A little Irish Blessing pillow for the "season".
My daughter's birthday is March 16th and so she considers St. Patrick's Day her holiday.
She's 50% East Indian....
no true Irish blood in her....
so I have a laugh about that each year,
still... I make her these "decorations".
I don't think I will make this pattern again, it's a quick pattern but once is enough.
So, I decided to give it away.
Here is the pattern photo....
Heart Felt Finds is the designer plus the link to the original pattern in case you'd like to buy it.
It's only $3 and frankly,
I am tempted to buy a few more of their designs.
Back to the giveaway....
if you'd like to win my copy,
Leave me a comment on this post and I will choose a winner on February 24th.
That way you still have time to stitch it up before St. Patty's Day.
How sweet - I love Irish things too. My name is Colleen so everyone thinks I am Irish but I am Scandinavian! lol Love the story about your daugthers "holiday" thanks!
ReplyDeleteCount me in. That's a cute little cushion!
ReplyDeleteYour daughter is just too cute Vickie!
ReplyDeleteMy son's birthday is March 16, too! He was four hours too early to be a St. Patrick's baby. Happy (early) birthday to your daughter!
ReplyDeleteOh what a sweet pillow. I'd love to win this :) thanks for the chance sweetie!
ReplyDeleteWhat a comforting saying!
ReplyDeleteI'd sure love to win a copy of the pattern! Great combination of different techniques in a small project. The ricrac gives it a very different look.
Such a unique little pillow...I would love to win your pattern..thank you
ReplyDeleteOh how awesome! my family is very irish, in fact my maiden name is ireland. My ancestors came to america in the late 1800's. Id love to have that pattern!
ReplyDeleteHow cute is this, I never decorate for any holidays really and always think I would like some fabulous handmade goodeis to help with this. I am thinking a pillow like this is the perfect way to get started!! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteWe don't celebrate St Patrick's day in Portugal but if I win I'm going to start my own celebration.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday and Happy St. Patrick's Day to your Daughter!
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you for the chance to win a cute pattern!
How adorable! Happy Birthday to your daughter and thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteI'm Irish, my birthday is a few days away from St. Patty's Day, so I consider it my holiday too! :) I love the pillow.
ReplyDeleteThat's so cute. I would love to win this pattern.
ReplyDeleteI would love to win this pattern. Like your daughter, my grandson thinks everything St Patrick's Day is because he was born on March 17. Just love our little leprechaun. He is half Irish
ReplyDeleteHi Vickie! What a great pattern!
ReplyDeleteMy son's birthday is Mar 18, and I never thought about making it his day!
Thanks for the giveaway!
Take care, Leslie
Being of Irish descent, tell your daughter we welcome one and all! She has the right idea. When we were kids, dad always used to tease us that if we didn't wear green on St. Patty's day the birds would s_it on us. I never dared wear anything but green ;-) Love the pillow, thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteCute pattern. My son's birthday is on St. Patrick's day.
ReplyDeleteCute pattern, I'm part Irish! Thanks for a chance in your giveaway!
ReplyDeleteTwo of my sons have red hair and Irish names!
ReplyDeleteCount me in please!
This would be perfect to add to my daughters pillow collection! She is five and can't get enough pillows. Thank you so much for the chance to win!
ReplyDeletegreat work... beautiful
ReplyDeleteOh I love it! I get my Irish from my Mom (whose b-day is also the 16th!) I would love to stitch this for her!! Thanks for the chance! have a happy day!
ReplyDeleteI am Irish on my mother's side. Half Irish-Half Dutch. I'd love to win your pattern.
ReplyDeleteHow generous of you, thanks sew much!
ReplyDeleteMy daughter actually is half Irish and her birthday is March 6th so this would be a great win! Thanks for generously having this giveaway.

Although my family is not Irish, my name, Kathleen, was very popular around the time I was born. People always assume that I am Irish. My husband is half Irish and my daughter Patricia has red hair, so there is no denying her heritage. I always do something special for her on St. Patrick's day even though her patron saint (it's a Catholic thing) is St. Patricia of Naples.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to win this pattern!
ReplyDeleteThat's adorable!!!
