A Giveaway!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

isn't he cute??

his name is Twitch...

and he needs a good home!!!!
Twitch is made from 3 different types of German Mohair...
on his tail, back & belly.
he has little tufted ears and wire hands to hold his prized acorn
(made from wool and muslin)
he loves to sit upon his pincushion and help you stitch,
although he has a tendancy to steal your pins
(he likes shiny-things)...
So, if you can find room in your little sewing corner,
and wouldn't mind sharing your pins and needles,
Twitch would love to come live with you!
to be eligible to adopt him, all you have to do is leave me a comment here on this post~
in one week (7/21) I'll pick the lucky folk's name from my hat !!!!
Best of luck Twitch!
Best of luck Folks!!!!
*Blessed be*
Lori
p.s. please keep my mom and family in your thoughts, my stepfather has been hospitalized
with internal bleeding: he is on cumadin (sp?), has prostate cancer and the dr's think he may have leukemia~he just turned 80.
he's a retired police officer and very active in the Masonic Lodge.
I love you Poppy, get better soon!

COULD BE JUST TOO MUCH COUMADIN- SOME TIMES IT CAN BE VERY DIFFICULT TO ADJUST TO THE RIGHT DOSE. TWITCH IS ADORABLE AND WOULD KEEP BY OTHER PIN CUSHION CRITTERS COMPANY.

We will pray for your Step-father! You might want to announce prayer request on my DH's site called http://www.journalsoffaith.org/forum/

Please enter me into the give-away, he is a cutie and will keep me company as I stitch.

So sorry to hear about your dear "Poppy", my Mother was on coumadin before she passed awqay and she got really severe nose bleends from coumadin (prolonged use). They had to cauterize her nose and give her blood because she had lost so much. Pretty scary time I recall. Anyway, I would love to adopt "Twitch"...he would make a great companion for my spuirrel "Charlie". If you are interest in a cross stitch giveaway, please check out my blog so you can enter. have a wonderful day Lori!!!

Lori,
Please knw my heart goes out to you and your family as Poppy struggles with the effects of dealing with coumadin. My beloved 87-year-old mother is on it and I live 300 miles away and worry constantly about the quality of the health care system. May Poppy soon be home with his loving family.

Twitch is one of the most adorable pin cushions I have ever seen. He would have an honored place in my home.

Blessings.
