Giveaway!!! - CLOSED

Well with all the generosity going on around blogland .... so many fantastic auction/raffle items and so many amazing and generous bids on those aforementioned items ... I really wanted to say thank you to all that have gotten involved in the Qld Flood Appeal Auctions by having a giveaway!!

If you haven't gotten involved yet it is not too late. Auctions and raffles (most raffles are now open until Wed 26th of January) are open until midnight on Monday 24th January 2011.

Click here for more details on the auctions.

So what am I giving away?? ......................


Sherbet Pips Charm Squares

It's a much sought after charm pack of Aneela Hoey's adorable "Sherbet Pips"!!

To enter all you have to do is tell me which item you have bid on, or that you are holding an auction/raffle yourself, or that you are participating in "Quilts For Queensland". You don't necessarily have to bid on my auctions, but if you did it would make my day ;)  (my auctions are now closed).

This giveaway is open until 12 midday ACST (Australian Central Standard Time) on AUSTRALIA DAY, Wednesday the 26th of January 2011.

The winner will be picked by the trusty random number generator.
Make sure that you can be contacted by email, either through your blog (make sure your status is not set to no-reply blogger) or leave your email address in your comment.

A special THANK YOU to Toni & Carli for getting this all started!!

  6. Great giveaway this is just so popular and it hasn't even been released yet! I have two auctions on my blog which you can come and see if you like http://edanrose.blogspot.com one is for some FMF fabric and the other is for 2 of my Oilcloth Lunch Sacks. I am also making some Quitl blocks for Quilts for Queensland. Such a generous time to be part of the crafty/bloggie community :)

  8. I'm so awed by all that the crafting community is doing to help those in need in Australia. I have made two softies (Lenny the guinea pigs) which are making their way to Australia today - One for Queensland Flood Appeal Dolly Drive and one for Hope Softies. I'm considering making a quilt as well for Quilts for Queensland if I have enough time!

  12. I am amazed how much these auctions have already accumulated. Thanks for sharing the sherbet pips! I'd LOVE to win :). I entered the raffle at http://theredthreadblog.blogspot.com/2011/01/queensland-flood-relief-appeal-raffle.html for a sewing machine, and will definitely enter a few more (the bids on all the auctions have exceeded my budget!).

  13. Hi,

    I am participating in Quilts for Queensland, as well as Sarah London's Crochet a Rainbow. I am so proud of the online community, and the work people have done to create auctions, and come up with so many ways to help out. It is truly inspiring.

  16. Your pillows are SO pretty! I wish I could bid on so many things... My hometown (Nashville, Tennessee USA) was devastated by floods recently. Though on a much smaller scale, people and a place I love suffered.
    Currently I am bidding on a darling bunting pillow, but of course I will donate even if I am not a winner. Thank you for your participation!!
    Best wishes!!

  17. I love your cushions and am so disappointed not to be able to bid on them. Thank you for being so generous.
    I've entered raffles run by Sarah Fielke, Fat Quarterly and Rebecca at Chasing Cottons; hoping to manage a little more too.
    My heart goes out to everyone affected by these terrible floods.
