I think this year I'll celebrate the Big Day (the 20th of this month) by having a Giveaway on my blog. This will be my first attempt at such, so I'll have to make my own rules.
Hmmm. Let's say that everyone who wants a chance to win my Hazel the Witch pin doll (or ornie) pattern will leave a comment here. I'll pull three names from all the comments to this post (one comment per person, please), contact the winners for their mailing addresses (please make sure I can find your name or email or blog or something), and send you a Hazel pattern.
The 20th is on Friday, and since I have to work that day (and the next), the drawing will be held at 9 p.m. Pacific Time. That way my old bones can get to bed early.
Hazel is one of my very first patterns. For those that make little dolls, you'll know it takes nearly as long to make one of these as it does a big doll. Have fun with that.

Very few comment on Witch Hazel ?
My birthday is also on the 20 th.
But not Feb. but April.
Maybe I should design a doll Hazel nut ? ?
Happy Happy Birthday! May the day be bright & warm & full of good cheer.
