New Game ...New Rules....well ...sort of

Here is the progress on my Mondo Giveaways; we have had 15 winners so far, four of which are International. I've given away a book, jewelry, artwork, a shuttle, a bead spinner and lots of HDT both silk and cotton, beads, and handkerchiefs. Can I get a WHOOO HOO?

Since we are all having so much fun I have decided to keep the Mondo Monday Giveaway going indefinitely. The only difference will be that it won't be EVERY Monday, it will be some RANDOM Monday; could be one Monday a month, could be two Mondays in a row! Who knows when,... you don't,... I don't, isn't this fun??

Since we are going from Weekly Mondays to Random Mondays, the rules are slightly changing for purposes of standardization. This will make life much easier on me.

For ONE entry you must leave a comment on the CONTEST PRIZE POST.

For TWO entries you must have a blog and you will need to put the button below on your sidebar AND include this (2) in your comment. By doing this you will receive TWO entries.

Those of you who have already graciously put the old banner on your blogs; you will need to update it with the new one below.


Click on banner to open image, then right click to "save picture as".

Please put this image on your sidebars and have it link back to this post.

Trying to make a life a little more fun!

Hey, I think it's pretty cool that you listen to "Keeping Up Apperances" when you're pottering away down in your studio, LOL! I was thinking to myself after I posted my blog post about winning your prize and watching Hyacinth all weekend...I thought, "What if Lady ShuttleMaker HATES Hyacinth...she will not like this combination, LOL! WHEW! I am relieved you like the show, LOL!

Here's a whoo=hoo from a newbie tatter, thrilled to enter the wonderful finger-dance of tatting, and equally thrilled to enter a give-away. I've been tatting for about 2 1/2 weeks, and cannot get enough. I have given myself dry-eye over it, enough so that I went to an opthamologist. If I remember to blink more often instead of staring intently at my work, it should go away. Hah! I've worked with several different colors, experimented with differing weights of thread, played around with my own patterns, and have un-tatted about as many dense doilies as I have created at this point. So I am excited to enter tatting blog land and so look forward to following yours---atzabeihem.

Barbara Gordon said...

I'd like a chance to win to, even though I'm not to lucky at this....great idea, and thanks for sharing...!
PS...I tried, and tried, but I can't get the picture..

Cheryl said...

WOO HOO! WOO HOO! I am newer to tatting, but loving it! If I had a blog I would defiantly post, no blog as of yet. I do love visiting yours.

Unknown said...

I can crochet.i can knit. I can quilt. I can sew. I Will Learn to Tat. Really, tatting is the one hand craft I have not mastered,because, I have never known anyone I could watch do it. Learning from a book has not worked. I even have a bunch of those work basket mags and a shuttle. If I win your Monday give away hopefully I can figure it out!
