A year of blogging (and a giveaway)

This giveaway is now closed.

Well, I can’t believe that I’ve been blogging for a whole year and I am more amazed that my blog-birthday didn’t pass me by as I’m not usually very good at recognising significant dates.

To celebrate, I’ve decided to have a giveaway and share my love of Liberty of London. You may have spotted the odd bit of Liberty fabric in some of my projects – this is just a fraction of my Liberty fabric stash. I'm not very good at using my Liberty fabric, but I love reading about the different designs and the historical element of some of them and so I was delighted to receive the "Liberty: British Colour Pattern" book for Christmas.  

This is an absolutely gorgeous book, especially if you are a Liberty-phile like me, and it covers many aspects of the company, not just the fabric. Distributed amongst the pages are envelopes containg bonus materials such a reproduction adverts, designs, etc. It was only published last year and a section about the recent Lifestyle range of craft cottons is included.

 
(If you want to know more about the book, Kerry from VeryKerryBerry and Carina from Carina’s Craftblog have reviewed it on their blogs, so head over there and take a look.)

Due to the size and weight of this book, I’m going to have to restrict this part of the giveaway to UK addresses only, but for overseas readers I’ve raided my stash and will part with some of my precious Liberty fabric.  There are skinny quarters of Liberty Lantana wool in the classic Hera pattern and Liberty Tana Lawn in the classic Pepper pattern, as well as few scraps of lawn that would be suitable for string piecing.

To win one of these prizes, all I ask you to do is to follow this blog. There are buttons for following with Bloglovin and Feedly, but if you have another method, do let me know. Leave a comment saying how you are a follower and which prize you would like. If you have a UK address, you can choose the book or the fabric, but overseas addresses are limited to the fabric only. A bonus entry is available if you spread the news of this giveaway by Twitter, Facebook or on your own blog – just leave a second comment telling me how you’ve shared the giveaway.   

The giveaway will close at 10pm GMT on Wednesday 5 March and if you are a no-reply blogger please make sure that your comment includes a way of contacting you.
