I won!

One of the best things about joining this wonderful crafting community is finding out about giveaways. A year ago I had no idea that people ran giveaways. Big competitions yes, but I always figured they weren't worth entering because I had so little chance of winning with all the hundreds of people who entered. Handmade giveaways, however, are totally amazing.

This amazing parcel of goodies arrived through my letterbox on Friday. I was so excited to open it!

Here is Mr Lilypad chicken. He's why I entered. Isn't he wonderful! He's going to join the cow, ladybird and snowman that sit on the windowsill in my craft room.

I must say a massive thank you to Lynsey from Swirlyarts for running the giveaway and picking me as the winner. Thank you Thank you Thank you. If you'd like to get yourself your very own chicken, head over to the Swirlyarts Folksy shop or take a look at Lynsey's blog.
