First Advent Sunday Give Away!




I don't know about you, but I love the Christmas season with everything it entails. I love decorating the house, baking "tons" of Christmas goodies but most of all I love making, buying and giving gifts. That's why I'm having a series of give aways during the month of December, on every Advent Sunday to be precise. It's also to thank all my lovely readers for sticking around.  As today is the first Advent Sunday, here's the first give away.


Please leave a comment on this post, making sure I have a way of contacting you. The give away is open to everyone, no matter where you are. I will draw a winner next Sunday and at the same time announce the second Advent Sunday give away. Good Luck.

Cheers
Vreni

I have fallen behind on making things for Christmas as I have spent the last couple weeks on remodeling projects. Time to get back to sewing! Love the Ready, Set, Snow fabrics -- maybe they would help get me going again.

Marg said...

I love Christmas but it has come way too fast this year. I have had no time to make Christmas gifts so far but I'm hoping to make a couple of little things in the next week or so.
The Ready Set Snow fabric is really cute, I love the bright colours in this line.

I'm running behind with Christmas gifts this year too! Hopefully I can get some gifts sewn up quickly. That Ready, Set, Snow charm pack would be perfect for a quilt! Thanks for a chance to win! :)

Uuh...wie spannend ist das denn, liebe Vreni.
Da schmeisse ich mich doch direkt mal ins Lostoepfchen.
Ich wünsche dir einen schönen ersten Advent, bei dir ist ja schon viel später. Hier schläft noch alles.
Geniesse die Zeit mit deinen Lieben.

liebe Gruesse

Hi Vreni, from " Down Under" yes, Australia. What a lovely idea for giveaways. I love Xmas too, but I loved it even more when my daughters were small. I look forward every Xmas Eve to watching a huge concert here called ' Carols By Candlelight" unfortunately it is televised from another State so too far for me to get there in person. :)

What a lovely idea to mark the Advent Sundays! I love the traditional colours and never used the wackier colours that were so popular in previous years!

Hello Vreni,

Happy days.

Liebe Vreni,
inzwischen ist ja der 1. Advent ins Land gegangen und er 2. rückt ganz nah heran. Ich mag diese Zeit auch sehr gerne. Ab kommenden Freitag werde ich "ganz viel Zeit" haben, um alles so richtig weihnachtlich zu dekorieren, denn dann ist unsere große Tagung um.
Bei solch wunderschöne Stoffen hüpfe ich natürlich gerne noch in Deinen Lostopf.
Dir eine gute Zeit und sei ganz lieb gegrüßt
Roswitha

I don't feel like it should be time for Christmas just yet (where did the fall go?), but reading blogs is helping to put me in the mood.
