One World-One Heart



Photo

I'll add my giveaway to the rest. This is called a "Magic Hankie Bonnet." First I make a hankie, then with a few stitches and ribbon, I transform it into a bonnet. The baby wears the bonnet for christening, dedication, etc., then you take out the ribbons and stitching, wash and put away. When Baby grows up, it becomes the "something old" she carries on her wedding day. If you have a boy, I can supply one that is more tailored with blue trim. I also have some with pink lace if you like that better. Just state your preference in your comments. Be sure to have a valid URL (I've noticed some of the links aren't valid) or e-mail address. Deadline is February 11. Good luck!

Update-I will close comments at 9:00 A. M. Mountain Standard time on February 12. Be sure to have your entry in by then.

Also, because there were so many entries, I have decided that I will draw three names and give away three of the bonnets. Better chances to win!!

Some entries don't have valid URLs or e-mail addresses, so watch my blog for the winners. If I can't contact you in 5 days, I will redraw. How will I draw? I think I will try the newfangled Random Number Generator thingie.

Thanks, friends!

Update-we have winners! See my latest post to see who won.
