Back to MY Giveaway - A while back I was sent a free cross stitch kit by Yiota to review. I chose the Coffee Fairy and here's my progress so far:
And here's what she will look a little like, one day:
Well, Yiota must have liked my review because she offered to sponsor a giveaway on my blog. As I was so close to the magic 250 I decided that would be a great excuse.
All you have to do is visit Yiota's website, browse around the gorgeous designs and choose your favourite three. Come back here and leave a comment on this post only, telling me what your three favourites are. I will choose three people at random to receive one of their choices. Actually, the Large Boy will randomly choose three people!
The closing date is teatime BST 31st May 2012. There are three prizes of one pdf chart each. The chart has to be one of Yiota's designs as they are the only ones she can make into pdfs. The descriptions on the designs clearly state which ones are available as pdfs, so that makes it easier!
You get one entry for leaving a comment with your top three and an additional entry if you mention the giveaway and Yiota on your blog. To qualify for the additional entry you must link the words "cross stitch kits" to Yiota's website. The geeky reason for this is that it moves her website up the Search Engines' priority lists. So if someone googles "cross stitch kits" Yiota's website will be closer to the top of the page the more links there are across the internet to her site with those words.
Finally, a Big Thank You to all my followers, old and new, especially those that comment. It's so good to connect with stitchers around the world. Next post I'll be putting up details of how to join in with the Summer Postcard Trail. It's all go around here!
