first friday freebie.

We are very excited to be featuring our dear friend and fellow Etsian, Donna, of as part of this month's "first friday freebie". Donna is the artist and creative force behind "Blue Daisies". Donna's specialty is pincushions and when you visit her etsy shop and see all of the amazing one of a kind pincushions that she handcrafts and meticulously embellishes we are sure that you will agree that she is a true artist in every sense of the word. We feel very fortunate to have acquired one of Donna's unique pincushions and we are offering it as this
month's giveaway.

Last spring Donna participated in another giveaway so if you would like to learn more about Donna and her passion for pincushions then you will want to visit "the sew weekly" and read her interview. We just love this comment from Donna,

"For anyone who is nimble with a thread and needle, a pincushion has huge sentimental value. Every pinhole in them represents all the projects that they helped you with over the years. I think that’s why so many people love them! :)"

The draw will begin today and will end Sunday, January 8th, 2012 at midnight (Pacific StandardTime). The winner will be randomly picked using random.org. on Monday January 9th and they will be contacted the same day by email. Be sure to check back on Monday to see if you are the winner!!

Note: The pincushion is as shown and is from a smoke free, pet friendly environment and we are happy to add that we ship internationally.
