You know the saying............
"Better late than never".............
Well, I honestly thought I was too late for this:
But, when I went over to Kim's blog this afternoon, she says I am NOT too late!! Yayyyy! I am so happy, because I made something really special for this Giveaway............ just for you!
So, here is my giveaway..........
I am offering this sweet little handmade pillow
And a sweet book by Emilie Barnes,
Illustrated by Susan Rios~
I made the little pillow from an embroidery pattern I downloaded a while ago from this wonderful blog:
I think it is so sweet of Floresita to share these transfers!
Anyway, I made the sweet birdie emboidery, then framed it with blue gingham,
you may notice I used mostly "baby-blue" for the pillow, in honor of sweet Grandbaby-boy, who will soon be making his appearance :-)
And, here is the back of the pillow......
including the insert which is removable...
the pillow is 12" X 12"
I am also including this sweet little hardcover book for you....I have one myself, and when I found this one at the thrift store last Summer, I just knew it would be perfect to give away to one of my "bloggy buddies"
It truly is a sweet little book- 64 pages-filled with the most wonderful illustrations
I treasure mine, and I think you will enjoy it
So, there you have it~ My Cottage Charm Giveaway.........
I hope you will leave a message here for me, or you can email me at:
and I will be happy to enter you into my drawing!
I will draw a name 11:30PM, tomorrow night, May 31st
It's just my little way of saying Thank You!
Good Luck!
