My girlfriend and I have been scouring thrift stores for sweaters to make the thrift stores and have resigned ourselves to the fact that living in the south means we won't find neat wool sweaters!
Thanks for the fun giveaway!!
What a wonderful way to start off a Monday. You are truly talented and industrious. Love The warewolf!
Of course i'd love to win ... who wouldn't want a dose of warm and fuzzy of their very own.
These are so cute! Please enter me in your draw. Happy Monday.~Susan
Hi,
I would treasure these beautiful cupcakes. Eye candy. Thanks for the chance to win. Janey Joop :^)
Too cute! I'm in the process of making Christmas stockings...
I love your inspiring blog. You've got me looking for wool sweaters whenever I'm at thrift stores and yard sales. I'm looking forward to your home decor book. I have a business making slipcovers, pillows, etc. and would love some ideas for using my collected sweaters around my house.
Katie
I know comment 113 has no chance in hades of winning, but how could I pass up even the slightest chance? I LOVE these cupcakes, and I know flattery doesn't influence the decision but I will still tell you I think you're brilliant!
These are so adorable and I have been coveting them for quite some time! I went to the thrift shop last week and I was so disappointed at the lack of wool. I guess its because I live in a state where people actually wear wool garments :S
I would love to win!
I love coming to your blog to see your ideas. Would love to win a cupcake!
jandm@cot.net

Love your blog you make the sweetest stuff.

What a fun giveaway!
Hi,
I went hiking this past weekend with my sister and some of the nurses she works with. We climbed a mountain, the scenery with breath-taking, and finished the day with good food and good company.
One of the nurses is an avid quilter and crafter. Linda showed me the cupcake pincushions and felted Christmas stockings she was working on. I feel in love with her projects and just had to know all about them. You see I am a Family and Consumer Science teacher from Long Island who also loves to quilt, craft, knit, etc.
Linda gave me your website and here I am. I have already order your book, "Warm Fuzzies", raided my sister's closet for old wool sweaters (my Mom's too), and took apart two ot those on the ferry ride home last night. I am ready to wash them tonight and can't wait for the UPS truck to arrive.
I teach in a brand new middle school that happens to be the first green school in all of the state of New York. Your philosophy of recycling fits right in with my classroom and my own personal beliefs. I am already looking forward to your next book before I even get into this one.
I am always looking for inexpensive decorations as our budget is tight. If you can send me ideas I would appreciate it. Also, you have many dates and blogs on your site that I am looking forward to surfing through, however if you know of any particular projects that would be attractive to middle school students (6th - 8th grade) I would love your suggestions.
Thank you,
Barbara Bickford
bbickford3@yahoo.com
Ohh what a perfect little giveaway! I would love to win! I have always loved your pin cushions!
Yay! I hope I win. Regardless, Your Warm Fuzzies book is on my Christmas list this year...hopefully Santa will put it under the tree for me

What a great giveaway. I am a new reader to your blog and I just love the cute cupcake pincushions. I wonder how hard it would be to find old wool sweaters down here in the south? Anyway, keep up the great work - I get lots of cute ideas from your blog.
tricia@triciagriffin.com
I just love your little cupcakes. They are so soft and scrumptious looking! Please enter my name in the drwaing. Should I be so lucky as to win, just know I'll be away for the weekend hosting a retreat for my quilting friends. I'll be back Sunday night to check and see who the lucky winner is. :-)
Ever since I saw you on Martha I have been in love! I would love an original!! :)
Oh I just love giveaways. The measuring tape is so fun. Cupcakes are so much fun!
Thanks for the felty inspirations!!
Your blog is such an inspiration! I've done the plastic bag fusing for our Preschool parade entry (we won!) and I'm ready to try some felting now. I hope I win your cupcake, so I can stop eating so many real ones!
These cupcakes are just so gosh darn cute! Pick me, pick me!Fingers crossed!
