Etsy Christmas Prize Package Drawing

I figured it was probably time to give you a little hint at what will be included in my etsy drawing prize packages. I'm not going to tell everything, but I will give you a couple hints ;-)

In case you have no clue what I'm talking about, I am going to give away 3 wonderful prize packages in December. Each item in the package will be hand made by me. Some are items similar to things I have stocked & some will be complete surprises!! Every single item you purchase from my etsy shop between now & December 15th will get you one entry into the drawing. Winners will be posted here on December 17th, items will ship via UPS to guarantee Christmas delivery!!

Each prize package will come to in a very festive package, you may want to hang with care.

The mama package will be sure to get the recipient cooking in style.

The boys prize package will bring out the monster in your little man (not the scary kind).

The girls prize package goes perfect with a spot of tea & also includes a little something to hang from the tree.

These are just a few little hints, I may post teasers pics between now & then, so stay tuned.

Custom listings count as well, so if you see something listed, but it's not your color/theme, feel free to contact me, I may just have what you're looking for :-)

Apples & Fabric

My inlaws live on a farm & have a wonderful fruit tree orchard behind their house. Every year, at least one tree protests & refuses to produce any fruit, well this year, the apple trees made up for the others shortcomings.

Yesterday was a day of apple baking & I must say, the Apple Peeler, Corer, Slicer from Pampered Chef is the probably the best invention EVER! It saved me hours of peeling & slicing apples for the abundance of pies we made yesterday. It takes about 30 seconds to finish an apple & the little one's thrilled that they could help crank the handle.

My house smells scrumptious & we now have pies stocked for Thanksgiving, Christmas & a few just because occasions. We also have enough applesauce to last until next harvest! I am quite happy to announce that I finally found something to use those itty bitty cookie cutters that the kids HAD to have last year! They are the perfect size to use on the leftover crust pieces for pie decor.

I still have a basket of apples if anyone has a great apple recipe, please share it.

In the midst of my baking, I was pleasantly surprised to have the UPS man show up with a box of fabric that I ordered on Friday!! I guess 3 day select counts weekend days now as well :-) There is nothing better than a stack of beautiful fabrics fresh off the bolt. Swoon.
The Moda figgy pudding will become a quilt for us & perhaps a dress or two, if I decide to share.
The Lantern Bloom is mostly mine & will shortly become a mama skirt. The girls already have dresses from this line, so now it's my turn. I also have some scraps saved from my last batch & will more than likely transform them into a quilt as well.
I also got a bunch of Michael Miller's Christmas line as well, but the pink was turning almost blindingly neon with the flash (stupid cloudy days). Those are for custom orders, which I will post more about in a few days.
