Annie Louise.......

This young lady is Annie Louise. She is the Annie doll that I made for Lindi at Quilty Threads. I also made the gingerbread man and hanging ornie too. Lindi said in her profile that she liked gingerbread but I couldn't find the real thing, so stitched one for her instead. I thoroughly enjoyed making this Annie for Lindi and was thrilled with the one she made for me too. These blog swaps are such fun! This little cupcake pincushion was another little something included in Lindi's parcel. It turned out so lovely! I made it from a pattern that I was lucky enough to win from a giveaway on Shelley's blog, Angels Come to Play. It was easy to make and is so cute, I plan to make some more real soon.

Now, talking about giveaways..... it just so happens that the 15th of May was the one year anniversary of my joining in in blogland. I will also be up to my 50th post very soon. So, with these things in mind, I figure it is my turn to give something back to blogland. From this post until my 49th I will count any comments in the draw. 13 is the highest number of comments I have received before, I would love to beat it and to get some idea of how many sneek a peek at my blog. I would also love the opportunity to give something back, perhaps, to someone that I have been lucky enough to win from, or have had the opportunity of meeting through the many swaps I have taken part in.

So, that's it. All you need to do is leave a comment from now until post 49. Oh, and if I seem to go missing again, don't despair, I am still having intermittment computer problems but will return, and will make the draw as promised. And the prize.....well that's not quite decided on yet, so it will be a surprise too!
