And the winner is......

As promised I am here today to announce the winner of my celebration fun quiz.  It took a while for you girls to raise your numbers to be close to just how many this Scissor Sister's team can cut out in probably no more than 5 hours....the rest was spent drinking coffee and laughing  :-)

We work like clockwork when we get together and can usually know exactly what the other one needs doing next to get the job done.  Quilt covers get spread out on my table and very quickly we decide whether to make lots of little dresses or a few less of rather larger dresses....we aim to make dresses of all sizes so that all girls can have a special dress.  We have plain fabrics and patterned and do our best to team up the colours so that each dress makes the little girls feel special.  We also cut out all our own bias strips from the sheeting because it is softer and nicer to wear than the bought stuff.  We give each one a pocket or two....just because we can plus all little girls like a pocket and you will have seen the latest ones Jo has appliqued on her blog [I think we have made so many dresses now that it makes them more fun for us to make if we use our skills to make them all a bit different].


Right, enough waffling.  I guess what you really came here for is to find out who won.  Well.....

The actual number of cut out dress packs you could see on that table was....

88

So the winner is.....drum roll please......


Well done to you.  Can you please email me your snail mail addy and I will get a little something in the post to you asap.

Thank you to all who joined in the fun.
Hugs to you all,

  2. Yay! the eighties was my decade........ I loved the music (until 1988 funnily enough) and the films. Think I'll go and find me an 80's cd while I clear out the front room disaster. Can't believe that 26 of them are already made up go you two! Thanks so much Annie and congrats on all your followers and many many words and photoies that cheer a girls week :)

  3. Brilliant and congrats to The Crafty Womble! I never did put my guess on but it would have been 92 - I guess that extra cuppa you had made all the difference! Can't believe how well you two ladies are doing with those terrific dresses :) Di xx

  7. Come on now. Come clean and admit it. You have a room full of eleves and pixies crafting away all ours of the day and night cutting and machining these dresses up.!!! Could I borrow a couple of them do you think? I will pay top rates.Hugs Mrs A.
