Bag ready!

By sfknitty, on August 11th, 2008%

I promised a bag as a prize a while back, and it’s done!! I haven’t made any progress on my lace scarf…(shakes her head in dismay). I will get a picture . . . → Read More: Bag ready! Read more »

Prizes and Competitions Oh My

By ShadowDancer, on July 10th, 2008%

Hello there!

It’s Me again — the Prize Maven.

To celebrate my return from the wilds of Canada, and to further celebrate the fact that I think….. just maybe… I have all of the members accurately listed in my magic spread sheet (the one I use to award prizes) AND that I think I have all of the competition entries logged correctly……

I’m awarding another prize. Interweave Press will be sending another copy of their magic Lace issue of Piecework

(are they nice or what?) and Woolly Seashell will be sending out another set of stitch markers (because she enjoyed doing it so much the first time ’round, she upped her donation!). To whom, you ask? Well, I’m a wicked Prize Maven, and I’m going to make you wait until I take care of a bit o’ business.

If you have registered for one of the quantity competitions, you should find yourself listed after the break. Please check. Please please please. I want to be sure that we have you correctly registered for the right competition. AND that we don’t have you incorrectly double registered or registered for the wrong one. And that I’ve not been a complete twit, and haven’t omitted anyone. So. If you promise to check carefully…..

You do?

Good!

Here’s the lucky winner: It’s Erica! (errs)! Erica, I’ll be emailing you — but you can contact me too.

So..

I’ve been remiss in a few things.

When I arrived here in Maine, there was a wee package waiting for me:

Upon removing the bubble wrap, I found this lovely wrapped bit… looking just like a giftie

And inside:

By ShadowDancer, on June 30th, 2008%

As you may or may not know, I’m in the midst of an annual road trip to my mom’s in Maine. We’ve arrived safely after a week of driving and visiting and generally having a good time.

While I’ve been playing and driving, folks have been continuing to lend their support to our KAL.

By ShadowDancer, on June 18th, 2008%

Two quick thoughts.

2) Rules for competitions and Raffles: Please read them carefully

Look Ma, More Needle Bling

By ShadowDancer, on June 13th, 2008%

Ya know how I caved when looking at donors’ pages?

I did it again.

This time I did it before the donor even got her etsy page up. I’m not even sure that she has it up yet! But I’ve got stitch markers…..

My favorite bit was that I got to order 25 of them. . . . → Read More: Look Ma, More Needle Bling Read more »

Bling for my needles.

By ShadowDancer, on June 12th, 2008%

I got new bling today…..

I got some yummy new stitch markers, courtesy of Crimson Orchid . I blame this purchase on you guys. I’d been able to resist buying stitch markers, even when my buddy Elizabeth taunted me with new ones that she was ordering…. at least until I started prowling around hunting up prizes . . . → Read More: Bling for my needles.

First, I wanted to remind you all that in order to submit things for the competitions, you have to include the url . . . → Read More: “Mom Note”, Sponsor Update and lack of Lace Read more »

More Strangers — More Kindness!

By ShadowDancer, on June 2nd, 2008%

As much as I’d like it to be true that Meg Swansen knows me… she doesn’t. Nor does Tami. So when I contacted them, I was, once again, seeking the kindness of strangers.

And once again…. I was rewarded. In addition to the book that I couldn’t help ordering for myself (making the decision . . . → Read More: More Strangers — More Kindness! Read more »
