Are you enjoying the Sew, Mama, Sew Giveaways?
I am clicking like a crazy woman between the blogiverse and the amazing comments on yesterday's post. Good luck to all of you on your entries; there is some wonderful handiwork out there amongst the English. (I loved Harrison Ford in Witness!)
Today's Groundhog Prize features one of my favorite projects. Wool felt pins and barrettes have been my best-selling art show item and I am sharing two with you!
I gave the Pioneer Woman one of those little owls when I went to her last book-signing here in Cincinnati. The sunshine is to bring the sun's rays back after last night's storm.
I have also included some wool blend felt strips from my stash and some craft thread for embroidering. I added in some pretty little buttons and a few pin backs so all you need is a darning needle and sharp pointed scissors to make your own pins.
This giveaway ends at noon on Thursday, May 26 EDT. All you need to do is leave a comment with a good name for my little owl friend. Granddaughters will select the winner.
Don't forget! Yesterday's Giveaway is also open until noon on the 26th. Have fun!

I think he's Harrison. Don't ask me why, but that just sounded a name for a handsome owl.

I would name the owl Darius because Darius Rucker used to be known as "Hootie."
