OK, folks, I promised you a give-away this month, so I'd better get going. No special occasion to celebrate, just my feeling that I've won enough times that it is my turn to pass it forward.
Here we have: "The Craft of Tatting" by Bessie Attenborough, a nice little book with lots of traditional pattens. (The book itself is in good condition, but has only part of the dust jacket remaining.)
"A Book of Edging" from Coats & Clark, a leaflet from 1982, also a bit worn.
A half-ring braid bracelet kit that somehow showed up extra after I taught that class at Palmetto last year. The kit includes a Sew-Mate shuttle.
A floral design wooden shuttle by
Georgia.
Byzantine chain maille earrings by
Jeff, known as Redeye on Etsy.
A tatted teapot with buttons by me.
A ball of vintage Star tatting thread.
A pill keeper good for storing beads, (or pills, I don't care:)
Maybe some more stuff I find later until the box is full.
To enter, simply leave a comment to this post. I will select the winner by some random method a week from today, on February 5th. So did I meet my deadline by posting in January, or miss it by drawing in February?
Oh Martha, a give away is always on time. what a lovely give away, thanks in advance if I am chosen
ReplyDeleteWOW! What a wonderful selection. This is a really generous gift please count me in
