The Holly Bird Designs and a Giveaway!


I have a love for birds and I think Christmas is the most special time of the year so I've designed a set of six projects that celebrate both my loves!


















The full six pattern set is now available HERE in my shop for the introductory price of $17.95!

That's just $3 a pattern - what a Holly Bird Christmas blessing!

(Be quick because the pattern set price will permanently rise to $21.95 on September 17th)

Now because I've heard a lot of oohing and aahing over some of the fabrics I've used I thought you might like to be part of my Christmas Bundle Giveaway?


I didn't use all these fabrics in the Holly Bird Designs, but I did use some, and the rest will be used for something else I have up my sleeve.
But before I go playing with the rest of my Christmas Scandi fabrics I've cut five 6.5" x 44" lengths for one lucky winner to play with too!


So how do you go in the draw for this sweet Scandi Christmas fabric?

Just share the news about my new Holly Bird Designs on your favourite social media...

At the bottom of this post you'll see buttons for email, Blogger, FB, Twitter, Pinterest and Google+ 
Just click on as many as you can and spread the news for me!

Leave one comment for every social media button you click, and if you get my Friday newsletter delivered to your email inbox (it will be sent out in the next hour) you can even forward that and leave a comment here!

If you purchase the pattern set HERE you can leave 2 extra comments!

PLUS: in your comments tell me which Holly Bird design is your favourite and why. I'd love to know!
I will post internationally so everyone has a chance to win!

 The giveaway will be drawn by Mr E on his birthday, which is September 17th.

GIVEAWAY CLOSED
Mr E chose his birthday number, 17!

The winner is Ellen!


Have a brilliant weekend, and hopefully you may find yourself with a Holly Bird Design or two in your stitching basket.
I am off  to thankfully put my feet up after a very busy week, and I might just stitch something...wheeeee!!

hugs

The blue is definitely my favorite, but the wonderful fussy-cut hexagon tree and songbird run a close second and the table runner a very close third. Hard to choose! I forwarded the e-mail to my group of Christmas Shoebox Swap friends. The fabrics are lovely! Just in case I forget (as I'm prone to doing a lot lately), a happy happy birthday to your sweet husband on the 17th.

Tammy said...

I love the holly bird on the sampler. They are all gorgeous though. I just forwarded my email newsletter to 7 friends. Hope you get some new customers and followers. Love love love the new holly bird Christmas patterns.

Tammy said...

Jenny I just shared your post on my Facebook and tagged you in it dear.

the stitch witch said...

'Tis the season for Christmas lovers to start to make and your festive designs see us spoilt for choice. My favourite is the Rejoice Table Runner as I am fond of patchwork and love the colours of yesteryear. The simplicity of your holly birds adorns it beautifully. Thanks for the opportunity to enter your giveaway. Love the Scandi fabrics.

Beautiful designs from the very talented Jenny of ELEFANTZ ready to stitch for Christmas. My favourite has to be the Noel Pincushion ... love the blues ... not really into "Christmassy things" however the designs are really, really sweet. Fussycutting on the holly birds makes them even more adorable. thank you, Jenny.
