Ransomed geese and winners

Imagine my shock when I read this ransom note.

A ransom note posted!

My Ruby geese have been ransomed for chocolate, This naughty woman just won't give them back! What should I do? Hold out or send chocolate? I decided that I really wanted those geese to fly home across the Irish Sea so yesterday I posted a package.


Yes, the ransom has been paid but will my geese be released? Watch this space or this space!

Yesterday I was out and about, so imagine my surprise when in the evening, after lighting the fire and settling down on the sofa to read my emails and blogs etc. I opened an email from Helen at Indianna Dreams to say that I had won her Liberty Love giveaway of Liberty 10" squares. I was so surprised and delighted. Thank you so much Helen. I love Liberty fabrics.

They say that what goes around, comes around so I think that my Blog anniversary giveaway winner should be announced. I have made a triple zippy bag out of some postal themed fabrics.

So who is the winner?
Mr Random Generator has spoken…. 

The winner is number 4 who is Sarah aka that naughty woman I cannot believe it! It has taken all my sense of fairness not to generate another number! The cheek of the woman! Hijack my geese and then win my giveaway!



I guess I've known you a little over a year since you were leaving kind comments on my blog before you took the plunge yourself. Been a lovely journey with you. Here's to loads more stitchy sharing, laughs and parenting advice from one who's wearing the t-shirt ahead of me! Happy Blogiversary and Happy Birthday for tomorrow too!


Congratulations Sarah. This triple zippy pouch will be winging its way to you once the geese arrive at mine!!!!!!!!!

  2. Oops, I guess I'd better behave now that I'm a winner of that amazing triple zippy pouch. Wow wow wow!!! Really, are you sure? I love it and it's so exciting to be a winner, especially when I've been so cheeky and don't deserve it!

    Guess I'm gonna have to send those geese back now then, esp since there's chocolate on the way and you aren't releasing the pouch til I do - smarty! (Do you think I could kidnap all the hipbee blocks just to score extra chocolate? - I could be on to a winner there!)

    Thank you for such a fab giveaway win, my lovely friend!!!
