Introducing Travelling Treasures

Hi everyone,

Happy Easter!

I would like to introduce you to an idea I have had for awhile.  I think it will be fun and I hope you will join in.  The original idea credit all goes to dear Melody.  Melody offers a chance to win a giveaway on her blog on the second Tuesday of the month that is called Tuesday Treasures.  I was her lucky winner a couple of months ago and I have made the needlecase from the pattern and fabric she sent me.  Since I don't need the pattern any more, I've been thinking that it might be fun to pass it on. Squishy mail is always better than a flat envelope!

Thank you Melody for your kind words of encouragement for me to proceed.
Here is the plan so far (feel free to offer suggestions or comments because this is my first giveaway so I am still learning)!


I will post the pattern from Melody and include a second pattern from me.
I  will add a fat quarter to get you started and a little notebook for you to sign with your address and blog address.
I will keep to the same date as Tuesday Treasures (2nd Tuesday of the month) to act as a reminder and avoid confusion.

You can keep either or both patterns.  One month later, (Tuesday Treasure time), send any two patterns, a fat quarter, and the notebook along to the next person.  Offer a giveaway on your blog, then send the goodies on to your winner.  You can have a contest or use random # generator.

To join in, you need to have a blog or a friend that will post an update on their blog for you.

Feel free to grab my new button.  I made it all by myself, and it's my very  first one! :)


Ok. I think that pretty much covers it.  I offer to you a guessing game as a chance to be my first ever  giveaway winner.  I hope  you will play along.  The more, the merrier :)

If you read my blog, you know by now how much I  love dogs and hope to have one soon.

I have had 3 dogs in my childhood and adult life that were all very much loved.
All 3 were female.  When I was very  little, the first girl  was a dachshund. Later, there was a lovely  beagle mutt rescued from the shelter (sweetest dog ever!), and the most recent one was a blue heeler/collie mix, also rescued and much loved.

The first person who correctly guesses the  name of  -any-   ONE  of the 3 girls will be my winner.
Please leave your  THREE   guesses in ONE blog reply,  so I won't get too confused :)
Let's have fun, and good luck!!
xx debbie
