Don't Forget to Enter

Becky Myers' Beach Angel, designed by Mile High Princess
As part of my Evil Plan to tempt poor innocent stitchers into trying painted canvases, I have a giveaway of a Mile High Princess canvas, stitch guide, and all the threads necessary to stitch the canvas (which is called Beach Angel).

You can enter the giveaway by either posting a comment here-
http://chillyhollownp.blogspot.com/2010/09/pirate-cat-for-beginners.html

or by emailing me at chilly hollowat hotmail dotcom since I know commenting doesn't always work (bad Blogger!).  Remember, I'm asking that only folks who haven't done painted canvases before to enter since this is meant to get new folks started.

The deadline for entering the contest is tomorrow, Monday, October 4.  I'll draw the winner at random Tuesday morning since I'm on an early time zone compared to the rest of the United States and this will give overseas folks time to enter, too.

The giveaway is sponsored by Dale at Canvases Be Gone, who provided the kit and stitch guide. It has been helped along by my friends Becky and Mimi, who provided Ruth Dilt's Needlepoint 202 to provide further help beyond the stitch guide, and who let me use the photo of Becky's finished Beach Angel above.  Thanks guys.  Blog readers appreciate it!

Hi Jane, I like the new pink (dusty pink) background on your blog page... unless my eyes or computer screen are acting up. Hope people take advantage of your wonderful give away opportunity.

No, your eyes aren't fooling you. Suddenly this morning I was sick of the ivory color and wanted something new.

What a cute design. I wouldn't mind giving this (new to me) technique, so please include me in your drawing. Thank!

I just posted about the giveaway on my blog - I meant to do it earlier, but it slipped my mind! Sorry about that. Hopefully it'll get some of the counted cross-stitchers over to give it a try.

If I hadn't signed up for Janet Perry's cyberclass with the kimonos, I would have entered in a heartbeat. It's such a cute piece! :-) I'll just enjoy finding out who is lucky enough to get it!

Sure you don't want to enter, Erica? You've got time....
