Sew Mama Sew December Giveaway

Thanks to everyone who participated in my giveaway, it's been such fun reading all the comments! I'm off to generate the winning number and will be posting it above shortly.

Welcome to my giveaway for the Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Day! Up for grabs is this cute little bag made from dark grey wool and lots of felt spots.

Spotty bag 1

It measures approx. 19 x 10.5cm (about 7.5 x 4") and is lined with pink cotton. The spots are wool-blend felt and and the buttons are from my button box.

Spotty bag 2

I had an awful time trying to photograph it so that the colours were true, the camera couldn't handle the intense orange and pink of some of the spots! I've desaturated the photos a little so you can see the details, in real life it's a bit more fun and vibrant.

What do you need to do to win this wee bag? Well I'm going to make you really work for it - in your comment I want you to tell me where you're from in the big wide world. That's it. :) I'm happy to ship worldwide too (because let's face it, pretty much everywhere is overseas from New Zealand!)

The giveaway will be open until 2pm, December 7th NZ time which works out to 8pm December 6th EST. The winner will be chosen by random number generator. Please make sure that you've either left your blog URL or an email - if you have your Blogger profile set up to be private I have no way of contacting you other than to post your name here, and I'll redraw in 24 hours if I haven't heard from you. The bag will be mailed immediately but I'm not sure it will make North America or Europe by Christmas, so might end up being a nice little post-Christmas pressie.

Spotty bag 3

I should add that I got the bag pattern from this great tutorial and I love the way the zipper is put in, it makes it look really professional.

ETA: I just have to add that it's already killing me not to reply to some of the comments but I know if I do it'll screw up figuring out what post belongs to the winning number. I'm being strong, but it's going to be a long few days (and the official part hasn't even started yet!).

    very cute bag and love the colors and design... I am from Waterville, Maine USA. Considered to be the Central Maine area, I am a little over 3 hours to the Quebec Canada border (although the big city of Quebec is about 6 hrs away!) In contrast Boston Massachusetts is about 3 hours away to my south and New York City about 7 or 8 hours away. My dad was from Canada, my hubby is from Guatemala in Central America so my kids have French Canadian and Guatemalan heritage-it does make for some interesting holidays! Wishing you a wonderful holiday season!

    I"m from St. John's Newfoundland and Labrador. Way out east! I'm a phd student who is looking at your blog after reaching her word quota for the day on the long saga of a dissertation - its going to be a long long winter!
    MY NZ connection is that after my grandmother died my grandfather decided to meet his penpal from NZ he'd been writing to since he was 11 (so over 60 years). They met in their 70s and got married! She moved here to a tiny outport in Bonavista Bay (Princeton) and lived happily for a few years. As a kid, I always thought it was the weather that killed her, but I've been assured it wasn't.
    This bag would be so cheery on my dull desk while i'm writing, I hope you consider me!
