queen Elizabeth

So, they're invited, too! But, my hands-down favorite had to be Albus Dumbledore, so here is our winner:

Shakibing
I'd love to stitch with Albus Dumbledore.. after all if he loves knitting patterns, he might as well love embroidery


Genius! A man who enjoys knitting would make an admirable stitching companion, I agree. This was awesomely fun - thanks everyone for contributing! And thank you, Lynda for sponsoring such a nice prize. Remember you're invited to visit Lynda's home show April 19-21 in Stamford, Connecticut - read the original post for RSVP details.

And you might want to check in later this week for information on another upcoming giveaway!
