Just Hop over to my Shop. The bunnies and I truly appreciate your support of small business owners. Thank you!
Now on to the giveaway! As many of you know, I have a love of books and enjoy giving them as gifts. Even though computerized book readers are nice for holding lots of books, there is just something so special about touching a page of paper. Plus, licking your finger flip a page on a computer screen makes a mess! hee,hee,hee. So anyway, this month I'm thinking a little French Inspiration would be fun!
Pretty cool huh?
The second book is Creating the French Look by Annie Sloan. Here's a little peek inside this one.
The random number generator will pick the winner on Wednesday, March 16th. Everyone worldwide is invited to register for the prize. We are delighted to have friends in so many countries!
Good luck and happy stitching everybun!

HI Shell,I agree I got a book reader from computerize man for Christmas but I still go to my much loved paper version of Pride & Prejudice. I just love piles of books they are somehow comforting to me and just as well cause my home has many piles. Always room for more and I do love love French. I am enjoying the heart stitching I will post a pic for you. Happy Stitching Chrisb.
Oh gasp!!!! How simply beatiful.....and I have such a special relationship with books! Yup, I'm a follower :-)
More books? More inspiration? Yay!
It would give me more things to moan and groan about that I want to make. For instance, your BOM is on that list.
Thanks for the pattern. Soon, very soon, I will get to sew some things for myself!!
Another lovely heart pattern. I'm putting these away for when I'm ready to start stitching them. Thanks Shell!

I have blocks i and 2 completed and will get to block 3 when we return home. We are visiting in Bluffton, South Carolina with our son and his family. The sunshine has been nice here. The books in your giveaway are great. I am a follower of your blog of course, I always enjoy my visits here.
I'm loving the heart blocks. What a fab giveaway, the only thing that would make it better is if you included Harrington and Sugie!! Can't see that happening!

I am working up the courage to start blogging....I spend a lot of time looking at terrific blogs like yours. Sandi
I would love to win the books. Thanks. I am doing the heart blocks on white linen that happened to be an old table cloth of my mothers. They really stitch up nice on the linen. My mother would be happy to see me using this cloth. Blessings: Dianne
