TdF Random Prize Pick

The Tour de Fleece has ended! Yay for Team Bee Mice Elf :D
It was so wonderful to see everyone's gorgeous yarns. You all are so talented and should be proud of yourselves! As promised there will be 2 prizes awarded among Team BME members. First is the random draw prize which is a free 4 oz braid of your choice from my shop, either in stock or custom dyed.

Now I know there is probably some more high tech way of doing a random drawing but I just simply put all team member's name in a bowl and let my kid choose one. So here we go! I had all the ravelry names of anyone who posted a picture of any yarn or work in progress in either the "official" BME team thread or the tdf thread within the BME group.

Here's the list: ishirlz, aquaknits, Panthyr, owenj, LushMommy, xanandali, shellebelle216, doglover, epspins, wannabe, ChanaMaja, ilikecake, mommyknits, Bee, vortenjou, and lilreb673.

Lily shaking it up!
No peeking!
Revealing the name :D
And the winner is....

ChanaMaja! Congrats!!
Thank you to everyone who participated! I hope you had fun :D
The next prize is for Team Favorite where we all will vote. I'm going to start a thread over at ravelry within our group which will explain how that one will work. See you there!

Felt Yummies

Remember that felt food I use to carry at my etsy shop?

It's available again! Thanks to my super talented sister, Lisa :D





Check out her newly opened etsy shop, Feltalicious.

I showed her all my felting secrets and she took to the craft immediately! While on her visit here to California this summer, we stayed up late at night felting away in our parent's kitchen. I think the most important part of making the felt food is putting lots of love into their creation. Lisa definitely does that and I think it shows! She's in the process of creating new items, she's already listed her new concha pan dulces, yum. :)
