three time's a charm

What is better than having one giveaway winner?... um, try three! With my little helper Jasper doing the random draw this morning, the three winners of this month's giveaway (and their answers to what their favourite craft tool/material) are:

1. Kristi McMurray (www.kristimcmurry.blogspot.com): I love my scale miniature deer. I photograph other miniatures for my shop, but my deer are my favourites.

2. Stacey Winters (www.staceywinters.blogspot.com): My favorite craft tool is my exacto knife, couldn't do a lot of things without it!

3. Tsuki aka LittleGrayFox (www.littlegrayfox.blogspot.com): My favorite tool is probably my embroidery thread. I have practically every color, it's really quite ridiculous!!!

Congrats to all the winners! Each of you is getting the Sublime Stitching Embroidery Pattern and two lovely pin brooches in the mail soon... happy stitching! Thanks again to everyone who entered... and stay tuned for the giveaway next month!

february giveaway - win an embroidery pattern and two pin brooches!

It is that time of month again... as in giveaway time! A bit of a twist to this month's giveaway too... there are three opportunities to win, since all good things do happen in threes right? I am such a fan of Sublime Stitching, that I decided to offer three of their awesome iron-on craftopia patterns as a thanks to all my readers and followers. And to add a Cabin + Cub touch to the prizes, each pattern will also come with two cute 1" patterned button brooches made by yours truly.

Enter to win by posting a comment telling me what your favourite craft tool or material is... maybe it is your trusty glue gun (or perhaps you are really hardcore and also have a glue gun with matching holster), or do you cherish your knitting needles, or perhaps you are a little too addicted to your bedazzler... let me know! Post your comment and you could be one of three winners!

A random draw will be made next Wednesday (February 23rd), so check back to see if you win! Please remember to include some sort of contact info (etsy shop, blog, website, or e.mail address) and please only one entry per person. Good luck!

sublime collaboration

I am a huge fan of Sublime Stitching, so when I was asked if I wanted to contribute a "woodburning how-to" using one of Jenny's famous patterns, I was thrilled!!! (Yes, there was some dancing on the spot and spontaneous robot and running man maneuvers that happened that day... um, apologies for possibly implanting that visual in your brain). I think the results turned out quite well. Check out the step-by-step on how to woodburn a mini-cutting board here... there are simple pics and instructions. Also check out the post about the cutting board on Sublime Stitching's blog here. Happy burning!
