squishy mail and giveaway.....

I tested a pattern for a bloggy friend - I had a great deal of fun doing it and it served me well, given I had already planned to make a quilt for a friend who has just had a baby..........so, win/win all round...........but Joan upped the ante!!!

I found this beautiful package in my postbox......


A beautifully printed pattern, enough fabric to make it (with thread too!) and a beautiful journal - how incredibly generous - thank you Joan - I keep petting the fabric and I have already popped the journal in my bag - it's an ideal size to take with me whenever I'm on the go - one never knows when one will get a scathingly brilliant idea!!

Now, I already have the pattern - obviously I needed to know what to test - so I'm thinking it'd be an ideal giveaway to share the love :)

Don't forget to jump onto Joan's blog to have a look around and to see the pattern made up 3 ways.

If you'd like to be in the draw to win the pattern only (sorry, I'm keeping the fabric and journal!!), please leave a comment on this post - mmmm, a theme for the comments - tell me what your latest surprise was.......entries close on Friday 3rd August at 12 noon EST and I'll do the Random thing when I get home from school - good luck :)

  3. My latest surprise was my hubby arriving home a day early. I had been at work, arrived home in the dark and he was inside sitting on the stairs when I entered the house. I got a bit of a fright but a nice one:):) A huge surprise as he had been away for weeks.
