November Giveaway!

I pondered what  to offer for a giveaway this month and decided I'd better go Christmas..this is a nice candle mat I made and heavily beaded...its a little puffy as I used quilt batting...for the second winner, will get to choose a set of the fabric tags from my Etsy shop......please go over to Sweet Home Stitchery to enter....and for more information.....
I've been looking for  homespun fabric but our local Walmarts are not carrying it any more..I dread going to Jo Anns as its so crowded this time of year...I don't have a phobia but really hate crowds....and waiting in line for long periods....plus its a 20 mile trip.
Our weather is getting cooler..especially at night....we've been raking leaves and enjoying the night air...rain is forecast for tomorrow.....it was cool enough this morning to put a sweater on!

  1. I really like the added beading on your candle mat. I just noticed our local Walmart is actually carrying Homespun now. In the past I have always had to go to JoAnn's which is 1/2 away from here too!
    Now I only have to go 5 minutes from the house to get it. Yippee!

  2. Hi Dani,

    There is a small fabric area in our local Walmart here in the mountains. I used to be 30 minutes from JoAnne's, Michael's, and Hobby Lobby so I am saving money here!

    I do have a pile of fabric's to work with when I finally get settled and unpacked.

    Have you looked at the thrift stores for clothing made of home spun?, men's shirts and get a lot of fabric.

    I love your pip berries and have them all over the house here. A candle mat is perfect to add to my tabletop where we do burn a candle with our meals now that we really eat at the table!

    Huggies, Cyndi
