Qld Flood Appeal Raffle: autographed copy of Handmade Living, pencil roll & fabric + giveaway

RAFFLE NOW CLOSED, thank you for your amazing generocity & entries, the lucky winner of the raffle is #96 Anna from TillyTom & Sew!Busy!Mama! blogs, Congratulations!!
The sweet winner of the fabric giveaway-thanks-for-entering-runner-up-prize is #45 Bronwyn from Whippet Good blog.  All you had to do was leave a comment & follow, i had to draw this one 5 times as the first 5 people weren't followers of the blog, bad luck.  All the better for my new follower Bronwyn!!  Enjoy ladies, thanks again for kindness, we raised $775 for the Qld Flood Appeal on this blog alone, yippee!!
Greetings all,
Welcome to the Qld Flood Appeal Raffle at the Posie blog . . . my husband lives in Brisbane so this is my little way to help out with fundraising & letting the people in Qld know they're in my thoughts, all the way from Canberra. My God Mother & her husband have lost their fencing business in Brisbane, water is over the roof of the sheds, all the vehicles are gone & they are expecting 3m more of flood water. They employ half a dozen men who won't be able to work for a long time, people have lost their family income too!!
So . . . up for raffle is this autographed copy of Handmade Living (signed by the author, founder & illustrator) along with a pencil roll from one of the dozen projects i have in the book, 8 fat quarters of Amy Butler fabric + i'll toss in a bunch of crafty goodies too.
An inspirational book filled with How To projects from cooking with chocolate to applique.
Autographed by author Tania McCartney, founder Julie Nichols & illustrator . . . Brisbane's own Tina Snerling.  Hi Tina, thinking of you!!
I'm a major contributor to this book, that's me in the orange top!!
Oh, look at these Amy Butler fabrics, just the inspiration for projects in the book, like my fabric fortune cookies??
Or perhaps my fabric vase cuffs, non??
Thank you to Toni from Make it Perfect blog for coordinating this - more auctions & raffles listed there too.
Simple rules, remember this is for charity, the value of this prize is over $150!! 
Donate $5 for one ticket at the official flood appeal website & leave your receipt number with your comment entry (please be honest & do not use the same receipt number at other raffle sites, we will cross reference the numbers) . . .
raffle is open worldwide, i'll throw in free shipping . . .

raffle open NOW until MIDDAY Wednesday 26th January 2011.
The lucky winner will be contacted by email on Thursday 27th. Good luck!!

If you want to enter my auction too, check out the previous post for a handmade patchwork quilt made from stunning Japanese printed fabrics.  
It's a g i v e a w a y too . . .every single raffle ticket entry will go in the draw to win 4 Japanese Fat Quarters of fabric too, like a runner's up prize, remember to follow this blog too.
Thank you for participating & happy generous raffle ticket buying!! Love Posie
EDIT: yes that date has been extended so those of you busy with auctions, once they end, you can enter raffles too to spread the love & spend any out-bid-auction-money!!

  15. Receipt no.3155981 That is a really lovely and generous prize. Sorry to hear about your family. So many stories of tragedy and loss. We almost feel guilty that we live just a couple of suburbs away from devastation, yet remain untouched. Our biggest inconvenience is empty supermarket shelves. I heard on the radio this afternoon that there was a massive cheer when the army arrived in Ipswich today, so I hope that makes you feel a little better about your husband leaving early. It cannot be easy being an army wife.
