Stuffed Stocking Christmas Give-Away!

By 48 Comments

I love Christmas. I love being bundled up, hot beverages, midnight mass at the church I grew up in, getting those glossy postcards and typed annual summaries from far-away friends…. and I LOVE getting to see my mom, dad and sister in San Diego. I think hard about what kind of year they have each had, and what I might make or buy that will brighten their Christmas morning. That moment when they unwrap something I made or picked out for them- and I see them light up a little? Yep, I love that. I love giving presents to the people I love.
This year, I wanted to extend the gift-giving a little. While I’d LOVE to make each of you a gift this year, I fear that’s not in my personal budget. Instead, I’ve made one great big stocking, and stuffed it full of radmegan-made cheer. I will be giving it away to one of you (read on to find out how to be eligible.) 

What’s in this radmegan stocking o’ cheer, you ask?
 
Aside from the hand-made 100% wool felt stocking in white and cornflower blue, and featuring one of my Danish woven hearts sewn on the front as a nifty pocket, the winner of this give-away will also receive… 
One of my Needle-Felted Reindeer ornaments….
 
My 10+foot strand of Needle-felted Christmas Lights! 
A radmegan lucet made of redwood (only one of it’s kind!) AND a ball of Burly Spun, Super Bulky (approx. 38 yards) 100% wool yarn in red. (Just like the kind of yarn I’m including in my new knitting fork Christmas kits, by the way…)
I mean, how can you resist this reindeer face? You need to win this give-away!
All this radmegan-made stuff could be yours!!

  11. I’m a Follower and Christmas is my birthday! I love this time of year and I love all your projects. My mother and I started needle felting not too long ago and she would LOVE all your little ornaments!

  18. Not sure if your giveaway is available to overseas followers (I’m in Australia) but hey, if not, no biggie, am happy just to share the love!!
    So, have worked my way through your list and:
    already follow your blog and subscribe to emails (so big check there!)
    liked you on Facey
    followed you on Twitter (for verification my name there is Narrabrite and my profile pic is a piglet that I hand reared!!)
    I’m pretty sure that I added you to my circle on Etsy – am pretty new to it – but again am Narrabrite
    I tweeted about the competition and tagged you in the tweet so you could see it (https://twitter.com/#!/Narrabrite/status/145699129107021825)!
    I posted a link to this page on Facey (and again tagged you – https://www.facebook.com/allison.michell.davis)
    As for my favourite posts – so many to choose from – but I am still busting to try the cedar plank salmon, I LOVED the string gardens and as for that peppermint bark that you made for your sister, what can I say – ambrosia!!
    Finally for some extra unasked credit, I thought that since I first found you on Pinterest I would go back there – I followed all of your boards, and then pinned a link to this page and tagged you in it (here’s a link http://pinterest.com/pin/111112315776174320/) and then just for fun I also tweeted that one!
    Crikey – I’m beginning to become that kid in class that we all hate, but hey, I love my daily emails from radmegan and anything I can do to help spread the love is a pleasure!
    Good luck everyone!! xx

  27. The last post I tried of yours was one of your recipes. I can’t remember exactly which one – but it was a muffiny/bready something and it was delicious. And I cannot wait to try your stuffed cabbage recipe you shared in the Viennese recipe post. Still haven’t gotten to it.

    Thanks again for doing this giveaway. It is so generous – if I win (knock on wood!) I’d love to gift the package to a very crafty friend of mine who moved to NY last year. I miss her very much. She would love this. <3

  32. I’ve never used a knitting fork. I think I’ve achieved the same effect with fingers, but I bet you get a lot less rope burn with the fork. I’d love to try it!

  39. Eek, so many amazing things! You do beautiful work :) I’ve used your tutorial on danish hearts to make felt tree decorations this year – thanks for the great info. However, I’m really trying very hard not to make the peanut butter cups or peppermint bark – I have a feeling those are gifts I’d be giving to me!

    *fingers crossed*

  45. I also tried the marshmallows and it was a lot of work! I roped my mom into helping me with them and she hated it and vowed to never try making them again. But I’m gonna see if I can get her to try making them with me again this year. :)
