Welcome to Stitcher’s Christmas #2 for 2021!

Today’s give-away will go to three randomly drawn names, and I’ll tell you all about it below.

First, though, I’ll announce the winners of Wednesday’s silk ribbon packages from Di van Niekerk.

Read on, read on!

This morning, I drew two random names, in order, as the winners of Wednesday’s give-away. I do this using a random number generator and then matching the generated numbers with the comment numbers. It’s pretty straightforward!

So, without further ado, Mary Kinsey will receive the three beautiful ribbon packages from Di, and CASimberg will receive a ribbon collection and the “dreamscapes” collections of ready-to-stitch pre-printed scenes.

Yay! Mary and Cas, I will email you both. Please keep an eye out for my email and respond to it as soon as you can. If I don’t hear from you within three days (72 hours), I’ll draw another winner for your category.

Thank you, Di, for joining me in this year’s Stitcher’s Christmas and for the beautiful gifts!

If you all are ever looking for ribbon embroidery instructions, supplies, and projects, don’t forget to visit Di’s website! You can also follow her on Facebook and Instagram.

And now, on to today’s give-away…

Each of the three winners of today’s give-away can pick three different designs from any of the collections of my ready-to-stitch towels, and I’ll prepare a kit of ready-to-stitch towels with the designs you want. I’ll send them to you, along with 8 skeins of DMC thread colors that will work with at least one (or more) of the designs you selected. I’ll also include a printed diagram pointing out the stitches I used when I embroidered the designs you selected.

It’s a simple give-away that gives you an opportunity to try out the ready-to-stitch towels in designs you want, with a little guidance on stitches and colors.

You can pick from any of the design sets that I offer. You’ll find them listed here under Embroidery Kits in my shop.

Maybe you’d like a set that includes a flowery spring towel…

… along with a festive fall scene…

…and some Christmas Cheer thrown into the mix?

And there are many, many more, including some folky stamped cross stitch towels, more spring options, and more fall and winter options.

Whichever three designs you want, they’re yours! And some thread to boot.
