Happy Fathers Day... and 400

Happy Father's Day to all the Daddies. We've had a lovely Father's Day-Weekend so far. Lunch with Nanny & Poppy yesterday and Bella wanted to stay the night so the boys and I went out for Liam's favourite dinner, Sushi. This morning the boys headed out and picked up supplies for Mummy to make pancakes to go with coffees and babycinos all round.

Earlier in the week I finally spent the last of my birthday money, 3 months later, and bough a Wii and a Wii Fit. Love it. Of course Liam wanted a go this morning so we made him his own little Mii and set him loose on the Ski Salaom. He has the highest score. Embarrasing. But he did have help from Daddy...

As promised on my last post, since this is number 400 (yikes) I've made up a little something for a giveaway. Remember the little needle/embroidery holder that I made here and here, I think I'm going to start calling them a Take-Away Crafter?? Maybe. Anyway, I've made up another one and it's up for grabs. Just leave a comment before midnight on Wednesday 9th September and It might be yours. I will ship internationally. Earn a bonus entry if you can give me a better name!

This little guy has 3 holders, a mushroom, birdie and a button heart, plus some empty embroidery holders for you to add to. If you let me know your fave colours in your comment, the embroidery holders may even come filled :-)

Love the Take-Away Crafter concept! I'm not good with names, but I just have to put my name in to win it. I've been a bit envious of Gilly's. :)

What a great idea? I love the button heart decoration. I'm not good with names either...maybe "Crafters Keyring"? Red and purple are my favourite colours, so am liking the red mushroom too!

cute, cute, cute! What a sweet little giveaway. I was enjoying the last one you posted about, so this is awesome. I'm terrible with name ideas though, so I may have to think about it for a while.

On a side note, I have to say you totally had me confused for a while with the Father's Day thing until I remembered where you are from. :) Some days I feel pretty slow.

I think these are just lovely and a cute concept. What about "Sew 2 Go". Just a thought. Anyway, I would love to win this set. Congratulations on 400.

I never knew you celebrate fathers day at this date there.

Now I am getting in the swing of this craft business and needing something to do at the pool each week while A has her lesson I kinda have my eye on this little giveaway!

I have been thinking and thinking and come up with...

The Sewing Circle

You could add mini or macro or little in there but I quite like it, has a nice ring (ha ha ha) to it!!

Those are adorable, and if I may say so myself, so is your blog! I like many others am not a pro at coming up names, so sorry I was no help there!
