First, Gabe has the winner for the Couponing in Critical times giveaway-check out her blog to see who won!



For the Sew mama Sew giveaway, the winner is Amy, who said "Too cute--my toddler would love this! My favorite tradition is St. Nicholas Day on December 6th. The night before (so, tonight!) we leave our shoes out by the door, and St. Nick fills them with goodies. Yay!"

Sew Mama Sew giveaway!

This is a giveaway from the Sew Mama Sew blog for this boy waldorf doll!
This doll is made with jersey cotton, and stuffed with cleaned and carded wool. His face is hand sewn. His hair is a crocheted wig, with each piece of hair individually sewn in. I use several kinds of hair so that it looks more natural. He has on linen overalls. If you'd like to order a custom doll to your specifications, use this form and email it to aksprinkle@gmail.com. Thanks for looking!

To enter, please leave a comment under this post about your favorite holiday tradition. The ending date is Dec. 6. Good luck!

Good luck with the giveaway!

Smocked Dresses, Heirlooms, etc.

This is a bit more intensive, and requires a meeting at Gina's, generally. But, no one else does them that I've found! If you need a handmade heirloom or smocked dress for a special occasion, I am available to do a limited number. A basic bishop with angel sleeves like this one, and a smocked bishop top will start at $60 and go up based on size and detail. I can bring the insertion lace ones I've done, and will try to get a picture up soon.

Tutu Tees

My two year old loves these shirts. This is a birthday gift for a friend, but the idea could be extended to any color shirt, any applique (this one was purchased to match something else, but I can make any applique), and any color tulle that your little one would like. They're $20, and a monogram or name can be added for $12 additional. (I don't have a machine, but can take it to get it done!).
