Aux armes, citoyens !
Formez vos bataillons !
Marchons ! Marchons !
Qu’un sang impur
Abreuve nos sillons !
Anyway… So I wrote all the names from the comments on little pieces of paper and had the Evil Overlord draw one this evening after yoga class…
And the winner is….
Cheri!
and since I know Cheri will be concerned about the fact that she’s my web designer and one of my dance students… and OK, for full disclosure, my college roommate and heart-sister, too, when the EO started laughing about the name he drew, I had him draw another one for a second present…
and that winner is…
Angie B!
Angie, if you could email me your address I’ll ship out your new secret stash ASAP! It’s only secret until you tell us about it!

Well, sort of. I mean, I’m announcing it on the first, and skipping the 4th, and drawing a name on the 13th. LOL But it encompasses Independence Day, so that’s what it is. 
I can do that. It’s my stash.
So what am I giving away? I’m celebrating the Grand Opening of Golden Circle Designs (read Monday’s blog post if you missed the Discount code…) And I’m still working on a plan for this whole thing.
Stash Giveaway!
The Stash
- 1 hand beaded, black and crystal chatelaine with 2 fobs.
- 2 9″X13″ pieces of Silkweaver hand-dyed evenweave fabric – perfect for ornaments.
- Assorted threads.
Edited: Picture added!!! I took a new one, even though I found the archived ones. That one was just of the chatelaine. Click the photo for a clearer shot!
Rules
Post a comment on this blog entry by July 12. I’ll randomize entries and have the EO draw a name on the 13th and will post and email winners by Tuesday, the 14th just to keep the Independence day theme by ending on Bastille Day?

But first I’m going to explain how I came to the answer, because given the comments and number of them, there may be some questions.
This afternoon I pulled up the post and l copied all 25 comments into a word document, turning them into 2 column layout and then cutting the comment out. I then removed the comments from me. *grin*\
I then removed the three extra posts from Michelle (who had inadvertently mistyped her url). Then I had my godson, who is 2 weeks away from being 12, draw the name out of my hat. And draw it out he did. He wouldn’t give me the slip of paper.
He started spelling…
M…
I…
C…
Yup. Michelle, you didn’t get any extra tries for the extra comments, but you still won the book! For those of you who didn’t win, and still want a copy…
Here’s the link to the Amazon. It really is an amazing book. When I was reviewing it so I could post the giveaway I kept finding reasons I should keep it. . . I could do this with this pattern… or that with the other one. But I knew I’d never get around to it!
So Michelle, email me your address and I’ll get it shipped out to you.

It’s been quite a week here, at maison de shimmy. So no full sized post. I’m going to go make a cup of tea and take a long bath.
But a reminder for you before I go… If you’re interested in Arts and Crafts needlework, or cross stitch, and would like to combine them, don’t forget to sign up for the giveaway. You’ve got until Monday before i draw the name. Actually, you’ve got until Monday at noon my time, because that’s when I’ll print out the comments and cut them up for my nephew to draw one of. I’ll post the winner on Tuesday.
