SewMamaSew Giveaway Day Has Begun!!

Yes the day has finally begun.  It is the SewMamaSew Giveaway Day which only happens twice a year.


Now before we go on to what I am giving away, please go over to my other blog 'Michell's Cross Stitch'  and check out my give-away there too.
So what am I giving away today on this blog?

The first winner win get this lovely Moda Nostalgia Turnovers pack.  This has 80 triangles and if you join the half square triangle blocks you will have a 5" square with seams. 



The second winner will get this Pin Cushion and a Fat Quarter with a native New Zealand bird called the Tui on it.




Tui are common throughout New Zealand in forests, towns and on off-shore islands. They are adaptable and are found not only in native forests, bush reserves and bush remnants but also in suburban areas, particularly in winter if there is a flowering gum about.

These attractive birds can often be heard singing their beautiful melodies long before they are spotted. They are recognisable by their distinctive white tuft under their throat, which contrasts dramatically with the metallic blue-green sheen to their underlying black colour.




So what do you have to do to enter?

Just leave a comment.  Any old comment will do.

I would love it if you would follow me, but that is not a requirement.

Only one comment please.

Entries close Friday 25 May 5pm PST or here in New Zealand that is 12pm Saturday

I will post anywhere and everywhere

Please make sure you are if you are a no-reply blogger to leave your email address, as if I can not get hold of you, I will redraw.

And don't forget to go over to Michell's Cross Stitch to enter another giveaway.

Good luck.

    It's funny to me that that is that birds name. Tui is a beautiful town in Spain. It's in the provence of Galicia where my family is from. It was an christian episcopal see by the 6th century and was even mentioned by Pliny the Elder and Ptolemy. It's just across the Minho River from Portugal. Beautiful bird and beautiful town.

    Hello Michelle. Thank you for giving away such great prizes. I haven't heard about Turnovers before. I like the idea of being able to buy half-square triangles. For some reason, they are hard for me to cut right so this is nice to be able to buy them. I will be on the lookout for them now.
