Lady Adventure

One World, One Heart - Giveaway

Lisa from A Whimsical Bohemian takes on a gargantuan task every year - this year for the fifth year in a row. She organises the One World, One Heart campaign, which is basically a compilation of participants that want to invite people over to their blog for a little look around ... and offer them the chance to win a "door prize" if they leave a message. Emily at The Nest did it last year and she's got a cute but cheeky-faced little doll as her door prize this year, so I thought I'd join in.

Because spring is coming and pregnant women are everyone (before you ask: I'm not. No baby cookies in the Gingerbread family), I decided to make a Kitties-in-a-Row baby blanket. Like this:



So if you know someone who'll be experiencing the Mirkel of Birt sometime soon, this might be a nice little pressie for her (and him, indirectly.) But I'm going to make this one ... in a mystery colour combination. What do you think? How about ...

Girly pinks

Lollipop colours

Lilacs

Blues

This blanket will measure approximated 65 x 80 cm and it will be made of baby-friendly, fling-in-the-washing-machine acrylic (those of you traumatised by tales of scratchy American acrylic can rest assured that this German stuff is very nice and soft). Ours is a smoke and pet-free home and my hands are always sparkly clean. February 17th is the closing date and you will be informed within 3 days of this date if you have won.

So if you are new to this blog, do have a little poke around. I'm The Gingerbread Lady, by the way, and I'm an Irishwoman living in Germany with my German husband. I educate The Youth of Bavaria to varying levels of success. When not pounding my protegées with the vagaries of English grammar, I do all kinds of crafty stuff - mostly involving yarn - and blog on a regular basis about my nearest and dearest, who are now afraid to tell me anything for fear it will end up in cyberspace - bwoahahahhaaa! (= evil laugh)

So do leave a comment and feel free to make your favourite colour combination known :-) Just remember to be contactable through your own blog (which I will visit. Yesirree. I'll swing by to have a look atcha) so I can contact you if you win. Hurray!

P.s. Oh my goodness. I've just spent an evening reading - literally - 34 different blogs (yes, I'm coming to see you if you leave a comment - and I have so many more to see ) and my mind is boggling at the collective creativity. But how am I going to get my crocheting done???
