FIRST ANNIVERSARY GIVEAWAY!

It has already been one year since I began blogging and to celebrate this, I am having a....GIVEAWAY!

This is what one of you will win....



2 Quilt blocks

A vintage square tablecloth

A white heart shaped cushion cover and a little Laura Ashley bag

Vintage fat quaters, a Welsh Love spoon and a note book

Embroidery

To enter this giveaway, all you have to do is leave a comment on this post, that's all!
One entry per individual to keep it fair for everyone taking part please. Thank you.

Anyone can enter the giveaway, you don't have to have a blog.

I will post worldwide.

I have REALLY enjoyed blogging, I have got so much more out of it than I ever expected. I have discovered so many lovely and inspiring blogs, have made friends with some lovely fellow bloggers and been in touch with some whom I have not met yet.
I had not expected it to be such a friendly community. It had not occured to me that it would be like that when I first started out. So... a BIG THANK YOU for following my blog, sending me emails, leaving comments and last but not least....for your friendship ;-)

ENTRIES WILL BE VALID UNTIL WEDNESDAY 3rd MARCH 2010 - 23.59 GMT.
THE DRAW WILL TAKE PLACE ON THE MORNING OF THURSDAY 4th MARCH 2010.

ATTIC UPDATE: The loss adjuster has had a look at it today and guess what..? It's not covered.... A roofer is coming to have a look at it on Monday, we'll be told more about the extent of it then.

A bientôt!

    Si j'ai bien compris (et oui, vu que je ne pratique pas régulièrement la langue de Shakespeare, j'ai des lacunes parfois ... LOL) un couvreur doit passer voir le toit de votre maison ?..

    Good morning. I know how you are feeling. I have rain in my attic which actually went down to the third floor. Such fun. While the rest of the country is getting snow, it is funny that up here in Maine, where you would expect snow, we had 8 inches of pounding rain. Oh well that is why I make a pot of tea, go to my blogs I visit, and sit back and relax. I agree, the blogging community is such a happy place to go to. Please sign me up for your lovely give away. Thank you.

    Isabelle, I love your blog so much! I miss England, the land of my birth, every day, and your blog and its lovely pictures allow me a glipse at my homeland's beauty. Thank you for sharing all of your lovely vintage finds as well- they are the prettiest!

    Happy Anniversary, and good luck with your roof!

    Hi Isabelle, what a lovely giveaway. I love reading your blog and I know I should comment more often. Hope the roof situation is sorted promptly. We are having very heavy rain everyday in Sussex but today the sun appeared and you could smell spring in the air. Karenx

    Hi Isabelle.

    Sorry to hear that the insurance company dont want to play ball. What a pain for you, we had the same with a toilet that leaked - we had taken out extra water damage cover and they still would not pay out!!!

    I would love to be entered into the draw for the lovley goodies.

    Happy One Year. I'm quite new to blogging & it's such a great community.

    Your attic looks like mine did down south - I'm now on the Isle of Skye where we have to hang on to our roof tiles! It has been the brightest least wet winter here since 10 years :)

    Congratulations on your first anniversary.
    I only discovered "blogs" several months ago - and what a treasure trove they have proved.
    As a result I have (re)learned to crochet, dug out my 1970's Laura Ashley material and started to look at "vintage" with a completely new eye.
    Thank you to you and all the other lovely bloggers for sharing (I'm not brave enough to start my own blog though!)

    I don't enter that many give aways (for some crazy reason??) but I do love your blog much. One thing I get from your blog is a sense of homeliness, comfort and joy. You share with us some of your home and world and it's always such a pleasure to read.
    I am definitely loving what you have on offer in this give away...the pieces are completely gorgeous and I'm and my favourite is the rosie purse.
    Love,

    Shame about the attic not being covered on the insurance - know how you must be feeling - am waiting for gas engineer to come to mend boiler as I type and I doubt that will be covered on my gas
