thanks for joining in to our Friday Night Sew In get together last week....I love how social media has made it so easy for us to 'be' together whether we're in the same room, the same state, the same country or in a totally different time zone!
Ten years ago or so, when I first began blogging and took that tentative step into the big unknown world, being able to 'meet' with others and talk to new people with similar interests was so liberating (and still is!) particularly if you're in a small country town, isolated from groups in the big cities. Now with the added plus of social media, it is far more 'instant' and it feels like you're right there with each other, regardless of where you are! I've met so many beautiful people who have now become close friends because of both blogging and social media and I feel just so blessed, thanks to you all!! *mwah*
One of my very closest friends was my very first commenter on my blog and she has now become FNSI's major sponsor.....
Kitty Rose Cottage is a wonderful little online shop......Kitty Rose has a beautiful array of Kits, Clubs, Stitch-A-Long Packs, Fabrics and Sewing Essentials that she uses and recommends herself. It is the home of the Little Box of Creativity, a monthly surprise ingredient box to make a lovely sewing item and is also a stockist for Tilda. Check out these gorgeous little bunny purse frames she has.......
aren't they divine!!!!??? But you'll need to be quick.....these bunnies are hopping out the door!
And don't think that because you live overseas you can't shop with Kitty....not only does she offer $7 Flat Rate Shipping within Australia (Tracked), she welcomes International Buyers and offers competitive International Postage Rates.
Kitty Rose (aka Dawn) is not only a creative and talented designer, she's a truly wonderful person with a heart of gold and will go out of her way to help you, so if you're looking for something special, just pop over to her shop and ask. She'll be only too happy to help.
Have a look at what she's provided for this month's FNSI prize!
Let's jump right in and see who our lucky winner this month is. We had 33 lovely ladies join with us from all over the world so without further ado.....here we go........well, maybe not! I've video-ed the draw but for some reason it won't upload and I have been trying for the past two hours!!!! grrrr.
It worked perfectly last month so I don't know what the issue is! All I know is, I'm not happy with it.
However, them's the breaks and the alternative is a photo of the draw! So, who is our winner this month?????
CONGRATULATIONS!!! make sure you drop us a line with your postal address and details and I'll let Kitty know so she can post your parcel off pronto!
Have a wonderful rest of the month.
Big sugary hugs xox :o)
Dawn from Kitty Rose is very generous to support FNSI with a lovely gift each month , thank you.

Congratulations Stitching Loving Nana. xx And thank you Wendy and Kitty Rose! xx
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Jocelynn! What a lovely prize. Wish it was me! Haha! Thanks for hostessing us again, Wendy, and special thanks to Dawn for the wonderful prize!
ReplyDeleteI was disappointed I couldn't make this month but I hope to come back for next month's virtual sew in.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to the lucky winner!
ReplyDeleteI have very few real-life friends who cross stitch, everyone seems to knit or crochet so discovering the online world back in about 2010 was a real eye opener.
This UK Stitcher found your US blog via an Aussie too, so that really is worldwide connections!
Thanks for hosting another fun night and thanks to Dawn for her sponsorship... it's always fun to sew with friends...
