Diamond Jubilee Giveaway!!!!

 

In celebration of our Queen's Diamond Jubilee this year, I am having a little giveaway of one of these lovely celebratory tea towels together with a patriotic red, white and blue cathedral window pincushion that I have made especially for the giveaway.




And as if the Diamond Jubilee were not enough reason for a giveaway,  I am currently on 199 followers and hopefully will be able to celebrate having 200 lovely followers very soon!


 

 
To enter my Jubilee Giveaway, please become a follower if you are not already,
then simply leave a comment on this post saying which of these lovely tea towels,
specially made by Ulster Weavers to celebrate the Jubilee,
you would like to win if your name is picked.

You can have a second chance to win if you share this on your blog - please copy the button (first photo) announcing the Giveaway and link back to my blog post. Don't forget to leave a comment to say you have done so or I won't know to put your name in twice.


The Giveaway ends on Sunday 27th May 2012,
and is open to all followers, wherever you live.

Please make sure an email address is available (linked to your name) so that I can contact you if you are the winner!!!


The Red Roses Tea Towel

 

 

 
The first tea towel is a beautiful elegant one in shades of cream and caramel, with a beautiful silhouette of the Queen surrounded by deep red roses and gold flowers and foliage.
There is a pretty deep red traditional pattern all round the edge, and the dates and a commemoration.


The Union Jack Bunting Tea Towel

 

 

 
The second tea towel has a lovely pale blue and white background with Union Jack bunting at the top and bottom, the number 60 in Union Jack style, and an ornate design in deep pink with a crown on top.
There are pretty bunches of roses, and the whole tea towel has a vintage feel to it!

 

 

Good Luck!!!

Edited to add:
Yayyy!!!!! 
Made it to 200 followers today!!!


Thank you my 200th Follower!

  7. Hello Gill:
    What excitement, a Diamond Jubilee and two hundred followers [we are certain that elusive final one will appear before long!!]

    The union jack bunting tea towel would be our choice since, if we were lucky enough to win, we should give it to our housekeeper, Timea, who is a fan of all things Queen and England related.

  34. I'm not sure if you are sending to the U.S. but on the chance that you might I would love the towel with the bunting on it. They're both so pretty and how nice are you to have such a giveaway. You don't have to include me as I'm sure shipping would be high to the U.S. I am a follower though and came to you through Helen Phillips who I adore!

  43. Hello Gill, I have to confess that it is the first time that I have subscribed to become a follower. But your tea towels are so pretty that I thought I had to try winning one. Both beautiful, but as I have to give my preference, I'll choose the red rose tea towel. We're having a street party in my street, which happens to be Downing Street too, but in Wiltshire. Busy trying to finish sewing the buntings. Blogs like yours really inspire me. So I can just say a huge thank you for finding the time to share your ideas with us all.

  44. Ciao Gill, sono contenta di conoscerti, partecipo al giveaway, ma anche se non vinco non importa, ho comunque un'amica in più!!

  45. Just joined your lovely site. I'd love the roses tea towel if I'm lucky enough to win xx

  46. Hi Gill! I just bought a TShirt to wear on Friday, at work. It says: "The only way is British" because I am not British, so I thought it would be funny. As you know, Gill, I love this beautiful Land, as it has been my home for a long time!

    I love the Tea towel with the Union Jacks and, most of all, I adore the pin cushion.

    If I won, I would give the tea towel to my sister Nunzia, who loves the Union Jack, and flags, in general, and the lovely pin cushion would go to my other sister Nietta, who is very talented, like you. She, too, makes wonderful furnishings!I wish I could!

    So... your lovely giveaways would travel all the way to sunny Italy!

    CIAO, CIAO!
