Good morning, my friends!
Welcome to what I hope is a quiet and calm Friday for you!
Today, we’re having a fun give-away on Needle ‘n Thread, and I’ll also tell you about my quiet weekend sale.
A Stitcher’s Christmas – On Pause
Normally, this time of year, I do a whole series of give-aways called “A Stitcher’s Christmas.” But this year, with the studio move and several other major projects going on, I didn’t have the time to coordinate everything.
Still, I’m planning some nice give-aways before Christmas. I’ll have some gorgeous silk ribbon items from Di Van Niekerk a little bit later (she’s having a Black Friday event on her website, which we didn’t want to disrupt). For those who love Reticello and other needle lace, you can look for a kit and book combo coming out as a give-away. Are you a linen lover? Ooooh, have I got something for you! Keep your eye out for that one, too! All in the next month!
Favorite Things Give-Away
Today’s give-away is what I call a Favorite Things give-away. What is it? Well… in a brown paper package tied up with string, the winner will receive some of my favorite things.
Nestled inside the box that will land at your door hopefully in time for Christmas, you’ll find all kinds of goodies! For example:
…and More! A bit of fabric, some threads, and just a great selection of the quality needlework goods that I love to use. We’ll load that little package full of delights for you!
To Enter the Give-Away
If you’d like to join the give-away today, please follow these guidelines:
1. Leave a comment on this article, on Needle ‘n Thread. You can reach the comment form for this article by following this link. Your comment must be left on the website. Comments received via email are not eligible.
2. Please do not use the “reply” feature in the comment area to reply to someone else’s comment. Replies in the comments are not counted in the drawing.
3. Please leave a recognizable name in the “Name” line on your comment. If your name is Mary, for example, you might qualify it with a last initial or a nickname, so that, when the winner is announced, you recognize your name, and other people with the same first name aren’t confused when the winners are announced.
4. Please make certain your email address is entered on the comment form in the “email” line only. Do not include personal information like mailing addresses, phone numbers, or email addresses in the large comment box! Leaving public information on any website is a good way to end up with a lot of spam.

6. In your comment, answer the following:
What’s your favorite holiday tune?
Music is a big part of my family’s Christmas, so this is a hard question for me! I’ve got lots!
7. This give-away ends on Friday, December 2, 2022, at 5:00 am Central Time. The winners will be randomly drawn that morning and announced in the give-away for that day. The winners will also receive a notification via email. If your name is drawn for the give-away, you’ll need to reply to my email within three days (72 hrs). If I don’t hear from you within that time frame, I’ll draw for another name.
The give-away is open to anyone, anywhere. Please understand that any additional fees or import taxes or anything similar are the responsibility of the winner. Needle ‘n Thread is not responsible for lost or damaged packages. Winners should be aware that shipping may be delayed, and that there’s no guaranteed arrival time frame.
When you leave your comment on the website, it may not appear right away. Comments are moderated to avoid spam on the website. This means that I manually approve each comment before it is posted. Never fear! It will show up eventually!
A Rare Weekend Sale
And finally, I’d like to quietly mention that I’ve got a 10% sale going on in my shop, on everything, between now and Monday at midnight.
The discount applies to in-stock items (tangible or e-books).
When you check out, you have to use the code THANKS22 to receive the discount. The discount cannot be applied after your order is placed, so please don’t forget to enter the code in the appropriate box when you check out.
I don’t do sales often, so this is your opportunity to get a discount if you want one!
Have a wondrous weekend!
