Friday Contest

 I was not able to log into Blogger last week, so I was not able to post.  But everything seems to be working now, so let's have a contest!

I will give one person their choice of any pdf pattern on my site, bellacrochet.com. I will select the winner at random, and send out the pattern on Monday morning (I will be out of town this weekend, so the contest will run a little longer than usual.) I will post the name of the winner here, so be sure to check back on Monday morning to see if you won. 
Also, if you post anonymously, please be sure I have a way to identify you (at least give your first name or a nick name in your comment; I have no way of knowing who is posting.)
To enter, just leave a comment answering this question:
Are you crocheting any gifts for Christmas this year, and if so, what are they?
This contest is now closed. Please come back next Friday to enter my weekly contest.

i always make something unusual for my mum - not found anything yet tho so keeping my eyes peeled for that pattern that is a little unusual.
i am making a doily using the Bruge technique in Christmas colors for a special friend, have mad a lapghan for my nan, she had a stroke a couple of months ago and has only just gone back home so thought she would like one for when she is sitting in her chair. i am sure i will make lots more stuff for friends and family

This is going to be a gift for my mother. It is a unusual in the fact that the shape is Oval instead of square, rectangle, circular.

I make a lovely home made version of Bailey's Irish Cream for some of my very special friends at Christmas. I crochet Santa ornaments to hang on the bottle. I also make stuffed snowmen for some of the children we know and love.

I know I will crochet ornaments to give to my children's teachers. I've been doing that for the past several years. They put so much time and effort into teaching my children which is why I love to take the time to make them something special :)

Our family has gotten so large, we don't exchange gifts anymore. We just get together and have a food feast. If I did crochet for gifts, it would be doilies.

Oh where to start. I have already made a table runner and I have been designing a snowman kitchen set for a friend, my daughter wants a new scarf, then shhhh the kids are both getting something cool for Christmas that will need a case to cozy up in when they are not using them. Who knows what else is in the works.

Hi Ann,
Well on Friday I finished my first ever afgan with matching pillow for my daughter for Christmas. Whew...I'm I glad it's done. I love how it turned out. Earlier this year I made two pillows (filet crochet with thread)a kitty and a butterfly for my little grand daughters along with purses for each of them. I want to make them some wrist warmers and maybe bracelets too. So yep.. my hook has been smokin' :) All while remodeling a little house we purchased earlier this year. I think the crochet was my therapy at the end of a long work day.
Love your blog and "Happy Autumn" to you, penny x

yes, I have a few things in the old hopper for gifts. Currently working on a Crinoline Lady. I have made a few of the crochet cottages you have for sale...and have given those as gifts as well...and have mine displayed on my fridge..I also made a gingerbread one for the holidays to display...It is such a cute pattern. Try to move the hook every day.... it is good therapy...
