Hi there everyone, I just wanted to share a competition with you all - a Christmas charity raffle.

There are £125 worth of gorgeous sewing goodies up for grabs and tickets are just £2 with all monies donated to the Kids Out charity.

This charity supports vulnerable and disadvantaged children in the UK who have fled domestic abuse. We have raised over £600 so far, which will go a really long way to bringing some light to these children's lives.

You can find full details of the prize, the charity and how to enter here:

Good luck and have a wonderful Christmas.

Hi Manuela, thank you for welcoming me. I'm sorry I didn't realise you have to introduce yourself.

My name is Lucy and I am an avid sewist who loves dressmaking with an interest in machine embroidery. I am forever in search of the perfect fit and after 3 years of making my own clothes I am getting closer and closer with each project (I hope!)

I am connected to the business, but I am not interested in promoting the business on here. The only reason I shared the post was because I thought your members might want to enter the competition. It is a great prize for anyone who is into sewing and is for a fantastic cause.

The Sewing Directory, the 'Sewcialists' and the 'Foldline' plus a number of high profile bloggers were very keen to share the information with their followers and there has been a lot of interest. I'm sorry if it doesn't fit the bill on here I thought it was perfect for the competition section.

I look forward to engaging in the other conversations too so I really hope I haven't upset anyone!

Manuela

Thanks Manuela, I haven't worked out how to add a signature yet, but will add my blog link to it when I do. The link I shared about the raffle is actually to a blog post on my blog also.

Well I have plenty of photos of makes to share with you guys so that is good news! I'm actually supposed to be photographing two of my latest makes today so I will try and share them with you on here.

Nice to meet you, Lucy.
