THIS GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED. STAY TUNED FOR MORE IN THE FUTURE BY FOLLOWING THE BLOG, LIKING HENRY GLASS CO. ON FACEBOOK OR FOLLOWING ON TWITTER. THANKS!


We loved the comments here and on Facebook. If you missed it, please check out the details of our giveaway. We continue to try to inspire you to live creatively. 

Before we continue with today's giveaway, we have to announce our winner from our Back To School Giveaway from last week. 

Barb Neiwert is the winner of a bundle of Snow Babies! Congratulations. We'll be contacting you soon!


Today we are featuring Anni Downs' fabric, 12 Days of Christmas in our giveaway. Anni of Hatched and Patched has designed a folksy holiday line complete with a panel that illustrates a countdown to Christmas. We love the pretty green and blue colors that she chose for the prints. She has designed some simply adorable free projects to accompany the line.

Good luck!

I love making little pillows to give to friends. I just ordered some balsam and will be making lots of pillows and small ornies, then stuff them with the balsam. That way my friends can enjoy the smell of Maine pine in their homes.

Every year I try to make a few Christmas stockings. Our local quilt guild donates them to a teen crisis center. We fill them with goodies we purchase from donations. Ani's fabrics are adorable!

Vicki H said...

I like making kitchen accessories like table runners, placemats, mug rugs, coasters, trivets and decorative towels. I like giving items my friends and family will use.

I like making items for the kitchen for adults. Men usually will get aprons since they tend to need those for grilling. But for children, depending on their age, it might be a blanket, quilt, or a toy.

NOTE/HELP?: I am answering here on the blog as well as Facebook. The rules aren't clear as it says for those who don't have Facebook they can answer on the blog. But you then said one winner will be from Facebook and four others here from blog comments. Are we allowed to answer both places or one or the other? If only one place, I have posted to both today so one will not be a valid entry for me so I thought I'd ask for some clarification. Thank you.

Cherry stone heating pads get the biggest response--our 7 year old nephew adores his and goes to bed with it every night. Naturally, he'll be getting a new one this year in fabric reflecting his "maturing" tastes.

I have to say that I start making quilts for each of the grandchildren and now great grandchildren.

Thanks for asking.

I just came from Anni's site! She has so many wonderful creations. I like to make bags of different sizes and fill them with goodies that each recipient will enjoy.
