Dec Giveaway Day - Dec 2, 2009

UPDATE: THE GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED

Giveaway Day is here! SewMamaSew is once again coordinating an international blogging giveaway day. Earlier this year in May, hundreds of bloggers participated in this fabulous event. Readers get a chance to check out great "new to them" blogs and take a chance at winning some fabulous prizes. The bloggers get to have fun hosting a giveaway and are given the chance to be introduced to some new readers/followers.

That's all great, you're saying..So what can I win?? Well dear readers, old and new.. MoonCat Farms will be giving away 2 note cards from our shop - MoonCat Farms Marketplace. The winner will be given the choice of any two cards.

To enter, you just need to go to the shop here and then come back and let us know which two cards you would choose if you're our lucky winner. (You can always change your mind later.)

The contest will be open until midnight PST on December 6th. We will use the Random Generator to choose the lucky winner. Once we post the name, they will have 3 days to contact us with their shipping info or we will draw a new winner. We will ship internationally so all are welcome to enter.

Just be sure that we can contact you either through your blog or by leaving your email address in your contact info (if you leave it in the following format, you'll eliminate the risk of the spambots getting your email address): janedoe (at) yahoo (dot) com

Here's just a few of our recent additions to the shop that you might choose:

Good luck to everyone and thank you so much for coming by to see our little corner of the world. We hope you'll become a regular and keep up with the Meanderings of MoonCat Farms..

MoonCat Farms Marketplace

MoonCat Farms Marketplace finally has something in it! I got off my rear and found some time to list some of the note cards that I've made from some of my photographs. The three shown above are the first up. I will be adding more over the next few days. All of them are also available as prints. My Etsy shop also has a couple of the flower pincushion/sachets that I made.
I would love to hear what you think!

Sewn Giveaway & MoonCat Farms Marketplace Grand Opening

SEWN

I am participating in another giveaway by bloggers. This is such a fun way to get to know others from around the world. I made some very nice new friends from the first giveaway I participated in and was excited to be told about this one!

This event has been coordinated around the launch of an exciting new website for sewers called Sewn http://www.sewn.net.au/ . It will be making its debut in June, but the creators have decided to have a Blog Launch Party to get the momentum rolling. Many different bloggers are participating and giving away some great prizes in a drawing on their site. Anyone can enter or be involved. The drawings will take place on June 8th. What a fun way to launch this much-needed website for the sewing community. Please be sure to check them all out and sign up for the launch of Sewn!

To enter my drawing, just leave a comment at the end of this post. If you are an email subscriber or follower, you get a 2nd entry into the drawing! I will draw the winner on June 8th and post the name here. Please be sure that I have a way of contacting you if you are my lucky winner!

Now, what the heck am I giving away?? I will be giving away one of my original Spring Flower Pincushion/Sachets. This little beauty can be used as a practical & pretty pincushion or to scent a closet or drawers with the lovely lavender. It is made using 100% cotton material and is stuffed with ec0-friendly fiberfill and organically grown lavender from right here on our place. I really enjoy making these as they are a bright, happy addition to anyone's sewing box and they smell heavenly! (I do make them unscented as well for those who can't tolerate scents.) This little flower is in shades of purple and lavender.

This whole diatribe leads into my next announcement as these little pincushions are one of my first creations to be offered in my new Etsy shop!

I am so happy to finally be able to announce a date for the Grand Opening of my new online Etsy shop. I have been working on all of the tiny little details and getting some of my items photographed so that I can get it launched. So, on June 15th, my new shop: MoonCat Farms Marketplace will officially be open for business! Yeah, finally!! It has taken some time, but I am hoping it will be worth it. We are starting small, but will be expanding on a regular basis as new creations take shape.

I am planning on another drawing or giveaway to celebrate this great step forward for MoonCat Farms and our new Marketplace.
