freebie day, hooray!

Freebie day already?
This year is flying by so far!
Before the freebie news I want to show you this ::
...another green fan placed an order :-)

Today was a work day because I had Monday off to finish the cupcake order, so this morning I got up at 6.30am to put the finishing touches* to the freebies.
It was nice to think about something new and a little different for me ..... so today the freebie prizes are.....
Two felt purses :-)
One is stripey ::

and the other has a pretty apple ::

as usual all you need to do is leave a comment on this post and I shall enter your name into the random draw.
PLEASE make sure there is a way to contact you or remember to check back on Sunday 9th March (in the evening) to see if you've won :-)

*for finishing touches read 'make them' ;-)
RULES :: anyone can enter, even if you've won before and the prize will be posted free of charge worldwide so don't let geography stop you :-)
Good Luck!

  2. I love the stripey guy! And I just took an applique class last week, and the perfection on that apple is killing me. Let's just say my first attempts at that cool craft were ... eh ... less than stellar. I'm still crazy for all those cupcakes you did! :-)

  12. Wow, look at you, zippers and everything! After 11 years (?!) of owning my sewing machine, I just last week discovered it came with a zipper foot. Ha! Maybe I'll have to try to figure out how to use it one of these days.

    I love the apple purse, I want to win, can we rig the prize draw or is that impossible on a random number generator! Only joking!

  28. Green would be appropriate for St. Patrick's Day, coming up. I've never done a zipper in felt before, so would love to see how yours turned out. Thanks for your generosity in hosting freebies!

  30. I simply can't believe that you have all those cupcakes to do and yet you're still doing a giveaway!

    Are you mad?? Very kind and generous (obviously) but quite quite mad?!

    :)

    ps. I know that creeping holds no sway over the random number generator but I thought I'd give it a whirl anyway ..... tempered with an insult .... ;)

    Hello. Nice blog and great purses. I read your blog about lurkers.......guilty, but I have a good excuse....I'm totally new to the blog world and I only just found out that I could comment without having a blog....yep, I'm a bit slow. Anyway, blue is my favourite colour and green is my daughter's (I said that before....), nice detail on the apple.

    I love the textures you use - the cupcakes look fantastic as do the purses - it's the felt contrasted with other materials I think that does it but whatever it is, it's fab!
